Ok, so I'm pretty sure that GW doesn't make one, so does anyone have conversion ideas of how to make one, preferably using Big shootas as the base (cuse thats what I got)

I saw some people use bits of plastic straw, with holes drilled in the sides for like vent holes. It looked rather slick.

This ( for me ) is part of the fun of playing Orkz,getting creative and bashing out various orky goodies.
Since there is no "official" Grotzooka option,go nuts,sure you can use Big shootas as a base,slip some plastic tubing over the BS barrel to enlarge it,add some guitar string to simulate cable and wires,add various gubbins & worky bitz and..instant Grotzooka.
The main thing I'd advise is do a few test drawings and dry runs before you start gluing,sit there with piles of "bitz" and tubes and just play around until an idea clicks.
And don't worry about "does this look like a Grotzooka",it's an Ork weapon,every Mek has their own style.

for one, I made some kind of grenade launcher thing, for the other I attached a box full of junk to the far end of the trukk exaust pipe, looks rather cool, you can use any bitz you think might work, or maybe there's an existing gun that fits the bill? (I'd love to see some kind of havok launcher grotzooka)

Is it just me who thinks a grotzooka should fire grots?

I used the exhaust port from a battlewagon + the grot from a biker boy box (they come with several) to make a Grotzooka.

Made mine using plastic tubing for the gun, and attached GW oil drums cut in half and filled with scrap to represent the ammo.

I'm happy with them.
