I can't imagine a squiggoth brushing his teeth regularly...although the mental image of grots with brooms and gallons of toothpaste is rather amusing.

hilarious thought... but i guess there is always a time after a certain sleigh related project...

So small update, working on the howdah, thoughts, comments, ect.

Looks good to me.

very cool looking construction... love the floodlights...

where is the weaponry going to be then?

Great paint job. I especially like the white stripe. Really matches the theme you are going for. Howdah looking great.

Thanks! i like them too, idk if i will give it a gun, but if i run it as a battle wagon it would have 4 big shootas, 4 rokkits, 1 kannon. Plus troops. If squigg, just a kannon of some type + crew.

Thanks Cracker!

hodah update, comments ideas, go.

Looking really great. If I could suggest anything it would be this: cut circles in the roof and open one of the hatches. That way it looks like hatches in the roof and less like hatches attached to the roof. All the antenna and floodlights are a nice touch too.

i like where you are going with this, but then i will need some small latter type deal. To the crafting table!

Good luck sir!

Hey, i made some grot big guns. easy construction. What do you think?

I like the howdah. I agree with Gits though. I also like the Grot Big Guns. They look sweet!

Loving the big guns, what kind do you plan to use them as? Also mind if I loot the idea? those finecast big guns just never did it for me.

loot away captain. no sense in paying for something that is made from spare bits.

I like those guns. Very orky of you to strap a bunch of missiles together and hope for the best!

Lucky its only grotz shootin dem.

Those big guns look great! My initial reaction was they were not random enough, but a quick glance through your thread looks like they will fit your theme well.

All comes down to theme. Happy you like them. I will most likely make another 3 - 6.

Hey I've Been reading, and I wanna say great painting job. I'm really jealous of your skills and I Love your greens. But I decided to say something because I had a thought for the much vaunted grots unit. The idea is "Wolverines" from Red Dawn.

Nevie welcome to the party! You really make me ; thank you for the delightful comments. I am afraid i don't understand your idea - can you explain it further?

I think he's suggesting you make a rebel grots unit based on the wolverines from "Red Dawn". did I get that right?

Just played a warhammer game with my buddy. Grot arty - that stuff is off the chain!

Yeah. Sorry if I was unclear. I meant that you should do a unit of grots dressed as the rebel kids from the red dawn movie (in the old one they called themselves the "Wolverines", I haven't seen the new one yet on a matter of principle) but they were dressed up in rag tag clothes and cloaks. Did a lot of guerrilla style hit and run tactics and were all fairly young. It just seemed to work together in my head.
