@@kitbosh I do too, converting minis is really hard to me. It’s nice to see your process, so I can replicate it. Also would you consider showing how you did that cast?
Forget making him just a big Warboss If there was a better example of The Beast, the greatest Warboss to have ever existed, the only Warboss that managed to gaze upon the Golden Throne itself during his assault on the Imperial Palace, then I can think of none other than this one.
this is what i would have imagined the beast to look like too, but with that in mind, vulkan is a fucking legend for having suplexed such an absolute unit
NOW THIS is what grimgors new model should have looked like. A massive beast of hulking muscle with added power armour not a regular boy in a massive shell of metal.
Grimgor got a new model? And how would he get Power armor? Do you mean Ghazghkull? Edit: Ghaz is already suuuper big btw, bigger then normal war bosses. His armor just makes him even bigger.
Now that is a warboss! It is funny you mentioned how you specifically wanted to avoid an ork head in a robot body as that ended being exactly what my warboss became as to gain the size to tower over the battle field I used limbs from a dreadknight. I will have to keep this video in mind the next time I build a warboss and try to incorporate more fleshy bits.
That's honestly the biggest challenge for me, since if you can't sculpt you have to source huge body parts from somewhere. Reaper miniatures is good for that, and are also pretty cheap.
well, if we take as an account the famous ork vulcan had to fight, the one they took for a statue, i guess ork can get really tall and bulky. And i'm surprise Ghazkull didn't grow that big.
That's rrally cool idea! I bought a orruk megaboss for my warboss conversion. It's just a "when the muses talk to me" kind of project that's been going om for 6 months now and barely half way there I think, he's going to end up as a form of super cybork so he's got a ton of shiny bitz on him and are gonna be about the same size as this guy I guess when he's done. A lot more aculpting than what you did but I might look into your builds for some more awesome ideas! Keep it up! 😃
That sounds badass, make sure to tag me when you finish it. You may also want to check out my megaboss kommando conversion to see if it sparks any ideas.
this is what i imagine orks creating in order to fight against the terminators... ps: do you ever paint these conversions? i love the way they look, its just that it looks like if frankenstein's monster was an ork
@@kitbosh It's nice to see that you encounter the territory of Orkish-lore. Since I started in the early 2000 I always wondered why Warghbosses are "only" 3-4 meters high. Maybe GW will see your ideas and start to release new Ork-miniatures with "art-scale".
A bit late to the video - but thank you!! I have this in my drawer since there was a big run on them on FB etc but never got around to building it (as a giant ork warboss of course). Thank you for the many ideas!! (Painting anyone?) PS I liked the Max mini heads - ordered a few - you should be in for a percentage!
so i've never played the table top or anything but this series of videos is really cool and makes me want to start. but can you use that model in your games? how would you decide how many points it would cost and its stat line and all that stuff?
It's a two part epoxy, Congress with a yellow and a blue putty, then you punch of bits of both putties and mix thoroughly. There are other similar things if this specific product is unavailable/out of price range.
I understand that you used the giant as a base to work off from. But after the amount of work you put in and the bits you attached, the model is barely visible. Eventhough you mentioned you wanted to show off the muscles you covered them all up. Waaaghsome model nonetheless.
I love it, its an amazingly creative and awesome looking conversion! but,,, the amount of times you mention wanting to keep a lot of the muscles presence but then cut it off or cover it up is immense, keeping only what appears to be a bicep, some back, and a thigh
I think it was just fine in the beginning before you stripped everything off and cut his torso in half (essentially starting over). Sometimes you do too much IMHO.
