I picked up a Mk4 Warlord for a mere £3 on ebay (though just now i mised 3 revenant titans for just £20; could have sold one too...:-() as it was buggered with paint and missing bits; needless to say i had a damned fine idea what to do with it:

With Taccomm's down with my Custodian Titan Conversion i PLay!*

Carapace, head, bell


Twin Linked Plasma Cannon!


Wrecking Ball!!


Construction Step 1

Just need to give it some rocket pods in the turbolaser slots and to create a suitable 'Custodian themed' piece of leg armour on the front stepping leg before painting can begin.  Would also like to add a couple of FW chimera turrets as Carapace Mounted Multilasers but that can come at a later date.  
Back to LatD in the meantime...

I think the paint job will make or break this piece. Right now it looks like a jumbled, chaotic mass. If you can keep the paint job simple I think it will come out looking really nice.

I think it looks great! Nice composition MoK and I like how yours has much more movement than the standard Warlord - good to see you can do that with one, as the static pose is one thing that puts me off the current version of the model. I particularly like seeing that nice old Warlord head given a great new home too (though is that a mould line you've missed running down the middle of it's head?).

Twin-linked plasma cannon count as plasma destructor by any chance? Or are you making up your own stats for it? Having seen this and the Warlord converted with a plasma destructor arm in the Epic UK I definitely prefer the look of your way.

Only (small) thing I'm not entirely sure on is the rimmed skull bits on the top of the arch poles, skull icons that size just look a little too big in epic scale IMO and also with it being a Custodian and a symbol of Imperial authority I reckon it might look better with a pair of imperial eagle icons if you have/can get some, something along the lines of:

or possibly

Just a thought, looks great at the moment anyway.

Best, Glyn

You may well be right Glyn' i think i'll order those bits soon :-)

KEV; Nah, chaos not finished yet but on track; got a few solid evenings planned out before the 25th as well as at least 1 whole saturday and part of a sunday painting so that should put me in good stead.  Have you any suprises in the paint department for us this time? Looking forward to seeing what people have been up to this time round!

MAL: He'll propably go in a the same camo scheme as my guard; urban grey and dark green camo. Nice and simple but with clearly defined technical bits etc.  Although i am tempted to try something a little different with him; simple titans of old kind of knghtly colour schemes but i don't know how well that will work personally; anyone with any suggestions?

"For whom the bell tolls" comes to mind.  I like it!

Strongly clever conversion.

Coming along nicely. And a great idea for a Custodian conversion for sure.

I tend to agree tha the skulls look a bit large. Personally I find the bell mount a bit too tall overall. If you shortened the bell chain by a few links you could make the tower a bit lower. I really like the small gothic arched vents, but they do add that extra 1 cm. A bit of surgery could solve the problem but of course you should go for whatever you think looks better

The plasma cannon is great as well. Makes me want to go back and adjust my own Lucius warlords a bit (again...)

Ohhhh, neat!

I forgot - what did the devotional bell actually do?

Devotional bell just ads inspring these days it would seem; i'm modelling it so as the titan can be used as a custodian with nasty demon destroying powers (no carapace weapons) or just an inspiring titan with full weapons payload.

Progress today:




Note change of statues on top of the bell plinths and addition of carapace multilasers. Titan has also gained a name; you are looking the the 'Imperial Justice' :-)
