WIP – 40K – Nurgle Titan Apocrypha. (the Plague Doctor) part_26

After a quick trip home for some unavoidable errands, I got the loose parts I had packed and forgot. All together now. Just missing the two bloatflies, a plume on the rigid incense burner of the arm, and the paint to go on the new parts… Then, removing it from the can, retouch the trim…

WIP – 40K – Nurgle Titan Apocrypha. (the Plague Doctor) part_15

I’ll try posting updates from my phone this next days… I took some pictures before packing all my stuff for some away-from-home hobby time… Two small suitcases full to the brim, some sprues in, and the Titan safely traveling on my missus lap… She’s a keeper! I attached the chains, did some battle-damage on the…

I needed to look at it passed it ass-face stage as soon as possible, so I rushed finishing the base-coat of the main colors of its carapace so I could start giving it the first wash… Not entirely practical, but psychologically needed. I applied one coat and a half of Agrax Earthshade, and after it…

WIP – 40K – Nurgle Titan Apocrypha. (the Plague Doctor) part_8

While letting the last greenstuff retouches dry, I had some time to think, so I decided to include some original Games Workshop Knight parts after all… So I made the horizontal banner shafts using first edition Warhammer knight lances… It made it totally Tournament ready. Ready to watch a tournament by my side on Youtube…

This was it… A last push, and things can be called ready to paint. Although my wife thought it was silly, since the thing was “already painted”… The missing day was “wasted” trying to model some fluffy chaos pointy rims on the edges of the panels… I couldn’t find any tutorial on the subject, so…

WIP – 40K – Nurgle Titan Apocrypha. (the Plague Doctor) part_5

No progress made on the weekend, but it was a productive monday. I have virtually no bit parts left that talk to me about either Nurgle, nor titan… I was sure I had nurglings left, but maybe not. So I tried sculpting some. Easier said than done… considering my experience and how damn small they…

WIP – 40K – Nurgle Titan Apocrypha. (the Plague Doctor) part_4

Some progress was made… even if it took things a step back in some areas. Comes with the improvised pàrt of the deal. I figured to make it more thematic with the usual “40K Titanicus engineering” the back of the caparace needed some sort of exhausts… In lore being vents for the fusion core reactors…

WIP – 40K – Nurgle Titan Apocrypha. (the Plague Doctor) part_3

Today I kept building the hip, adding some tubing, and an extra layer of “infected tissue”. The back-side got an extra panel. And the part that was originally Virus Unit‘s helmet kept remind in me in it’s details, to what most knights have in the upper carapace, looking like a porthole of sorts… So decided…

WIP – 40K – Nurgle Titan Apocrypha. (the Plague Doctor) part_2

Posting a third update for my army in a single day… Risking a “perils of the warp”, here… But it puts me on real-time, now… The tabard is also posable, by the way… It’s connected to what used to be the neck of the McFarlane’s Guardian Unit. I started adding some green stuff, today… The…
