Grotsnik is a great character, but I don'like his old model. I've been thinking of taking the Flash Gitz body with the mechanic leg, cut off the sword from the mechanic arm and replace it with a pistol. Then add a cybork head and Power Klaw from the Nobz kit. Any advice on other bits hat could be usefull?

Loot and orkify a marine Apothecary medic-arm to represent the Dok's Tools and Urty syringe?

I agree re the mechanical leg (presuming you have the Flash Gitz kit), but maybe a mechanical arm too for the Cybork Body look?

The other option would be the new painboy model and convert it, or use just the painboy bits for another body entirely. Expensive though...

I would use the plastic Pain Boy as the basis and loot your bits box for the rest. I don't like the idea of using non-orky bits on an ork model unless the conversion is well done. Or you could find the Painboy circa 2010ish in metal or finecast and use that as a basis.

What is best in life? To crush your enemies, to see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentations of their women. Grrr.

The old paynboy is kind of small and Grotsnik is big and brutal. Thats why I'm thinking of a Flash Gitz body. The 'Urty Syringe can easily be converted from a normal pistol. As for apothecary bits - they are hard to find here, 'cos our shops have a limited model range.
