I just keep looking at all the details you've managed to add... Great work!

Damn, you're doing what I couldn't with 'Big Berfa' All those details and the paint-job, totally awesome - it's what I wanted to do but failed (Berfa's still sitting neglected on a shelf, maybe I need to send her to you )

Looking amazing Cam! I really like your idea of it coming apart to play missions inside. Beautiful detailed paint job too.

I love the weapon & ammo crates Cam. Brilliant use of a bunch of old choppas. Project is looking stunningly beautiful. So much creativity on display. Wow!

Thank you all.

Few licks of paint and "room" done.







Thank you for looking.

Beautiful work all over

Woot!

Great work, Cam'.

Thanks guys.

Just a little work done this evening...




Thanks for looking.

That's such a fantastically grimy engine. It was scratchbuilt, right?

Yup...

I still say that it's a steampunk sewing machine

Ahh...propa enjinzz for da big stompa....

Steampunk sewing machines are smaller

Great work Cam, will it go in the already finished rooms or somewehere else?

stunning build , subscribed

That is a great engine, I actually thought you pulled it out of a piece of machinery at first

By Gork and Mork! A Mega-Gargant! Dude, that's quite ambitious build, but you're pulling it off quite nicely.

Love it.

Thanks as always guy's.

@ Waaazag. I hear you on the size. Might look at it again later. See what you think of arm swaps below.

@ Shas Thank you.

@ Dr H. Thank you and sorry, about the way I post things sometimes, just like for people to see the process some times.

First is a shot of a LED mounted in the bottom of the cab.....(blooming impoossible to get a decent shot of.....



Then there is the last combat arm.....



And some of it is interchangable.....



The new arm is a hydrolic spikey thing. I think of the dredd grabbing with the claw then spearing it and the hydrolics tearing the spike into it's victims.

Thoughts?

Also Got the shooty bit to decide on, what do people think I should go with. Originally thought Rokkit rack on roof when I make it. But now I am not sure, maybe a skorcher between its legs!! Or just mounted low on his left. Your thoughts would be helpful here.

As to over all size, he currently stands 8cm ( 3" ) Tall to the top of the body. Exhausts and arms extend everything everywhere.

Thanks for looking in and c&C very much appreciated.

lovely stuff Cam

Thank you all very much.

@ Walord_ky Thank you, been a while since then.

@ Everyone else thanks guys really appreciate the comments.

Gear box and engine management systems.....cheating, it's all in a box.....



Not sure about this, was meant to be out the back, as on the mega gargant there is a "3rd" wheel arrangement out the back, was going to make this the main drive and have this engine and gearbox as the guts of it. Trouble I have is I originally planned to have it in line but that is coming out a bit big....


So probably plan B, going to mount it like this and have a couple pully wheels and a belt between....


Got to add a couple hubs and drive shafts coming out of the gearbox. And then set up some rear tracks.

The drive for the side tracks will be in the "hidden" in the housings above the track sections with appropriate exhausts out the back.

I have started work on the front main gun deck, just the beams and supports at the moment, this will be on the 6th level, still trying to work out if I do much for the 5th level yet, maybe another room.

Thank you all for looking and comments are wonderful and gratefully received.

I think the top mount is a cool idea, especially with the belt idea.

Oh yeah, that'll be awesome. Could then put a little tangle/rat's nest of beams under the rest of the engine as a 'support' for it. Maybe make a little grot nest or something in there, too.

Yep, that'll work

It is going to be massive.

Cheers,

CB

That'll work . And loving the third wheel idea, seems totally orky!

*scrabbles around on floor desperately hunting for dropped jaw*

And you're GIVING that away?

Greater love hath no man...

Thank you all so much folks.

@ Skinflint Games, yup all I would ask is a bit of help with the postage depending on where we are talking about.

Bit more done, but doesn't look like much...

Added in the panels on the walls where there are not rooms and some upper braces ..

And in place..


Thanks for looking...

I need this to fight Blackadder's Imperator.

Thanks Briancj

Yours if you want it.

Another "room" done...


And some of the crew...


Thanks for looking.

Still awesome!

that last pic reminds me of gremlins

the gargant is literally too big for a words like awesome...it needs something with much more...dunno...my language skills are failing here...
