I finally finished my Great Gargant! here's the WiP thread, if you want to see it step by step. http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/411625.page















Here's a few scale pictures. The Great Gargant is twenty-one inches tall and nineteen inches wide. (although the footprint is a tad bigger, the span between the gun tips on the arms is twenty-three inches, almost two feet!)





There are nine removable armor plates on the Great Gargant to keep track of destroyed structure points, five on the body and four on the shoulders. The arms, shoulder cannons and head are also removable.





The interior is stuffed to the rafters with models and gubbins, there are five Meks and two Runtherders along with twenty-two Grots.





















Thanks for looking! As usual any questions, comments, criticisms and suggestions are appreciated!

Best Gargant ever.

All I can really say is I love every single bit of this!!!

This is incredible. I am absolutely floored by your creation.

Oh my. You should put in on your Dakka gallery so I can 10/10 the gak out of it.

Now that is a gargant!

Outstanding job - putting in interior detail really makes this a stand out model. The removable armor plates are genius.

Every once in a while I dream of building a gargant like this. You sir have both inspired and intimidated me!!

That is one bloody beautiful Gargant you have there mate! Now this is a very minor bit of criticism but im not a huge fan of the wang gun

I have 2 things to say to you good man....

1. Your mental

2. One day I hope i'm as mental as you to complete such a masterpeice

Epic work, stick it in the gallery so we can vote the living heck out of it!

I like how it is decorated inside. It would be like to kick open an ants nest and seing whats inside.

I was planning on making something like this (but much smaller) but I feel It would be a ripoff of this plus I have terrible moddeling skills.

That thing is totally badass. I love your unique style, it fits with the orks but also looks different. THis is a mammoth modelling project, and you must be really pleased with the end result!

Amazing work! i had follw it from the begin and i think you have done an impressive work!

This is awesome! How many different sub-assemblies did you paint this thing in?

Very Orky.. me gusta.

Just...wow

Makes me feel ashamed of my little Great Gargant.

Bravo!

Utterly amazing!

Very, very nice work!

I really like the overall threatening appearance and the paint job! Maybe someday I´ll find the time to finish my Great Gargant too...

Cheers

Holy Bezeesus! Thats the best and scariest Gargant I have ever seen! Good job

Man, if I was a millionaire, I'd commission you to make another one. I utterly utterly love it!

One word to sum it up: Wowhollybegebusjawdroppingamazinggoodness! if you call that a word lol

I am totally stealing this idea, (especially the structure points being represented by the plates). Very awesome 10/10.

Agreed, 100%.

The look is rather unique, as well. It has the traditional stubby, clunky (and, frankly, silly (said lovingly, of course)) shape that one expects from a gargant, but the scaffolding, chain, and layers of pointed metal, coupled with the paintjob, give it a more real and menacing feel - sort of 40k's Orks meet Firefly's Reavers.

I said it on your Plog and I'll say it here: This is AMAZING.

I really love the detail. I can just sit here and pick out little cool bits all day.

I'm really impressed with the fully detailed and crewed interior.

The head and weapons all look especially mean.

Great improvement over your original as well!

Very easily the best Gargant I have ever seen. I love the detail on the inside, and the removable armor plates are fantastic. Stunning work!

Its BRILLIANT!
It should be on the home page, Exalted

That is freaking Epic! Well done!

Awesome! How much does it weigh?

This is as close to 'magestic' as Orks can get...

Epic win. Not only is it a game model, but it's also a diorama with all the interior parts. A delightfully mad work of art!
