[MOC] Gungan Energy Catapult

Hello all!

With the completion of my Gungan Energy Catapult, I wanted to share it with you guys here on TBH aswell.
Lately, I have been making lots of Gungan weapons and equipment, and this was one thing that couldn't miss.
There will be multiple of this catapult in my upcoming Battle of Naboo diorama. Some of the weapons I've made are also posted, down the page, as well as a WIP Falumpaset. Anyways, enjoy.

For the rest of the pictures, head here:
MOCpages

The latest update I have made was the wheel (AKA the battle wagon) today. This battle wagon is used for transport of the catapult,
but larger battle wagons are used for transportation of boomas. They were carried away towards the battlefield by Falumpasets, and sometimes Kaadu, aswell.

The following pictures feature the earlier version. Mainly the same, just without the battle wagon.
For more pics of the latest version, click the link to the catapult on MOCpages in the beginning of the post.

For comparison with the real thing:



And last but not least, here are the weapons I have made and the WIP Falumpaset.

On top of the Falumpaset seats a Gungan, in the carriage I have also made for it.
It's based of off this model, my best reference, since they weren't shown well enough in the movie:

Weapons and other equipment

Last thing for now: the weapons.
In this picture, you see the personal Gungan energy shield, and a booma holder. They both count as equipment,
though the shield is capable of deflecting blaster bolts back to the shooters.

And then lastly, we have the atlatl (which the Gungan is holding), a cesta and some small boomas.

Hope you enjoyed those. Make sure to check out this MOC on MOCpages, since there are bonus pics there.
There's also a picture of all weapons together, including an electropole (even though that's just the Spartan spear from S2).

Thanks for looking.

I think this is really good! It is very alike to the real thing. Well done!

that's a really amazing MOC Magma! Really cool!

I really like your MOCs. You should make a Naboo MOC.

Nice job ob this Gm! It's looks like the ones from the films. Only if Jar-jar was cheeper.

Is there a Possibility that you'll make the trowing weapon used by the gungans(the one like the Olympic weight)

I'm not sure about what you mean. Do you mean the long pole with a booma (aka energy ball) on top?
If so, then that's the cesta which I also made.

No I meant the one that Jar Jar miserably fails at using, it's like a ball wrapped in a rope, it's hard to describe...

I like 'em! They look very accurate compared to the things from the movie.

Very nice work, it looks great with the new Jar-Jar figure
