I know there he been many threads on converting Mek guns. After cruising the GW store I found that one Mek gun is the price of 3 kans. has anyone tried to do this conversion they have many bits that could be used as or substituted as Mek guns. All I would need to do is scratch build the gun shield and maybe find some wheels. Has anyone tried this I tried googling but I only saw Kan conversions into grot tanks. Which I've already solved that problem by converting the old trailer for the orcs scorcha trakk and adding bits to them.

There are some good videos about buying one mek gun box and one trukk and making 4 mek gunz out of the two.

Look up ork mek gunz trukk conversion.

I supose but the kustom mega slugga, kustom mega blasta and kustom mega kannon each have plenty of model examples of their scale. The Kanz clearly have KMB''s not KMK's. If you want to find a KMK off a walker to be used as a Big Mek Gun you'll be stuck with the Naut box. The difference in size is easily noticeable. A KMB found on Kanz and Dredds can be carried two handed by a mek. The KMK is much bigger.

It's orks, you need no other reason

Never seen it done, but it's a thought.

Just as a concept.......I'd think about making the kans krawl on all 4s, and have the gun pointing out of the head of the killa kan, so it looks a 4 legged spider with a gun pointing forward. Maybe put a grot gunner cockpit from the dakkajet box on the top as a seat for a grot.

I'd recommend at least one mek gun if only for the bitz bonanza, but overall yes, the prices for mek gunz are crazy.

I really like the spider Idea! That's something I can most definitely roll with. Unique.

For the Manx box I'd use the grotzooka and rocket launchas for more of my grot tank conversions. I could model two KMB side by side to make a KMK.
