The orcs are one of my favorite races to customize and build, in part because so many customizers online have created new and altered heads for the orcs. To lead my orc forces, I needed a powerful ruler. I also wanted a really cool throne for him to sit on for my display.
You can also read this character's story on my Instragram page.
This figure started with a custom head that was sculpted by Marcus Akin and cast/painted by Dave Castle. I popped that head onto an Urzokk body, and then added some pieces from a Lord of the Rings Grisnak figure. The rubbery armor covered the body of the figure, giving him a unqiue look that stood apart from Urzokk, and the "fur" piece on his shoulders really added to the stature of this character. His sword is from a Medieval Spawn figure.
To display this orc king, I found a custom throne diorama piece on eBay. It is made of foam, but it looks wonderful as a display piece and in picture and it made the perfect seat of power for the ruler of my orc armies!
