F.S.S. Siren Executioner

Rumor has it the Siren Executioner was a Mortar Headd used by the Lader branch of the Fillmore Empire's royal family. So named for the massive sword it wielded, facing the Executioner in single combat was almost certain death.

This has been sitting on my desk, 60-75% done for almost a year. After an initial burst of energy working on it, I'd set it aside as I didn't feel like I had enough medium azure parts to do it justice (both in my collection, and what was in production). Arguably, teal would be a better choice, since the original Neptune design is closer to that color, but the Volks IMS kits that I based more of this on are much closer to medium azure. I still would have liked a wider variety of curved slopes, SNOT brackets, and/or Technic panels, but overall I'm relatively satisfied with the shaping. Normally I'd stretch a limited supply of parts in a particular color with color-blocking or a two-tone color pattern, but the Neptune's color scheme is pretty monochromatic aside from some stripes and insignias.

The Siren Executioner is absolutely massive, it stands ~20-21 inches to the top of the head (and the horns add another inch or so). It can stand by itself (and even plant its feet squarely on the ground... Take that, Volks!), but being so tall, balance is finicky.
