Hi,
Thank you very much everyone :), really happy that you like it.
Widgren soryy, I'll take a picture of the Landa near some troops, I think it is 9.5 cm long. I'll also be happy to take picture near more troops.

The railing are from PE detailing set for the tirpitz german WWII ship.

But take a look at white ensign models website, the have in 1/350 accessories a sheet with doors, rladders and hatches, and another for 1/350 railings (I used eduard's which are superb and my favorite PE company).

Eyal.

This thing is looking amazing, keep going!

If I have one criticism  then the claw arm looks a little 'up and down' and not very 'side to side'... Erm... What I mean is I can't see it having much range of motion on more than one plane. That said, it looks proper-Orky!

I know that's being overly picky (it's in my nature, I think I'm this board's nit-picker of superb stuff  :shutup: ) the whole thing looks amazing and I'm in awe of your skills (I couldn't come close), dedication and imagination.

Thanks guys :),
levinas its fine by me, I am happy to get CC, and very much appreciate it.

To be honest the whole arm gave me quite the trouble, and I hear your comment regarding how it is not so natural. For this one it is probably too late but I will definetely take more care for next gargant. I do have an idea stuck in my in my head to build enough models to field an OGMB (?) list.

so don't worry, and please continue to give your feedback is is very improtant to me and a great way for me to improve.

Eyal.

I only have one question.  Why aren't there pictures of it painted yet? :vD

Excellent work.

Yeah I want to paint it also but I'm waiting for my order of plasticard to get to me. Either that or I finally find thin enough straws to use. Need to finish that hand already..
And I would also like to create an interesting base for it.
Eyal.

Hands down one of the coolest scratch builds I've ever seen! This has the potential to be nicer than the SG version.

I believe that's true also. Mainly due to the tracks making more sense than feet on a Gargant.

For the base idea. How about a tank cut in half, shoved up next to the tracks making it look like it's just been squished and putting some flat off-cuts and bits under the track to show the remains of the tank?

Thank you very much guys :), I really appreciate your very kind words.

Warhead yep that is a cool idea.
I've seen a picture (and a diorama by it), of a WWII tiger tank which is travelling on a road, and behind it a couple of vehicles he drove over. Half of them were splatted, and looked like a bug which was stepped on.
Definetely a possibility, can paint them in SM chapter color as well :)..

Hi,
Finally finished with building the thing :).
After not getting the plasticard tubes for the gatling, I changed the arm a bit to make a nother gun, and the gatling will wait for the next gargant.
Also some bits were added, and last picture shows the new reserves arriving and primed :).
Thanks for watching, next time I hope to start paint it,
Eyal.
