Howdy all.
VERY long time no post
Typical as it is with me, just when i need to have lots of stuff painted (sorry not ork stuff) I end up getting a conversion Inspiration!
With my Girlfriend starting up a new Feral Ork Themed 40k army, I was inspired to try my hand at a weird boy
We have had the battle for skull pass box set sitting in the corner of the modelling room for some time now and i remembered seeing the Troll in that box and it gave me an idea.
Anyway a few hours a bit of green stuff and bits box digging later, i was left with this.
Its not 100% finished, Still some mould lines to remove and some cleaning up to do (Gap filling and such). Also im planing on having the power cable from his Stick attached to one of the bits sticking out of his back
Anyway please let me know what you think
|
Ah yes. Gotta love it! |

when I saw the thread title, I was dubious, but it actually looks pretty cool, I might try doing the same with my unused troll, maybe making a warboss.
But I do think he needs a different helmet - that one looks too ... sensible

Nah, I don't think it's a helmet.
More like a metal plate hammered onto his skull to keep his brain in.
Nice work, turbo.

I'm OVER 50 (and so far over everyone's BS, too).
Old enough to know better, young enough to not give a ****.
That is not dead which can eternal lie ...
... and yet, with strange aeons, even death may die.

Looks really good.
The right arm is from the ork bikers set isn't it?

I like it, very ape-ish, but it looks appropriate to me for some reason.
Any chance we can get a pic of it next to a standard Ork boy for reference?

It's not supposed to work, yet it does.
I applaud the conversion - now - PAINT!

I like this a lot. The spawn arm really does sell it, but I would paint it just like the ork skin, not some other color.
