You lost me at "it looks too scavenged" when talking about 40K Orks. They literally build their technology out of random scraps and a psychic power in the form of crowd mentality.
They would look great as a Kill Team! I just find somewhat amusing that you tried to avoid the ork derpyness during the process, I mean, the derpyness is what makes me like them, lol
I have a weird feeling that Imperial Guard will get a model refresh, but after that I think Orks will get a refresh. Also...is anything really "Too Big" for an Ork?
Orks really don't need a full range refresh, or even as big of a release as Necrons got, since they've been getting new models a bit more consistently over the years than a lot of Xenos. It's mostly just their infantry that needs updating, since the majority of it is very old now. Some of the oldest vehicles also need updating, like the wartrukk and Deffkopta, and to a lesser extent the Battlewagon.
Personally like the chainmail and plate look, but that’s me. I recommend using the ‘ard boyz and nobz kits though, as a much simpler alternative. I don’t use green stuff or the likes, just everything from the sprue, and the sprues themselves on occasion. They can make for some cool conversions, with the right approach, and only requires some cuts of the plastic, patience, and maybe extra bits. You also can get a custom WAAAGH Nob, by using the banners and some bits from other kits. My suggestion aside though, these look propah snazzy. Nice and tall gitz, those are, and fit 40k’s specific choice of aesthetic nicely.
I'm considering moving back in time and 3rd Edition Warhammer Fantasy Battles. They had "Chaos Goblins" back then, and I got the idea to make "Chaos Orcs" along the same vein. This vid gave me some ideas and inspiration. :)
@@kitbosh I have been putting together a Death Guard army and have been casting a baleful gaze back and forth between the leftover bits and a pile of old Ork Boyz from my teenage years
Im so glad i discovered this channel. I dont often comment, but i just want to say ive been going through your videos liking all of them. Your skill, creativity, and willing to take artistic risks is insanely impressive.
This is a great video, especially with the Beast Snaggas coming out soon(ish), but I die a little inside every time you say something looks too scavenged or that a melee weapon is too big.
I personally would love to see some Nid/Ork mashups. The idea being some weird boyz got carried away grafting tissue on wounded orks until they made hybrids. I was thinking the waaaaarrrrggghh field would be fighting the hivemind for control which could open up more fun rules ideas. Since GW doesn't seem to want to do anything with Orks and Nids
Great vid I'm doing the classic ambot to meganobz conversion, going about magnetizing all my models in my ork army. This is a great tutorial for alternative models
Thanks. I actually started on that same conversion but ended up getting distracted and cannibalizing it for parts. Still, the ambots are great models for ork conversions.
glad you did them my man. people use the Orruks often for Orks, but yours looks unique. I been wanting to see what you would do with the set. I think the last one is carrying a mace that is shaped like a stick grenade
Thanks! Most of the Orruk to Ork conversions I've seen leave a little bit too much of the fantasy aesthetic in place, and I wanted to try and hide it a little more.
I see the cuts you may have or have not obtaind via the filming of this video, you are a real inspiration to do your absolute best when it comes down to crafting the boyz..... and every single boy
I have been working on a Kill Team using the Orcs from Blood Bowl. They can be pretty static, but a couple of them can really add flavor. Love the conversions!
Really nice man. That's a conversion i would do myself, and i could pull off, as you don't have to be as good to convert orks as you do marines, your marine conversions, some of them may be too advanced for me to pull of neat enough.
Gotta say I love the posing of the 40k orkz. Idk what it is but it kinda reminds me of gorillas. Still sick conversion even if I prefer the normal nobz.
@@kitbosh ya I just really love the scrappy mad max vibe to em. These are sick and look like actual BEASTS but they don’t really scratch my 40k ork inch ya know?
@@trek2k409 Sure. One of the cool things about 40k is the space there is for different interpretations and how that can be converted in the models themselves.
