Rise of the Stormgogs

original thread ↗

Hey all,
Been playing Warhammer since the days when Nagash and a Bloodthirster were single handedly wiping whole armies solo. Mostly been a Orcs and Vampires player but always had an interest in Ogres. My friends back home have all started up new armies and I figured this would be the perfect opportunity for me to start a Ogre band of my own.  Bought the battalion, some gnoblars, mourfangs, and a ironblaster. I don't have any characters made up yet as I like to take my time personalizing each one (also looking forward to doing so with a Maneaters unit). Made a few minor conversions on these units and just finished basing them.

Here are some initial pics before being primed.
And a few more.
I suggest using tinypic.com instead for posting pics. Alot easier for the viewer instead of having to click each photo.
If you don't know how to use tinypic, I'll tell you how.

Regards
Danne

Think of it as a magic glove, like Michael Jackson use to wear, you could even model your character up grabbing at his crotch.

First off, nice to meet you too....
Secondly, that looks like a giant pain in the butt, if clicking once is too much work for you then don't look at my pics.  :|

Here is my first completed ogre...

Woah! I meant no harm. Might want to tone down a little bit. No need to be rude, on this forum everyone loves everybody :) just trying to help dude.

Like the blighter. The face has some real menace captured. He does look like he robbed a jewellery blacksmiths as the Ironfist, gutplate and sword look solid gold almost but that might be exactly what you are going for ;)

I'd say a little wash in the recesses and around bolts to add some shadow and such to them would do wonders.

Nice start.

@fragskull I have to agree with danne here, clicking it it does get tedious, and secondly there is no need to be rude to people, simpily because they suggest something.
rant over
good stuff though mate, the metal could be toned down a bit, might just be the pictures though

Cheers ~chief B
when i have a big irongut horde i will start singing "we got deathstar (deathstar) we got deathstar (deathstar)"
Half and half actually, the metal was bronze highlighted with gold but the overhead light made it appear solid. Redid it with a wash to add more definition.

Just finished first unit of bulls and 10 gnoblars.
