    I started working on this conversion today.  I was too excited to not assemble him immediately.  I also regret this immediately.  

    His name is Morkhead.  I added a skull mask and two extra pieces of cloth.  This is Morkhead after the first yellow glaze.  I'll build up the yellow and do a layer then highlight.  I think I will paint the skull and smoke green to show his proximity to gorkamorka and the waaagh.  But he may look like a greenbay packer.

    Excuse the first huge post.  

    Here is the progress on my army.  You can first see the brutes, then the ardboyz, then the gruntaz and dragon.

    I had them on green bases to be oldschool.  But I am an artist and could not bear to do something that makes no sense, even for nostalgia.  Bases must be a neutral color.  I went with meadow bases.  The flowers tie the army together.

    I do not like the shields on the ardboyz.  They are too small.  So I attached the shields to the ardboyz faces instead of the hand.

    The megaboss is called Rustfoot Facekicker.  The brute boss is called Bonetaker.

    I am happy that I have models up to tabletop standard on my first try.  I am getting faster at painting, understanding the behaviors of the various paints, learning new skills, and doing some conversions.  I have tried new skills like wet blending and glazing and am starting to understand.
