Melcavuk Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 What use would working on a Gargant Battletome be without some Gargants to test it it through with. So plumping for making myself a Battleline Gargant using my Alpha rules I went with: Bog Drinker - A gargant originating from marshes, bogs, wetlands and moors. There hideous creatures can be smelt for miles around as they repugnant odors drift on even the softest of breeze, a fortunate fact for any would be victims as the soft mud masks their heavy footsteps on the approach. Many manifest webbed feet for wading the waterways, others bulbous eyes to stalk in the low light of their homelands. And to make him battle line his specialty is Battleborn - Gargants who have dedicated their life to the art of war, soliders rather than rogue predators For armament I went with a one handed Drake Cleave and a crude Gargant Buckler. Using the name generator he is hence for known as the Marshwalking Wallbreaker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melcavuk Posted October 13, 2018 Author Share Posted October 13, 2018 And because I'm an impatient person here's the start of some paint for his skin, nails, horns and teeth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Melcavuk Posted October 15, 2018 Author Share Posted October 15, 2018 Adding a bit more personality to my Gargants, having such a big model to work with and relatively low model count in the armies lets me try out some things that I've been tempted by for a while but couldnt bring myself to do for a whole army. Some signs need some roughing up but here's the Gargants shield that he may or may not have looted from a village notice board with a handful of characterful signs.

Melcavuk Posted October 18, 2018 Author Share Posted October 18, 2018 Aside from some last minute detailing and adding water effect to the base my Bogdrinker Gargant is complete! Really happy with how he has grown and progressed so far and how the final model ties together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
