40K scale Emperor Battle Titan.... again

Yes i know... i thought i'd get this out of the way first!



Version 1 started out as a warlord that I then converted.  However, i didn't build it all that well and as a result the hips broke transporting it to a game.
Also the scale was a bit wrong... I'm all for massive models, but it was big (too big)

So... version 2 is needed.

Scale is important now!

I'm going to basing the scale of the Emperor on the GW Emperor Titan Rules PDF
(https://www.games-workshop.com/MEDIA_CustomProductCatalog/m2440056_Imperial_Datasheet_-_Emperor_Battle_Titan.pdf)

This clearly shows that a warhound titan comes up to it's knees... approximately...


You can also see that this scale was honored at Epic Scale 

This is also a nice scale reference for a lot of superheavy walkers

Therefore... we need to use the current ForgeWorld Warhound Titan as a reference point

Direct from the FW site

By my reckoning... an Emperor is about 3.5 times the height of a warhound


Therefore... my new Emperor should stand 10.5x3" = 31.5" (250mmx3=750mm)

Well to make things easy.. i'm aiming for 36" give or take a bit..

More to come on this
