true, thin plasticard is infintessimally better but I am short on funds, and the only place that i know of that sells plasticard does not sell thin plasticard or anything not textured or in tube form. Also I will be either doubling up the cardboard or putting plasticard overtop, but for now I must make do with what I have though i appreciate the suggestion

sidenote: i'm using superglue to glue it and it seems to work ok without bending and waving. yay!

Nobody near me sells it either, I have to order it in (and my on-line supplier is apparently out of stock)... so (thanks to Mina's suggestion) I'm going to chop-up some FOR SALE signs. Thin, cheap, & works with plastic glue (I think).

Uhh wow I said something useful. If these signs don't have to stand much pressure they will also stick with PVA-glue

some shots of my wip assault chosen. enjoy.



























c&c encouraged

These are the begginings of the feet.



These are gonna be the legs



and some wip shots of my titan body










c&c welcome and kinda needed.

nice looking marines!

as for the titan i love to insert badgers into my face help you i have zero experiance in building such a thing, i can and ill be a cheerleader for the project....although a bloated spotty one

looking good so far, and I'll looking forward to see how your titan turns out!

ok, so i'll be taking moto's suggestion of using signs. Thank you moto i'll be using my dad's signs that he used for electoral type stuff. the party changed it's name so it's all good, the signs are all useless now (due to the name change). So i'll be glueing this stuff over the thin cardboard, although it is corrugated so i will need to tear it apart i'm thinking. Good idea? Bad? suggestions? Tear it apart? Yes? No?

your call! you 'ave to do it and spend time on that

OK, so, um, the signs can't really be torn apart, it's all one piece, i add it and the titan will look all bulky, or bulkier than it is now, but it might not look so bad and it'll definately be strong, which is definately good. Now on to talking about the legs, i'm gonna get a bunch of bottle caps and use those as the joints, i'll have to cover the joins and whatnot with green stuff, or use the signs in a creative way somehow. The feet are definately getting a signage job (sounds kinda sexual, HAHA), what i think i'm gonna do is glue what i have for the feet to some signy bits, then glue more sprue bits to make a better frame for the feet, because if I try to glue something more onto it ass it is it's just gonna fall apart. Then i have to figure out how I'm going to make the inferno cannon, but that'll be just a bunch of plasticard tubes glued to a sign.


Phill it would be awesome if you would be my cheerleader, thanks, i'll send you the uniform once we figure it out, i'm thinkin something with a mini skirt but thats just me, any ideas Phill?

So whats the full concept of the Titan? Is it going to be more mechanical versus organic..? Looks pretty interesting so far, love to insert badgers into my face wait to see more progress. Oh and those are some pretty swell looking chosen ones.

..funny, but unlike mabs, i do NOT look good in a skirt...a sack maybe

well, alright, a sack it is then, but don't say I didn't offer a skirt.

so, i know you all want to see this sooooo....





and here is when i added the legs.


@phantom: the titan is going to have to have some organic bits, mainly to make up for my mistakes but also because it's chaos, it just feels right, you know?

c&c is as always welcome, and encouraged.

Well warpy its a bit hard to give you C&C at the moment as its still at the very early stages but if it helps:

*give me a "W" give me a "A" give me a "some of my socks have unfortunately been infested by hairy gnome bikers" give me a "P" give me a "Y" what do you get?

WARPY WARPY WAAARRRRPPPPPPYYYYYYYYYY!*

GO WARPY
