My Ork Converted Painboy


So here he is finally finished and I must admit I'm really happy with the results, from the outset I really want him to come across as if he was already operating on nearby victims, something that comes across very easily when the model he stands in the unit.

I think he needs some little helpers running around to his feet, to make him look more dangerous to the other nearby.

maybe a little bit more green stuff to do to make more scars

from this angle you can see I have used a space marine backpack which works very well in giving the model much-needed size


What I have learned
Not very long ago when the old ork book was out, I converted a unit of ork cyborgs, and I think I'm going to finish the project making them into a new 12 ork strong truckaboy squad with a converted ambulance as their transport. I will also do a new painboy as the nob.

What I would do differently
In this project he's not very big, and as you will no doubt know, big is best so in the future I will probably do a another one which is a little bit more menacing height wise.
