I should be more specific, and offer some criticism so...

I like the style, but I would greenstuff the gaps (shoulder to arm). Maybe greenstuff a strap where the shoulder fist emblem is attached to the arm? Also, with a camera that uses batteries I'd go with Lithium cells (if you aren't already), and try a slightly lower angle.

good models but satori has pointed out that the angle isn't the best

I really like the theme this has to it. What colours will you use for painting?

still haven't decided what colours I'll use on this warband..... still got to finish the others pit fighters and get an Ogre and Dwarf Slayer as well. once I have all of the minis sorted I'll sit down and work out what colours I want.

Not sure if its just the angle but you're using orc arms no? I always thought that ended up looking a bit wonky as it just isn't proportional to human bodies, even big ones like marauders and catachans. Still to each his own

VERY COOL LOOKING STUFF! The Lads would also look TERRIFIC as Chaos War Band...I like the Pit Fighter theme better, but that's just moi. GREAT piece of kit bashing; keep up the GOOD WORK! Pit fighters [WIP] 544694

Interesting conversions - I like them! Looking forward to seeing the warband develop.

The above "Greek" style Pit fighters are NO more I re-converted them into a Death Squad Imperial Guard Squad. No survivors.....this warband has been placed on hold till I can get more figs.
