I plan on using the Dropzone Commander Hades Super Heavy Walker as my Onager but since ive never actually seen an Onager IRL im not sure if its too big or not. It should be close but, like i said, idk. So if anyone knows that would be great.

There's your onager

Seriously though, although they are long enough the Hades doesn't really have enough height. Maybe put it on stilts?

Ok i was concerned mostly about the length, height can be dealt with by having walk on rocks and stuff. How tall is an Onager Dunecrawler anyway?

Hope these images will help get you an idea of the scale difference.



The back of the Hades stands a little taller than a PHR walker. A 28mm miniature is also a little higher than a PHR walker, making the Hades stand about as tall as a 28mm miniature (disregarding the tail). The Onager is about as tall as 2.5-3 28mm miniatures.
That makes the Hades rather tiny next to the Onager. Lenght should not be so much an issue (they are about the same lenghtwise), but height is. Even minus the legs, the Onager is already taller than the Hades. There is a huge gap between 10mm and 28mm scales.

Well then.......Im gonna need a lot of rubble....
