Building the BIGGEST Ork: The Mega Gargant for Warhammer 40K

[@OffbeatBuilds]

A couple of people have asked if I can share the files I used to create the Mega Gargant. I never really intended the files to be a public release, so there's no notes / instructions, but if you're mad enough to want to give it a go, you're probably mad enough to follow the logic I used to create them! So, here's a zip of all the design and cut files I prepared in illustrator for import into the laser software I use (lightburn). www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/1d64vgrkhr9r94g3x9kcr/Offbeat_Builds_Mega_Gargant.zip?rlkey=135y0k5129rf7wodve5ft9jjd&dl=0

[@dallonrobbins5078]

Probably(cause I don't have a laser cutter yet... maybe if I get one I 'll have to put it to the test) won't use the files but hey, it's inspiring to see, I definitely need some sort of frame work for my gargant

[@xeones661]

@Offbeatbuilds How have I not known about "laser board" as a material before for lasercutting? This is game-changing for me. THANK YOU! I have several projects that will immediately benefit from this information!

[@warp-smith]

Dude if you ever do some kill team/ 40K game vids this boy would make an EPIC gaming board!

[@KaratePath]

files are deleted. can you reupload ?

[@arandomlostsoul753]

Bro I can't believe you start off your hobby YT channel with THIS monster. That's like spending your first day as a mason building the entirety of the Colosseum.

[@CrYoflukey]

For a small channel the video quality is unreal mate keep up the good work from a fellow ork boss 🔥

[@OffbeatBuilds]

Thanks mate, much appreciated!

[@FranktheBlindArtist]

It’s awesome

[@simarshall2474]

It's been sat on the shelf for about 20 years, but you've finally inspired me to try and finish off my ork great gargant scratch build. Or at least give him arms. Great work on your model and thanks for the motivation!

[@Skeletor4753]

1. The quality of this is absurd. Subbed and can't wait to see what you do in the future. 2.I think you almost did too good of a job putting it together. It looks so much more deliberate and actually functional compared to most modern ork stuff. I also wish you had done a bit more on the painting side. I recognize it is a massive model but I feel like it could use a bit more color. Super great work man I am stoked to have found your channel and I can't wait to see what you post in the future.

[@OffbeatBuilds]

Thanks Jacob. I know what you mean about it looking "too functional". Most of my ork builds probably fall into that category; I take a lot of inspiration from the 2nd/3rd edition Ork vehicles, which tend to crudely mimic 20th Century military gear, rather than the more recent ramshakle katamari thing they have going on!

[@TheScribe_TheScribe]

@@OffbeatBuilds ramshackle katamari. THAT's some good words to describe good Mekkin'

[@georgepilkington9350]

the quality of the build, video, scripting, voiceover, editing and everything is insanely good, can’t wait to see what else you do.

[@OffbeatBuilds]

Thanks George, very much appreciated!

[@tightning]

This is an absolutely monstrous build for a first video, what an amazing accomplishment! The quality of this video is great as is the writing, eager to see what you come up with next!

[@KevinoftheCosmos]

I'm so happy to find this channel. This is the exact kind of content that gets me back to the hobby table. Great work on both vids!!

[@JizzMasterTheZeroth]

Feel like you've been making videos for a decade. Awesome start to your channel, can't wait to see what you come up with next 🙌

[@OffbeatBuilds]

Thanks dude. You're not far off there, this isn't my first KZbin channel ;)

[@randombritteens]

[@TheScribe_TheScribe]

[@2ndhendrix631]

How are your kitbashing videos better quality than most big KZbinrs? This is a gem of a chanmel. Please keep doing this mate!

[@OffbeatBuilds]

Thanks dude, much appreciated. This isn't my first time running a KZbin channel, so I guess I've got a bit of a head start.

[@bricktonmcbricks3969]

Madman over here made a mega project as his first video and made it with production quality that rivals big channels, you earned yourself a subscriber

[@davecamyt]

Great to see you mate 👊

[@OffbeatBuilds]

Ah hello mate! Long time no speak. Hope all is well with you and the Mrs!

[@KevinoftheCosmos]

I think your channel is gonna be huge.

[@madslagsallupinthisgaff]

This is just insane. The build itself, your editing style, and just general personality are all top notch - you deserve 10x the subscribers.

[@lenaistalar8032]

okay, so I stumbled on the ATV-Video first, but this instantly piqued my curiosity. I love what you've delivered here. The model is a giant box of guns, which is as orky as it gets and the video itself was very well made and entertaining. I really enjoy your humor, i was chuckling and laughing more or less the entire 25 minutes. Sometimes because of your jokes, sometimes because of the sheer ridiculousness of the model itself. Long story short: I loved it, I subscribed, I hope you take off to the moon with that subscriber-count and I want to see much more from you!

[@mattiasgamin3891]

I did hit that subscribe button! Phenomenal quality both of the build itself and of the video production.

