Hey: Just soliciting ideas for eldar titan conversions. I was looking over the titan upgrades for the experience point system and noticed the mandi-blaster upgrade. It occurred to me that you could do aspect-themed conversions. I came up with these: Scorpion themed - add mandiblasters. Convert Power fist to chainfist (probably starting with a reaver fist would be easiest). Banshee - Replace faceplate on head with a 40K scale banshee mask. Make a glaive to hold in the power fist (like a 40K scale Executioner). Hawk - Fold holofield wings outward. Add feathers to the back of the head (like the Hawk exarch). Mount grenade packs on the outside of the thighs. Spider - I don't know about this one. I think you could replace a weapon with a 40K spinner, possibly mounting a pair like the Nightspinners. You could also replace the wings with a WS carapace, but I think it would work best if it was extended somewhat away from the body. DA, Dragon and Reapers work about the same, imho. Obviously, mounting a heat lance or 40K scale reaper launcher or shuriken cannon would be appropriate. You could modify the heads. The head with the large wing could easily be painted like a Dragon helmet and the smaller head could have a DA plume added to it. The faceplate could be replaced with the faceplate of a 40K DR. Shining spear - Titans won't work, but I could dig a Scorpion done up like one. I'm just uncertain how well it would work. So, any other ideas from the peanut gallery? |

So, no one on this board has thought of any Eldar titan conversions (outside of Signius' wing/arm transplant)? I find that stunning and unbelievable. |

I've never really been a big fan of the Eldar. THe only Titan conversion I've ever done with thier models hardly counts as a conversion at all. I called it the ranger class Scout titan, and was made by simply missing out parts on a Revenant: A (pretty poor - I made it 3 years ago!) article on them with details of the parts used can be found on Epic40K.com under the New units section. |

I must say that I haven't really considered it. Do the 40K parts fit straight on? If so, I may have a look at something. I have loads of 40K eldar stuff lying around. |

Hi! Nice paint job on the revenant Tuff! I'm not a big fan of the Eldar, but Neals ideas on doing "aspect" motiff sounds like the way to go. How about converting one to like a howling banshee and give a HUGE sword? Primarch |
