I always liked the Obliterator concepts put forth by the GW design staff, but think the execution of the minis is really poor. Both stock models look like they are crouching behind a bush taking a potty break.
I rate them an A- on concept and a D- on execution. I've seen some nice Oblits made from termies but it just didn't do it for me. I really like the massive frame of them in the original concept.
After seeing The Dark Apostle's (@B&C) Oblit that he stood upright ages ago, I knew I wanted to do the same thing. Then I wandered away from 40K for a while and my whole Chaos army sat collecting dust. As fortune would have it when I make my return to 40K just as TDA finished a tutorial for making upright Oblits. This was exactly the fuel I needed.
So here is the completed Obliterator!
He turned out much better than I thought he would when I started this conversion.

very 90s photography!
i like the small head in particular, shows of how really bulky and imposing these jugganauts are supposed to be.
Love it, nice one!

Very nice. I'd like to see an Obliterator with tracks instead of legs.

Nice! I'll enjoy reading your WIP. If it;s not too difficult I might give it a go. I have three obliterators unassembled at home.

The most difficult part is the hacksawing the legs off. I should have the WIP pics of the second Oblit up by next weekend.
