I wanted to model Ghaz before his rise to fame - I used the Inquisitor-scale model: Krieger 'Krash' Thrax as a base.

He's a WIP at the moment.

Friggin' awesome start!

He looks a little too big (height and size of head) next to the official model, but he looks huge and amazing. I'd be tempted to suggest maybe copying/stealing Ghazkull's bosspole, to make more of a visual link to make it obvious that it's him.

I like the Bosspole idea Ragnar - Im not happy with the one I converted and you're right, I need something in there to make the link back to Ghaz.

what you need is drilled barrels!

I think that =I=-scale figure is too big for Ghazzie-the-boyz, but thanks for making me aware that the model itself exists, it's a really nice one.

one thing you may want to do is incorporate the special character grot that used to carry his boss pole instead of mounting it onto his back... kind of an homage to the first model of ghaz before he got his mega armor.

Youre right about the barrels needing drilled - its on the list of things to do. Thanks for the feedback He is a biggun thats for sure. His right arm comes from the AoBR Warboss - its just a weeee-bit off scale.
