				<title>Sasnak and Noggin's boyz</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ Over the past year or so I've been slowing getting back into Warhammer Fantasy after a years-long hiatus from anything pertaining to the hobby, be it modelling, painting, or playing.  Additionally I've inherited a great deal of older, <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(277);'>OOP</span> minis from my older brothers and their friends who initially got me into the hobby as a wee lad and taught me the basics of painting, scenery-building, etc.  Anywho, I've got a great deal of work to go and I decided that keeping a painting (b)log would be the best thing to keep me on my toes and working on my army.<br /> <br /> After completing the second of the army's two giants (slightly modded giants of Albion), I decided to devote more time and effort into the building of my boyz.  The colors are a bit distorted, probably because of my phone's camera, but the finished giant is below:<br /> <img src="http://img97.imageshack.us/img97/1603/img20110208014824.jpg" border="0" /><br /> <br /> In the coming weeks and months I hope to fully flesh out the back story of Sasnak and Noggin, but for now I'll just post the duo's inspiration:<br /> <br /> <li>Sasnak leads the goblin front of the horde and was a rather pivotal <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(348);'>NPC</span> in long-running game of D&D I ran for my usual group.  His trickery, despite his appearance only over the course of a few sessions, fooled the <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(331);'>PCs</span> completely and when all was said and done left two of them just rotting bodies, cursed by Sasnak's master and unable to be revived by any means.  </li><br /> <li>Once upon a time Noggin was the Black Orc warlord of my O&G horde when I was younger and playing back in 4th-6th edition Warhammer.  A downright nasty fellow, even for a orc.  Noggin wouldn't hesitate to slaughter his own mother if it meant victory in the coming battles.  Noggin also transformed into a D&D character and was an anti-paladin of Gorgoth, god of the orcs.  His ruthless means in pursuit of his goals caused no small amount of grief for my <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(331);'>PCs</span> and their loved ones, and he too became an <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(348);'>NPC</span> for the record books.</li><br /> <br /> I plan to more fully develop the stories of each individual's rise to prominence and then unholy alliance as I continue to work on my army, incorporating elements and events from the D&D campaign they were both in into their personalities and shaping them better to the Warhammer world.  <br /> <br /> Below is a list of what I've got to do and what's done.  Green means completed painting, yellow means being painted or <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(47);'>GS</span>'d, red means not started and dark red means in need of stripping or more work than normal.<br /> <br /> <b>LORDS & HEROES:</b><br /> <font color='green'>-Smurfs, Goblin Warboss from BFSP</font><br /> <font color='red'>-Goblin Shaman from BFSP<br /> -Oddgit, Goblin Shaman<br /> -Nazgub, Orc Shaman<br /> -Skarsnik and Gobbla (<span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(277);'>OOP</span> version)<br /> -Azhag the Slaughterer x2 (<span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(277);'>OOP</span> version)<br /> -Orc Warboss on Boar x2 (<span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(277);'>OOP</span>)<br /> -Orc <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(174);'>BSB</span> (<span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(277);'>OOP</span>)<br /> -Goblin <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(174);'>BSB</span></font><br /> <font color='green'>-Goblin Boss w/ 2 handweapons</font><br /> <font color='green'>-Goblin Boss w/ sword and shield</font><br /> <font color='red'>-Forest Goblin Shaman (<span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(277);'>OOP</span>)<br /> -Ghazak Khan</font><br /> <br /> Conversions to do:<font color='red'><br /> -Sasnak, Night Goblin Warboss<br /> -Noggin, Black Orc Warboss</font><br /> <br /> <br /> <b>CORE:</b><br /> <font color='red'>-19 Orc Boys w/ 2 choppas<br /> -25 Orc Boyz w/ choppa and shield</font><br /> <font color='green'>-20 BFSP N.
