We also got a MalcaDORN! This is a Malcador, upgunned using a conversion kit I bought from tinypanzerstudio on ebay. Conversion kit fits decently, doesn't have a lot of flash or anything to clean up, easy to work with. Highly recommend.
I... am not a fan of the Rogal Dorn. Not the profile, just... the model. It... doesn't look right to my brain? I don't know why, but I wanted something with a similar profile. Enter the MalcaDorn, which my Skaviir Dominion space Skaven call the Stormfiend-Class Heavy Battle Tank. It is, for the Skaviir, essentially an upgunned Stormvermin/Malcador. As the Skaviir Dominion captured some long-ago Imperium-held worlds (well outside of their current territory but still colonized by them at some point), they captured an annoyingly large number of Imperial war machines. While they were not a fan of the Leman Russ ("Why do we use stupid-Russ tank if we do not like them? Because we have THOUSANDS of the stupid-dumb things and it is more work to break them down and make new ones than to just use what we have!"), they found the Malcador to be similar enough to one of their own models of tracked vehicles to be acceptable.
The guns, however, needed an upgrade, and so the Stormfiend/MalcaDorn was born. Still rare, they are usually only under the direct control of an Armored Company Commander like Lieutenant Skivritt here. She's heard tales of captured human tank commanders screaming out 'drive me closer, I want to hit them with my sword,' and thought it was stupid. After all, if you use a whip or a flail, you don't have to be as close to hit them!
...at the moment, her torso and arms came from Sororitas Repentia, but I'm thinking of swapping out her arms with those of a DoK melusai... the Repentia are a little... ... lacking in arm size and it looks weird.
