Ork-Genestealer Hybrids

From The Damocles Gulf Crusade by Tempus Fugitives:

They could maybe use a little putty to smooth out the shoulder joints a touch, and a Stealer head on one or two of 'em wouldn't have gone amiss, but they look pretty cool. The Ork torsos (and the Kroot torsos in the other thread) have more room for the extra arms than the Catachans I used as the basis for my hybrids, gives 'em a less cramped look.

I need to see if I've got any pictures of my Hybrids lying around.

Hmm, nice work, will have to try something similar one day with my collection of very old stealer models.

Haha....never thought of doing that

If you want to pick it up a notch, here's a few things to consider:

breathing holes: all nids have them, 3 on each side on both the head and tail making 12 total

carapace: all nids also have 5 pieces of chitin on their forheads

tail: I do beleive all nids have a tail

I know they're stealers, not necessarily true ble nids, but these would definatly make them more nidlike.

Units are converted as described in the Damocles Gulf Crusade, "they remain sufficiently Orky to not be smashed, but have multiple limbs and razor sharp claws."

Those are all good ideas though, I just think the Orks would notice all of those and become suspicious.

They kill each other anyways, don't they?

Why blue?

[The Tomato]

Blue is the deafult collor of the really old plastic, for some reason they thought this was a good idea...

Even unpainted, blue plastic makes a model feel more alien
