Here is my Chaos Reaver Titan made on the cheap from the old Warlord model and some various other bits.

Anything I should add? Does it need moar spikes or anything?

The close combat weapon looks good, what's it from?
Could maybe add something more to the launchers? as they still look a bit tau. Or, to make it more reaver-ish, only have one carapace weapon, mounted down the centre?

The close combat weapon is a 40k Chaos Terminator chain fist attached to the weird little arm that the beetleback comes with.

Good idea about the launchers. I'd like to keep the two of them where they are to cover up those weird holes in the carapace.

Trying to figure out what to do with the launchers to de-Tau them... hmmm...

Move the launchers to the centerline and then coverup the shoulder holes with some sort of chaos mutation?

Looks pretty good... Perhaps cut the star so it can curve with the carapace armor? Then fill in the cuts with putty. Another chaosification would be adding some horns popping through the shin and shoulder plates.

Jewelry chain, battle damage on the greaves to break up the large flat areas a little.

I'd slice the star in half and mount each half like a spine on the launchers (unless there's already something on top of them, can't see).

Or mount it on a central pole - it looks stuck on at the moment.

If you've any evil shoulderpads it might fit on the carapace above the head where the star is now.

Could fill the carapace holes with small BFG turrets, or a spike, and/or use the back set of holes for banners.

Thanks guys!

I ended up putting a bunch of spikes on his back. Two in the rear holes, two on top of the missile launchers and one in the middle of the carapce. It somehow evens the model out nicely and makes it feel complete.

Now that someone mentioned it, the chaos star does look kind of like a silly little hat on his head! Oh well. I've gone ahead and primed the thing, so it's too late. I'll post pics once it's painted up!

Thanks everyone

And here's the finished product! Sorry it's not a great pic, but, I think it turned out alright.