[@maxbrandt6]

Very impressive project and you gotta hand it to the Orks, they are the ultimate junk yard warriors!

[@AshleyBlackwater]

Phenomenal build dude, this is incredible! Great on you for sharking the files for this thing publicly and freely to, good lad :D

[@fromthewastes15]

Love your dry style and the editing is *chefs kiss*. Keep it up!

[@jordyncollier919]

Instant subscription. I absolutely LOVE kitbashing for my army, and you're honestly one of the best I've seen. I cant wait for future videos, and your work is very inspiring!

[@erikbrown8738]

Ace! I’m working on a Great Gargant, and I too want a suppa’ Doupa’ Gatling gun for the Arm mount. Your housing helped a lot sir. I’m building mine out of a toy frame, and applying loads of foamboard, and plastic card (to keep the weight down, and stable. Ace job sir. I lost my Grot crew through my move to Havasu Az. So I’m looting my other ammo Grots.

[@lcutting87]

Great video and an awesome model! Can't wait to see more from you 👏👏

[@OffbeatBuilds]

Thanks dude, much appreciated. As a big endurance racing fan I have to say I appreciate the profile pic :D

[@euansmith3699]

"Like a chilling metaphor for modern life..." 😄😄😄 What a wonderfully bonkers build. 😍 It is amazing what you can achieve with a laser cutter, skill, imagination, determination and humour.

[@Plagues138]

Man, if your first two videos are this good... I'm stoked to see what else you do.

[@hakbash7588]

Nice job ya zogger. Love how you built it with an MDF frame. Genius. I did my gargants with a polystyrene core covered in card. Love it. 👍

[@DFloyd84]

"Laserboard" sounds like something teenage punks ride in an 80's-era cyberpunk story.

[@toro8219]

Fanatic video, really entertaining. Keep up the good work

[@alanmuir5301]

This is some awsome content, I can't believe this is your first video!

[@zack6557]

Amazing build, was fun to watch! Subscribed!

[@guyinarobe228]

I would love for you and Bill Making Stuff to do a collab together. Y'all's styles are rather similar, and I bet you'd have fun.

[@OffbeatBuilds]

Bill is a legend, though I suspect he'd probably hate being called that. 😅

[@SnailEqualsPain]

Gotta love the effort put into editing and commentary, keep up the good work.

[@LordSubway]

Man, I just watched both of your videos and they are sooo well made. Immediately subscribed! Having recently gotten into 3D printing, the "diy" bug has bitten me and I also became interested in laser cutting. May I ask what kind of laser cutter you use? Take care and greetings from Germany!

[@ristopoho824]

RC crowd might have some dang good looking tracks. A bit useless expense in them though since they are meant to be motorized. Though, having them motorized would be awesome, but a whole different project in on itself.

[@holsson85]

Wow, amazing work!

[@OffbeatBuilds]

Gracias! Much appreciated.

[@XYZdude00]

It needs more contrast in the paint job, but otherwise it is a 10/10 build. Looking forward to see what the rest of your channel has in store

[@birdos3044]

I likenit. It's just there's not enough greeblies on it. It has Greebles, just not enough

[@1_BhS]

Hmm... Not enough Dakka Jokes aside this is really nice and your channel deserves way more notoriety than it has. Keep it up!

[@Azakamak2401]

I have plans on building a mega gargarnt one day. That day probably won't arrive until like next decade and I'll be kitbashing a lot of it to save myself some time and headache, but one day it shall come together.

nice build, tho it look a bit too straight and well made for an ork walking building

funny how human see it as a massive junk fortress while daemon actually see the construct as Avatar of the Ork's gods

Nope. No way I’d even think about shipping that! 😂 I’ll have to go and check eBay now, hopefully it’s not a scam seller.

@@OffbeatBuilds would be cool.

[@simoncoquin47]

Really good vidéo. I am little envious because i almost end my « Great Gargant » For sure we don’t built them from the same way… But you did a great work . We don’t have the same vision of those colossal Titans but they are Awsome. I Hope you will craft other Orky créations. Well done and keep going on 😄

[@OffbeatBuilds]

Thanks Simon. I think that's the beauty of Orks as a faction, there's so much room for personal interpretation, almost any approach can be justified! I'll definitely be tackling some more Orky projects, they're the army I'm always pulled towards over my 20ish years in the hobby. Probably because of all of the modelling opportunities.

[@acrpprca6951]

What's the source on the rivets?

[@TheScribe_TheScribe]

yes, I did hit that subscribe button for this glorious monument to Gork . . . I mean . . . Mork. I can't fault any of the construction. I would have preferred an obnoxiously brighter color than the black/gray chosen, but that's an aesthetic choice and because Orks can't spell aesthetics, I'm sure it doesn't matter. Mebbe enuff Dakka. Mebbe.
