Grimstonefire:

Whilst I have my ‘stand in’ Hellcannon for the moment, I was thinking last night that with a lot of work this could feasibly be an Earthshaker



For anyone who’s curious its a US M198 Howitzer.

I was thinking of trying to have it like an immense walker that’s lying down, so its nice and squat looking.

I know just to look at it, it may seem way too 40k, but with a bit of work bringing it back to fantasy it might just work IMO.

Here is another reference, but its not close enough to what I have in mind.

Someone HOH did a Howitzer style Death Rocket which reminds me very much of this. If you downgraded it somewhat, the Basilisk turret could work.

Check out forgeworld, there are some nice artillery pieces on there which could work well as 'Shakers
