[WiP] Dwarven Shield

[Sabre]

Think shield meets chainsaw.

"A steam powered shield that, when fired up, can carve through enemies"

Needs a couple more animations I'm sure...Also, I need to make it so the eyes are in the right place in the model...I'll need some help with that

Just noticed the second picture has the gear clipping...But yeah, the thing spins really fast, no worries.

Looks awesome, but you may want to fix that whole broken thumb thing.

One hell of a sex concept. Hope to see it in game whenever a patch rolls around.

We'll see how it looks in first-person, then I can correct.

I'm trying to figure out what I'm looking at. The small spike 'gear' turns the shield? How is that functionally possible, if it only has a black cable connecting to it from the black thing I'm guessing is the steam source? How about a piston and a rod cranking the shield.

Well if you wanna be realistic about it, the tube focuses the steam into a turbine connected to the gear...Also, magic.

There's a very tiny but very determined dwarf, running like a hamster, inside the center of the wheel.
