I got back to getting some work done on this project. Horus Heresy stuff derailed it for a bit so chances of it getting finished by the end of the month are slim to none, but we'll see what we can do.
I got the last of the Death Dealer titans done.
It's a Warlord. I did it with a gatling cannon, lasers and a fist. I also have plasma for it to swap out either of the arm weapons.
This is it pre-basing. Basing it was a beast. I wanted to have a wrecked shipping container on the base with things floating out of it. It took three pours of resin to get it to the height I wanted. I think it turned out ok.
The whole thing is a bit of a monster in terms of weight. With the cut out for the base to get the storage container to fit the resin leaked through and so the whole bottom of the base is resin too.
I also started working on the table.
I got four 2x2 insulation pieces and started putting cut out bits of insulation foam on them.
I wanted there to be indentations in the sea floor as well as things coming out of it. I used a bit of plastic glue to melt some areas here and there.
The area is supposed to be shallow seas and I figured there would be some islands in all that so I've put some islands out there while the other side of the table has the beach for the only continent. That takes up 12" on the one side of the table. Rather than just making it a sloping beach I put in some coastal islands. They will have some industrial equipment on them.
There is the whole thing together with a titan on it for scale. I didn't have any bananas at the time. It is before I started to texture it.
Here is as far as I've gotten. I managed to get some texture down on 3 of the four pieces.
I'll get some appropriately coloured paints for the airbrush tomorrow and try to get the base coat on the whole thing on Tuesday. I have some desert texture from AK and will probably use that to add some extra details to the parts of the table that will be above water.
Eventually the whole thing is going to be coated in resin. I'm not going to go for a lot of depth, just a coating really to give it a feel of water. For one thing I'm not made of money, for another I don't want the pieces to weigh a ton.
I have some of the industrial terrain for titanicus and it is going to be situated on there in various places. I'm going to have a look to see if I can find a model of a freight carrier and have that capsized somewhere on the table with the storage containers floating around in the water.
After that I still need to do one Lysanda titan and get some pictures of the 2nd Reaver I did for them.
