So today I began to concentrate on the "wonky" areas of the titan, the bits that maby dont fit together too well. The thing about building models like this is that you have to constantly rethink what you are doing and typically adapt how you are going to make the structure. One of the ways in which I did this was to fill all of the "wonky" areas with household filler and then use a series of tools and sanding equipment to smooth the surface down to an acceptable level. You can see from the images below that it goes on very rough but after some sanding it comes up with quite a clean solid surface to work from.
Would look good as a Nurgle Titan...hmm now there's an idea!
Once I had cretaed a strong surface to work from I decided to see how well the plasticard panels would fit onto my newly strengthened structure. As you can see the panels look really good very sraight and true. They still neede a bit of filling to make them look sharp but luckily the excess came of really easily and left no marks.
Next step is to clad the whole model and start thinking about details. I think i'm going to cast some sections from various models to use over again. Time to start looking though the bits box.
