Hi everybody, and a late Merry Christmas to you all !

Markconz requested some close-up pics of my scratch-built gargant a couple of weeks ago on the SG boards, and I finally managed to borrow a digital camera from a friend.

Trouble is, I'm not all that good with it, so the pictures are a bit fuzzy and too dark, but I'll try to do better next time. "Next time" being when I've finished painting my Iyanden army, which should be soon (2-3 weeks max).

Anyway, here's the link to the gargant's (and my other armies') pics : LINK.

Nice looking minis, Hojyn. I'm impressed with your scratch built gargant. :cool:

Interesting - any close-ups of the big Ork beastie seen only with the rest of the army? :D
Cheers Hojyn - nice work.

Thanks Hojyn - great work, I love seeing scratchbuilt gargants!

Now to be really annoying - could I ask for  a close up of the other one as well when you do your next photoshoot ( I missed it last time!! :O ) The big crawler version?

Better late than never... ?:(8:



It's a bit crude... well, its Orky. ?:D Just like the Gargant, it's made of cardboard with various bits and pieces glued on. I'm not really satisfied by it, mainly because it's waaaay to big (supposed to be a Battlefortress), but I guess it's alright for something that took a couple of hours to be built.

Primarch

Well, it's supposed to be a Battlefortress or a Gunfortress... but it's almost as big as a Gargant !

So I guess I could call it... a Gargortress ?  :p
