That I only needed the bottom parts (left and right sides) rather the the whole model.
For those keeping score, a full model is $19.00 US each… $7.00 for the left side, $7.00 for the right side, and $5.00 for the torso…
Canix:
Alot cheaper off ebay 10 full models for $55 recently:o
Willmark:
Yep but I have been recently losing on vultureBay on anything Chaos Dwarf related. So when I started to look at it: Yeah, I could save about $50 US by trying to win off eBay. But this popped into my mind:
- How much time am I wasting tracking down auction after auction.
- How much time am I wasting trying to be the high bidder.
- The auctions are for complete bull centaurs… I don’t need the torsos and don’t want to waste the time of reselling them.
In the end it became readily apparent. I’m reaching a point where I’m fairly well off (not rich mind you 
but time is becoming an issue. I now have less and less of it. So in the grand scheme of things for this instance, spending and extra $50-60 made sense… $450 for a juggernaut… not so much!

Well when you put it that way your right.

Updates:
Work on my first unit of Chaos Dwarfs continues. The unit accompanying my general on the battlefield now has a name: “The Blood Axes of Pain”.
Also highlighted is a front rank model I’m using as my test model.
Next Up are my Chaos Ogres which are going together surprisingly fast. I would imagine I might finish them before the first chaos dwarf unit. If you note, there are wooden sticks on the back of each 40x40mm Ogre base, going to use the idea from White Dwarf #315 (US) page 95… Multi Wound Trackers. Always tough to keep track of so one less thing to remember in the heat of battle while my evil stunties are pounding the opposition.
Lastly I’ve got my first bolt thrower complete. Still needs crew though. I’ve been thinking of ideas for them but I’m not 100% there yet. Bolt bolt throwers (I have parts for another) are going to have mini diorama bases similar to by completed Hellcannon. https://discourse.chaos-dwarfs.com/t/6573
No pics or updates on the orcs as they are on the “back burner” at the moment
AGPO:
Chaos Chariot wheels aren’t they? I may filch that at some point
Canix:
Coming along nicely there love the champs/test models spiky helm :hat
Theory_Man:
Nice job.
Willmark:
Chaos Chariot wheels aren't they? I may filch that at some pointYep. My bolt throwers will look a bit more like they were built by a number of chaos dwarfs rather then the hobbos trying to build them.

BLOOD AXE:
Im planning to do my Chaos Dwarves similiar to yours.(with oop Chaos warrior helmets) Did you trim off the the small knob on the back of the helm? Did you use greenstuff to cover the gaps? Im interested in how you did it. I have 1 figure done so far, it looks good, but Im always looking for a better/easier way!
Willmark:
I actually tried that to begin with. Kinda of how Xander does it in his movies which are excellent, but do not work the best in this case. Through trial and error I discovered that clipping off the whole head makes the most sense. then cutting out a small depression where the head will rest in: then use GS to fill gaps.
Kera foehunter:
Great job willmark love the ogres

Thanks for the tip. I'll try it that way & see how it works out.

Willmark:
For all intents and purposes the next unit is done… the Chaos Ogres! Have a bit of touch up to the multi wound poles and the sides of the bases, plus I need to add a light yellow wash to the bones and skulls here and there.
Funny right now the army consists of following finished pieces:
My general and his throne bearers
1x4 Chaos Ogres
1 Hellcannon- (counts as Earthshaker)
But next on the hit list is the first CD warrior unit (24). Actually, I’ve been working on them all along, I would expect that either they or the orcs will be the next unit completed. Plus I now have my new wings for my Lammasu. An idea is formulating for the rider so I might be tempted to work on that soon. 
Kera foehunter:
great job on the ogre i also like how you did thebaces
AGPO:
Nce job Wilmark! One question - are you gonna use that movement tray for the ogres for games? strikes me it could make measuring distances quite awkward
Willmark:
Nce job Wilmark! One question - are you gonna use that movement tray for the ogres for games? strikes me it could make measuring distances quite awkwardYep I always do. All you do is measure from the bases of the models, rather then the base of the tray. No problem really....:hat off

AGPO:
Yes but I had a problem along these lines once - it was to do with positioning models at the base of a hill so they could rank up and we could see who was in base to base in CC. Two turns later my opponent declared a charge into my flank and measured to the position at the base of the hill. In this case it was a diliberate cheat rather than an honest mistake, but it could happen just as easily if your opponent lines up a rear charge and measures to the back of the bases, forgetting to knock off the inch or so for the front of the base. Believe me these things can cost you games
