I’ve done it with my knight, but this would be hilarious. Not quite as ridiculous as it sounds, one of the core functions of vehicle camo was to protect it from high altitude bombers, so in theory even a warlord titan would still be a speck below the enemy its intended to work against. A larger, more dakkary speck, but it might fool a lazy pilot not using their 41st millennium targeting systems?

I admire the engineering effort you put into construcion ("assembly" doesn't cut it anymore) of this monster of a model. By the end I think your kids will be able to ride it onto glorious combat.

We're so close to it being done, he has both arms, the head and now it's legs. All that left is it's torso and to paint it, And guy I can't wait to see the end after year of work

I just recently finished my first two models partially inspired by you Guy. So thanks for getting me on the path of this rabbit hole of a hobby!

Amazing, it's also my head-canon that the Titan managed to sneak up on the Hammerhead so it could stomp it.

I very much approve of the solid structural engineering going on here. I wouldn't have thought of just screwing it, but now I see it, yes, great idea. Fun fact about carbon fibre rods: they also make great cores for latex larp swords. But then larp is a whole other expensive hobby rabbit hole and time sink....

I cant wait to see it painted, amazing content guy keep it up

If I ever landed my own Warlord, I'd go for Legio Praesagius, specifically Auric Pegasus in its final moments, crushed traitor reaver titan in its fist, the last standing warlord from the nine that marched out Ithraca in order to buy time for the rest of the Legio to scatter when Legio Infernus turned their guns on their unsuspecting allies. But that's 30k lore. Your best bet is to hit the lore pages and find a Legio that appeals to your sensibilities, either colour scheme wise or lore wise.

This brings back so much nostalgia, these type of vids are so vital for getting people into the frame of mind that they could build one of these. A great resource for knowledge on the subject.

Loved this, thank you. Inspiring in a dangerous “I’m saving for a warlord now” kind of way. And smashing up the tau tank made me smile

No white scars. I feel like that'd be funny and ironic for the "i am speed" group

Having recently finished the AT version, amazing to see the volume of identical components scaled down, and then the places they have simplified for scale (eg pistons). As for schemes Solaria and Ignatum are both striking loyalist schemes

It never gets any crazier seeing how big a Warlord is. Imperial Knights are already huge, bigger than anything I'm comfortable building and painting, but seeing that only come up to the KNEE of the titan is insane!

So hyped for more titan content. Awesome basing. The carbon rods are very interesting, never heard of them being used for something like this. Looking forward to the next video. Keep up the good work.

The Manta serving dish burn was excellent!

OMFG!! Good luck with that build. Just thinking how long it took me to build my Warhound titan 10 years ago makes me get chills. And this is even bigger!!

I would love to see small attachable covers for the Hammerhead of other enemies to fit whichever faction it's up against!

Hey, I saw you used gorilla glue in this. One thing I found that was oddly neat looking was using your coffee ground trick with gorilla glue. one thing that happened only sometimes, which itself was weird, was that it foamed up huge! I thought those bases were lost, but I used a small hobby saw to cut them in half and found it made this awesome nurgle-looking, like, burst pustule thing! I really recommend trying to do it, but I only have a vague idea how it dose that though, sense only about 4 in 10 of the bases did that.

@LordButtersI

Thinking about what could cause the "only sometimes" 4/10 issue: Water content? I don't know much about Gorilla Glue, but I do know that a lot of chemical reactions only happen when there's a certain minimum threshold of water available.

as a tau player, had to get a good chuckle out of the base idea of a hammerhead being crushed. that was a clever idea, and adds so much charm to the titan as it is. keep it up Guy

I've always loved the Legio Defensor color scheme. White and green contrasting black and gold, it looks really sharp!

Because they try to work resin as if it's easily mass manufactured via speed and resin is just too delicate of a material to be pumping out outside of very small pieces.

Even though I just painted my first war hammer and well. It looks… god awful. Everyone in this community gives me hope of the things I might be able to paint. Painting a space marine or tryranid. And actually feeling like I can show it off on a shelf mmm. I won’t be embarrassed to show people my army. Real shit love the community.

That thing is never ever falling apart. Nice work.

This was super interesting and fun to watch. This is some real craftmanship!

I have been waiting to see more progress! I love this.

I’m so happy you decided to leave your full time career to bless us with your Warhammer. We are all so lucky for all you big time tubers because as you know growing up without it Warhammer was just different. Everything you and others share does so much for this hobby !

Looking forward to seeing the next build

I think the best paint job would be Lamenters, they're the perfect chapter to be running the most powerful unit in the game

I think that black armor with sky blue stripes and maybe a few snowflake decals would be amazing for this thing. Some snow collecting on the top of the titan would be epic!

Love this process and love the promise of what's to come! Your new studio looks pretty kickbutt!!!

I can't wait to see this thing finished and painted up.

Paint the armour brightest, purest white you can with NMM trims? That aside, I'm sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo envious of you getting to do all that, but most importantly affording it all. It's going to be a magnificent piece to display. Can't wait for more!

Great work and I love the use of carbon rods and hidden screws. I look forward to more and the workspace looks great.

It looks like a fantastic model. I love the idea of the titan assembly in individual videos. Keep up the awesome work.

That thing is going to be a beast. Its really fun to see all the massive builds going on right now.

I just got into warhammer and you helped me a lot I just want to say thanks :)

It's going to be extra satisfying seeing the end result knowing just how much went into the preparation and assembly of this beast. Such good content as always

Cant wait to see this all together... I've held off on watching them so I could have a little bit of gratification by watching more of it be built at once.. but I couldn't help myself lol... well done so far mate... that thing so beast! Maybe when it's done you can show us a few games where you use this in a live setting. 🤘🏻

Ever since I found this channel I’ve been obsessed with Warhammer. Thanks Midwinter

love that tidying away ending actually. very soothing!

so exciting! appreciate the thumbnail breakdown too :)

Hey Guy, just a future tip... gorilla glue has a clear non-foaming formula that is just as good as the original. That should help with cleanup on future parts of this build, or others like it. Keep up the awesome work

nice job so far bro. This vid shows how much of a pro you are down to the thank you's. As the Brits say"good show ol boy"
