@@ironbomb6753 Yep, this is what many forget when they say "Oh, you have to buy a printer though, how is that saving money?" Like, you could buy a new printer for each Warlord and STILL save.
Sometimes the only way is to batter the wall down with sheer determination, sacrifice and refusing to be beaten. It's painful, its hard, it's necessary. Get a part that failed. Manually support it. Print it. Repeat until you succeed. Great vid!
Original sculpts let's gooo! The sheer amount of creativity and talent in the alternate/proxy sculpt scene is 100% worth celebrating. Looking forward to seeing a fully complete Kaliakos Anathema Construct! I'm gonna be making one too at some point but after that last titan I need a breather. The pain of repeat failures is all too relatable 😅 Good luck!
i know your pain just had to tear out an over worked LCD and rescue a resin covered printer this week you happen to have any exposure times for a mars 2 pro on the elegoo gray abs 2.0? im feeling ballsy
It's always hit or miss for me. Like there was this one guy who made true scale legs for my old OOP plague marine torsos and they f*cking slap. But on the other I see a great value skitarii hoplites from the makers cult and am kinda disappointed.
Hi Sam, Stick in there mate sometimes 3D printing can be really frustrating. I have picked up a habbit of "Quick Wins" when i'm getting frustrated or uninsprired with a project (Printing or painting). Take a step back. Print and paint something that has nothing to do with what your working on that is just for you and is fun and quick and then come back to. I get taht that doesn't work (or is practical) to everyone but it works for me and give me that little boost to get back into it.
You could try splitting the plate up and just printing a few pre-supported parts at a time. Could be that most of them are fine, and it's just a couple on that plate (or the way some of them are arranged together on the plate) that are causing an issue that's ruining everything. Also, if the failure is purely parts tearing off their supports, then before manually supporting or auto-supporting, I'd try just beefing up the tips of the existing pre-supports. And/or bumping exposure a little. That could be enough to give them the strength to hold on. They might leave behind more surface damage when you remove them, but personally I'd rather spend some time filing and sanding versus cleaning up repeated print fails.
Dont give up on your prints! It sucks but it's so worth it on the large scale. In terms of the solwyte warlord titan. I'm working on one myself. It's a pretty decent build. There are a few issues here and there that I've stumbled across but overall really good.
@@battlebrothersam so far I've only made the legs and there was a fitment issue with one of the hydraulic cylinder pieces. I let the creator know what I found and I believe she said she is updating the model. There is also some issues with the feet just not being very strong due to the design and the way they are supported but can easily fixed with additional supports of like armature wire or screws etc etc.
Don't give up!!!!! Can't wait to see this project completed. I'm printing a warhound titan right now. People that don't 3d print have no idea how much work is entailed. If you need help with supports, let me know. I can definitely give you a hand if needed.
Ah my dude take your time with it. Making sure it's done right is important but more importantly make sure you're not burning yourself out. You got this 👍
I'm happy to see that someone else had the amazing idea to do the same thing, I printed a warlord titan as my starting point. I planned on printing 4 warhound titans unfortunately do to work and lack of motivation I stopped. But after watching you're video you motivated and inspired me to finish it and print up a chaos titan army to go up against it. Not sure what chaos God to choose tho.
I recently started my own titan builds. Half done with the first warlord and I got another I wanna do after that. Super excited to see your finished project. Don't let the print fails get to you. I had a few times where I just had to reduce the over all items on the bed and then add supports by hand with the extra space. Generally speaking lychee has been very good to me with just auto supports before I feed the file to Chitu.
Love the videos! I printed a resin warlord psi titan last year and, if you're using the files that everyone uses for warlords, be aware that the torso and shoulders are DIFFICULT and you may need to sand or cut them to fit together well. If you're going to paint, do all the armor panels after you paint the body, as it gets hilariously difficult afterwards to put details on a 2' tall 12 kg model
Hang in there brother. I look forward to your videos every week to see what you make next. Then its off to see if I can produce the results myself. Working on Lost Ships at the moment. Wouldn't have pulled the trigger if it wasn't for your video. Best of luck in future prints.
Yes do all of the nights and support groups and whatnot, and also yes especially if you're going to be using Lauren's sculpts like Once in a Six side did. I'd love to see her get some love on RUclips.
Mate I have just got into Adeptus Titanicus, and its brilliant, talking to a guy in GW he said his frind ONLY runs squads of Knights, after a couple of games, I can see how you could literally overrun an enemy!
Keep on printing, you will get there. Heavy Supports are the way forward, but you still need to look at the orientation to make sure the suction isn't too much. The other thing is that if you haven't hollowed the body section then you will have a LOT of weight on the knee joints so consider pinning them. This is even more important with the Warlord, which is why some people use FDM for the legs and resin for the armour. I made a hole through them and inserted a metal rod. Finally, yes, to imperial knights.
