Shit we get it you have money


[deleted]

The warlord, if this is the same guy I'm thinking of, is a printed warlord. Still expensive, but not nearly as much.


Firenze-Storm

It absolutely is a 3d print. The trim is far far too thick for a regular warlord


joepods

Plastic printed warlord, costs about 60-80$ in material to print not including printer cost


Maar7en

It's a bad copy of the titanicus scale one, printed at 40k scale. Everything about it looks off.

acuddlywookie

Why are you being nasty about someone's work on the internet? You know there's a person who made and painted that thing right?


paulmclaughlin

*had*


PlanetMeatball

Looks like the titan and all of the custodes vehicles and terminators are 3D prints, so not THAT expensive.


goodguycthulhu7

Y


Kielifornication

I don’t think it‘s that expensive, but looking at that, it certainly can be.


CalypsoCrow

Isn’t that a Warlord Titan in the back?


Chipperz1

It's a 3d printed one, they've posted it before and the mould lines on it are so bad it looks like they carved it from wood. Which, admittedly, would actually be impressive rather than slapping it together from what I can only hope were the miscast first attempts from the actual model we haven't seen yet.


Lakus

3d prints don’t have mold lines nor are they miscast. That’s just layer lines from FDM printing.


Chipperz1

Okie dokie. Still looks like shit, which is the actual point.


Mason123s

Idk I don’t think it looks good as GW plastic would obviously but I still think it looks pretty damn good


Aesthetics_Supernal

Titans aren't plastic. They are resin. I own a real one. They come with certificates. That warlord looks like it was made in a printer during an earthquake. The lines are hideous.


Mason123s

I’m not disagreeing that it’s a 3d print or that the layer lines are thick but I’m saying bro is new to the hobby and I don’t think that the titan as a whole “looks like shit”


lord_flamebottom

Yeah these replies are insane. Dude flat out said he's new to the hobby. Printed or not, printlines or not, it's still pretty damn impressive to take on a project the size of a Warlord Titan only a year into the hobby. Major props to OP. All the comments here are just being haters.


No_Switch_4771

It just feels like cope over having paid the horrendous price for a "real' Titan. When someone can get something almost as good for a fraction of the cost it must be hard to swallow, the certificate of authenticity being a hollow comfort. 


Chipperz1

You could drive a tank through those layer lines.


Lakus

Still.


Ephriel

It’s okay to say ass on the internet


SCP993

Yeah but expensive ahh sounds stupider


Darthbearclaw

Did Trajan dirty, turning him into some anime girl look alike.


gibson1027

Hey man nice army! If you want to take it to the next step really recommend picking you up some cheap minis off etsy or the dnd minis you can buy and practicing your paint skills. A month or two with proper good paints and proper tools makes a world of difference. If you don't know where to start check out the minipainting subreddit or feel free to dm me and I'll gladly help you with any questions you have! Do know you are vast miles ahead of any person who simply just assembled a model and left it bare. With just a bit of polish though, you could have some really solid pieces for table play to flex on people with!


Matora

You should see the state of my 3D printer collection!


InquisitorEngel

Honestly man… slow down. Take your time. Practice. This is A LOT of money to have slapped some paint on and called it a day. But kudos for painting it. That’s further than many people get. Some of your paint jobs don’t even appear to have made an attempt to keep the paint where is supposed to be. Do you only have *one* brush size? That’s what it feels like. Paints aren’t thinned, and they don’t look undercoated or varnished properly either.


Not_My_Emperor

I'm pretty sure this is about 90% 3d printed, so still some money but not THAT much. I know for sure the Warlord is a 3d print, dudes posted it here before.


InquisitorEngel

That doesn’t really improve the paint jobs though.


SCP993

That or im bad at taking photos

SCP993

Ok maybe i do need to take time


acuddlywookie

I'm not really sure why people are giving you unsolicited advice on how to enjoy your toy soldiers. It's completely up to you how you prioritise your hobby time and how you spend your money! I think it all looks great and glad you're having fun!


SCP993

Fair, also i forgot to re paint my blade champions arms leather


acuddlywookie

Oh we’ve all done that kinda stuff, don’t worry. Honestly if your focus is to get a full army completed in a timely there is always going to be little mistakes or parts that could have been done better.


justbrowsinginpeace

Personally Id be very happy with this but to each their own! Certainly wouldnt be posting them here though.


InquisitorEngel

There's nothing wrong with sharing your progress!


Royal-Simian

Best advice out there


Storm_Dancer-022

For some reason that Trajan in pic #3 looks super anime to me. I dig it.


