"How do King of War Orc "bosses" compare to Games Workshop?" Topic

I've been looking for a suitable model to start conversion work for my Orc warband. The reason why I haven't just used GW's Orc Warbosses is because they're all pretty small. I've owned the Avatar of Orc Warboss and sold it because I thought it was a bit too large. I essentially use that as the benchmark now.. I want something a little smaller than that model and proportioned more like GW's Orcs. The Avatar of War Orc, while a beautiful model.. is proportioned more like a "human barbarian" rather than GW's ape-like Orcs.

So after doing some searching… I've been considering using a 40k Ork Warboss as a basis, but I've also run into the Kings of War Orcs. I know their standard orcs seem smaller and more human in proportions.. but the leader models seem a little different, especially Krudger. How do they stack compared to GW's orcs/orks. Better yet, anyone have a pic? Thanks.

I obtained some Mantic Orc Torsos in a trade & found I had to use GW goblin arms to complete them (even they are a bit large for the KOW figs, but workable…)

Yea.. I got the Krudger on boar and unfortunately the proportions are too different for me. I even attached GW head and arms, but it just didn't look right. Oh well, great model besides that.

Get some Old Glory Ice trolls. They make nice GW sized Orcs with a few modifications.
