Ahh, it feels good to complete such a momentous task within a month. Here it is, my Legio Gryphonnicus Warhound Titan. It was christened this afternoon as the Fortis Venator, or "Brave Hunter."

WIP thread link.

Now, I'll be honest and say it's not done to the level I want it done at, but that simply is because I don't have the skill or capability to do what I want. In time I'm sure I'll get to that point, but for now I declare it complete!

Enjoy

[Grimdarkness]

Very impressed.

[Wayward]

Im not very fond of that colour scheme, BUT there are some subtleties in your work that gave me second thoughts about light blue and yellow on Warhounds...

Such large models are never really finished, a myriad of details to add, but you already made great work on it! Congratulations on whats IMHO the most ambitious LPC I saw completed this year!

[Captain Semper]

OMG!!! THIS IS A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!! Doubly so considering the time limitations... Congratulations for this huge success mate!

Very nice! At first, only the on image of the shin guard loaded for me, so I was thinking you had come up with some new form of Warhound. But then the rest loaded, and I became in awe.

[Battle-Brother Ludovic]

Very nice And congrats on finishing your vow!

In the words of Darth Vader 'impressive, most impressive'. I really like the camera angles you got, especailly the last one.

Very impressive model Seahawk. Well done.

I really love the effect on the plasma blastgun. It really looks like the energy is oscillating down the coils, really love it!

[Seahawk]

Thanks everyone!

To be fair, it's actually grey and yellow for the color scheme, but I can see how it could look differently. I do plan on some pimped-out weathering, and I just found out that IA Model Masterclass 2 has a feature on a titan, so I'll be excited to get that in the mail and put tips to use. The first book already gave me tons of tips already; the more the merrier.

I saw the effect on the FW one and I really liked it. I'm happy it came across right!

Love this pic....the angle makes it look "real", if you see what I mean. A daunting sight for anyone on the other side!

I must admit, I thought it was blue as well, but I do like the colours regardless

Yellow is a bugger to paint well, and I prefer the more "muted" yellow, than the "Oh My God! My Retinas!" shade that I've seen on Marine Armour, much less on a Titan.

Great work on this. I doubt I'd have worked out how to assemble the feet in a month to be honest!

[LostBritain]

Lovely airbrushing. God I love Titans.

i don't know why but i have the urge to fine my copy of mechwarrior 4 for some unknown reason

thank you for your efforts SiR seahawk

[dizzy-xc]

Be proud. Your warhound rocks like Meatloaf.

[Kierdale]

Outstanding work!

As others have said, that last picture is particularly awesome.

[jugglingrobot]

Very nice sir!

I approve very much.

[Honda]

Bravo!

The War Griffins are my favorite Titan Legion and you have done them a great honor. Congratulations on fulfilling your vow is such a spectacular manner.

Cheers,

[Seahawk]

Thank you, thank you gentle folks.

Agreed. The fairly neon green titan in the Apocalypse book is quite a turn off. When I was painting this yellow (Iyanden Darksun and Bleached Bone, btw), I actually thought it looked a bit too brown when I was going onto the parts that were primed in white, though it looked alright on the grey primed parts. In the end it's yellow enough for me.

I get the urge to pop in Mechassault to my xbox (s'all I have ) and stomp around in a Mad Cat.

The War Griffons has quickly become my favorite legion too, being one of the most decorated and now homeless. Makes for a neat back story, which I'm all about.

Since that last picture is so well-liked, I'm going to take more like that. For now though, you'll just have to settle with that one again, but now it looks like it's from the front lines :

Beautifully done Seahawk.

[Gunrunr]

Wow, what great work.

[Asdmodai Barok]

That looks amazing, I am very jealous, I keep holding myself back from buying a Warhound as I could never do it justice. Love the pict feed image, would not want to be seeing that on my screen.
