BB Ogre conversions with Heresy Ogre Heads

Post by dwarfcoach »

Ok, so a while back when Andy had a little sale I picked up a little collection of bitz including the very cool Ogre. I have converted him up for my Norse Team (not finished yet but it will be soon, before McDeth copies all my ideas :wink: ) and was left with a very cool sprue of Ogre heads. Yep, you guessed it, conversion time!

Here is the first one I have finished painting, what do you think??

Do you think it works without a helmet?

You're welcome mate :) .

So what do you think, is the extra armour plates under his shoulderpads a bit much?

I generally prefer helmeted or masked figures, but I don't think that head looks out of place. Nor do the extra armour plates.

I agree with Stu, both look fine to me. I'd be proud to field him.

That's really cool! I didn't know if Steve's (Buddle the sculptor) ogres were the same size as mine or not - guess they are! Nice job, my friend! Very nice!
