It's been a very long time coming, but the stompa is finally complete! I started this bad boy at Easter last year, worked on it slowly until June due to a spectacularly nasty and long running cold, and then sort of stalled until a few weeks ago. And now it's done. I built the final twin-shoota pintle mount yesterday, finished it up today, added some final rivets around where it's installed at the lower jaw, tweaked a few more rivets here and there, and then installed pilots to the supa rokkits. And now the vast task of painting comes...

So now there are actually a whole NINE kit parts on the model - all but one being figures. But just look how happy the ork gunner here looks! |
|
Here's the twin big shoota pintle installed, all the riveting done, and me thinking 'YAY! FINISHED!' until I noticed the pilots in the supa rokkits not being there yet... |
|
I suspect the boy here may suffer from deafness due to having a Mega Gattler going off right over his head all the time... |
|
Here's the right-side supa rokkit on it's launch rail. |
|
And the left side rokkit - this was the first one I built. |
|
Here's the mighty Deff Kannon as it looks installed, with the new Supa Rokkit shoulder pad installed above it. |
|
And now the Mega Choppa or whatever the damn thing's called. There were some parts hanging off the back designed to link to a hydraulic system to push the arm up and down, but they broke when I dropped it, and I liked it better without. |
|
And finally, here are the supa rokkits with the pilots installed. The one closest to camera is a complete grot, trimmed down to fit. The other two have green stuff bodies. |
Well, I guess I should probably start working on the paint now. Which could take another year.
Very impressive!
