**Pyro Stick** :

Chaos icons ove rround bases for the wheels (what xander did) is a good idea. I just need find 8 for my earthshakers…

that'd be 3 regiment sets worth my friend. At least I remember the seige shakers Xander, but its your warrior vids that took the crown as CDO's defining conversions!

**Ishkur Cinderhat** :

I think its a bit long but then again monumentally-sized weapons are just our thing! :wink: I agree that it should be mobile though.

**Ingrown** :

Looks really good. I dont think you should put wheels on with it being that big. rollers on the floor near it? i dont know. could defiantly do with some skulls or iconery, if your going for the demonic engine thing, cut the back off the opened mouth marauder heads (could be anything thats just what i had) and skulls, and press then into greenstuff surrounding the barrel, with a small amount of sculpting it looks like demon-y metal. One day i might finish that cannon…

**Ishkur Cinderhat** :

With enough baroque decoration you could actually turn it into something like this, the [Tsar Cannon](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tsar_Cannon):
