Hay RPF, I have not posted a build in a while, but I cannot resist this. I am in the planning stages of making a Titian. Probably the Atlas, I have made many other big builds, but a Titan offers it's own challenges. I am hopping to keep the weight down to 55 pounds or less. Going with a aluminum skeleton and EVA foam for the lower legs and thighs, with mix of materials for the torso and arms. Standing on sheetrock stilts. I will include remote hands and a PA system and my scale should be about 1:2. Right now I have been collecting images to work from. If anybody has some nice ones, copy's would be appreciated. My budget for building this baby should be about $1,500, but there is a WHOLE lot of surface area to cover. I hope you will feel free to offer constructive criticism and help me get this build RIGHT. I am also planning on the front of the torso open up in the same fashion as the bot does in the game. Other elements I must keep in mind, I must be able to break it down enough to ship it across the country by airplane. I must be able to both get in it solo and get out by myself. Finally, I also hope to build a super lightweight gun. Looking for recommendations on witch one to pick, hopefully with photos. I will be forced to add a shoulder strap to use the gun, since the leverage would prove insanely hard if I did not include one. (I am guessing end of barrel will be 7' from my shoulder). Sadly, due to weight constraints, I suspect I will not be able to make a chain gun that rotates...so that gun is less attractive, because who see's a chain gun and does not look to see if it rotates ? I hope you all will follow along and offer advice on how to improve on this Bot.
