    Blackadder's Imperator Titan Build

    Thanks for the reply. Yeah I'm finally feeling pretty good. Ouch! TWO tornadoes! The Wine was Sour: I've gone about as far with this as I can without correcting grievous mistakes I've tried to live with for the past year or so. If I am to complete this model the problems must be addressed...

    Blackadder's Imperator Titan Build

    Pardon My Dust, or What a Summer! It may have come as a complete shock to you all but I do have responsibilities regarding house maintenance that occasionally take precedence over my 40K pursuits. Long story short; my lovely lady friend managed to dislodge some tiles in the bathroom shower...

    Blackadder's Imperator Titan Build

    Found 'em; they're Sentinel pilots and dashboards... but I found Valkyrie pilots on Ebay which will do the trick and I can detail the cockpit interior in much the same manner as the Warlord here seen below as I copy a page from the Warlord thread... Then and Now: Back when I was young, i.e...

    Blackadder's Imperator Titan Build

    Ha! a subliminal proding that I have been delinquent in publishing an update. Actually I have been working on the 'head' in hopes to complete the interior. I have a question regarding the seated crew. I cannot remember where I obtained the two seated pilots for the cockpit (shown here in my...

    Blackadder's Imperator Titan Build

    The Superstructure towers in the rear needed to be raised in my estimation. Using the waffle lens material I made a structure that should do the trick. This is wonderful stuff to work with. It makes building bulky objects a simple task with no real measuring as the 1/2 inch squares are gnat's...

    Blackadder's Imperator Titan Build

    My VAB: Behold my new Vehicle Assembly Building Dedicated to the Emperor Titan in all it's iterations, I've grown tired of this thing toppling when fully assembled. The VAB has an open space floor to fourth level ceiling of just over 51 inches 130 centimeters.

    Blackadder's Imperator Titan Build

    Are You Ready For This: One of the first things I built for this Titan was the Plasma Cannon. Quite possibly the coolest weapon conceived by GW/FW and I chose this for my Emperor Titan. Of course I had no idea how big to make it and it has been one of my main concerns whether it was too big...

    Blackadder's Imperator Titan Build

    First Time Together This Year: Toppling damage has been repaired. Blackadder is on the mend. All's right with the world and today is the first time I am putting this all together for a progress report. TADA! First I am finally confident I have solved the problem of the superstructure so here...

    I just went through my images on page 3 and 4 of this thread and all the photos are missing? What's the problem????

    Blackadder's Imperator Titan Build

    Wow, it has been some time since I worked on this project but over the past week I've finally felt well enough to rekindle my interest in completing this effort. As some have perceived I may have contracted the Corona virus but I couldn't be tested for sure as yet. Today I am going to be tested...

    Blackadder's Imperator Titan Build

    Now It Can Be Told: After a month hiatus where I spent the time duplicating the upper works previously accomplished I am approaching the point where the four bastions are ready to have the surface sheets applied. I took it on myself to spare my erstwhile readers the agony of enduring...

    Blackadder's Imperator Titan Build

    Flying Buttresses; Once again these seemingly simple constructs are labor intensive A box like structure seven times longer than it's wide and I need four of them. Even with the egg crate material and the resources of industrial quality styrene 0.040" (1,0 millimeter) sheets it's...

    Blackadder's Imperator Titan Build

    It's been a busy month and I'm afraid the Emperor has taken a back seat compared to my other more pressing endeavors. I did manage to cobble together the rear bastions of the superstructure which are virtually carbon copies of the front components. My grandiose idea of a kit bash citadel has...

    Corner turrets and the intermediate pointy things are basically done. Next up, the Citadel base.

    Moment of Truth This is going to be Interesting. I've learned a lot building this model. It's the largest project I've ever tackled and I've had to innovate a lot of new techniques.It's been a year and a half since I made the first pair of turrets. These new turrets so far are put the old...

    Blackadder's Imperator Titan Build

    Thanks for the replies. You know, on reviewing the image above I neglected to remark on the crudeness of the construction. When you are scratch building any model especially one as large as this Titan, you are bound to accumulate a large amount of scrap plastic. There is a lot of internal...
