Martox Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 Ave fraters. Whilst I think the new Ironclad kit looks great for the most part, I could not stand the look of the seismic hammer as standard. Wanting an Ironclad for my tournament army, I decided I best convert one that I think is suitable of the title. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v289/Martox/ironclad.jpg Other problems came with the shooty weapons, since I made the hands straight on, the fingers blocked the storm bolter and the hammer got in the way of the melta gun. Silly me. So, I underslung them, forgeworld style. The Iron Snake, my test model for the army, is there for scale purposes. C&C most welcome. Cheers.

turelhim vampire Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 Excellent work - much better than the stock model. One tiny gripe is that the hammer head is a little too big - but that is only my opinion. If you like it that size then I cannot find fault with that model :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hubernator Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 Nah, that hammer is the right size, it just needs some spikes on the faces so it really can smash :o Nice work on that, simple yet very effective and straight to the point :) Dreadnought Smash!

Iron Phoenix Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 Looks good! although I agree about the hammer, and I wonder whether the description doesn't better suit itself to a piston-driven mechanism than a swinging bashing piece. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lotsa_terminators Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 Pleeeeeeeeeeease paint it green with purple legs :( Seriously though, cool concept, I'm doing something similar with a giant plasticard sword for my BT Dread. However, that hammer needs bling, spikes and such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FuriousFerret Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 This is a very interesting concept, though I, too, think the description of the seismic hammer lends it more to a pneumatic jackhammer thing. Also, perhaps the hammer head is a bit too large? it seems unwieldy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
