Hi Kit good to have someone here who know the stuff for sure  Seen in the light of recent events I do find it a little peculiarly you show up here right after we mention Zinge - you wouldn't by any chance be affiliated with any of the following organisations: NSA, CIA or MI-6?
Really looking forward to using your new servoarm - really an awesome piece.

Wel initially I thought this was going to be the Shockwave cannon for my myrmidon, but for some reason I just gotten another idea for that - which would fit better I think. That would mean this get an upgrade to Graviton cannon, which I think it look more like anyway. Meaning I think this looks more like something called Graviton cannon than something called Shockwave cannon.
This in turn will lead to a change in pattern/armament of my first Assault engine - however I should mean a faster birth of the second one. Yasis enough with the babbling.

that cannon arm has some really nice details...
and it really looks the part even tho you made it all up for the first time... so it actually is only able to look like it is...and not as it should as there is nothing out there to look like it should  ... but you made it look like there should be something out there to make it as if it looks like that  ... somehow I just twisted my mind a bit....

Well, definitely Ork Killer kan or Ork dreadnought parts, Catachan flame tanks, ork Bomber exhaust I think but could be wrong COD Lamp and a third party plasma cannon.
Not my best work but it's the best I can do

@ Manus - curses my cover is compromised! Shhh dont tell anyone
Thanks re servo arm it was a lot of fun to create - also - not done yet...
@ LDD and Vik i'm glad you treat all threads with the same respect you show mine
OT looks great Graviton for sure Shockwave would probably have more moving parts piston type thingy in it.
Cheers

Looking forward to seeing what you have up you sleeve next Kit. Actually I was planning on using one of the "weapons" from the servoarm for the shockwave cannon.
So a bit more progress on the engine. This one will get the graviton cannon, which means it will get a different CC weapon - as I want to use the Glaive for the CC orientated one coming up next. So instead I'll use my favourite bit from the killerkan box, a piston mounted powerdrill
Also worked on the engine - since the parts I wanted to use (from Blood and Skulls industry) turned out to way bigger than I thought, I fitted a sentinel engine instead. And LDD if you can figure out where the middle bit is from - I'll have to say...well something nice

I dont play SM so it can be a bit tricky at times

Thanks a lot - glad you like.
and I must say that despite whether the Dknight is a SM vehicle or not, you sertainly know you way round it's parts - extremely well guessed. Very large amount of kudos your way.

Why thank you kindly sir, I have a sad fascination with working out the parts
But I have to say this guy is all kinds of cool, I really was not sure what to expect from the parts you showed but seeing it come together is just WOW.
I would mention one thing (but it might just be the pic angle) the plasma cannon looks quite heavy, have you considered adding some extra supports.
By this I mean some supports coming from the Orc Killa Kan leg connecting to the side of the Plasma cannons flat top rectangle section, I hope that makes sense.

it is always so very much puzzling for me to see not my builds being constructed... somehow I totally get lost in the scales... it looks way bigger... and by this I mean life-sized!... now perspective finally kicks in... and it looks very cool!
am I right in assuming that it is now ready for paining?

Thanks guys.
It still needs a few bits, but I haven't got them yet, so I'm putting this on hold and starting something else in the mean time.

@Jehan-reznor: It's a american one - I think it's just called light walker.
@vik: I waiting for a mechanicus symbol to arrive. Other than that I'll add some cables to the weapons and some mechadendrites.
The next up in the production line are Praetorian Herakli - huge nasty gun servitors.
