Let’s share useful reference pictures that can inspire Chaos Dwarf machinery conversions & sculpts in the future. It could be things like ordinary 19th century industrial machinery or depictions of hellish or bizarre machinery from artwork and games.
I made a separate post with some inspirational warmachine imagery, but since it is animated (and should be experienced as such) I won’t crowd this thread and instead just link to it here, so that this thread can be a scroll-able inspirational hub once the pictures begin to amass
A delightfully classic fantasy image from The Complete Book of Dwarves, 2nd Edition Advanced Dungeons & Dragons (The one true edition, of which all other editions are merely shadows).
I’ve have an interest in ideas for strange machines the Dawi Zharr might make and I started a thread for the same a while ago. http://www.chaos-dwarfs.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=16628 but I’ll move the only pertinent post over and join it into this one.
This one is obviously from the game Konflict 47
It does bear some partial resemblance to machines already created for fantasy, IE the Abyssal Ironcaster Hybrid to name one
