How True! That is why I am asking if I have stepped beyond my ork fu on this big shoota.
I am thinking of lowering it down the back a bit and have it kinda rising up from the back a bit instead of just over his head. Automatically Appended Next Post: well, I am thinking the shoota is cool but positioning is the key.
I am thinking I have 3 choices.
The first one...
over the head
this one...
positioned more down the back
or this one...
over the shoulder
I think this one is the way to go
OPINIONS???

There is no such thing as "Too Much" or Over the Top" in Ork mentality.

I like the second or third option. I think it might depend on what the arms are like for the positioning of the gun though. For everyone here who keeps saying there is no too orky or over the top. Here is a good article from this site explaining the ins and outs of ork fu.

I vote for #3 , if it has a larger shoulder plate and mounted further away from the head.

Make it a codpiece.
Kidding of course but I'm voting for #3, over the shoulder but perhaps closer to the shoulder?

As if on cue, you hear two people singing from the stairwell, and the door is opened and a pair of very smelly, very dirty guardsmen stumble in, completely drunk, and covered in vomit, and immediately collapse unconsious on the porch. You drag them to their beds, realising that they will not be waking up for some time. |

A good tip is this... "plan ahead". Don't build as you go and hope it all works out. Sure, it can be kinda fun this way but in the end you will find problems and things can go terribly wrong.
Plan, plan, plan ahead.

I usually just build as I go. It's kinda easier that way.

I liked 2, but if you add something to 3 to counterbalance the look that will probably work out better.
And this reminds me of an ork penitent engine.