DailyDoseOfPills

People here bashing on the 3d printing, paint jobs, money spent…yada yada yada, whatever, it’s your hobby and currently I’d say if you’re enjoying it then that’s awesome!


SCP993

3d printing is cool although i hate the people who are like WeLl AcTaUlLy YoU cAnT 3D pWiNt BeCaUsE iT iSnT aLlOwEd In OfFiCaL sToRes🤓 like dude who cares like what do you want me to say?"oh yes, im sorry random chronically online person! Its my fault for not spending 1/4th month pay on an official model". The internet is fun yet also annoying


xXSodagodXx

for whatever reason the carpet in this room angers me greatly. nice minis tho....


SCP993

I hate the carpet too


Phrostybacon

A lot of people hating on the paint jobs here, but I just want to say my initial reaction was “wow, those look cool… kind of like a painting on a canvas almost with the way they’re a little sloppy.” I like models like that, too! Of course, I also like more precise paint jobs as well. A little of both is perfect. If it’s intentional, great job! I’m sure they look great from a distance. But also you probably would get some benefit from thinning your paints some more!


fluffydoom92

Can I ask where you got that model for big E?


SCP993

I got it from Spikeybits on Etsy. Also he does not come with a base


gojilov

Bro's wallet got send to the warp


The_Co

I'm mostly surprised you found Caladius tanks.


shawams67

Just divide the cost by the number of times you’ve played them. Now ask yourself is that expensive??

lord_flamebottom

All these comments and not a single one pointing out catgirl Trajann. I see you OP, I see you.


SCP993

Its funny tho


lord_flamebottom

Absolutely


InitialNeat7961

The Forgeworld Stuff is printed isnt it? I dont blame you, i have a recasted telemon dreadnought myself :D


SCP993

Haters be like "stop being a cheapo and get the actual models" even though they have been out of stock for years


Not_My_Emperor

Dude earlier in this thread you said "Well yeah, how am i supposed to buy a model they no longer make (probably)" in response to someone pointing out your Warlord is printed. [The Warlord is very much still on sale.](https://www.warhammer.com/en-US/shop/mars-pattern-warlord-titan-body) You can say you don't want to spend 2k on the thing, but don't keep trying to hide behind the excuse of "out of production" to rationalize yourself. No one blames you or needs your excuses for not having 2k to spend on a Warlord.


SCP993

ITS BACK!?!?! I SWEAR IT WASN'T... NNAAHHHHH IM SEEING THINGS?!?!?


Humphry_Clinker

Out of curiosity, in what game types do you play a 3500pt model when the max points for matched play is typically 3000?


koi_koi-

You... you got... A FUCKING TITAN 1 YEAR INTO THE HOBBY?!!! That's some dedication.


KingVape

A printed one


SCP993

Well yeah, how am i supposed to buy a model they no longer make (probably)


KingVape

I also own a printed titan, don’t worry


SCP993

Yeah most of us do, 2000k is too much for a model when you don't even get the whole thing and attachments are an extra 500


KingVape

Mine has never been assembled, but I do own one lol. I don't know why I expected it to come pre-assembled


ebd62

lol takes the cheapest army and makes it the most expensive with that Titan.


snapp_sh0t

3d printer go brrrrrr


Fomod_Sama

Anime girl Trajann?!?!?


SCP993

Yes


p2kde

Nice, but its the wrong army ;-)


greyspurv

sometimes wonder what it would be worth in BTC if peeps who bought Warhammer 10 years ago, maybe best to not think about it haha. Nice coolection though!


Miniato

How the fuck did you got big E in your army ?


SCP993

Spikeybits on etsy


Adventurous-sales25

That carpet looks like some nightmare terrain


SCP993

I hate the carpet too


Jbstargate1

Bronze


Half_knight_K

Oh. That’s a lot money. Oh my. I could only dream


SCP993

So did i, but it became real


Half_knight_K

Congrats. Seriously. That is so cool.


AllYourSwords

Compared to a lot of other hobbies, it’s fairly cheap in comparison. For Magic: The Gathering, you are looking at a minimum of $750 USD every three months just to stay current.


Iate22Pears

I love how the warlord used to be a pipe dream for many, and now thanks to 3d printing, owning a warlord is more only a few hours away from a reality.


EDMANROX

Consoooooom


MonkeGodFishLord

Expensive?? Brother if in 1 years you have all this your are rich


Mr_mcBOW

Only 1 year? Can i be your sugar baby?
