So iv wanted ghazkuls mega armour ever since GWs Armageddon Campaign, but I neither collected orks at the time or wanted the special character, just always been in love with his armour and weapons. now a guy at my warhammer club hooked me up with just that: the armour and weapons(no head or iron Gob) so I went about making me a megaboss without ruining the armour but at the same time making it a unique looking WB. anyway without much more drivel what I want help with is if the tusk gob I have made is "too much" I mean I like it but it also looks good bareface and iv been here forever taking the gob on and off. so my question is really: which do you like best?







Just want the opinion of others as im stumped on this one. cheers.

Personally I'd go for the one without the tusks. But if you really want the tusks, I would make them smaller somehow. It just looks off methinks.

That new iron jaw is way better. Definitely looks less goofy, more sinister. I approve. Make sure you post photos when it's done, yeah?

Thanks man, I went with the shoulder tusks and jaw, just adding some extra details now.

I was thinking when I saw the first image with the tusks that they'd look better on his head... scrolled down and you'd tried that, definitely looks better. Imagine getting hit by those during an assault... They looked a bit impractical on his jaw though as they'd get in the way of shooting and CQC.

The first one looks a bit too silly to me, the second with the horns and gob looks much, much better.

I agree that the second one with the smaller tusks looks much better. I'd be very interested in seeing this painted too.

Well this is how he turned out for those interested, I got frustrated with the horns half way through painting as I couldn't position the Klaw arm how I wanted to. I liked the idea of the horns but they were too much now I fear I havnt converted him enough to not look like a Ghazkull... anyways.






Let me know what you think.
