[b]Ok, so im an enthusiastic converter and i decided to scratch build a model. After failing miserably with a marine i decided to try my hand at an ork. Now obviously it isnt complete yet (the lack of arms should show this) i would like some c&c, any and all are welcome

Ork Warboss front


Ork Warboss back


Ork Warboss base




Ork Warboss Shoulder (bet you cant guess where its from)


Also i didnt know if this was were to put this, since the 'showcase' is for COMPLETED models. MODs if this is the wrong place i would be grateful if you could move it

Feet are way to small for legs that big. Other than that good work.

I agree he needs alot more muscle definition. Taking a look at all the existing ork models they are bulging out from every angle, warbosses more so than others due to the muscle build up that comes with rank.

Also the feed do seem to just blend into the legs, building them up into some giant work boots would rectify the issue.

Aside from those 2 criticisms, if those are fixed this will wipe the floor with any of the boss's offered by GW. And I wish I could GS that well.
