Warhound Titan Ebay Find
I found this warhound titan, while trolling ebay for Eldar. Now, I already own one of these that has not been put together, so even partially built, this gives me a chance to practice building one of these guys and painting it before I tackle my pristine one. I had not taken into account how terribly the legs had been glue-mangled or gluangled(TM). I tried to remove the super glue, trying nail polish remover, super glue de-bonder, and even simple green. No dice. The good news is that the previous owner left the armor plates and the main body alone, so those will be a lot of fun to paint. I foresee a lot of mud and grime on the legs.
I am really looking forward to painting this. Now what Titan legion should this guy come from?

Fire Wasps - nobody does them any more.
ReplyDeleteThey are the all red ones right? Do you know of a better resource than http://wh40k.lexicanum.com ? I've been trying to find color plates in Imperial Armor books, but have found relatively little.
ReplyDeleteNice piece, Drathmere! It's good that you managed to remove the excess super glue, though I can see that it was a hard process. In case you'll have to put all the Titan's pieces again, make sure that you use a high-quality adhesive. Through this, you can be assured that it can't be detached easily. :)
