Just a quick mid-week update to show you my latest Orky experimentation. When the Ironjawz were first released for Age of Sigmar I was fairly certain that the heads of the hulking Brutes and Gore-gruntas would be a neat fit for Ork Nobs. As it turned out I was wrong – they’re much too small although they do look rather nice on Ork Boys instead.
Would you just look at that happy face! Someone knows it’s Christmas!
I’m planning to add a few more slugga-boys to the ranks (hence the rather optimistic use of the words ‘Part 1’ in the title – but that will have to wait until the new year now.

oh! I would’ve thought they would be Nob-sized as well, AoS seems to be generally of the ‘bigger = better’ mind set… ah well, you found a good use for them – looking good!

Aye, exactly – everything in AoS is a size up compared to its old-Warhammer equivalent and the brutes (without having seen them side-by-side) look to be roughly Nob sized. They do have subtly more realistic (or perhaps ‘human-normal’) proportions though so that may be how they’ve ended up with smaller heads on big bodies. Still, more Ork heads are always grist to the mill! 🙂
