Presenting the Orange and White Dynamite

A while back I acquired a few Ogres from some TBBers. The one Norse let me have was partially painted and he asked me if I'd like him to finish it and what colors I'd like. I thought orange and white would look good and he said that those were the colors already on it. Cool.

Shortly after that Dave offered to paint me one. One thing led to another and I ended up having 11 of these guys done. Each one by another TBBer and the only guidelines I offered were that the colors should be orange and white. Patterns, additional colors, alterations, anything goes. I only asked that each one have fun with the job. Everyone went way above my expectations.

Here are the first 9. Majortusk has finished one and I'll pick it up at the GenCon tournament. Deathwing has the other and he's been very busy. I've got no timeline on these guys and I'm not in any hurry to get them finished but there have been a lot of requests to see what's been done already.

Here they are:I've lost the roster I was keeping with the names everyone gave their Ogres. I remember a few but I didn't want to butcher them so I'll just let you all know who painted them.

The whole crew

3 Dutch Ogres. Redfang's (added bigger spikes), Norse's natty dreads mon), and Dave's

2 US Ogres. Extreme's and Dakkakhan's (check out those Converse all-stars and the 'fro pick)

4 UK Ogres. Firebreather's, McDeth's(Heresy head), Geggster's, and Indigo's

Thanks everyone!

#33 Krispy Kareme- I really enjoy him too. I love everything you did, it's how well those all-stars came out that I just can't get over.

Thanks for the pics. I love the blood under the bandage and the shading on the orange looks fantastic. I can't wait to see him at the con. Does he have a name?

Great job everyone.

Don't be silly. You did a great job. It's a testament to everyone's skill that these guys look so good.

You'll get to see them all in person soon. I'm going to run this team (obviously not with all the Ogres) for the GenCon tourney. I need to get some Goblins done though. Indy said he was going to do one for me. I'll probably do the rest.

snots if you are bringing Ogres to GenCon make sure you have an EASY way for you and your opponents to track Bonehead.

I used greenstuffed and painted white DUNCE caps for mine at the Memorial Mayhem and that worked very well.

Thanks for the tip. I hadn't thought of that.

I wonder if I have a Goblin lying around I could add to your team...

I'll have a look around and let you know. (Your very own Snotsngrots legacy team!)

it's weird... maybe I'm paranoid... but my Ogre looks much smaller than everyone else's??

no...that's because he's ducking to not getting hit by some thrown goblins!

Or maybe due to the "taking a dump" legs?
