Hey Dakka!

I recently designed this gangly fellow (60mm tall - 32mm scale). It's my take on a Man of Iron, sculpted by me in Fimo the old-fashioned way (hands, clay, eye strain). My idea was that this could be a Man of Iron found buried or lurking in the depths of the underhive, or perhaps it's some kind of experimental (and no doubt 'abominable') Mechanicum robot...

It's with Zealot Miniatures for casting right now and I'm open for pre-orders. I will be getting plenty of copies back from the caster in the New Year.

GBP19 + shipping (base not included - will require a 50mm base). I've included a scale shot with GW Sister of Battle.

Any questions, fire away! Drop me a message anytime if you're interested. ?

Cheers!

It reminds me of the white mechs at the end of NGE that all get brutally smashed up.

Oh man, that scene...

This looks really cool. Are those muscle looking parts actually organic? It's a very different look from UR-025, who (I think) is also a Man of Iron. Love your take, though.

I am happy with this comparison.

Cheers! They could be organic, or perhaps they are cybernetic muscle fibres... Who knows, no one has managed to get close enough to ask the question.

Yeah, I 'suspect' UR-025 is a Man of Iron, but I like how it pretends to be a regular automata. "Why is this doctrina wafer not working?" said the adept just before coming to a sticky end...

I'm interested, but can't see any pics?

Thanks! Hmmm, not sure why it won't let you see the pics. Here's the link to my Artstation where you should be able to see them. Failing that, I'm on FB and Insta if you want either of those links?

Feel free to message me here anytime - I'm taking pre-orders via message.

Cheers!
