'Oculus Epitome' - RWBY OC Weapon

Description

Here's the next in my RWBY weapon lineup! Sorry this one took so long, I am also working on a character to use the weapons which has been a big learning curve. As such, I'll have a slightly slower rate of production on these weapons!
Note: I played around with the render settings, and this one should be more high quality and less fuzzy than the previous ones! :]

This one is a bit unconventional, but I liked the idea so bear with me. In its primary form, this weapon acts as a normal rocket launcher, much like Juniors in the show nix the cluster rockets. What really makes the weapon unique is its secondary form, which is a battering ram. It works like this: The front part of the launcher closes off and the firing mechanism reverses causing the rockets to shoot out the back. Normally when a rocket is fired, the heat/gas/whatever comes out of the back of a rocket escapes out the opened back of the launcher. In this case, this opened section is closed off, with only four smaller vents to release the pressure. By firing the rocket, the pressure buildup causes the front of the launcher to thrust forward to bash any unsuspecting victim into oblivion. Thanks to the vents though, the pressure doesn't become a critical hazard to the user.
The transformation is simple and quick, allowing the user to go from launcher to battering ram easily and without having to let go of the weapon's handles.

The weapon obviously weights a fair bit and would require a somewhat strong user to wield successfully, although an appropriate semblance could easily make up for this drawback.

I appreciate any comments/feedback anyone may have on how to better improve the weapon, or my animation in general, let me know what you think!