Dude, absolutely love your conversions! I do pose a challenge though; converting an AoS Troggoth into an Ork unit (big mek, warboss, whatever). It's something I'm currently trying myself, and was inspired by an amazing artist on Instagram, grotskulls_workshop, though they converted them to Bullgryns.
I had thought about using Orruks for Orks, but then I got the saga of the wolf box and built the Nobs, Meganobs, a box of Flash Gits, and while they are cool they definitely suffer from size issues next to my warboss who is significantly enlarged. After seeing this I will definitely need to use Orruks for the Nobs and use the normal ork Nobs for ones who lead the standard boys mobs.
Please learn the real ork names. You kept referring to nob arms as boy arms and choppaz and big choppaz as chainaxes. Apart from that I absolutely love this brilliant stuff!
Have you tried something like this with the necramunda ogryn gang kit? Im thinking about doing some meganobz with that box, but now with this vid reconsidering it 😂
I was think of doing the exact same thing but making them Mega Nobs.. I personally like the armor and im planning on building out my army into nerf swords and nerf guns as part of the look. So over sized but foam looking is the look lol 😆
That's the point! Orks are Scavengers and there designs are supposed to be Mad Max Inspired! Also Orks will prefer Bigger weapons even it will be impractical because that's in their nature. Pretty much don't know what are W40k Orks look like.
Has anyone try converting 40K ork boyz into AOS Savage Orruk or Ironjaw ‘Ardboyz. I been thinking about converting my small army of 20 ork boyz and a Warboss from Assault on Black Reach into AOS Orruks but don't know if Orruk weapons fit or are they to big ?? As for the Warboss don't know as for what he would fit he's probably to small for an Megaboss maybe a Warchanter, Weirdnob Shaman or something else ??
Nice kitbash Definitely setting me in the direction I was thinking of going for my orks. But uh... The knife was too small? For a nob XD. Your models still tho. And it looked good.
It's for people who want the aesthetic for the Orks rather than going for cost efficiency. There are different ways to go cost efficient and also look good, but 40K Orks are so cheap that it doesn't work out that way.
They look too armored for nobz and not mech enough for meganobz. And have to agree with other posters wtf u mean looks too scavenged that literally what orks are.
You lost me at "it looks too scavenged" when talking about 40K Orks. They literally build their technology out of random scraps and a psychic power in the form of crowd mentality.
ITS LITERALLY POWERED BY PEER PRESSURE!!
@@nolkorr6904 Holy fuck, you're right.
its the power of hooliganism
2:51 "A lot of Ork armor looks like discount Mad Max gear to me."
That's.... that's the point.
I may or may not have had a mini seizure when he complained about that. Its literally the fundamental style of orks.
@Jamie Mccormick he's thinking about Lord of the rings too much and forgot that OTHER SHIT EXISTS.
@@Tokmurok the kitbashes do look good tho
>Too scavenged and slapdash
My dude, that's literally how Orks work. They build their armor out of anything they can find.
I like the Orruks for repping Snakebites since they're Kinda Feral to a degree
The “looks too scavenged” part makes no sense to me. Orks literally scavenge anything they can find and will it to work
Alternate Title: Kitbosh roasts the crap outta the 40k Orks design
In a bad way. Lots of his "complains" are actually core to the Ork Tek. The nicky minaj butt is true tho.
They would look great as a Kill Team! I just find somewhat amusing that you tried to avoid the ork derpyness during the process, I mean, the derpyness is what makes me like them, lol
True dat. There's a certain charm to a 8 ft tall green monster that would duct tape two guns together and *knows* it'll work as intended.
Orks and the people in Mad Max have the same ideas in terms of machinery. They use whatever they can salvage to make their vehicles
best way to convert Orks vehicles?
dip them in superglue and roll them into your spare parts box!
I have a weird feeling that Imperial Guard will get a model refresh, but after that I think Orks will get a refresh. Also...is anything really "Too Big" for an Ork?
