Hey Everyone.
Ive been playing Ogres for a few years now.. Over the course of the last few years my modeling and painting skills have increased, and my Old Ogre army is looking rather tired so ive decided to rebuild my old army..

Heres my test model.

He will be from the Gutripper tribe and Ill be adding Gore((pva glue+blood red+ red&black ink)) after I get his weapons attached and hes all dull coated..

Please, Tell me what you think!
Questions, comments, and Criticisms are Always welcome and in my Case often needed..

Thanks!
The skin color is actually straight from page 46 in the OK army book.. I use a Wet pallet((i.e. a tuperware container+paper towel, just add water)) so my paints are rather watered down and I can mix colors as I go. the only real change I did was add a little diluted red ink around his lips to make them look fleshy..
& The gut plate and other metals are basic NNM..

My goal is that they will all look just as dynamic from acrossed the table as they do up close..

Very, very cool looking model, that skin is fantastic. But why is he on a 40k base?

Its just my painting base.. Its a 25mm round base on an old empty glass paint pot.. I use it to paint all my figs.. Its easier to handle.. Ill transfer him to a fantasy base when hes all painted up.

Zsoulless · « **Reply #8 on:** May 18, 2009, 12:06:22 AM »

Here..
I just tacked his weapons on and took a few Pics... Its almost a shame to smatter him with blood and gore at this point..

((hmm... Im missing a highlight on his Heel))

skraggy · « **Reply #9 on:** May 18, 2009, 02:03:43 AM »

Model looks great but what the hell is he standing on?

Zsoulless · « **Reply #10 on:** May 18, 2009, 03:16:14 AM »

LOL...

Ive added some Blood Gore.. Its nice and slimey and wet looking..

Questions, comments, and Criticisms are Always Welcome.
& Dont worry ill get him on a proper base soon..

ghark Ironskin · « **Reply #12 on:** May 18, 2009, 04:38:08 PM »

CaNNiBaLLZ · « **Reply #13 on:** May 18, 2009, 06:13:24 PM »

i must say that thats a well deserved petgnoblar! this guy is genious! how did you do the blood on the hand?

Thunder lord klement · « **Reply #14 on:** May 18, 2009, 08:23:01 PM »

you are one brilliant painter my friend if that is the standard of your rank and file wow

Zsoulless · « **Reply #15 on:** May 18, 2009, 11:19:59 PM »

Thanks Everyone!
The blood Gore is: PVA glue+blood red+red ink+black ink = Eewwww.. It looks really gross in RL.. No one wants to touch it because it looks like its still wet..
Yes.. He is my Troop standard.. Trick is I already have an Ogre army so I really can take my time with this one.. Good thing to.. Because im not the fastest painter..
Ill look into starting a blog here once I Have my bases worked out and get started on my next Bull..

Zsoulless · « **Reply #16 on:** May 19, 2009, 01:06:48 AM »

I Just opted for a simple base.. Make it easy on myself..

Anyhow...
Hope you like It.

& Im off to Prime Another..

Oniguma · « **Reply #17 on:** May 19, 2009, 01:16:34 AM »

I really like it. Really grim looking skin with nice detail. Can you tell me exactly what you did with that Gut Plate? I haven't seen a look like that before. Also really nice blue. Not too dark not too bright.

Zsoulless · « **Reply #18 on:** May 19, 2009, 01:37:16 AM »

The Gut plate is NMM((Non Metalic Metal)).
How I did it was: (&like I said before I use a Wet Pallet)
Base coat of Bestial brown, then used a wash of Badab Black for my Shadows, then highlighted first with 50/50 bestial brown+snakebite leather, then again with just diluted Snakebite leather, then I did all the Bright highlights with Bubonic Brown. lastley I added a touch of skull white to the Bubonic brown and hit the bolt heads and few of the sharp edges with it..
I think I ended up with a nice aged Bronze Look..

skraggy · « **Reply #19 on:** May 19, 2009, 01:38:37 AM »

Haha if that is your basic basing I would love to see your more difficult. Those bases are fantastical... yes its a word.

ginger rat · « **Reply #20 on:** May 29, 2009, 08:00:06 PM »

wow
very nice if thats basic basing i would like to see a more difficult one then

Zsoulless · « **Reply #21 on:** May 30, 2009, 12:14:07 AM »

It is a Basic base.. just some plasticard,GS,sand, then Drybrush... add a touch of flock and snow

I was considering sculpting interlocking bases then casting them in clear resin(with a light frosted tint) so I could make them look like they are walking on a glacier.. Some paint, a few frozen rats/gnoblars/bones inside the Ice, Snow, Ice sickles..

But I still need to order some more clear resin.. SO I opted for the basic Quick and now bases instead...

CaNNiBaLLZ · « **Reply #22 on:** May 30, 2009, 10:00:57 PM »

oo so thats how you do the bases

looks cool man! so realistic

ginger rat · « **Reply #23 on:** Jun 02, 2009, 05:37:52 PM »

that sounds amazing if your going to do them on glaciers
and how thick is the plasticard
