Melcavuk Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 (edited) Since its the Sons of Behemat release day, and given the size and immensity of the kit I thought it'd be nice to have a collective thread for all Mega Gargants made to share hints, tips, ideas and feedback. So to get the ball rolling here is my Thieves Bazaar themed Gatebreaker General! Edited October 17, 2020 by Melcavuk 13 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melcavuk Posted October 18, 2020 Author Share Posted October 18, 2020 WIP Mega Gargant 2, a Shyshian Blooddrinker, he’s got a bone to pick with Ossiarchs hunting him for his bones, so he spends his days smashing through tithe shrines and stealing corpses to rob them their prize.

Izotzuhure Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 My Mega Gargants have a slightly, just slightly, different aspect to what you could expect from them. Still a wip, as I might add some more details to the body and base. These Colossi are what's left of the Agloraxi Empire after Khorne destroyed their great city. They managed to survive the impact and lay dormant for several millenniums until a Wise King found the Eternal Flame when he was being cornered by Hallowheart soldiers. He know believes to be in control of this gargantuan nightmares. 9 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twisted Firaun Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 (edited) working on turning an old genie conversion I did from about four years ago into a right and proper mega gargant, lorewise he’s what happens when Nagash takes the remnant worship of a dead god and mixes it with a bisected gargant in order to steal that worship plus the energies responsible for the Sons of Behemat becoming so huge(just deciding between runnin him as a kraken eater or a gate breaker).

Ahriman Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 I have soo much time for this creation @Izotzuhure! Great use of some un-captilized Age of Myth lore too. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great use of some un-captilized Age of Myth lore too. Thanks, though @Grim Beasties should get the credit for the lore, as he was the one who pointed out to me the existence of the Colossi. My original idea was going to be similar, but from an unknown origin. The Agloraxi Empire was perfect for the concept and I only had to change a few things. Now I just need to fix a few details before the second one is ready to be shown! Edited October 26, 2020 by Izotzuhure 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sayuga Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 (edited) Really incredible ideas/conversions. My Gargants still need some greenstuff, but I could take a few pics after work. Edit: Here they are. There is still quite some work to be done, but my Chaos Gargants are coming along.

Melcavuk Posted October 31, 2020 Author Share Posted October 31, 2020 Happy Warhammer Day! My project for the day is working on my “little and often” painting project my Frost Gargant, so far today I’ve done a bit of work on the jawbone necklace and his victim holding arm. Aiming to have both arms, the necklace and bird done today 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twisted Firaun Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 Just about finished my converted Gatebreaker, meet Grog Da Idol Smasha. Created by Nagash from the corpse of a Mancrusher and the remaining worship of The Brine God, Grog targets the idols of rival gods throughout Ghur, often followed by Nighthaunt Processions and the tribes of Destruction alike as he goes about his mission. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StoneMason Posted November 6, 2020 Share Posted November 6, 2020 First post on this forum. Am a return gamer from about 12 years ago. Back in the hobby nearly 2 I think. This was inspired by a great necrofex colossus posted to Instagram. I started slowly and it just came together. A second 'Trash Titan' is coming along also. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kadmon Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 These are awesome conversions! To provide ideas for others, I've linked this topic in our article about the Mega-Gargant, and I'll also link it to the non-mega Gargants when I'll finish that article: Mega-Gargant (AoS) kit for Warhammer: Age of Sigmar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Izotzuhure Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 Finished my first Mega gargant! An Angelus Colossi from the lost Agloraxi Empire. A mechanical nighmare powered by Aqshy realmstone, Fulminax. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thediceabide Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 I'm loving converting my Bonegrinder while I wait for my mantic giants to arrive (boo hiss I know, but they're far better armatures to convert). I'm going with a very fairy-tale theme to the army, I was really inspired by the amazing promotional art GW did that never ended up in the book (why?!). First up is my cinderella themed Bonegrinder. I've got mice waiting to go on his base (from the HPA) as well as a tiny glass slipper to have dangling from his belt. 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