Go big or go home!!! Lol It would be so awesome to see both the loyalist and chaos. Since I'm not the one with the project, I would totally love to see the full knight compliment along with the Titans. Whatever you choose I'll be more than happy!
Yes to knights! I’ve got 6 war dogs printed for my Chaos Knights army. Still working on the Abominant (plenty of fails in a row), and I’ve taken a bit of a break from it.
Don’t let the fails get you down boss. I’ve printed 3 warlords, 9 knights variants, and 15 armigers. I’ve had prints fail cause I let me print room get too cold. Lessons learned mang.
If you're suffering from support failure after multiple reworks of your supports, islands etc, try dropping the lift speed. Especially with these big prints. You already seem to have some ginormously dense supports on, dropping the lift speed will reduce the maximum peeling force when lifting by spreading the work over a longer time instead.
To your question posed around the 2m15sec yes you should print all the imperial titans as well it would be very interesting to see what you do with them
I've found over the years of printing that usually when I get repeated support failures it's because the tension in my FEP has become slack -- my rule is 3 failures in a row = new FEP and it's never failed.
I can't wait for the rest of the Solwyte studio war constructs to come out. I have used some of them for narrative games before. If you make them stupid strong it makes for a good casual game.
Welcome to the Legio my friend! Got mine printed at the beginning of the year. Highly reccomend jbkwik and cue tips for assembly. Havent needed to pin my warlord using that stuff. Good luck brother!
@battlebrothersam no problem! I have the same files for the reaver too, but I didn't have your problems printing the legs. I'm happy to supply them if necessary to help!
Would you be willing to do a video on assembling tips? Theres not much content on what glue is the best and how to make sure that flimsy assembled minis really stick together well. Is pinning a good idea? Will it break if I try? Do I sand the area first? Things like that would be extremely useful and appreciated.
@@battlebrothersam Awesome, thanks for the videos and glad you're growing. Im printing some Ironstriders and I can glue them together but Im really not confident they wont fall apart at a slight breeze. All your finished assembled models look very sturdy so Im looking forward to learning how you do it.
It would be awesome to see these! I would also like to see what you could do for Epic since they've announced that's coming out again and I'm interested in the smaller scale.
Oh, this looks amazing. I would love to do this myself, but I would have to either convert it for Blood Angels, I want a Death Company like Titan, or Chaos. I only have 1 Mars3P so this would take a few months for me. Good luck and hope it all bonds flush when constructing.
I would love to see the full maniple and hopefully the other variants including the chaos variant as massive chaos fan and the few images i got to see look great (time to go hunting). Keep your spirits up it will be well worth it 😊.
I am also having issues with my Mighty 8k not printing large prints. It's definitely my supports, but its very frustrating. I switched gears to a different project just to get my confidence back up. But I need to go back to that project as it was the reason for getting a resin printer...
Git 'er done! I wouldn't rush to do it and forego other projects, but definitely you should finish the entire army over time. Pretty sure buying the Jupiter and all necessary peripherals and resin to pri9nt a single Warlord is still cheaper than buying off of Forge World :D
I feel your pain, I had a file corruption which ended up in a giant solid block of resin, next job, I ran out of resin, now it’s out of stock in NZ and I have to switch resins and re slice everything with new settings!!! We do this for fun don’t we?
Personally, I never trust pre-supported models. Maybe I go a bit overboard with my own supports but I rarely have a failure. For models of this size, I would only ever use heavy supports. I'd let auto-support do the heavy lifting and then just check it over and add additional supports where needed. A full Titan maniple is definitely on my printing wish-list and I've got all the files for one, but there's a lot in the theoretical print-queue before I get to that. Good luck with yours!
this was the first one i was not interested in. I joined up and went for the patreon when you made the cadia stands no chance video. This while a cool "printing" video kind of left the hobby/painting/army making behind. Still gonna watch the next video ofcourse!
I vote for all the knights too 😈
You can never have too many.
Why isint your name about space puppies
@@battlebrothersam the terms and conditions said nothing about youtube 😂
Sam: if you print all of the Titans in the phalanx: I’ll spot you one bottle of resin just to see this project come to reality.
You should definitely finish this. Was considering printing the warlord titan myself and would love to see you do it too
Dang, even buying a printer to print a Warlord is cost effective!
@@ironbomb6753 Yep, this is what many forget when they say "Oh, you have to buy a printer though, how is that saving money?" Like, you could buy a new printer for each Warlord and STILL save.
I've always wanted to print a warlord since I got my mars 2 Pro I'm going to stockpile resin as soon as it comes in stock
It would be totally awesome to see all of the knights along side the titans that would be wicked!
I think ill have to do it
Absolutely, it would show the scale of titans better as a lot of players are familiar with knights.
Sometimes the only way is to batter the wall down with sheer determination, sacrifice and refusing to be beaten. It's painful, its hard, it's necessary. Get a part that failed. Manually support it. Print it. Repeat until you succeed. Great vid!
Well said brother! Thanks for the words of inspiration 😁
Original sculpts let's gooo! The sheer amount of creativity and talent in the alternate/proxy sculpt scene is 100% worth celebrating.

