Description
Here we go, another weapon of a member of the Heaven's Guard: Kegan. His original weapon was a flamethrower. I didn't know what to combine it with at first. He SHOULD have a light weapon, but once I had an idea for a combo with a ball and chain I just had to do it. so here it is, the Meteorcross.The weapon can emit flames from the openings in the ball. The have quite a range, though it's usually limited so Kegan doesn't hit himself. Most of the ball is occupied by a mechanism to roll in the chain, the armoring and the firing mechanism, so it can't fit all that much fuel. so the chain can reel in and connect with the base, which is normally attached to Keran's right arm. when connected, fuel can be transferred from the small tanks on the arm back to the ball. Next to that, in this state it can be used much like a traditional flamethrower, firing only from the cross-shaped opening.
Well then, there'll be at least 3 more of these coming up, so expect them somewhere soon!

Great design and well thought out! At first I was skeptical with having flames pour from the ball as it would make wielding it very dangerous to the wielder but after reading the entire description it makes a lot of sense.
Good idea to combine a flame thrower with a short range weapon, otherwise it would make the wielder much more vulnerable in close combat or encumbered due to the need to carry a secondary weapon.

Thanks for the comment. While the weapon was tweakied to be as sensible as possible, I could understand any skeptisism about the usefulness of the design, though. I mean, it's a flamethrower flail. But as soon as the two weapons came together and I imagined someone swinging a huge flaming ball around my brain just went 'HELL YEAH!' and it simply had to be so.

Wow scary looking object.
Looks unique though, nice design.
I think maybe a tiny bit more detail is needed on the actual mace bit? Doesnt seem to stand out as much as the rest.

Thank you
And here I was thinking it may have been too crowded X3 The thing is, it's a big object that's meant to have a fairly primitive look too it. It's swung into people's faces. Tiny added bits are too likely to break off quickly. Only thing I might be able to add is small rings around the spikes...

Lol, this is very true.
I meant a darker line, like at the beginning of the shadows on the other objects.
Small rings would work

Well, it's standing on the spikes, so it's normal that it isn't as dark at the bottom. Also, well, it's a 3D model. changing that bit specifically is extremely difficult.
