Ork Gargant, Part 2
A lot has happened in the last week on the gargant front. Most of the modeling has been completed and I’ve started into the painting.
I started with a green head on top of a weathered red body. Unfortunately, this made it look like a giant strawberry of doom…not exactly what I was going for. I went back and decided to cover large areas in checks. I’m not done putting on the checks, but you can see where it is headed.
Still on the plate is attaching the jaw, finishing out the engine on the rear and adding a balcony next to the belly gun where orks can sit and taunt from.
Bigred and I sat down with the VDR rules and came up with some stats for the gargant using the epic rules as a guideline.
Monstrous war machine, lumbering. 14/13/11 armor. 8 structure points, 6 shields. Eye of mork (zzap gun) Soopa Zzap gun (same stats as the plasma gun on the warhound) and 2 Soopa Big guns (short-range earthshaker with 3 shots). It will also be able to transport 10 orks. This puts the gargant in the 1500’s points.
BigRed and I are planning a game sometime in the near future to let our titans face off. Something in the order of 2000 points + titans. We’ll take lots of pictures of the event.
