the hand looks fine.

the gun looks fine - but presuming it's an energy weapon, does it need some power cables leading to the main chassis?

The idea of the wrecking ball wrapped around the power claw is good.

For the feet, I suggest making each one different

I finished power claw and big ork's left arm.

Here are some pictures of power claw.








And these are power claw fitted with his arm.







Don't look like he saying "come on ya git!"?

It seems everybody saying orky feet should be silly, dumb and crude..
Well, though I like well ordered one, I guess that would be not bad, too.
Then I should work in stompy way.
I will begin those plastic works after completing sculpting upper body.

Thank you very much everyone.



To Clang.

The gun is not completed yet, and it will be a big rocket launcher look like in my first drawing.
Every work I did on this soulgrinder based upon that drawing, though there are something perverted or abbreviated caused by not enough my ability to express that
Thank you.


To SuCHaR.

Yes, Strimen is right.
This guy is a looted wagon with boomgun.
If I do some more work, it could work as transporter with scorcha.
Thank you.

I like them all.
You should do 4 different feet.
One Soul Grinder
One "Dreadnought"
One with the Iron Gob pieces on the bottom.
On the 4th one... make it similar to the one you started on the very bottom sketch... One "toe" sticking out the back & 3 "toes" sticking out the front... Titan style.


Oh... and, as far as your English is concerned... Don't worry about it. It's a bit broken, but you are getting your points across just fine. Better than some people I've seen on here who speak English as a first language!

This truely is an awesome peice of conversion, for a while now ive been planning to do a simmiler thing but as my warboss. warboss that has gone chaos and was mounted on a looted defiler before he was all daemony, with a heaping helping of nurgley gore as well.

so yeah this peice of work has been a great inspiration.
but i have one question, where is the giant head from?

Lovely work so far, the sculpting and power klaw are aces!

What I was thinking of for the wrecking ball was to attach a winch and arm under the engine, like a tow truck:



Maybe that will help visualize things a bit more

As far as the feet go, I think Killa Kan/Deffdread feet will look good.

I dig how in a setting where giant, muscled fungus men ride Mad Max cars and use their own teeth as currency, the concept of little engineering dudes with beards was considered a step too far down the aisle of silliness.

One thing I would love to see on this guy (which is looking ace, by the way) is some kind of chemical tanks and plugs along his back and arms. Would kinda make it look like it was some kind of crazy growth serum-chemical that the painboy invented, and has it pumped into the big ork constantly to maintain him. Kyoto's tank idea is good, just make the tanks look like they are really plugged into him, and not just carried along on his back.

Awesome idea and great sculpting job so far! Really well done.

Hair is completed.
Though it is not satisfied, I'll stop here.
I am tired of sculpting.. I spend whole 4 weeks to sculpt upper body of this big ork!
I'll start some more plastic work(gas exhausts, feet, big and small guns, and hatch) after doing some sandpapering on whole body.

And.. should I made him abdominal muscles?
I intended potbellied and well-muscled warrior(like dwarves!) but one of my friends tells me it is strange that arm is well-muscled when belly is fat.



Skull seems too cute, and hair looks unnatural.
But I will not re-sculpture this again.
It is very annoying... :(







To. corpsearefun.
Dez is right. I sculpted it.
It is not easier way, but you can get better result than me.
Thank you.

To. Dez
Thank you for image. But I think this way is a bit harder to apply mine, because it seems there is not enough room for it.
Its waist leaned toward back, and a grot with shoota will be fitted in middle hatch.
And thanks for feet opinion.. I'll consider it.
Thank you.

To. boyd
Well, At first in my thought, he was old, valiant warrior. But I think an unlucky boy who injected too much OGO is cool, too.
Thank you.

To GrimTeef
Thank you for opinion, but I think that is too away from my first idea. I expected his upper body as almost nude, showing his muscle well like bodybuilder.
Thank you.

The muscular arms and big belly are just fine. It's very ORKISH that way.

If you're not going to do any more work on the hair... I'd say to remove it.
Your head looks REALLY GOOD, but the hair takes it's quaity down.

The skull isn't bad, but YOu are correct with the "too cute" comment.

Still looking good.

and all orks are bald anyway so you can get away with it they wear hair squigs if they want hair.

you could just replace the skull with a plastic one?

Another possibility (if you don't want him bald) is some sort of cybernetic helmet, fitting in with your cyborg theme?

Well orks do use anything available to accomplish the job. With that in mind you could have each foot be different. One foot could be a tire rim, another a part of a ski, another could literally be the kitchen sink and so on.

Wrecking ball at experimental stage and magazin for gun in building.

They are not glued, it is just trial to see how it looks.

Adrift within the vortex of my imagination.

All this work for a vehicle that is going to perform poorly in-game.
No survivability, and also no HTH power despite the looks.

Can you give a 'squiggoth' a big gun instead? This will be a better 'counts as' than a looted wagon.

Its totally not about how playable the model is. It's about how much fun and satisfaction you get from building and creating it.
