The base of the conversion is a standard ogor body, the helmet is from the Mournfang Rider kit and the hammer and shield are from a Stormcast Annihilator. Bolgof's gutplate was originally a Vindictor shield.

The model I used is an Orc Ancient Shaman from Knightmare Miniatures, which I acquired in one of their recent Kickstarter campaigns. I really like the miniature, there are a lot of small things to discover. Fun fact:
