Convertable Lobbas for Squiggy!

I got to thinking about how often Squiggy would be appearing in an actual game and decided that it would be cool to have these excellent Big Lobbas from Forgeworld available in normal sized games.  Good thing I have a pile of magnets handy so can have my Lobbas and eat them too!

Now I just need to make a call on actual Ork Crew.  I'm thinking I'll leave it open for actual transported models although I'm still waffling on adding Orks to the sponsons

 The Big Lobbas have been built and painted.   On top is the same Big Lobba that you see on the rear of the Gargantuan Squiggoth (on left, and below).

The gun-shield on this Lobba was weathered with a stippling technique that was not used on the rest of the model(s).  I don't think its too out of place and I'll be using a lot more of the effect on future Ork projects.

The forward Big Lobba (to the right, and at bottom) and thew two of them configured for use in a Big Gunz battery.  Magnets are awesome!

I really liked the look of these Lobbas so I'm going to try my hand at scratch building the rest of the battery based on this design. I'm thinking of doing 7 scratch builds to fill out the chart.  Now to dig up some cool Gretchin crew!


On a Dark Eldar note I discovered some wracks that I'll be slipping in while I'm waiting for paint to dry on the Razorwing.  I'd done a quick brush up on them for use at Geekfest and then forgot about them in all the Chaos since then... now that I've located them I just can't let them sit!
