Jaffa! KREE!! :D

That looks awesome. Can we get a side-angled view, to get a better idea of the head and gun arm's length? Thanks!

Ok, now that is positivly Egyptian looking. Plus that arm is just too huge! Are Wolfhound pilots compensating for something?

It was a consideration during sculpting whether to keep it that size or reduce it. Two points kept it large: the base illustration showing a very large bore weapon, and that it is a 10-ton weapon wrapped in armor on a 35-ton 'Mech. For comparison, that proportion is greater than the Helepolis's Sniper artillery piece to its total weight. If it is too great a concern for you, the arm from the standard Wolfhound will still fit.

It's a heavy PPC on a 35 ton mech, personally I think it looks fine. I definitely need one.

Oh wow. OK, the Woodsman looks great, but that Wolfhound... man, that's DEFINITELY being done a couple of times. VERY nice.

I was pretty discouraged by the Onager and Shadow Cat II, looks like these might even things up again. Here's hoping my FLGS has a Mad Cat IV today...

Aye, very much need the Wolfhound and Woodsman.  Maybe an Onager, too.

I have to admit, I wasn't originally planning to buy a woodsman, but that mini is very nice looking. I might have to break down and get one.

I couldn't see the picture in the post, but quoting it I clearly see the image tags.
Hopefully, this will let me see it.

The new Wolfhound is pretty awesome looking.

Edit: Nope. Still can't see the woodsman.
Edit2: I googled the url for the image and got nothing.
