Have anyone tried to fit the AoBR Warboss on a regular ork bike?
Does it fit without having to redo the entire model?
Anyone have a picture?
Do the proportions of the warboss match the size of the bike?

If you remove the cloth/fabric between the boss's legs, it should be able to fit on for a rough and ready biker boss.

Any more in depth stuff will require green stuffing the legs into more natural positions, replacing the shoota arm with the nob "i'ma holding the handlebar" arm from the warbiker kit.

Hope i've helped dude

It's not a AoBR warboss, but it's from the warbikes kit only, with some plasticard

S_P

I didnt use a GW bike, I made one from scratch but I did however use the seat/gas tank from a CSM bike and just widened it a bit. For the hand holding the handle bar I used the arm holding the shoota. Sliced off the gun and hand, and repositioned the hand, fairly simple. Heres a pic so you can see it. Just slicing off the loin cloth lets the fella fit on a bike easy enough.

I did it and was quit pleased with the results. It was my first attempt at modelling, so cut me some slack.


I did the following to make it work:
cut off his cloth tabard between his legs.
replaced his twin shoota arm with a biker arm.
covered the arm up with decorative spiky stuff to hide how weedy it was.
Added some extra auto cannons to make his dakka more dakkier.
Canted the steering wheel so it was pointed to his right.
The bike is leaning so the bike and his left foot make a tripod of sorts.
Lastly, I put him on a large base and used some of the base kit to spice it up.

Thanks, I can now move forward with my plans.
