Right……… RIGHT!! This behemo….. bohmoe……. bloody big fecker of a model is actually still being worked on beleive it or not!! And a lot has been done. really!! There is a digusting amount to still do…… but there has been progress dammit!!

So here we go – progress on ‘The Dying of The Light’ Warhound Titan from the least amount of work done to the most!!

Legs n Feet. Posed, built and pinned........ that is all!!

Greaves/Shin plates. Marble done......... nowt else! Yes, I know there are 3. The fourth of the four plates you get was a trial piece for ..... stuff.

Dirty great big twin laser shooty all the damn space wolves gun thingy - Metals are done, marble is done and the trim is blacked in. Magnetised for attachment to the shoulder as well.

Head canopy plate - marble and block colour done. Base metals also done. Need to think of a freehand design for that blank area..........

Now we are getting somewhere!!! Marble and stripes done. Starting to see progress!!

The main body’s top canopy carapace plate. Marble and panel done and freehand too!! Oh the progress!!!!

Finally to the pieces I’m currently working on. The plasma shooty blaster cannon gun, the cockplate and two thigh plates. These have had their marble done, base metals, trim metals and even some freehand. The marble has been sealed with satin varnish as the next step is something I’ve never done before – Oil washing.

The marble effect was done with airbrush and is therefore thinner and more fragile than brushed on paint. Remember that 4th shin plate I mentioned – well when i tested oil wash removal on that plate, it lifted some of the marble effect so being extra careful this time around.

Fingers crossed it all goes well and doesnt arse up all the work I’ve done so far!!
