Calling it done! I did end up making the claw smaller but each digit is the size of a beaky so we're still krumpin

A while back I posted an unpainted version of him and after over a month of sitting in that state, Ghanon Ghazlighter, warlord of WAAAGH ‘ARD STOMPAZ is finally done. Used the venerable dreadnought model as a base and just added a bunch of bits onto him to make him act as a Nazdreg on the tabletop. The black Templar on his back is just some stupid git who got a bit too close to his gun waving a stupidly big choppa and screaming something about being a champion of that big dead umie they all worship, whatever that means. The mini is also full of free hands that represent parts of the lore of my WAAAGH, such as the broken astra militarum plate on the base (the remains of the planet’s previous defenders) the writing of Ossis being green (Ossis being the planet they’re on) and a red star next to Filemon Bomba, a grot that once had the entire warband in his little fist back when Ghanon was slightly too stupid to understand everything that’s going on, but now that he’s catching on, Filemon is starting to feel… radical and red.

Gotta say, I love how this model turned out, can’t wait to finally get him on the tabletop. Tell me what you think!

I love Grot tanks! This is so much fun, and it’s starting to become one of my favorites. Also, everything is GW plastic and Green Stuff so far.

Flgs was running a huge sale on some stuff that wasn’t selling and i picked this bad boy up. When fully assembled it is around the same size as a battle wagon and has plenty of dakka. The plan is to use every bit of scrap bits and gubbinz to make this the shootiest gun wagon proxy. Ik im fs going to slap on a bunch of choppas on that ram to make it look like its used for ramming into anything unfortunately located in front of this behemoth

I’m in a project? what do you guys think?
Currently puting some rivets all over.
Most likely need more dakka
The idea is put 2 pairs of 3d printed caterpillar tracks.

I like the idea of adding wheels to just make it a little more absurd. but honestly I could go either way.

Made these exactly 19 years ago when I was collecting orkz for first time, then found them this summer at a fellow mek's dustiest corner. He had no use for them so I looted them back (with his permission) ^^

The wartrakk is a mix of PVC and Robogear parts, with some 1:35 bitz thrown in (the wheels are from a Humvee I think). Its hull is painted but dozer, turret and wheels are not. And those caterpillar crests were actually cut from a chopped sprue!

The kan is a mix of various toy and 1:35 model parts, with FB skeleton shield, and genuine Forge World dreadnaught feet (they were sort of spares as FW base already had feet molded in it).

As a bonus, there was a pewter Gorkamorka deffkopta pilot. He's actually bigger and better detailed than I remembered, so might be put to some good use too!
