Mordheim: Ogre Pirate Bodyguard(s!)
« on: Oct 14, 2009, 12:39:28 PM »
I don't think I've ever posted any of my minis here before!

This is Whalebelly (I'm sure you can all guess where I stole the name!  :oops: ), the Ogre Bodyguard for my Pirate-themed Orc and Goblin Mordheim warband.









(This big fella has been sitting, unpainted, on my workbench for about three years!)

Looks nice.

I like that wood leg and hook in his arm.

Looks like a pirate, good.

40K Orks, Warhammer Orcs, Mordheim Orcs, Blood Bowl Orcs. :D

The full wORKs really... (groans)  :oops:

You know how to cut those off right?.. :D

I do know, I just get carried away with the enthusiasm to get painting and forget to double check. Mold-lines are much more noticeable in photographs than IRL.  :roll:

The only mould lines I can see are on the boots, and that could easily be stitching!

Finally finished painted my Cathayan Pirate Ogre Hired Sword (for my "Cathayan Pirate Orc" Mordheim warband, the Gloomwyrms):









Since the longest part of the paint-job was his tattoo, I took some extra shots of it:

Looks great! I like him much more than Whalebelly (although both are cool).

Do you have shots of the rest of your warband?

Great stuff as always Warboss Kurgan! I've been a fan of your painting and converting since I first saw your work on Tom's Boring Mordheim Forum a couple of years ago (the Halloween Orcs were great!  :>D); it's really nice to see you still at it.

Fantastic ogres. I really like your method for skin, and the Cathayan's tattoo is rock solid.
So, I'll ask this question because there's no reason to assume that someone who didn't stop at one would stop at three- how many bands of pirate orks do you have?
If by RAW, you mean "Reg06's Audacious Whims", then you'd be right.

More Pirate Ogres! This time for Warhammer (mainly to be Summoned in Storm of Magic games):



More photos here and here!

So, I'll ask this question because there's no reason to assume that someone who didn't stop at one would stop at three- how many bands of pirate orks do you have?
Three Mordheim warbands:

The Rotmoons (Estalia themed pirates)
The Gloomwyrms (Cathay themed pirates)
The Ogresuns (Sartosa themed pirates)

Plus enough other stuff to make them up to a 2000 - 3000 point Pirate Orc and Goblin army:

40 more Sartosa Pirate Orcs (The Hogwashas and the Cleavermaws)
2 Giants
3 Looted Cannons (Spear Chukkas)
1 Looted Mortar (Rock Lobber)
5 Goblin Crab Riders (Spider Riders)
A dozen or so Pirate Orc characters

Plus a load of WIP stuff! (Wyvern, another Giant, Goblins, Doom Diver, etc.)

Yes, he is sunburned!
