This strikes me as something inspired by the miniatures game Warmachine by Reaper(?) miniatures.

I think that's where it came from. The reference pics I was sent were of the game pieces, but I believe this is an original mech.

Ah, not so bad then.

I forget the nation that one is styled after but still that's not a bad game system. Got some really good ideas for designs.

It's based from a Cygnar Warjack from the game Warmachine by Privateer Press. Primarily it's a Centurion Warjack, but with a different Weapons load out and an Arc Node.

Privateer THAT'S it, I had the wrong system.

Yeah that is Cygnar, I'm more a fan of the Khador designs which is why I didn't recognize it right away. I don't play (can't afford that either) but I have looked at some of the stuff for it.

Well you can read about this 'jack and iron Kingdoms stuff in general in a Warmachine novella I wrote if you're interested on my page called The Sword of Morrow.

Do those runs have any particular meaning or are they just random caricatures?

Rune Circles like this often show the magic connection between the Warjack and its controller (or Warcaster). The cannon has some as well since it's design to fire ammunition laced with spells.

I get what there supposed to do. I mean did you intend for the caricatures to say something or did you just punch them in randomly?

These ruins are random. The artist who did the original lines didn't know enough about them to give them specific purpose. I won't complain though, I think did an incredible job.

It's based on the mechs from a RP game called Warmachine,..or Warcraft..or something like that..not the movies.
But I'm glad you liked it Robo!
