Terrain and Scenery - Wrecked Warhound Titan #1

Hello All, thanks for dropping by. The only good use of a 3D printed Titan in my book is as a wreck terrain piece. I am an avid fan of Forge World and do my best to support their continued production of Titans - 7 Mars Warhounds so far, and 3 Lucius, plus Warbringers, Reavers and Warlords... anyway, even with my collection I am not mad enough to make a wrecked one from a FW model! (Warhounds are £457.50 without Arms at time of posting), so to have a cool terrain piece I sought out an alternative.

A poor Mortis Legio Warhound, as my most common adversary at Titan Walks has been Drake_Seta's or Winters Warhammer's Mortis Engines. I added a big skull icon from the bits box plus two FW skulls for the arm mounts. 

The Plasma Blastgun is out of scale and a lot fatter than the genuine article and overall the 3D print is nowhere near as detailed as the resin FW kits, but as a terrain piece its ideal for a quick and dirty paint job as wrecked titan. The magnetic coils of the Plasma Blastgun are powered down from my usual blue glow pulse designs to the copper mag-coils un-energised.

The head is at an acute angle, neck-broken as the Titan face-dived into the mud after losing a leg from a well aimed loyalist shot!

I added the neck cables as trailing cables beneath the titan, one powering the Vulcan Mega Bolter, and...

... the other detached underneath the torso to the head.

The detached leg I chose to do separate from the main base as the leg mass was quite heavy and would mean the unsupported severed leg would bend the fibreboard/hardboard base. It also means you can make the terrain more spread out and tell a story - and more practical for using the terrain on a 40K battle if wanted.

I snapped off some of the knee gear and pistons to show the damage from the killing blow

And here is the proud Scion who downed the Engine, a Cerastus Knight Lancer of Legio Astorum ;)

Cheers, Siph (25pts - Warhound but simpler)
