so little more progress, ankle joint is done, just got to add 5 supporting pistons, but then its on to the lower leg, but before that happens ill get this prepped for painting lol - this part is one of the more complex areas of the kit, many of the other parts while somewhat involved are that...

get better soon matey - you know there are easier ways to get time off right? seriously tho, take care and hope all goes well :toast:

knowing how my youngest liked his 40k minis painted, it would definitely be battle worn lol

looking awesome so far - id love to see some nose art on that thing lol :cool:

cheers - ill be using acrylics, probably Army painter range but not sure yet. The main colour will be red, my youngest used to have an army called the 'Blood Angels' who dressed in red armour/red vehicles etc. Ill also be doing icons for some of his favourite bands (he loved metal like Iron...

not something you hear very often lol :biggrin:

im still here, fighting my way through a mountain of card and glue lol :biggrin: believe it or not im still working on the feet, getting a cpl hours in a day to work away at them they are slowly coming along. This is very much going to be a build & paint by sections job, as once it starts going...

well, i wouldnt like to get under them (with the size theyre supposed to be) lol:skull

so im currently working on the toes - there are 4 on each foot, the front 3 having pistons that would aid in moving them - when it comes to making the pistons (which are tiny) im thinking of using cocktail stick/straws/cake (lollipop) sticks as the tiny size of some of the rods will be a bit of...

wow....these are awesome, youve found a great forum here!

luckily enough i did exactly that, and it seemed to work. I think this is one of those builds where Ill learn quite a few techniques that i havent yet, and maybe come up with a couple too lol, its definitely one slow and technical build that im sure you could go daft greeblying on. This will be...

so heres the first bit so far......starting with part 1 Starting at the bottom (literally) with the feet - the first part to build is the centre section (01) that the toes and ankle joint will attach to. The sheet is 2 lots of the same parts, Ive cut out one side but the other is still yet to...

yep, that i DO do, but unfortunately on the part i was cutting (a ring for an ankle socket) it frayed as i was scoring round the part. I use a very sharp craft knife for my cutting and was scoring round carefully as i didnt want to tear/crease the board but during the score/cuts a small area...

in general do you use specific thicknesses of card? currently i buy mine from amazon in packs of 100 A4 sheets, from 160 gsm to 220 gsm. I know some people use what ever card they have to hand but i did wonder if when laminating sheets together do you laminate until you reach the desired...

hey up all just your friendly question asker here :biggrin: (coming from a complete newbie point of view) what process dyou guys use to laminate your card to increase thickness? Ive got various gsm thickness of card that i (atm) essentially layer together to increase the thickness of a part -...

hoping so lol, taking this one v e r y slowly lol As for the model, the resin version of this kit measures around 10.5 inches high, depending how you pose it (this titan is small to medium on the scale of these machines - its classed as a scout titan) I chose this one to do first as its the...

thanks ill check those out :toast:

well, here goes nothing.....gulp the rather large model that is Bhaads Warhammer 40k Warhound Titan. This build is going to take a while, so ill be doing it amongst other builds over time. The model is 29 pages of very detailed parts and instructions. Alongside this ive looked into some build...

hey guys this might be a bit of a ramble, but bare with me here. Id firstly like to say thankyou to the guys here, mainly @Rhaven Blaack and @ARMORMAN as without them, i may never have found out about this 'genre' of card kits and would never EVER have gotten to do something I wished to do for a...

these are deffo on the list, ive built a few galleons over the years but not a papercraft one....yet lol Once i finish up other builds i will definitely be trying one :cool:
