I've been pushing dots around my screen quietly for several weeks have have come up with a design that I'm calling the War Stalker.

Pic 1 - War Stalker with Pincer Claw & Twin Gun


Pic 2 - War Stalker rear view


Pic 3 - War Stalker with Pincer Claw & Chaingun


Pic 4 - War Stalker with Pincer Claw & Flame Thrower


It's standing on a base with a diameter of 40mm.

I was thinking of casting them in metal.


Bearing in mind that it's still WIP, would people be interested in picking up any?

I was thinking of also designing a missile launcher arm. Perhaps some other arms; suggestions?

Missile pods are always welcome. I like plasma and nuclear emitters as well!

And sorry I suck, 40mm base means nothing to me; Mind putting one of your little dudes next to it?

Here is my War Stalker next to a 28mm guy, a 10mm guy, and a 6mm guy.

It's a little under 30mm to the eyeline.

Holy cow! That is beautiful (in a menacing way). I would def. Buy several of those. Would be nice to get them with weapon variants

One note though: the torso looks quite thin. Could you bulk it up a little? Same with the "thighs". It looks like the legs could snap in a strong wind.

Broader chest also gives the possibility to add some weapons / insignia etc.

Love the concept!

I'd say keep the legs as are but add an armor plate on the front of the thighs (like the old beetle back warlord lower legs)
Agree that a little more bulk in the chest area is in order.

digging where this is going!

Really liking this, could easily be used to represent all sorts of models in different systems

As regards arms. I'd like to see a brutal looking chain saw/fist type arm and perhaps instead of missile pods an arm with exposed missiles built around a central axis. Oh and what about a shield, shields make models look badass.

depends on the price, but it's cool they could be either epic knights or 40k mechanicus terminators or some such

I like it as it is without bulking it up.
As for weapons i vote for a bigger caliber heavy weapon with either a single or double barrrel.

Nice designs on these! I probably wouldn’t pick them up myself though, I already have an army of epic knights which would be my potential use to proxy these for and knights are low down the list of armies I want to do anyway. Couple of suggestions on the models though:

The twin-gun looks a bit stubby and puny compared to the others, perhaps the barrels could extend further outwards and also be slightly bigger?

Perhaps you could you also print one with an open pincer claw for better variety in a unit? It would make it easy rather than tricky to pose one grabbing and crushing some poor unfortunate or tank or whatever.

I like the look and thickness of the legs, but the body looks a bit off. I'd suggest leaving what you have there as is, but adding another curved armour plate piece covering the front side of it.

I also like to see a proper knee joint if possible, at the moment it dosen't look as if it can actually articulate.
