Size Comparisons of 15mm Space Orks
« on: June 07, 2017, 06:55:43 AM »
Due to popular demand, here is a size comparison of some space orks in my possession.


First SLAP minis (always on the right) vs. Vanguard Miniatures (on the left, on sprues).

Hope this helps.

Excellent thanks - I'm so pleased with my Slap minis one's, I do fancy some of those Troublemaker/Vanguard ones too though.

considering how much variety in size there is in the 40k orks I'd say this is all good. handy comparisons mate.

As this seems to interest a lot of 15mm connoisseurs, here are some pictures of other manufacturers of 15mm Space Orks.

As a comparison, there will always be one of my trusted Demonworld conversions, which made me try to build an Ork force!

PS: Excuse the bad photos, I took this pictures at night with only my painting lamp available and all my grotz sleeping!

Khurasan Super Mutant, Alternative Armies Space Goblins (previously sold under 15mm.co.uk, now I believe somehow integrated into their Ion Age range), GZG, Ion Age Shia Khan Space Goblin, CP models, Demonworld

They all look good. With SF/fantasy miniatures you can get away with much variation in any case. Who is to  say how big an orc is?
I am going to build a wargames army, a big beautiful wargames army, and Mexico is going to pay for it.

Yes, that's true! With Orcs and Goblins I do like the variation and from eye level during play it just looks like an awesome horde that way. Very much like I always had imagined a Waaagh!

The new Khurasan minis seem to be nice, but I don't have them yet. Postage is nowadays pretty steep. They are said to be a little smaller than the old ones.

I like the idea with rocket driven air balloons a lot!

Thanks Divismal
Should be interesting. I'll post pics as soon as i start building...
Postage is unfortunately what it is & is a huge let down, which is a pity as US needs trade with EU & viceversa.

Since I was asked. Here are all the poses that are in the Vanguard packs.

It's usually only 2-3 poses.
