Outstanding - but isn't it quite large for a jackal? Most jackal species are fairly small canids (the Simien Jackal is wolf-size) . It is hard to say, I might be wrong...

Hey Sawbones originally I was going to use mastiff but that sounded big and not fast and agile like I wanted and Jackal was also used by a certain other company as a pattern name for a scout machine so I went with that.

This will be a pack hunter come raider unit built for speed. Size wise it's around the same mass as a certain OOP scout WE that we've all seen around these parts.

@LaCacty, well the design work is obviously done still to be payed for, printing a month at a guess, mould making and casting probably another month so i'd say late april early may but i'm just guessing it could be sooner or later. I'll consult with the man he may be able to give me a better idea.

Thanks for the interest and approval guys I have lots of ideas and suggestions for new additions so hopefully this will just be the first of a new batch of models for my own line.

Just after my birthday huh? Stop giving me ideas.

Congratulations on the really sweet design. I'm thinking it'll look even more excellent "in the flesh". It almost makes me sad that I have all my 'classic' titans. I mean, just one wouldn't hurt, right?

Thanks Doomkitten.

Well if your a gamer and not just a modeller come painter you can always do what i'm doing and use the different scale warengines for different armies/campaigns. For example at the moment my true scale WE's are being painted up and bases with my Vrakks and or Isstvan forces in mind but my old school titans are for my Armageddon campaign collection. So the two scales will never clash as they will never oppose each other on the tabletop.

That being said i've the notion to do some much larger crushers in the future which may change this idea for me at least.

This is the saddest looking war machine ever. I kinda want to give the poor guy a hug or something! Cheer up buddy, it might never happen!

^BWHAHAHAHAHHA^ #wining

I'm not really a fan of that head but to be fair, I never liked canine like heads to begin with. Since the heads are all swapable no big deal myself. Great chassis design and I'm STOKED to see the DiD range expand. I'm going to head over to Facebook land and post up some pictures.

I love all the canine heads. It's kinda like the logical extension of WWII nose art on fighters. Remember, the question is never, "why?", it's "Why not?"

No comments on the heads guys, no interest, or they will do nicely, let me know before I sign of on them.

Or are you all happy with the existing heads.