Honestly as derpy as the ork's look, the guard is in much worse shape and doesn't even have the xeno biology excuse the orks do.
@@kitbosh I think that the orks derpiness adds to their charm in a way and to be honest makes me want to play them more
Right, the same "refresh" that squats got.
Orks really don't need a full range refresh, or even as big of a release as Necrons got, since they've been getting new models a bit more consistently over the years than a lot of Xenos. It's mostly just their infantry that needs updating, since the majority of it is very old now. Some of the oldest vehicles also need updating, like the wartrukk and Deffkopta, and to a lesser extent the Battlewagon.
@@mrk2210 A plastic Warboss aside from the boxed set one might be nice too.

0:13 Century!?
I was looking for this video a week ago. Now it pops up in my recommendations.
they are supposed to look scavenged/mashed together junk......lmfao
I actually went in the opposite direction because I really missed the older sculpts of the Boyz models.
Based
That's fair. They certainly do have a bit of that old Rogue Trader weirdness and flair.
Im so glad i discovered this channel. I dont often comment, but i just want to say ive been going through your videos liking all of them. Your skill, creativity, and willing to take artistic risks is insanely impressive.
Really like watching your creative process and I respect how you're not afraid to go back and redo parts.
I’ve waited for people to do this and this video is amazing! Thank you
Fantastic conversion as always!
Great conversions and awesome video mate, subbed.
Your content is awesome dude!
Just what I needed
' Appreciate your work, thanks!!
I once turned a kit of regular boyz into tankbustas. The boss nob even had a Rhino hatch riot shield! They were a lot of fun to work on
Looks awsome! will be using this as a reference for my orks
Great video and great kitbash love to see what you would do to improve ork boyz
This is a great video, especially with the Beast Snaggas coming out soon(ish), but I die a little inside every time you say something looks too scavenged or that a melee weapon is too big.
They look great. Would love to see the finished product when they are painted.

Absolutely love the ork conversions, subscribed. Now, if you wil excuse me, Imma go and see what other content you have
I really like these.
I literally just starting to try this. Good job dude

Hey idk if you read comments, but an Ork kitbash I have yet to see on youtube is of Tuska Daemon Killa.
Think you could concider giving it a try?
I see the cuts you may have or have not obtaind via the filming of this video, you are a real inspiration to do your absolute best when it comes down to crafting the boyz..... and every single boy
Blood for the blood god.
I was just thinking about how ironjawz looked like Ork marines
Looking good , I certainly liked the height adjustment to them.
Thanks!
I have been working on a Kill Team using the Orcs from Blood Bowl. They can be pretty static, but a couple of them can really add flavor. Love the conversions!
I've seen a few people do them, and they actually work really well. Good luck!
well that was pretty tame. I expected more engines, mechanical parts and exhoust pipes.
That's awesome. I think I'm going to use these
Honestly this series is REALLY making me want to reconsider what army I want to start collecting
Great kitbash man,I'm loving ur ork vids
Thanks! I've got some more on the way
Very nice! Would love to see them painted.
You just made me want to start a propah ork army.
Can't believe this channel doesn't have more subs. The videos are very well made and edited. Hope your channel blows up soon :)
Thanks!
Awesome builds!

These look so sick dude!
Thanks!
Id love to see your take on an ork weirdboy, I think you’d do a really great job, as always! Keep up the great work and cinematography.👍
Thanks! I have a few ideas for a weirdboy, but nothing solid yet.
I’m sure it would be great!👍
Really liking these videos!
Any chance of a follow up one with a few the models painted?
Great job as always my main man!
Thanks!
Love this stuff!!!
As a fellow ork player, THANK YOU FOR THIS!
Awesomr video, especially as I've just converted some gretchins the other way around, to more of a fantasy look.
Ah, that's really cool. They definitely have a different look than the current Gloomspite Git line.
