A while back I was looking through my desk cubby holes and found something I had stuck away long long ago, 3 of the old metal ogres.  It was a trip down memory lane painting these.  steveb

[steveb]

[Novogord]

It will be the last one, it is always the last one.

It's always in the last place you look . . . because when you've found it you stop looking

[harv]

Is the ogre with the mohawk and spike an old Blood Bowl mini or am I confusing him with someone else?

[steveb]

could be from bloodbowl, I never thought about it, if I remember correctly it came to me in a box of bits, but you are probably correct   steveb

[Darknight]

I don't think it is - I think it is the Pit Fighter Ogre they made. It was often used in Blood Bowl, but it wasn't made specifically for the range IIRC.

[steveb]

its empire now  steveb

[somegeezer]

Darknight's right. He's the pit fighter. The BB ogre (which I have upstairs) didn't have the flail.
