I love those old hairy Squiggoths, and your paint job do them more than justice. Great job.

That is a fine set of squiggypults. What did you use as wheels? And The rest. Basically, all I recognize is the grots.

looking at the top photo.

I'm guessing catapult 1 is: a piece of biro innard, short length of paperclip or brass rod and some sort of cannon. The wheels look a little like cigarette lighter wheels, but might be from an actual model.

on the 2nd one, the frame is the support frame for the 40k Space Marine scouts heavy bolter

The third looks a little like plasticard, and the caapult arm looks suspicously like a 1/12 dollshouse spoon.

:D dolly spoon if only, my daughters would kill me. ;D
all the wheels are from old mechwarrior trike minis
cat 1 is a auto cannon from a EW gyrocopter
cat 2 is a chopped down mortar stand & a entrenching tool from some 20mm Germans
cat 3 is plasticard & a cut down lizard man mace

I like it a lot, but it needs more patch lines and rivets - casting metal into a curve is quite difficult. easier to assemble many pieces.

Are the squiggoths Grym k9s?
(I ask with some trepidation, considering how wrong i was last time)

Nice! Agree that the steam gargant could use more rivets, but the shape and general design is excellent. I like your squiggoths too. How big are they?
