Excellent work. I've always liked Praetorians ever since their first appearance in White Dwarf all those years ago. It's great to see them done in Epic scale.

Time for some updates.

I added 3 Shadowswords, 8 sentinels and 2 Warhounds,

Sgadiowswords and Sentinels are "original" GW with some funnels.

The Warhounds are also from Dystopian Wars and nearly as Big as the Emperor Titan.

I really like this army, very well done. I like how it all ties together nothing looks out of place, and those smokestacks on the shadowswords are a very nice touch.

How do the John Henrys compare in size to the Metzers? Would they make better Warhounds?

Everything looks ace, BTW!

John Henry is much smaller, but I do not like pose or model.

I find the Metzger model perfect:
- It fits the praetorians.
- It has the shape you'd expect from a steam punk titan.
- The pose is very fitting.

And wouldn't you expect a steam powered Warhound to be a bit larger than normal. Just imagine how many coal you need to power a Plasma Blastgun and keep the Warhound running for a day or two.

And by the way I can use it as an Warlord or Reaver and nobody will argue (as long as I do not use it as Warhound and Reaver in the same battle :) )

The Thunderbolts, Hydras and Objective Markers are new as in yesterday, the Stormtroopers, Valkyries, Marauders and Deathstrikes are older as in last two month.

I made new objective markers to make them fit in better. Redoing the Hdyras was triggered by the advent of the Flak models.
The Thunderbolds are Dystopian Wars Russian flyers upside down, with a pilot added.
When I did the Stormtroopers I thought they had a save of 4+. So they look better armored than they really are.
The Valkyries are the long ones with the big rotors. I can just image them hovering above wit a deep and deliberate whop whop whop - ropes dangling below with storm troopers descending onto the battlefield.
The Marauders are represented by the Flying Boats. I'll probably add a Lascannon at some time to create a stronger link to the Marauder theme - or not.
The Deathstrikes are two models combined and look big enough to inflict the damage they are supposed to dish out.
