WIP Titan, could need some help^^

[L0K!]

Hi^^Three years ago i started building a Titan.
Never finished it...
Now i found it in a dark corner of my room and thought i could start working on it in the holidays again.
And thats y i need some help... I need some ideas, what to do better on it and tips to create more and better details/weapons.

Here are some pics of what iv done so far (I know its not perfect but was fun building it and it deserves to be finished^^):

Hi,

Excellent model on whats been done so far - will look really good once its had a few details put on it to make it look less 'clinical'.

For what it's worth here are a few of my suggestions;
1. How about a couple of dome type windows on the body for the crew compartment?
2. I think the Hip joint need some armour over the joints. This would stop the model from looking spindly in those areas and provide valuable protection to a critical point.
3. The model needs more wires and cables from between the arms and the legs to the body itself. Those things would - Im presuming - need some form of pneumatics and power to assist in moving them.
4. Close off the top of the Feet 'boxes' by adding a milliput/green stuff sheath around all of those grey pipes. Possibly a moulded lower leg section around them.
5. The weapons on the model appear too 'clean' . Try adding a few more wires and nobs and bolts etc to them, weapons dont all have smooth lines as there are alway sighting units, fume extractor sheaths etc on them.

Just a few ideas.

you could always attempt to create more surfaces (in 3d design it is called faces) so that it is less boxy, maybe creating a more rounded model, bulking out the knees with some sort of knee guard would be neat, you could (for the sake of making it more space marine, add shoulder pads, which can be decorated with a phenomenal looking chapter marker. I am a HUGE fan of banners... make a massive one, like a dish towels size, with the most detailed painting you will ever do. Minimodeller is right about the guns, heck add more guns, TONNES of guns, kit it out!, make some platforms for people to stand on and shoot from (even maybe make special rules for that. also you could make the face look meaner, even make a scaled version of a space marine helmet?...

just some thoughts

Edit: Here is an illustration of what i am talking about, and i believe most of what minimodeller was talking about (warhound titan though...)
