Meet Gork (not to be confused with Gork, or maybe Mork. He's brutal, but not so kunnin').
Gork is an ogryn pit fighter, and a damn good one too. His natural tendency to violence, paired with a brutal saw-axe and a towering slabshield make him a fearsome opponent. He's not so smart though, so cunning opponents are always a problem for the big guy. Until they make a misstep and get cleaved in half, anyway.
Now, you see, at first I was thinking about making a trio of pit fighters, using the other two ogryns from the box. I can imagine the three of them as "colleagues" in the arenas, sort of official attraction of the pit. "Come see the deadly trio!" But now I am tempted to include Gork in the Company of Rust. I can imagine him listening with rapture to the Old Man's deranged sermons, even if he only understands half of what he says. Ah, choices, choices! I must think carefully about it.
Just in case, maybe I'll add a bit more rust around. I'll also switch the base, since it won't fit neither the arena's dusty floor nor the desert wastes of the Company.
My favorite part of the model is the shield. It really fits in the whole "scavenge and make weapons" look. It's gritty and ruined the right way. I had too much fun painting it! Weathering and aging models is my passion XD
