Gargant - painting started

Just a catch up post really - I took these photos a few days ago and the gargant is actually more complete, but I'm pressed for time at the moment.

Before the paint was applied, here's the shoulder turret



 Inspired by this I started 4 slightly bigger nes for the MegaGargant project

Observation platform with more detail

Big Shoota final location

Painting begins - same winter scheme as my other Blood Axes

What's that coming over the hill, is it a Gargant?

Yes - we're starting to get this one ready for the paint shop - sadly just as I go back to work so won't have any painting time, as my weekends are still full of the house that's never fixed! :(

Today's progress:

Gaze of Mork wires/piping



More exhausts, plates, patches and a door with a port hole!



Front view of the head - with that drooping brow and a monocle with trailing pipe on the right, it looks like Patrick Moore!


Observation platform, complete with wind speed and direction indicator and stereoscopic rangefinder! That's how Blood Axes roll!


The phallic gun was made bigger, because well he needed it!



All the gubbinz attached including the tiled/shingled roof of the grot oilers hut (behind the big exhaust).


Just needs the arms rebuilding and the right shoulder kannon turret adding.

It's Grrrreat Gargant

Been covering the card plates with styrene ones, since Christmas - it's getting tiring now.Oh and don't mention rivets - seriously! I've had a little fun adding engine details and some platforms at the back for Grot Oilers and Riggers - quite a bit more to do and I'm working on the house all this week and back at work on Monday! :(
