    The base looks good. It ties in a Titan with the idea of Titan Guard and shows the rare amount of humanity left in the Skitarii warriors. I'm definitely itching to see how it all comes out when painted, especially the base.

    Basing has always been my favorite. I loved the idea of doing a massive scale base for a Titan, and wanted to tie in a bit of humanity to the defenders of the imperium. Next I'm working on the textures and battle damage.

      You expect the cold an impassive out of the Mechanicus' servants. Nothing but logic and cold efficiency. It's easy to forget that the Skitarii are granted a very mild measure of their own thoughts and humanity when a Tech Priest isn't controlling them directly. You've done well to show that they still have that small shred. It brings a human element to what would otherwise be a man-machine killing machine.

      Where is the "survivor" as you termed it, from? Definitely metal, but not a model I recognize. Plans to add anything like strewn out body parts or crushed corpses?

      Oh I'm already ripping up guardsmen and cultist models. The metal girl is from hasslefreeminiatures.com. called Billie the hunted if I remember.

      Humanity? No, they just can't let good source material for servitors go to waste!
