Silly thought for the day, I know a few folks have made some awesome conversions of Imperator Titans using 28mm imperial Knights. Has anyone tried or considered using a 28mm morkanaut to proxy as a mega gargant. I few bits here, some plasticard there, and some greenstuff for added touches and voilĂ ! What do you all think? Crazy awesome or just plain crazy? :P

When you get around to it you have to put the "Imperator" and "Mega-Gargant" side by side! :)

I seem to recall one of the aussies did such a thing, not a clue if it got painted and used

given the size of some of the truescale models, I'd say a morkanaut would be about right for a mega gargant!

Oh I agree completely. It would definitely only look right with other truescale Titans. Original plastic and metal Titans would look way too small next to it. I'm strongly considering it but need to get more consistent playtime to justify it. We'll see. :)

If I wasn't planning to take a break from Orks, I probably would try that, as I'm already using a 40K Ork Stompa as my Ork fortress. It's hard work trying to make it look epic though, but doable. An Ork Mega-Gargant is on my to-do-list as I don't like the plastic one, but I think I'll likely do a scratch build instead.

Anyone got a pic of it next to a titan or gargant? Hard for my hungover eyes to spot the size
