Wanted to add some more units to my ork army a couple of weeks ago, while at the LGS I came across a box of orc warriors and orc boar boyz. I knew I had a bunch of slugga and choppa arms left over so I decided to get the warriors and see if I could 40k them up some. if all went well I would get the boar boyz and make them warboarz. the boyz came out fine, so I started working on the first one a couple of days ago, here is what I have so far.





still have to add rivits and still working on something to add behind the rider, either some sort of saddle bag or small engine to represent the exhaust cloud rule. I am not a fan of the hind legs of the boar being a wheel or tank tracks so I will not have any. I will be doing some robotic legs, eyes and that sort of thing though. also thinking of having some syringes sticking out of the boars to represent the riders giving them stims for the turbo boost rule. anyway, enough talk, enjoy.

Nice work man!!!, cant wait to see it painted...

Dems snakebitez alright!!

I will definately have to make some boarboyz now.
Great Work!

This is quite possibly the best cyboar to bike conversion I have seen yet. The gun looks natural and functional, the boar looks cyboared without looking absurd or nonfunctional.

Makes a great basic Boarboy... I think nobz would require a little more flash and some more advanced boars but I would like to see how that would work without making the boars look dumb.

Very cool model. I always worried about the guns being too big on the sides, but you seem to have pulled it off!

Freakin' coolio!

Thanks everyone. going to try and finish this one and start the others this week, hope to have some other pictures soon.

Added a few more details, some stims for the boar and a small engine for exhaust.



also started on the second one. built him a robotic leg, took a lot of work because of all the small parts but I think it looks good.



more to come.

Im not an Ork player but this conversion is a super kool idea i love it

Thanks. thinking of doing the back leg as well, hope to get some more pictures in a day or so.

LOVE THEM! MOAR!

Cyboar very cool. Love to see it painted.

excellent.

I love the cyboarg. I also convered some of these into warboarkers and love the models.

That syringe came out fantastic, by the way.

Awesome work!

thanks everyone. I did some work on the rear leg today too. gave him a robotic hoof and ankle with a hydrolic. going to get some more work done before I take more pics so hopefully in a day or so. thanks again.

I personally like it without the engine, but still great!

I have been thinking about taking it off. I like the way it looks, but I think it is too much. I will play around with it this weekend and see what I can figure out for it. thanks

Finally got the second warboar done. decided to get rid of the exhaust producing engines, it just looked too clunky. enjoy.

Really awesome!

Fantastic work!
How many are you planning to make?

Thanks. I would like to have a whole mob of 12 if I can get two more at a good price from a bitz store, if not 10. But I am just trying to get through the first 5 right now.

Nice boar. Maybe the boar should be carrying the boy's stikkbombs and choppas and he could be holding out a slugga

I'm glad to see you merging both the fantasy orcs and 40 K Orks to gather

Thanks

I had thought about it, but I really like the look of the choppas that came in the box set. Also thought that the slugga next to the tl dakka guns looked a little whimpy. But who knows.

I was suprised at how well the two mixed. I was worried at first, that is why I tried mixing the warriors and boyz first. I would really like to take a better look at the black orc box to try and make some meganobz.