Gotta say I love the posing of the 40k orkz. Idk what it is but it kinda reminds me of gorillas. Still sick conversion even if I prefer the normal nobz.
Thanks! And that's fair, they do have a very specific vibe to them.
@@kitbosh ya I just really love the scrappy mad max vibe to em. These are sick and look like actual BEASTS but they don’t really scratch my 40k ork inch ya know?

This gave me an idea about making new meganobz
I had thought about using Orruks for Orks, but then I got the saga of the wolf box and built the Nobs, Meganobs, a box of Flash Gits, and while they are cool they definitely suffer from size issues next to my warboss who is significantly enlarged. After seeing this I will definitely need to use Orruks for the Nobs and use the normal ork Nobs for ones who lead the standard boys mobs.
I love the look of the Oruks, and i wish that they would update the Ork boys.
Games Workshop should take notes from this video! If 40K Orks are going to get the Primaris treatment, then this is how they should look!
Nope! W40k Orks are supposed to be scavengers and Mad Max inspired warriors. Not Lord if the rings orc.
These would be awesome for Kill Team
Ah, that probably does make more sense in terms of model count.
They look cool.
Please learn the real ork names. You kept referring to nob arms as boy arms and choppaz and big choppaz as chainaxes. Apart from that I absolutely love this brilliant stuff!
Have you tried something like this with the necramunda ogryn gang kit? Im thinking about doing some meganobz with that box, but now with this vid reconsidering it 😂
Hah, you should still totally try it. I've been eyeing the kit and it definitely has a lot of potential for more organic and less squarish meganobs.
I was think of doing the exact same thing but making them Mega Nobs.. I personally like the armor and im planning on building out my army into nerf swords and nerf guns as part of the look. So over sized but foam looking is the look lol 😆
Nice! Hey think you can try to make a bigger Freeboota Kaptin? woth a big pirate hat xD even got an idea for a name: Kaptin Bighatz Rukktooth
excellent
Merci pour la vidéo

can you do the same with bois, they look the roughest out of all of them
did he say the weapon was the wrong size? for an ork?
Has anyone try converting 40K ork boyz into AOS Savage Orruk or Ironjaw ‘Ardboyz. I been thinking about converting my small army of 20 ork boyz and a Warboss from Assault on Black Reach into AOS Orruks but don't know if Orruk weapons fit or are they to big ?? As for the Warboss don't know as for what he would fit he's probably to small for an Megaboss maybe a Warchanter, Weirdnob Shaman or something else ??
Look real good but to me part of the orks appeal is that ott mish mash sized orkiness
Last one should have kept the axe but fair enough
How long did you take for the conversion?
Probably around five or six hours. Maybe a little longer. There was a lot of experimentation involved.
54 $ and 36$ sure dude i would kitbash this two like i habe nothing better to do
What do they look like painted
WAAAGH
Wouldn't be more easy to convert this before glue the parts?
Who just has this many bits
I never thought I'd hear somebody make a comparison between Orks and Nicki Minaj....
I feel somewhat violated.
I like the conversions, but the two shooty nobz look weird with one boy sized arm and one Nob sized arm.
Slapdash literally is the point of orks have you ever seen any ork machine?
So why only make four of them when five came in a box?
why didn't you do the 5th?
I see you don’t know what a chainaxe is.
those big shoota arms are smaller than ork nob arms that kind of thing really bugs me personally
Is nobody going to offer a collab to paint these???
Nice kitbash
Definitely setting me in the direction I was thinking of going for my orks.
But uh... The knife was too small? For a nob XD.
Your models still tho. And it looked good.
because of the madmax vibe the orks give off i keep calling my ork boys warboys.. might make a few shiny and chrome.
Witness me!
really like the taller one!
Really cool but then aren't you paying nearly $100 for one set of minis?
It's for people who want the aesthetic for the Orks rather than going for cost efficiency. There are different ways to go cost efficient and also look good, but 40K Orks are so cheap that it doesn't work out that way.
