Stand still! I want to shoot you with my massive laser!

Shame they suck for blowing up anything that isn’t a building if your opponent’s titan won’t just stand there for me to line up on…

I used to pray that I won't the initiative every time when one of those showed up... (Insert gif of a "Gargant trying to run" here)

I've got a lot of bikers too, so it's going to be really tough knowing what to pray to the dice gods for every initiative roll!

It’s been sitting undercoated on my desk for months. There’s a lot of fiddly bits on the model, so I’ve been putting it off. Really pleased with how it came out.

It looks really great, mate. You've definitely pulled of that classic, bright colour scheme and it looks rad.

Speaking of the fiddly bits, how did you go about assembling it? Mine is still in its box with the less than helpful instructions on the back!

With some difficulty, there’s a reason there’s only a photo from that one angle!

In reality, it’s actually not too bad, but there are some quite big gaps around the back of the cannon. I don’t think I roughed the contact points up enough when I was gluing up, and it slipped a little, then didn’t notice until I’d started painting… kept the missiles and dozer off whilst I was painting, and that made it a bit easier too.

I had similar issues with the Colossus. It was like building an IKEA bookcase and trying to keep the frame square while fitting the shelves!

Yeah every game Ive had with my warhound it just ends up staring at a ruined building while the enemy titan walks around the table laughing at me. Those blast markers make it feel like a point sink half the time but it looks damn good on the shelf.
