The Warforge Miniature Modelling and Conversion

Fancy dancin’ shoes

The bad news: I have a lot of conceptualizing before I can figure out how these legs are going to be posed.

The good news: I think my trade is greenlit, which means I can unveil my idea for Zaggy's feet.

The feet talons are made from the 2nd edition Nazdreg model's power klaw. I did a lot of hacking and cutting before I got it the right shape, but I think it's perfect for the mechanized feet talons Zagstruk needs. The trade I mentioned was for more of these klaws so that I can get Zagstuk a proper pair of matching feet. Now my only problem is sorting out Zag's pose!

In my head, I picture Zagstruk's model descending feet-first towards some hapless target on the ground. I sort've picture the left leg crooked up, with the right leg extended straight down as the primary point of impact. He'd be leaning back a bit into the strike, I think. I can work it out in my head, but when I actually look at the model it seems like it's going to be much harder to convey. I wish I had my tablet handy so I could sketch this out. It'd make life a lot easier.

 

I have to sort the klaw feet out a bit better, too. I like having one thick, central strut for the leg, but I need to add auxiliary pistons. A trip to the hobby shop is in order tomorrow so I can get tubing for proper hydraulics, as I'm running low on my plasticard. I don't even know the particular design of the legs; I only thought out the actual klaw. I'm more than welcome to ideas.
