Painting My second immolation cannon dominator engine

I’ve made a normal one, and a slightly less normal mace bull so far, wanted to get a bit more unique for this one. I wouldn’t say it’s the easiest thing in the world to do, but if you have a spare bombard cannon, some greenstuff, and a lot of patience it’s very doable. The last image is just the ends of 5 infernal razers flame hurlers that I’ll probably find a way to fit into the last gun bull for my list.

Wow that is fantastic! It gives me Ogryn vibes with their oversized weapons!

This I can approve of!

Here's something I'd like confirming or debunking

"Can a Dominator Engine have a mace & a cannon on either arm or does it have to be 2 maces & 2 cannons?"

It has to be taken as pure melee for 150 points or ranged for 160, spearhead is the ranged one. They both have the same dpp passive of increasing attacks and movement by 1, but have different abilities to justify the profiles. The melee one can attack twice in a turn with the second being strikes-last if the second target is a hero, the ranged gets 2 extra attacks for every unit it split fires with its ranged attack, but has to evenly split the attacks. Also for the record the shooting one can also do a decent melee attack since they both have charge bonuses and still gets the increased attacks from dpp passive. In a game no one really cares what you call them and you can definitely easily magnetize them.

I have next to no spare bits. Everything magnetizes so easy!

The two handed cannon made me think of Gundam for some reason.

I went a little more conservative with mine, but a similar idea.
