Hey Dakkites!

I have been playing warhammer for ages, especailly with my Warriors of Chaos... which I love . I have enjoyed converting the last couple of models I have had but I wanted a new challenge! So Ive decided to make an army completely converted and themed! Which brings me onto my project....

SAVAGE OGRES!

The idea came from a project I saw at GW where a fantastic guy had converted his Orc 40k army to include some ogres with ork heads, which made great models....I dont know what there name is in 40k but they looked mean. So the theme behind my army is savage ogres.

Charecters - Each one will look unique
Banners - FANTASTIC banners from all the orc kits!
Ironguts/Bulls - Savage Orc heads, wooden tribal gut plates, tribal weapons, Tribal Paint, Great Weapons will be hard though.
Leadbelchers - " " " " , I thought originally bows and arrows but I think Ill need cannons, any ideas?
Sabretusks - Boars from the Savage Orc riders, especially with tribal paint,
Gnoblars - Forrest goblins from the Araknarok kit, Forrest goblins in general with unit fillers
Mournfang - The usual mournfang but with savage orcs on the back instead of the ogres, they have a better feel to them than the ogre bodies they look to static
Ironblaster - Dinosaurs from lizardmen with giant slingshots on the back, mostly a Bastialdon + Stegadon, launching Big Stabba's
Maneaters - Originally I thought Kroxigors, but now Im unsure, they will probably will be specific to what their rules are when I build them

Anything else at the moment I dont think i would have in the army or that I have an idea for. I have already started on the project and got some ideas for charecters and models SOO stay tuned and I will post pictures and updates regularly

What do you guys think of the concept? any help or ideas?
