Nurgle Obliterators - Skaven Rat Ogre Conversion (1 of 4)

Here is the first of my Nurgle Obliterators. These are based off the Island of Blood Rat Ogres which I picked up from eBay for about 10 bucks. Combined with some left over random guns and a few Tryranid bits, these things addes some nice points to my Nurgle army

Not totally sure, but I think the head is from the Fantasy Ogres.

Here is a good shot of the Plasma Cannon, Lascannon, and Heavy Flamer. All the different gun options available to the Obliterators make these a fun conversion project. I originally only planned on making 2, but after I started I realized I will definitely be making 2 more... Plus the 300 point addition for $20 is hard to beat.

A left over amour piece from a Deamon Prince kit makes for a nice shoulder pad, and helps add a little more 40k to this Fantasy model.

A Tyranid arm piece? I think? holds the heavy weapons above the head. This view also displays the piano wire I used to add some more detail to the Plasma Cannon, and some green stuff corruption work.

One down and three to go. Updates coming soon...