I believe in you!!! I’ve printed off a couple titans and it always has issues. Iron within brother!!!
IRON WITHIN IRON WITHOUT!
I want to see it finished! But also I absolutely understand how frustrating it is when a plate keeps failing. Stay strong brother
Thanks brother! 😁😁

I never trust auto supports, it might take time but go manual. Also don't over fill the print bed, break it up into smaller chunks
I'm gonna take the time and learn them properly
definitely worth finishing. at the very least, the journey will give you a bunch of videos to put out
That's very true!
Very cool.
I look forward to seeing the finished (and painted) legion.
Good Luck!!!
id vote yes on Knights as well! ..... also, remember to save your failed parts, turn that stuff into destroyed-Titan Themed Terrain pieces and sets!
Oh… Heck.. yea! Can’t wait to see the final product.
You and me both brother 😁😁
Buddy dont let a few failures get you down, youll get it and the following video you post will be the shit. Keep it up, youre an inspiration man
Thanks brother! What a great community 😁😁
You could try splitting the plate up and just printing a few pre-supported parts at a time. Could be that most of them are fine, and it's just a couple on that plate (or the way some of them are arranged together on the plate) that are causing an issue that's ruining everything.

WARRRRRLOOOOOOOOOOORRRRRRRDDDD! You got this! Had the same misprint issues for 3 DAYS! Try a rotating and moving the files around on the plate!

Those prints look super smooth
All of the knights!!!😁
Also the chaos alternative sounds like an awasome idea
Keep going Sam! Finish the project you got this man!

Thanks brother! The lost ships are so good
New patreon member here, gotta say, a great community and already "paid for itself".
Keep on going with this. I can't wait to see how you paint it up!
Would definitely like to see this project continue
Yes do all of the nights and support groups and whatnot, and also yes especially if you're going to be using Lauren's sculpts like Once in a Six side did. I'd love to see her get some love on RUclips.
The alternate sculpt for Chaos is a great Idea !
my very soul shattered when you talked about the 1st layer not even printing anything because that's happened to me a few times 😩
Mate I have just got into Adeptus Titanicus, and its brilliant, talking to a guy in GW he said his frind ONLY runs squads of Knights, after a couple of games, I can see how you could literally overrun an enemy!

