I can't shake the feeling that I got the proportions wrong somehow.

Looks like a good mini to me, but yeah if you are following the conversion proportions it's a fair bit off.

The sponsons are too big, which leads to too small a gap between them. The top back part of the superstructure that holds the rear turret is too far back, which in turn means there is a very large space left between the heavy bolter targeting sensors and the front of the same superstructure.

This is a comparison side to side sized by length showing the rear superstructure position offset:
(edit – just noticed the right hand one needs to scoot back a bit for the line up, but i didn't save my file as anything other than a jpeg first time … zzzz)

and here's an overlayed comparison sized by width

message from the warp from elsmore – he's rather keen on the fellblade, and wondering if this BA legion fellbalde would inspire you to make anything ;) :

Yeah, that wouldn't be too difficult, since the hull is already done. The beautiful thing about digital design is that I can make a copy of a file and edit it, rather than start from scratch each time. I'm working right now on my version of the Taurox (a.k.a., the Muskox), but when I'm done with that, I'll tackle this thing.

seems like an easy swap for turrets. did that dude do the other legions? (too lazy to check :D ) Might be good for ideas.

You know what? You should add an optional panel that cover the tracks for those that want them. Minor add on that could be good. I really need to get three of those Storm Mallets soon as well.
