Even if you haven't played it yourself, at one point or another, you have probably heard about the tabletop game Warhammer 40k. It is played with armies of miniature figurines, although some models can't really be called "miniatures" anymore...
Your average soldier in Warhammer 40k scale isn't very big, but the biggest of the Titans (a class of mechanized units) can be several feet tall! These Imperator Titans are quite literally walking castles, and dwarf all other units!
The look *really* cool, and are also *really* expensive (you already need a lot of money to even just assemble yourself a regular Warhammer 40k army...) and there are only a limited few of them around.
Sean, a.k.a. Armor Bimbo actually created one from scratch, being inspired after seeing a picture of the Leviathan Crusader from Dream Forge Games.
He allowed me to share it with you, and although it is untextured, you can get some pretty cool results: Shaun from Tanks and Trolls built some of Armor Bimbo's other models, like the Serenity spaceship and Mule vehicle (from the science fiction series Firefly) and the Paladin Knight (another, smaller Warhammer 40k Titan)
As you can see, you can get some pretty good (understatement of the century...) results if you put in a little work!
- download Warhammer 40k Leviathan Crusader (+Blockhead conversion)
- download Warhammer 40k Paladin Knight
- download Firefly "Serenity"
- download Firefly "Mule"
Have fun building!
(PS: I uploaded another clue to my secret project to my weblog; this time it's a lot harder to miss ;o)
