I finished this conversion recently and wanted to get some feed back.

That looks really cool, but what is it? Sort of reminds me of a Necron Destroyer on Tau-steroids.

It is a mock up model from a game called Armored Core, and I am guilty of mulching an entire Defiler, hammerhead, viper, DE raider, and a dreadnought to make it.

Ah, sweet. I thought it was a Tau "Titan" as it were. Love armored core.

I would say great job in general...however, the mold line on the Tau Ion Cannon is way too prevalent. If you GSed the gap and repainted it (the cannon, not the model), it'd be perfect

i agree with the mold line comment. however... fantastic looking model.... you should make rules for it and see how it fares on the battle field.

thats is very cool, musta been hella expensive, but still cool non the less. are you going to be using it in wh40k games with the VDRs?

........totally sweet

at first glance, I thought of Front Mission (as I've never played Armored Core) Very nice work.

I did make rules for it using VDR, and made sure that it had exactly what it has in the video game, i.e.: it was actually balanced and came in at 850 points. I have played a single game with it against a 2500 point BT army and managed to take everything down except for the two fliers that finally dropped it, it was a fun and friendly game but I now have a new found respect for fliers.

Pretty sweet. I've been a big fan of Armored Core since the first game came out. Hopefully we'll get some internet play out of the next edition...speaking of which, has anyone tried Chromehounds yet? Is it any good?

It is possible to get online play, it's just not directly offered from the developer and is somewhat of a pain, but from what I've heard pays of quite quickly. If you want to know more send me a PM.
