My next project is a creation of my own imagination! A Imperial Battle Droid. Ill build it in 40K scale as its easier.
"fluff" The origin of the Battle Droid stems from the Imperium Matainace Droid, which are used on Imperial BattleShips to carry out major repairs without having to dock at a space port. These droids have been in service for over a millennium and have seen little change in their design. Standing about 35 feet tall and equaly as wide the Droid is one of the largest un-manned units. Its complex A.I programing enabling it to perform demanding tasks and simple problem solving.
Some of these units were converted and tested as fighting units. Their performace was quite impressives. Few were made however due to there complexitiy and even few remain in service today.
Eres a pic of my idea so far. Wat u reakon?

Sorry, Kr00za, but it would work for Star Wars Imperium, not the Warhammer 40 000 Imperium. Firstly, looks not gothic enough and too highly advanced, second the Imperials have something against creating machines that do not have soul - hence why Servitors exist.

Hmm you may have a good point about its looks. Maybe it looks more Necro then Imperial.
Im using parts of this model....

I want to make mine with 8 legs though.
My design uses this thing from the NeoGeo game Last Resort.
This is just on idea of many I have.
My other main idea is just to add the extra legs.. beef it up and use it as a Space Marine walking tank.

You can always try to "imperialize" the model, if you are patient enough to sculpt extras from greenstuff.
