It's a Golden Daemon entry converted up from several Hammerhead kits.

The most amazing Titan, I Commend the person who created such a thing. If GW actually pays attention, they might just make Tau Titans that look suspesciously like Gundams

Thing is, that is a heavy walker at best. NOT a Titan. That suit still has things that Titans do not, or at least I would assume it does. First and foremost, its size and frame allow for rapid insertion. I'm guessing it wouldn't be much bigger than a Hammerhead when laying flat or locked down in a "transport" mode. Secondly, it still looks like it can be refitted in the field, whereas Titans are only "refitted" maybe once a century, if even that. The thought of having extra Titan weapons laying around seems ridiculous and borderline heretical.

Imperial Titans can retrofitted in the field. Reavers and Warhounds have undergone such treatments during the Vraks campaign when weapon systems were destroyed, either through enemy or continuous fire.

I can understand your annoyance, but please be polite when voicing your complaints, profanity laden replies such as these tends to scare people away.

well, they only have so many titans, and the weapons can get worn no matter the size. and this walker would be a perfect example of Tau Titans. if they, you know, maybe 10x the size and make it as deadly as the other titans (cept the orks, they got deadly, with all those guns on there) and plus more armor too. But the design should become a titan regardless, I mean look at it.

*sigh*
I'm done trying to convince you that a "Titan" as the other races have them is against the Tau methodology.

It's a kitbash, not an official model. The Tau don't use massive robots, instead they rely on the Manta and other flyers for their super-heavy support and countering. The Tau structure their army around high-mobility and rapid insertion, something they can do with Crisis Suits, their skimmer tanks and the Manta, not with a giant robotic construct like the Imperium and certain alien races employ.
