Thought I'd create a new topic for this as it's not really related to my TOEG knights.

I have the legs, torso and carapace of a Mark II "milk float" Warlord (the other bits have gone into other models). Despite being quite detailed, this model has a very boring, static pose (example here), so I thought I'd try giving it a more dynamic pose by twisting and bending the legs.

I also raided my bits box, giving it a close combat head and a pair of Exodus Wars Edenite Reaper turrets as Vulcan Mega Bolters on the carapace. I'm still not sure what I'll be mounting on the right arm.

The new pose means that the feet are no longer flat on the base, so I built up a pile of rubble using pieces of cork to create a stable platform for the front foot. The rear foot is pinned to the base.

Having raided my bits box, I finally selected a Melta Cannon for right arm weapon.

The Melta Cannon is fairly plain, but the version creator for the Forge World Reaver Titan looks rather cool, so I thought I'd have a go at improving the stock version.



Apart from the arm, which I made from plastic rods of various sizes, there are three new additions. First is the piping on the back - this is from the arm of a 40K scale Necron Destroyer (the arm is discarded when you upgrade to a Heavy Destroyer). Second, I've added the muzzles from a Necron Immortal's Gauss Blaster to the front of the gun.

Finally, the underslung piping and housing is from the powerfist of a Space Marine Terminator.

Here's the Melta Cannon, attached to the main body of the Titan:

Fantastic use of bitz and conversions. I love it when conversions are applied in a way that makes them look natural. It is hard to picture the Melta Cannon without those bitz. Great posing, too. Not too exaggerated, but still looking as if it was in motion.

Very nice chap! Good use of Reapers.

Here it is finished.



Here’s the completed Mk II Warlord “Milk Float” titan I mentioned previously. The right arm weapon is the improved Melta Cannon.

Fantastic.
The milk float is my favourite titan

I really like your arm conversions, they look ace.
The turrets on top fit really well also.

The MK II is my favorite warlord as well.
I was looking at my friend's MK III, and you can really see where they took design cues from this version.
