So I may have blown my rather limited budget for the rest of the year...

Titans, both Ad-mech and Chaos, I can see how to do the weapons but I need suggestions for building the legs, feet and body. I do love the forgeworld miniatures, so capturing some of that style would be nice.

The nurgle reaver in my display picture/avatar was super sculpy over a wire armature, with the torso blocked out in plasticard and milliput. For nurlge titans you should be able to get away with sculpting blobs over an approximately titan shaped armature.

Indeed, for Hobyists, Nurgle is definitely the easiest to please of the four major chaos gods !

Green stuff for the green god !

Ha!! So funny. I have the beginnings of an "on the cheap" chaos titan in front of me now as I type. I've been rummaging through my bits trying to find something that will work as a torso. I've got the weapons. I've got some pretty cool legs from the 40k Forgefiend kit... just can't seem to put together a torso. I was thinking perhaps a Carnifex, Forgefiend or even a Talos torso could work, but I really don't want to spend the money.

Would love to hear ideas!

Slaanesh? Or other 3" action figures or dolls.

Also Khador jacks (or even other factions maybe) from WMH, though they're on the expensive side.
