My brother plays Orks and has been working on creating a custom Ghazghkull model for some time. He wanted me to post up his model so far and see what you guys thoughts. Here is his description,

"This is the model I intend to use for Ghaz. I made it because what GW uses as Ghaz is some seriously soft s***. It's converted primarily from a Deffdread. I cut out the middle part of the torso to make room for the head area which I filled with various tubes and pipes made from pre-existing bits/pieces and paper clips. I also cut the right leg at the middle to extend it in a more up-right position. The rest of the model essentially consists of pieces from the Leman Russ, Dakkajet, Warbikes and Nobz kits. Need to do a few modeling touch-ups before I spray it, primarily to the vents and tubes on the back. The set-up that comes with the dread is too over the top for my taste (I know, it's Orks), but as-is for how I have it is pretty weak. My other warbosses have a common motif of chains draping off their upper-body areas so may decide to include that as well with chains draping out of the shoulder pads."

Inside your mind, corrupting the pathways

Looks pretty awesome to me. I think he might need the "collar" around the back of his neck beefing up a little to give it a bit more definition.

Perhaps not, but since GW seems to subsist off sadness and pain, I can't rule it out.

Now that looks like a scary Ghazghkull Thraka. Nice job.
Keep up the good work. Can't wait to see more.
