Excellent! I love them.
And those guns are like.. Elephant guns. Except they can wield them in one hand. Wicked.

Great stuff again, your GS work on faces is amazing.

Thanks, everyone!

I know, and I love it If there were some way I could make it look more awkward or unnatural, I would. I like the idea of this 500 pound ogre where the commissar has to fight with him to keep his shirt on like a 3-year-old.

Yeah, I figured that I can either have a ripper gun which shoots a whole lot of shotgun pellets in quick succession, or I can have one huge break-open grapeshot handcannon that shoots the same number of pellets, but all at once.

Of course, I'm not yet certain that they will ever be fired...

Yeah, I wanted the "officer" ogryn to look the most officerey. I like the idea that the bone'ead is trying to mimick real guardsmen, like children mimick their parents to pretend to be grown ups.

Of course, no one has yet told this particular ogryn that most of those medals are fake (one is for "perfect attendance" and another is for "best attitude under fire").

They're my ill-fated stormtroopers. If you scroll up on the first page some you can see larger pictures.

We'll need to arrange an ogryn fight

Quick news update: I'm working on the rest of the ogryn in this squad and am pretty far along. I really hope to have them entirely completed by the end of the weekend.
