Work in progress but wanted to share with my dakka-mates. Squig-a-naut can be more gorki or morki with the main cannon swap out. C&C welcome. Inside the mouth is a tiny magnet for either the burna or the kmb (that big of mouth, couldn't resist the flamer-burp)

That is all kinds of awesome! The only thing I would do is add more spikey bits/slapped on plates to the sides of the legs, to break up their flat silhouette.

Can't wait to see it finished!

New spikes on dem chicken legs!

.....and a few shots of the other converted Morkanaut.

Love it! Looks pretty scary like a mechanized Ork dinosaur.

Great job! Both are impressively Orky.

Been busy real life with many things, so finally got around to finishing up the squiggly Chomper. Still working on his base, but just wanted to post the update.

That is a great conversion, very original. Awesome job.

I like it a lot better than the original version of the model. Nice job!

Thanks alot for the inspiration. I had to have my own mecha-squiggy. Taking a break now, but Its coming along.

Oh man, this just made my day!

What kits were used in this???

Haha! Great job replicating my squiggie!

The parts used was the front and roller for the battle wagon, mixed in some truck engine parts. An extra melee arm to get the legs.

I have been busy with other armies but I did make and finish my dakka-zeppelin (posted here too, just search in the forums).
I do have a stomps on the way with lots o conversions but fist I have to finish a few more nurgly stuff.
Thanks again!

Thanks! He is not done yet, needs weapons and some flavor, but I could not find another arm on the internet, so made some molds and used about 12 bucks of greenstuff, you can see the fake pieces of leg and claws on the insides so they are less noticeable. Changed it some just for taste. Fun project but I think mine is more green stuff than plastic atm heh.

Think I am happy with how it looks now.

Looks great! Love Orks, you can slap things together and be fine with enough free stuff and super glue! Don't forget to drill them barrels.

Paintjob is great and its an awesome orky take on what are otherwise lacklustre units (rules-wise), keep up the good work!

Totally awesome stuff. Really love it!

These things are terrifying. And awesome!

Did some of the weathering, moving so dont have much time to work on my copy, may need to take a bit more paint off with some steel wool or something, not quite rusty enough for me.

Don't go too overboard with rust, ya ain't Nurgle!
Just enough to show wear but not falling totally apart. I always pictured orks kinda repairing as they go along or break/wrecking vechilces before they get a chance to rust too much. Lil rust on edges,but a lot of "raw" metal shining through from a scratch, looted from a hummie tank or not being painted in the first place.
Keep it up though, the copy is starting to flesh out.

Sick!

Those are badass bro. I love the Morkanaut conversion, looks real menacing and frankenstein like

Hey I scratch built one of those a few years ago. Never finished it but Ill share either way because Squigs are awesome

I like it alot. Deff dread?

Some days you eat the squig, some days the squig eats you.

Update on my copy, painted next to my ork knight.

i love your squiganaut so much i also made one, although mine looks more like a t-rex https://www.dakkadakka.com/gallery/874232-dakkanaut%20wip.html?m=2 keep it up can't wait to see more of your squiganaut

Hey all,
Glad to see my squiganaut has generated so many other Mek's to do the same.
For more squig loving, check out my other post where I was building my Morkanaut, but also my Squig Killa Kanz.
