Stompa Gargant W.I.P.

Wow, you put Gw to shame, they have professions that use like special tools and whatnot, your at home making this by a concept doing and scratch built. Good luck man.

I've been thinking about the weapon... I've seen a few gargants with the chain-belt fed approach, but I think I might try something different. I'm thinking of a sort of giant revolver mechanism at the moment where there's five chambers and each time it fires off a round it rotates into position for a grot to load another shell into the open space.

Of course, that idea doesn't work well with the two barrel design on the illustration.





I played around and came up with a mock-up of what I was thinking of for the revolver approach, but it ended up looking a lot like an imperial guard nade launcher... and I really think this thing needs more than one gun on it's arm, but I'm not sure how to revise it. The revolver design doesn't work that well with two barrels, though. Maybe I should have a large revolver barrel and a small minigun / gattling gun mounted below it? Like a big big shoota?

[mpdscott]

couldn't you have the second "barrel" as the location of a grot that tells the others when the BIG gun is on target?, have him stuffed into a bit of pipe with a pair of binoculars or something?
but as for a revolver style gun, it might work, but you'd have to have a look at lots of revolvers to find a style that you think suits

[Shadow Nugz]

you dont by any chance have a copy of the quake II maual? cuz the super shotgun from that is a good basis if u put a chamber for the revolver behind it

ps. i cant attach stuff, wtf!?!

[nexus-star]

maybe if you want it twin linked and keep the revolver magazine turn one upside down and attach it to the other one

don´t know if it helps but it might work

and a giganticgreatsupermegagoodproject:w00t:

[Shadow Nugz]

if i could attach stuff i would show a maybe idea
how about if i email it to ya?

[Jon Quixote]

I found this, Link, so if maybe we can't help, these guys can give you some ideas.

I hope this helps.

Awsome!

About that gun, what about something like this?


It's similar to your original design but with double pipes and doubl mags makes it a lot more shooty. The mags on the front-pic is a bit wrong, but you get my point (hard to do illustrations like that in MS Paint, but Paint owns undenieably).

And I will leave the detail-doing to you (like the bands on the pipe and such).

Another idea I was messing around with:



I like the double-barrelled shotgun look of Camel's idea too, though. Hm.

[Da Mighty Camel]

I like my idea better.
But that is becuase I think that minigun-cannon-thing looks to out of place. Sure, it's Orks but even their constructions make sense at least.
