I'm sorry that there haven't been any updates lately, but I've simply forgotten to take any photos!

But, I have some good news! I'm done with the metal work of the Gargant, and now it's home, so I can finish it up! Unfortunately, I ran out of glue.
Which means that until I've gotten it (with a Battlewagon that I'm gonna loot some parts of), which will most likely be in two weeks, I can't work on it.

ZOG!

And ZOG again! I feckin hit submit when I was supposed to just preview it! Oh well, there's only just pictures to show anyway, so here ya go:

I might as well show you all the klaw first, as I just managed to get it done before I ran out of glue. Again, I apologize for the shoddy quality of the images.







And here's the Gargant himself!


And his feet.


Size comparison. From left to right is a Burna Boy, Gorgutz 'Eadhunter, my Stompa, and then my Gargant. And of course a Baneblade in front

Stay tuned in the next month when I get my glue!

EDIT: Oh, I almost forgot! I've measured its weight, and found out that it's about 12.5 kg heavy!

Alrighty! I actually got some glue because a friend of mine was going to a hobby store to get some stuff anyway, so I bought myself 3 small bottles of glue. Now I won't have to worry about not having enough glue for a good while

Anyway, I have also added stuff to the Gargant, including a special thing for its own Trophy rack. Can you guess it? If not, then check these out!:


The Great Gargant as it is now.


I am very satisfied with the head as it is. Or at least, the front and the jaw of it. I still need to add a few plates here and there.


And a little box with a Vulcan Mega Bolter turned into a Grot turret!


With a little hatch for those small snotlings to get in, too.


And here's the banner! Right now, as you can see, there's a Warhound Titan's head spiked, a Klan icon above it, and a grot observation post at the very top for those who either wants to stay protected, or for those who deserves a punishment. Either works


And of course, some gubbins, holders and wires on the Klaw arm!

More humie gargants for da pointy stikk!

Holy hell, I just realized how long ago it was since I've updated this!

So yeah, other than the fact that I'm out of thick plastic card (good thing I ordered some two days ago), I don't really have anything to say, so here's some images!


Yep, he's got a chestpiece now.


With a movable jaw!


The jaw's obviously a platform for embarked orks to fire from, and there's even a door to show it.


And I've added plates to the head!


Plus a squared cupola for a hatch.


And then there's the supa rokkits rack (sorry for the really big images. It's late here, and I feel too tired to edit them now...)


which can be tipped up!


And then a box for the exhausts.

Since it's a bit hard to move it around as it is right now, I've decided to get myself a wooden base, make some handles that's gonna work as pipes for the base decoration as well!

Man, I really am not good at keeping this blog updated.

But anyway, it's been a good while, but I also took a break from building further on with this thing for a while. But it is progress, nevertheless!


Here he is, in his current state! Notice the difference?


Now there's more guns, and actual ammo drums on the gun arm!


Plus a grot gunner.


Backside's also gotten some improvements.


And it's not a real Gargant if there's no Big Shoota pointing backwards.


He's not actually the Commanda. Just an Ork crewman who found his way to the top.


Grots!


And a Giga-Shoota turret. Note that the whole turret's actually filled with bullets, and there's only a small cabin behind the gun where an Ork can operate it.


I hope you guys enjoy the images! And hopefully, I will update a bit more frequently this time, instead of waiting a few months.
