Suggestions for a 15mm Ogryn Sergeant?

[gloriousbattle]

OK I had a go at making one tonight. All I did was give it a nose and I re-sculpted its ears. I based it on a <SNIP>

And you did an excellent job!  Wish I was that gifted with greenstuff and a hobby knife!

He's huge! But he looks really good, maybe if you could find some 20mm ogres as a base model, then they might fit a little better. Either that or since you seem to be pretty good with greenstuff have a go and making your own, just as you want it.

OK I had a go at making one tonight. All I did was give it a nose and I re-sculpted its ears. I based it on a 30mm base as the 25mm base made it look like a standard 28mm figure. (edit: I also made the shoulder armour from scraps of plasticard).

Pictured with 15mm GZG figures so you can compare the size.










I plan on adding some Imperial Guard grenades and pouches at a later date.

Now that is a) really nicely converted and b) really nicely painted.

I'd stick with these, you going to do a few more then?

they are so cool

If size is a problem, would putting together something similar but with a Gretchin/Goblin as a base work?

This Ork/Ogryn looks really cool by the way  .

I have to say that Ogryn is one of the best things I've seen in a long time. Superb.

I really think that is close to perfect for 15mm.  The bulk of the figure really helps/

Sigh.  Wish I could make one.

Thanks for the compliments guys.

I really enjoyed making this first one and I'll be making a few more for sure now.

gloriousbattle – If you PM me your address I’ll mail an unpainted one out to you as a “thank you” for giving me the idea in the first place.

Can i be gloriousbattle for the next week then?  :-)
I really do like that Ogryn. Very well done. I think it is the nose on the big dopey face. Like he drank ALOT of booze or something. Your sculpting does it justice indeed. Kudos to you.

Thanks Grimmnar. You’ll have to have a word with gloriousbattle and see if he minds swapping with you for the week

I only just saw this today. What an incredible conversion!

[Sangennaru]

that's amazing. which base are you using for your minis?

[Inso]

Thanks to this amazing Ork conversion, I have just gone and bought a box of Ork Boyz to make into a squad of them...

...so many distraction, so little time....
