Artist's Comments

NOTE: PLEASE DO NOT FAV MY DEVIATION WITHOUT A COMMENT, I GREATLY PREFER COMMENTS THAT FAVS!

:new: Wordbearer pointed out that the original model had no clear indication of how it attacked. So I've painted lighting effects on the main orb to better represent the electrical weapon it uses.

Well choosing to use the deamon codex has been interesting as it has allowed me to convert more robots for the Zanatorians.

This is the Zanatorian Disruptor, they work by flying up to a vehcile and discharging a powerful electrical field causing massive damage to the target.
Perfect for representing Tzeentch Screamers!

As you can see I've also made a small change by replacing the destroyer arm with a scope which looks a heck of a lot better: [link]

Hmm, very cool and sleek looking now, but it still isn't particularly clear what this thing does to attack its foes. I'd recommend that you use really fine but rigid wires (Hard ware or electronic repair shop is where you can find them.) to make electrical arcs from the arms into each other, the ground, and possibly a really bright glowy ball of energy in front of it. Also you could add small vehicles to the base lying on the ground with arcs of lightning bouncing all over it from the disrupter. I think that the easiest thing to use for this would be a tau gundrone and the teleport homer bit from the terminator box.

Other than that this guy looks pretty much done, the only other minor recommendation I would make is for you to turn the ball in the center of the chest into a sphere of energy by repainting it along those lines. Also if you do the lightning arc idea they could all come out of it perhaps, though actually it would look cooler for them to come from the arms.

I like the latest entry to the Disruptor. The lack of any tubing on the top is actually welcome. Its nice and streamlined.

Thoughts on the origins on this one? I love the look of it, but its definitely different then the Constructor and the Harbinger, they've got a truly crude robotic look to them.

Don't change this thing anymore that you feel you need to, because I do LOVE this look.

Hmm, sizably better mate, I'm sure that up close it would be even better looking as the glare from the camera prevents a full view of the glowie orb.

As an idea on how you can make it even clearer how these guys are attacking and just to make a cool base you should have one attacking a space marine/terminator. Have the marine in a really stiff writhing in pain pose with the disrupter sort of hugging him and paint/use the wire lightning effect (Use it damnit!) to make it clear that he is being electrocuted. But yeah, this guy is better now.
