Pic of said art...?

Best I can dig up, sorry for the gak quality:

Thanks - Nice!

Kind of reminiscent of a Knight or a Titan, depending on size.

I'm guessing Knight-sized though?

Khador Conquest was just announced moments ago

Baby! Now we're talking!

Saw that Khador model... Screamed Autobots roll out... Nothing happened and I got disappointed

D'awwww, come here you, you earned yourself a hug and a cookie.

Anything on the Menoth one?

Here's the Judicator's art, no model yet:

Nice

Rockets, Flamethrowers, burning scenery...

Definitely says "Menoth' for me

Excellent, thank you.

I like it... Although I would be a little curious to see how those spindly little legs hold up under the weight of the rest of the model.

It's probably fine with the large parts being resin.

Legs are metal, body is resin.

just going to go out on and say it... i like it.

yes i should have had more tenticles that would have made it better, but all in all i like it.

for the price tag...not so much.

got to say though the idea of a long range gun in cryx LOVE IT!!!

lets hope for something that beats everything else in range

c ant wait to see Asphyxious use this in a theme list. GO MY 12 KRAKENS OF DEATH GO as he rides his new undead horse (god i hope that doesnt happen)

So when do they "release the Kraken"?!?

I just wanted to be the first to say that...

Also the tentacles have uses as conversion fodder on Ad-mech models and even could be useful on kans, deff dreads or a meka-dread.

I REALLY like the Cryx model line, but this model sort of puts a sour taste in my mouth :(

That would be the necrotite.

Good, it's not just me. It's not a great match but it reminds me of this guy.

I don't get the hate for this model. It seems super dynamic and has lots of interesting detail. The only thing i would add is a second cannon next to the other one solely for symmetry.

I would say this model does not look like it would stand up to combat against any of the other ones.

My guess is model + price tag takes something people are only okay with
into the realm of hatred.

No problem. But as no Privateer press news&rumour poster reads Privateer Press threads by others, it was posted again:

I mostly like the Kraken, except for the back... it looks pretty ridiculous. Nothing a bit of modelling putty won't fix.

I do think the name does not fit the model. Or perhaps the model doesn't fit the name. It doesn't scream "Kraken" to me. Doesn't even whisper it.

Well, the Leviathan isn't particularly large(or sea monstery), but I don't see people complaining about that. It's simply part of the naming convention Cryx does with their Amphibious Jacks.

I wonder what a suitable alternative would be?

Still, a monster of that size with those two tentacles alone could do what
the legendary krakens did, which is fight a whale and/or pull down a ship.

I'm with Aduro on this, I would add at least 2 more tentacles to bring the total number of limbs up to 8.

Whoa! Thanks Alf, I actually quite like that! (At least from this angle)

I'm a fan. I actually hated it at first, but after hearing "Runs on Meat", much more interesting.

The whole tick/flea look was off putting at first, but seeing as it is the oldest Generation 2 Collosal in the IK, I could see how it doesn't resemble modern jacks.

Aesthetically, more tentacles could be better. Gameplay = more attacks, less balance. I see the reasoning behind it.
