Cor .. thugs from above! Snakebite Batsquigboyz .. I like em. Great idea, those wings look perfect, spooky. Secret surprise ending extra .. thanks for the laughs
Hahaha, this really made my day, Sid! Imagine them flying into battle like a platoon of airborne soldiers: “def from above!” I love the horned one, very clever use of the Savage bow. Very inspiring video!
@@TheDrunkenOrk I really admire your painting style, too. Great contrast, vey crisp, and the ork flesh looks so vibrant. And I love the concept behind your kitbashed flying squigs. It's such a pity that GW/WH lack such imagination!
F****** Ace!! Ideas?! My first thought given this video and your last one… Mangler Squig-Kopters! And then Herd Squigs and any and all stikkbombz into tank bustas. Cracking’ Work again! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks very much bud 👍 I would say that mangler squig kopters sound cool but they'd work out quite pricey, however I've just used 3 kits to make 1, so maybe that argument isn't valid anymore 🤔😂
This is what I've been doing for a while now. Sucks they're mono posed, but the new ork boyz kits are too, and you get 20 instead of 10. Also forces you to get creative.
The savage orruks can be manipulated with a little work, much like the GW beast snaggas kit. But the new boyz kit is a nightmare 😢 It's a shame there's 2 boxes of 10 in the combat patrol
When you think you’ve seen the best of it all, you come across a trezmendous video like this one!, I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again, fantabulous work good sir!
That's fairly neat concept for Stormboyz. As for the other bit, you just need to play with the sack a little bit more - but not too much - and get it positioned just right, then you'll get your flying t-bag. 😁
Thanks mate ☺️ I played with that sack for ages and found the only way close to getting it right was to use almost the full thing, which gave a very low hanging sackage on the old teste fits. Likely to catch in tree tops and on fences, so thought it best to just let it go 😁👍
I started imagining a nob that was flying with one or more winged hair squigs, though that would require a lot of greenstuff work to cover wings in hair.
It certainly would, but the wouldn't need to be fully hairy, even bats wings are more leathery than their bodies. Basically squigs can be whatever you want them to be 😁🙏
Hahaha, cheers Stuart, they've certainly been a labour of love. I do want to focus on some scenery soon but the cistine Chapel might be a bit of a stretch lol
Damn, dude. You could have done a fairly simple conversion, but you repositioned the legs, actually gave each of them a slugga and choppa, and added some chain for the ranged weapons to hang! That's commitment! 16:55 That to me looks like a dwarven beard.
Quality stuff!!! If you have more weapons than free hands you can always put a huge oversized Bayonet on yur slugga so that it's almost an axe with a barrel. Like that Rogue trader blood axe boss
Fantastic stuff mate! I've had a couple of units if these Squig hoppers for a while now that I've been planning on using as Stormboyz with both a rebel Grot force, and probably a beast snagga force too occasionally. Good to see someone out there not just sitting on them for over a year like me 😅
Haha, I had them tucked away for about 8 months, after I used the grots off the back for saddlegitz. Was just really pleased to get some use out of the squigs. Now I just need to find a use for 10 nids with no wings, legs or flying stands 🤔
Nice! I like me a good kit-bash. The Squigs in that Gloomspit Gitz kit look really cool with the wings added on. I was tempted to add a couple of genestealer arms to my Beast Boss on Squigosaur's mount to make it look a bit more T-rexy for a few hot minutes. Before squighogs showed up a couple year back, I had a couple of sets of the fantasy Greenskinz Boar Boyz (the up-armored/more-generic version of the 'Savage' boar riders, i.e they're orcs that have pants on) and dakka guns that I converted into slightly a more-savage-looking warbikers. I have a box of savage orcs sitting in the closet, I might have to get some some hopping squigs and another set of gargoyles now. ;)
Cheers bud. I'd love to get ahold of some of the standard orc boarboyz, I'm hoping they come back with the old world stuff. I reckon you should've went ahead with the Squigrex, sounds class 😁👍
I get that, though I'm not as bothered by matching official size (except for base size where possible). I also love the smoke stack style storm boys, and they're REALLY tall 😁
Haha! These are absolutely amazing! Nice work! "Focus ya fruitloop, eyyyyyy" new favorite quote lol
Thank you very much bud, appreciate it 😁🙏

Loves da flyin squigs !!
Cheers Keith ☺️👍
That tea bag better have been Yorkshire Gold!

