It's no secret that I really like Hellcannons. I've delved into a Nurgle and Slaanesh skewed ones already (with plans to do the other powers!). But I kind of got thinking what a Hellcannon would look like before it was possessed by daemons.

Perhaps they start life as a "normal" artillery piece and over time unleashing so must destruction, suffering and service to the Evil Dwarfs, they inadvertently become primed for something much more malevolent.

So, I went about crafting a non-daemon engine version, of course taking design queues from the rest of the range. I also gave myself a 100x150mm base to work with.Then I got thinking just how such a huge cannon would be loaded. The ammunition would be huge and so heavy it would need ogre strength; hence I needed an Ogre loader. Then I thought why not add some mechanical help.

The entire platform itself would be carriage transported too; no way you should carry those warheads onto the battlefield. The platform itself would be driven up to the war machine and parked for the battle.So was made the Tyrant Cannon. Off to test print while I continue making winged beast! Will get the Tyrant Cannon on Cults3D and MMF shortly.

Hope you are all having a great hobby weekend!

Have you considered a Slave Car for the Chaos Dwarf's train? I know of only one online for 10mm and I suspect that you would create a much better one for 28mm. Thanks

It's on the list in my mind, I think it'll come about one random weekend just like the Tyrant Cannon. Would look compatible to build the train with the other war machines and carriages in the line. I have ideas of different races gripping the jail bars, some reaching out. It also wouldn't be very dwarf-like not to have back up plans in case the slaves get too rowdy. So imagine the Skullcracker whirling blades just one red button away from calming the prisoners down... perhaps permanently haha.

This is sooo sick, really look forward to printing one of these babies. Unrelated-- do you have plans to make the rounder style of chorf helmets? I love the masks, but personally I much prefer the more conical/ onion-shaped heads for the lads. Thank you for your hard work

Awesome stuff! No immediate plans just yet with my focus this month being on hero parts - there will be smooth helmets in that for characters. At the moment there are 15 different 'round helmet' designs which you can grab here: https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/game/evil-dwarf-smooth-helmets-pack (30% discount code for members applies of course) but if you have the Wargear Expansion and Head & Shoulders packs then you have these already. What other smooth helmets would you be after anyway? I'm sure I'll come back to it when looking at Elite infantry so ideas are always welcome.
