Decorative gnoblar ideas?

original thread ↗

I like the idea of having gnoblars scattered here and there throughout my army. Many ogres have their favorite pet, after all. Some models like the butcher, tyrant, and maneaters do a good job of including some unique, fluffy gnoblar bits, but there are maybe four to choose from between the bull and ironguts kits.

I can paint but, when it comes to conversions, I only have as much creativity as I can steal. I'm interested in seeing other people's "decorative" gnoblars. It can be conversions, kitbashes, whatever. Cool ways to make a block of gnoblars look special would also be cool.
Add barrels, or other debris, that the gnoblars can be modeled standing on, in, or around (in the case of unit fillers).

You could potentially take one barrel from the bull kits, cut it diagonally in half, and then glue the two halves to different solo bases to have gnoblars stand on. Or, if you have bits from other armies, you can scatter them on the bases to represent the looting attempts of the gnoblars.

I have plans on making unit fillers that look like little makeshift lean-to's, as well as using chunks of my metal battering ram kit (that I bought solely for the ram itself) to craft some sort of interesting centerpiece for a gnoblar horde... Of course, I plan to (one day) run a 200-man gnoblar horde, just because I can lol... I mean, I have roughly 150 bodies, but only about, oh, 47 of them assembled? :P
38 Gnobs! Almost on my 4th Pack of Trappers! Exciting

Hope this is the kind of thing you are looking for.
