Already planning my next effort. I'm gathering bogies for the tank treads. Of course it will be some time before I begin building on this project.

Lucius Patten Imperator Titan 'Invictus' So with the blurb ten months ago about my proposal to begin an Imperator Titan I kinda fell flat on my face. First, finishing up the Thunderhawk monopolized a good deal of my time and learning how to best incorporate lighting in said Thunderhawk and...

Blackadder Assembles a Decimator: Sometimes you just get tired of scratch building and need some escapism. I've had this little model kicking around in my "ToDo Cupboard" for a few years. http://i.imgur.com/eWkdD1A.jpg http://i.imgur.com/sQdKGmO.jpg http://i.imgur.com/EuBgxSq.jpg In...

Blackadder's Landkreuzer P500; Die Wühlmaus The Black Library of Caltroon: The Black Library of Caltroon mentions the 'Armories' carved out of the living rock in the mountains of Cardiff boarding the Tyne estuary. What little is known of the 'Armories' is there are numerous galleries that go...

Blackadder's Marauder Destroyer: A Kit WIP You know what the Blackadder needs, another project that's what............ Or the hole in his head examined. Well a few years ago I decided that its a toss up between me and the government who can spend my money more stupidly so if I'm...

Okay, never let it be said that sanity is one of The Blackadder's strong points. With so many projects half finished the last thing I need is to start something of this magnetude so here goes..... First we have to establish a working size for the beast, I know we've all seen these...

Dross into Gold: So what's Blackadder doing posting a painting thread; he doesn't know how to paint? Well I need a Space Marine army for my Thunderhawk and a Cadian army for my Tanks/Titans and Adeptus Mechanicus Priesthood Enclave again for the Titans so to show them off to their best so I...

Tyranid Cockroaches, Ewhhhhhh! Well here I am laid up with a immobile shoulder and my right arm in a sling and I tell you I am getting stir crazy. Books, TV, Internet surfing, No porn; right arm; remember............. Anyway visiting my 40K forums I stumble across this fantastic rendering...

Years ago when my son first acquainted me with the Warhammer phenomenon he showed me a catalog of the FW products. Having been in the Service I had an awe of the mechanized armour although even then I knew "A moving foxhole attracts the eye." Anyway I fell in love with the anachronistic...

Blackadder's Lucius Pattern Reaver Yes before anyone quips that I am crazy (but in a good way) let me acknowledge the fact. Anyway I have been posed the problem of designing (And building) armour for a FW Mars Pattern Reaver à la mode Lucius Pattern. And before you ask, "No I don't do...

I'm surprised I never posted my WIP T'hawk on this forum. First a little history: Long ago back when I was still building Lucie my son started building a Thunderhawk out of foam postrboard. T'hawks aren't my fav's by a long shot but I agreed to help him and he got a good start on it but boys...

Blackadder's FW Chaos Warhound Build I debated whether to append this to the Lucius scratchbuilt Warhound thread or start a new thread. There will be a side by side comparison of Lucie my scratchbuilt to the various components of an actual Forge World titan which should prove interesting and...

Blackadders Fully Articulated Warlord Titan ''Luteus Vexant'' Okay so here's the deal, I photo-shopped the image and made a static front view that prints out a model exactly 24 inches tall (On my printer using my editor's print graph I hasten to add). I'm satisfied that this is viable height...

I'm torn between offering this project as a WIP or as a "How to" article. Lucie is fully completed now and has been for the better part of a year. There are a few things I intend to add such as a full set of alternate weapons and a display base but the model itself is complete. I suppose the...
