Crushed Crates
Hey there #WarhammerCommunity, I'm trying to make some basing for my titan and I need opinions. I 3d-printed these and then placed a sledgehammer on top before heating to simulate a crushed effect under the tread of the titan. Does it work or should I go for more?

I think if thats the case, it may be helpful to try and get the shape of the titans foot as a more clearly defined imprint in the center of the crushed area across all the crates. But as it is it is mostly fine for "this was crushed by something" and you can repurpose it later for other stories too.

The size of the foot is making that difficult, so I pivoted to just "general crushiness" but I still want it to visually translate.
I understand. Im not saying the whole outline of the foot should be present, just something that can pass as a partial print, if I am explaining correctly. Overall it is fine as it is, as perhaps the foot print can be more defined with paint, or more dirt or wear on the place where the foot contacted the crate.