This is such a great idea.

@@TheDrunkenOrk you definitely may have taken kitbashing too far
@@PigGibbon 😂
@@PigGibbon No such thing. 😉
So cool
Cheers bud ☺️🙏
Bet you had fun painting those Green Arses
Absolutely, it was my brush that wore in the crack 😜
Wicked kitbashes - looking forward to more.
Beast Snagga Jungle Fighters when?
Cheers bud 😁
Snagga jungle fighters? 🤔
Some great work there Sid 👍
Thanks Nick ☺️🙏
Been lookin' forward to this one. These look awesome. The paint job really makes them pop.
Cheers Stevo 😁🙏
OMG! these are a EPIC build!! what a super idea!! thanks for sharing!!
Cheers Calvin, my pleasure bud 😁👍
awesome stuff and love the idea of them hanging onto a Flying Squig so funny
Brilliant Stormflapperz! Very tempting to make some!
I feel sure the savage orcs designer who made that 'pouch' knew exactly what they were doing!
Thanks bud, and I'm sure you're right about that, some one definitely slipped that on by 🤣

Awesome minis tho mate ❤
...and thank you, great idea 😁🙏
Stormboy Snaggas!!! Or Stormsquig Snaggas? I’ll work on it.
Stormsquig Snaggas sounds awesome
Gotta agree, StormSquig Snaggas does sound cool 😎
Waaa datz zoggin amazin
Thanks man 😁
When you think you’ve seen the best of it all, you come across a trezmendous video like this one!, I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again, fantabulous work good sir!

These are really fun mate. I’d forgotten how cool some of Squig Daddy’s creations were too
Yeah Tom, there really were some crackers 😁👍
You can always use that gabbag bit on a vehicle as a dangle bit from a rear view mirror, or a dangly bit elbow a trailer hook.
Ah mate, absolutely 😁 I'm doing a feral style trukk and it is now 100% getting trukk-nutz 😝 Thanks for that ☺️🙏
Really complex kitbashes Sid.... Superb models and paint jobs!
I reckon doing an Orky Cistine Chapel would be easier.😊
Hahaha, cheers Stuart, they've certainly been a labour of love. I do want to focus on some scenery soon but the cistine Chapel might be a bit of a stretch lol
These are brilliant, definitely inspired me to do something akin to this. Great work as always!
Thanks, and you definitely should 👍

Very true, I feel bayonets have taken a slump in popularity from I m the old rogue trader days. Maybe its time we brought them back 🤔
Great project buddy and you've nailed it as usual, top work 👍🏼
Cheers Carl mate 😁🙏
I always love these beast snagger conversions you do
Aw cheers Wastelander, I appreciate the comment ☺️👍
Savages Orks : R.I.P

Portable squig artillery sounds like a very functional multi use unit you're shunning there
What can i say? It's only cause I can't think of how to do it 🤷🏻♂️
I love this channel man you give such great ideas to play around with when it comes to kitbashing keep it up!
Ah thanks bud, appreciate that 😁🙏
Wot krazyness iz da drinkin ork up to today ?
Oh the usual flying squigs carrying ork boyz into battle 🤷🏻♂️
@@TheDrunkenOrk sure…🤔… sure
The only thing is I'd reduce the height of the clear base so it's closer to stormboy official height
I get that, though I'm not as bothered by matching official size (except for base size where possible). I also love the smoke stack style storm boys, and they're REALLY tall 😁
Ur welcome boss
Haha, cheers bud 👍
AOS Brute Ragerz would make would make great meganobz, no opponent worth playing against would protest against their use as meganobz or regular nobz
Yeah, I've had a look at them, i also quite like the AoS ogor gorger mawpack but think they might need a bit too much work 🤔
