Outstanding!

Is that a bash or is it something an idiot-finger-gluing-to-the-mech knucklehead like me could put together?

I too would like to know that.

I did one years back just replacing the arms with Madcats Missle pods.
But this is far superior.

That's excellent!!  Very nice weathering, and I'm especially impressed with the fact that you weathered the decals as well.   [rockon]

Looks nice. Not a fan of this variant. I like the one with the Ultra :) Bound 5, BOOM-BOOM!

Awesome, it really fits well.

The First Proserpina Hussars were eager to fight the Smoke Jaguars, but the commanders assigned them to attack worlds held by Clan Nova Cat instead. They faced a hard fight on Kanowit, but took Mualang by winning a round of miniature golf. This obviously minimized further losses.

There can never be enough Summoner variants 8) I've done one and can't be too sure if I just used random parts or IWM omniparts - because  I can't remember what they had at that point :p

The Summoner B was available on the IWM online store a while ago as fan based sculpt iirc. The parts are still available (less the NARC) with the omnipods.

Interesting fact, the leg size of this old sculpt is something between the original resculpt and the later resized legs. So you may have Thors with 3 different leg sizes.  :D

It's easy, actually. The B used to be sold as an IWM online exclusive, but I think you can get all of the parts from the Omnimech parts section now. It's a standard Summoner's legs and torso, a narc launcher part on top in place of the usual drum launcher, an arm for each side with an SRM-4 rack in place of the hand, and then there's LRM-20 parts that fit over the top of the shoulder assemblies. Very easy to do- I've done two now and had no problems with them whatsoever, despite having pretty much zero skill working on miniatures myself.
