My nob, let me show you it
I may have a solution.
Well, this whole nob business is going slower than I anticipated because I had to spend the weekend celebrating my g/f's birthday, but I figured I'd throw a few pictures up of the W.I.P. I have so far. I simply greenstuffed it into a pose for photos, as I like to prime and paint separate parts to get at the cracks easier if I can. Grot not pictured at the moment, but he will be on the final model.
He'll be getting a 'Dead End' streetsign, freshly ripped from the ground with a concrete husk at the opposite end as his choppa. I've drilled the hand out as much as necessary for him to comfortably fit it in there, I just have to make it. I'm trying to figure out what the base is going to be exactly.. it'd be cool if I could put the hole the sign came from on it, but I might not have the space for it. I'm trying to figure out if a sidewalk-and-street-pavement arrangement is in order. I might do a simple asphault texture down the middle, with the yellow dashed lines running between his legs and a manhole on the base or something to that extent. This is already going on the next-up base size from the normal ork boyz, however many mm that is since I don't know off the top of my head, so that he can fit the carrying grot on with him.
I may actually rebase my orks for cityfight terrain, as their current 'brown-rocks' terrain is starting to bore me.