Don’t let the fails get you down boss. I’ve printed 3 warlords, 9 knights variants, and 15 armigers. I’ve had prints fail cause I let me print room get too cold. Lessons learned mang.
It would be so awesome to see all the titans and knightsin a diorama standing across the battlefeld from the chaos titans! Keep fighting on brother
Always had difficulty finding a good reaver titan. Hopefully I will come across it one day. You came so close. Take a break and give it another go
You're a madman and I'm here for all of it !
If you're suffering from support failure after multiple reworks of your supports, islands etc, try dropping the lift speed. Especially with these big prints. You already seem to have some ginormously dense supports on, dropping the lift speed will reduce the maximum peeling force when lifting by spreading the work over a longer time instead.
I really want to see you complete this project!!!!
Love the ambition of this channel
Chaos alternates !!!! Also would love to see the knights added to the configuration
To your question posed around the 2m15sec yes you should print all the imperial titans as well it would be very interesting to see what you do with them
I would love to see you finish this project.
Id love to see the Titan finished off. Also some of the Solwyte Studio stuff looks awesome. I am looking at buying some of their files soon.
i think you should carry on the project
recently i've been having a lot of failed prints but im not gonna let it stop me from building my dream army
I've found over the years of printing that usually when I get repeated support failures it's because the tension in my FEP has become slack -- my rule is 3 failures in a row = new FEP and it's never failed.
All the knights!! Also you got this man, you must stay strong through failed prints the Emperor wills it!
I can't wait for the rest of the Solwyte studio war constructs to come out. I have used some of them for narrative games before. If you make them stupid strong it makes for a good casual game.
Just bare with it, the plate will eventually print right. Oh, and of course print the whole manipole including the knights
At some point I’m gonna do this as well. Also you should definitely print the knights as well.
Sam you absolute Champion! You legend! You catastrophic kicker of ass! Go! Go! Go!
I am intrigued by ALL THINGS CHAOS! I'm slowly working on a Kill Team of Noise Marines
Looks awesome
I vote for the knight. And yes you should go all the way down to the end of the titan maniple.
Do it do it do it do it do it do it do it!
No pressure. You're bonkers but it'll be cool.
Definitely continue!
Always yes to Chaos, and of course yes to the knights.
Do some lucius titans aswell, they look amazing and there's some stls for them on cults and other websites
Rest bit keep. On going! Maybe try supporting yourself. It is secretly easy of you tilt your models by 30 degrees in all directions.
Keep it up, I know it can be daunting at times.
Aw yeah I was excited for this one to come out :-)
There is only one choice in life CHAOS!!
Thats my vote ha
FOR CHAAAOOOSS!
Welcome to the Legio my friend! Got mine printed at the beginning of the year. Highly reccomend jbkwik and cue tips for assembly. Havent needed to pin my warlord using that stuff. Good luck brother!
Thanks for the tips brother!
@battlebrothersam no problem! I have the same files for the reaver too, but I didn't have your problems printing the legs. I'm happy to supply them if necessary to help!
I printed myself an entire warlord titan and i love that thing so much but it took so looooong
Ummm how long we talking brother 😅
For me years but thats cause i took periodic breaks and it was on a Mars 2 pro but with no like year long breaks probably 3-4 weeks
I always wanted a war hound titan. They are the best looking titan imo.
If you do an auction or giveaway or raffle of the knights, then yes you sure should do them and the armigers.
I definitely want to see the maniple with the knight house.
DO IT. also everyone join the Sam army.
Haha thanks brother
waaaarlord titaaaaan, everytime my friends and i speak about them we pronounce it like that haha, your titans will be looking great
Absolutely charge on !
I have to now! 😁
A full titan legion for sure!
Including the little knights? 😅
Hmm, why not? Yes do the chaos side as well!
A Titan Legion includes support vehicles ( knights ) to stop flanking and bum rushing Warlord
Keep going brother.
Definitely finish the Reaver and then do the Knights.
I printed one complete in fdm...it's still awesome
I feel you when stuff just won't work. Been having a hard time with my fdm where everything's going wrong. Resin wise, pretty ok
Fdm is hit and miss for me lately so I've just focused on resin
And once you have printed all of those.... Dont forget the warmaster titan. There are full scale files out there innthe void.
Would you be willing to do a video on assembling tips? Theres not much content on what glue is the best and how to make sure that flimsy assembled minis really stick together well. Is pinning a good idea? Will it break if I try? Do I sand the area first? Things like that would be extremely useful and appreciated.
Yeah I could definitely include those in future videos great idea brother!

Print it all! After all, if it's worth doing it's worth doing right.
I am also having issues with my Mighty 8k not printing large prints. It's definitely my supports, but its very frustrating. I switched gears to a different project just to get my confidence back up. But I need to go back to that project as it was the reason for getting a resin printer...
Yeah it's definitely the supports because I printed some different models after and they came out fine
I love these - keep going!!
Thanks brother!
Git 'er done! I wouldn't rush to do it and forego other projects, but definitely you should finish the entire army over time.
Pretty sure buying the Jupiter and all necessary peripherals and resin to pri9nt a single Warlord is still cheaper than buying off of Forge World :D
I feel your pain, I had a file corruption which ended up in a giant solid block of resin, next job, I ran out of resin, now it’s out of stock in NZ and I have to switch resins and re slice everything with new settings!!! We do this for fun don’t we?
Sam, the leviathan has been out for a week. Also print the alternative sculpts or no balls💀🦖
I know brother 😂 wish I had more time
Personally, I never trust pre-supported models. Maybe I go a bit overboard with my own supports but I rarely have a failure. For models of this size, I would only ever use heavy supports. I'd let auto-support do the heavy lifting and then just check it over and add additional supports where needed. A full Titan maniple is definitely on my printing wish-list and I've got all the files for one, but there's a lot in the theoretical print-queue before I get to that. Good luck with yours!
I've had to clear the print queue to do it and with all this encouragement I'm going to plow through and get it done
do you know where someone could get some titan files? please and thank you.
Never Give Up! Never Surrender!
this was the first one i was not interested in. I joined up and went for the patreon when you made the cadia stands no chance video. This while a cool "printing" video kind of left the hobby/painting/army making behind. Still gonna watch the next video ofcourse!
you got this!
ITS NOT A REAL LEGION WITHOUT ALL THE BOIS TOGETHER! DO IT!
I would love to see a printed titan legion!
I think the alternative titan sculpt is cool, but nothing really beats the original warlord titan sculpture
Chaos titan legion, let's fucking go!!!
Would love to see all the knights aswell
Twice!?! Let’s go!
I wouldn't get used to it 😂😂
