Yesterday, the folks at NOT Failcast released an image on their Facebook that has Titan fans aflutter - it's a late-80's era Reaver Titan! In an age where Games Workshop no longer service the Epic Community, I think it's fair game to make your own Epic 40K Titans, and this is a great one to choose. The Reaver Titan was the backbone of the original Epic game - sure there were bigger and faster, but the Reaver was THE Titan to have in your force. Forge World have of course produced one and an amazing 40K scale model too, but if you want to see the original - this is it! The Reaver originally came with 3 weapon arms, the idea is to put one on each side sponson, and one on top of the carapace. I hope NOT Failcast bring out an Epic 40K Warhound from this era too. That is a great little kit - so expressive, and so mean looking! Pretty please? With rumours of the return of Epic this year though, who knows if this will get to production, but one can only hope. In honour of this news I dug out my old Reaver Titan I painted in the 90s. Memories! |
Look how steady my hands were back then - all those icons were done freehand...
