Prussia proudly presents: Kaiser Wilhem MkI

[Thorwin]

Ladies and gentlemen,
This mighty warmachine is the state of the art in prussian military technology.  
This particular awe-inspiring beast is called the Fafnir-Version of the first production line of Kaiser Wilhelm Walkers.
The features include the MkI legs which will soon be replaced by a new version on the MKII and a devastating flamethrower.

It's... It's... Aliiiive!

Seriously though what an excellent piece of work. You really have to share how you made it.

german technology ?
ya

The making of this walker was a bit complicated.
The Torso is made of a multivitamin pills tube. Then some plastic card + cut brass nails for the rivets.
The little windows are from a cut ballpoint pen , the tip was used for the flamethrower + GW bit, another one was used for the smokestack and the front window.
The legs, the back hatch and the joints for the arms are from GW Orc Killa Kan.  
The arms are modified from GW grey knights Dread Knight.
The wheel is from the Stephensons Rocket from Matchbox.
Some minor parts , Reviresco , Brigade Games VSF bits, brass wire.

Nice build.
 


A 'proper' VSF look, that is.

Agreed

I wanted to be as near to the original on the front cover of IHMN as possible.
The legs were the biggest problem and the slightly conical shape of the body on the cover.
I think the rest is ok 

[Craig]

Well you have done a mighty fine job indeed, and it shall be an inspiration to many others I am sure!

Nice build and nice paint job.  Really has the look of cast-iron (may a hint of rust).  And has that VSF look.

[Dewbakuk]

Cool.

One thing I'd suggest is adding a smaller wheel lower on the body so you can run a belt between the two and give that big one a purpose.

[Craig]

It seemed well and fitting...

Excellent build. One of the most 'Victorian' VSF walkers I've seen
