Hi everyone; this is my first proper post, so I thought I'd make it a good one.
This is my converted WHF giant into a necrofex colossus. You can read all the rules and lore in the Monstrous Arcanum book. I actually created the giant before reading about the NC so it's sheer co-incidence that it matches a monster in the book.

The N.C if you don't know is a collection of inanimate objects and corpses knitted together by wire, nails and other materials, then given life and form by necromatic magic. Essentially a giant zombie.
It must be bound with a necromancers soul and sometimes they will actually make themselves part of the contraption. If control is lost the machine will begin to tear itself apart with magic but not before killing and destroying anything it can.

This is the biggest fantasy conversion I've done so let me know what you think.

Here it is

[Thumb - Zombie Giant 010.JPG]
Zombie torsos have been stitched to it's belly to grab and tear at anyone who gets too close

[Thumb - Zombie Giant 011.JPG]
The right hand has been replaced with a zombie to grab and pull people into the spear jutting out it's mouth

[Thumb - Zombie Giant 013.JPG]
The creatures hand has rotted away but it can still use it's exposed wrist bone to impale victims

More zombies to grab and tear. Also arrows show people have tried unsuccessfully to bring the abomination down

Spare parts are dragged along by the ankles, and blades impaled through the feet ensure extra damage to kicks

I love all the zombies, looks as if they are trying to escape being ingested!

"Orkses never lost a battle. If we win we win, if we die we die fighting so it don't count. If we runs for it we don't die neither, cos we can come back for annuver go, see!"

I dig how in a setting where giant, muscled fungus men ride Mad Max cars and use their own teeth as currency, the concept of little engineering dudes with beards was considered a step too far down the aisle of silliness.

Look at the giant's right foot and possibly the left one too being impaled by blades. Yeesh and i thought stepping on legos was painful.
