Old School 2nd Edition Orks

Hi again! Back to 40K, I'm showing you some Goff Clan Orks from the old times. These minis were released with the glorious never equaled 2nd edition of the game back in 1993. This is the classic Ork model:

 

Kinda usual suspect

Ain't it?

This is a commission work, but I had to face a problem: there were only 19 Orks and a modern Nob to act as the boss. The design is little bit different, so I assumed I had to do something to make it look "old school style". The original model was this one:

So let's the greenstuff works begin:

 

Oooh! I got cushions on my abs...

Greenstuff, greenstuff everywhere...

I have tried to make it look just similar to the other Orks. Not exactly the same, but just to make you recall the lines. I had to soften the face too as the modern models look too fierce and not so goofy as the old ones:

 

And big ears, never forget about'em

 

So this is it:

 

When painted, it looks like his: 

 

 And this is the boss with the rest of the bunch:

I thought of sculpting a helmet for the Nob, but I finally went for the coloured ponytail, I think it suits it well. This is part of a much bigger project, so you will see plenty of old Orks in the future. Let me know what you think about them!
