DA'BOOTS (28 mm Ork Great Gargant wip)

 Hello there...!


A Great Gargant is nothing but a big "Stompa", so first thing you need is a good pair of boots to stomp both humies' vehicles and beakies themselves...

Also, you all know that this blog is named "El taller de Emilque" (the workshop of EMILio and enriQUE), because of the workshop of my grandfather, Enrique Navarro I and his good fellow Emilio Delgado, shoemakers in Madrid back in the 50-70's... So making boots is something with deep roots in my family...

What we need? Some junky scrapyard materials, of course, like these:


Nothing fancy, just some cardboard pieces and plastic bottles.

After assembling, this is the result:


We have the general shape, bulky like in a cartoon, but this is OldSchool ScratchBuilding, so let's add some orky details and rivets, lots of rivets...

DA'RIGHT BOOT





Cereals box cardboard, different types of rivets (most of them selfmade with sliced green stuff), cables, etc.

DA'LEFT BOOT





In this case I have added a little 'joke', in the form of the logo of "Orcidas", sponsor of many BloodBowl teams and also of the Spanish National Football Team, proud 2026 World Cup winners...

Together they look manacing enough to stomp a Land Speeder, right?



The sole is full of roman-caligae style studs, just in case...


And the last thing we ask our laborer gretchins to add is some details to the ankles and attachment to the lower body, and we are ready to stomp!... I mean, to walk!


We have now a good base for our project, let's keep scratchbuilding next week!!!

Hope you enjoy, thanks and best regards from sunny Madrid Prime...
