Miniature Monday: Chaos Ogre Standard Bearer

Some of you may have seen the early WIP I posted a month ago or something (probably even more) that is now finally finished! Yep it took some time to finish, mainly due to painting on other projects instead. But I finally came around and did the last bits on this dude.

So as you can see he is a more or less an ordinary Irongut but painted to better fit into my blue WoC army. I also changed the shield on his shoulder to an old 4th/5th ed Chaos Warrior shield and added another banner to the banner. Why? Well I like banners :)

I'm happy with the end result and I hope you like it as well. Will probably take some time before this unit is done as I have ton of other stuff to do right now, but I will probably add a model or two here and there just because it's fun to paint them up.

Comments are welcome as always and if you have any tip on how to further 'Chaos:fy' the Ironguts please let me know.

  1. Nicely done. I too have been struggling in how to not only chaosify them more, but to make them look like they are wearing Heavy Armor... I just wish my Greenstuff skills were good enough to do chainmail... Sadly, it isn't...

    I love the blue skintones. I need to figure out a way to do it but with P3 paints.

  2. One thing I was planning to do (I even bought enough to do it), was to give each ogre one of the Masks from the 40k Defiler. I mocked up a Musician some time ago, but never finished it due to not being able to get the look I was wanting as far as their armor went.

    Take a look

  3. YourSwordisMine - Thanks mate, yeah making armour that looks like heavy armour would have been awesome, but my GS skills aren't up for that either. And it would take to much time to try right now. I have never used P3 paints so I can't help you with that I'm afraid.

    Love the masks you have done on the ogres, looks great and is an idea I have thought about as well. Just don't have the bitz but your ogres looks great so far.

    Cheers!

  4. Thanks. I need to get back to working on them. I have 12 (2 units of 6) just sitting gathering dust... Now that I am seriously working on my WoC army again, I really should get them done. Part of me kept hoping we'd have seen actual plastic Chaos Ogres since I last worked on them...
