Here is the concept sketch for the Feral Ork Steam Gargant from the Fanatic Display at UK GamesDay 2004.
You can see the resin of the actual model in this picture.
I do like this model (and I suspect we may get a Forgeworld version one day).

Here is a picture (taken at GamesDay 2004) of the Fanatic Feral Ork Steam Gargant.
It’s a very nice model.
Ork Gargant Weapon, actually a brown coal mining machine…
I use to often look at my Epic ork miniatures and wonder if they could exist for real or was real-world physics going to get in the way of the fantasy of the game.
Then I saw this on the web…
It is a brown coal mining machine, but the resemblance to the buzzsaw of an Ork Gargant (or even Imperial Titan) is rather striking.
it just shows that one day there could be huge fighting machines…
It’s big and huge and mean and nasty…
This is a long term project which is taking some time to put together.
Using a WEG Star Wars Rancor 25mm model I am making a living Ork Gargant.
The model does look like a giant Ork monster of some kind and bears some resemblance to the Squiggoth.
It is my intention to add a howdah and add weapons to the arms of this giant beast.
This is really a mock-up to give some idea of scale and final look.
