What’s better than a drop pod? A drop pod with a laser!

Although the new Titanicus models are awesome, I was never quite fond of the Mars pattern. There was always a longing for the old school so-called beetleback titan. So…

After reading the excellent Titandeath by Guy Haley a few months ago, I began to think about dropships and how they could be incorporated at the AT18 scale. I decided to try my hand at a smallish dropship designed to deploy a pair of Warhound titans. I quickly put aside the thought of using 3d printing due to the size/cost, so went with laser cut mdf. After a few coats of paint, the result is not so bad. Behold the Zebulon-pattern Dropship!

I designed a custom head for the plastic GW Warhound kit to echo the feel of the Sinister Warlord Psi titan.

As a small experiment, I tried to build a Super-Heavy Tank at 8mm scale (whatever that means) with my k40 laser cutter and 3mm MDF. After a coat of paint the result is not so bad, and absolutely cheap if you already have the cutter.
