Okay, the theme of my army is a purple ork rock back (the purple being tattoos). But I realised that apart from my Warboss I'm lacking any serious.... visual cues to my claim.
I'm going to put a greenstuff headset onto my warphead so he can be the light and sound manager, the stompa is getting a guitar, but does anyone have any idea how to mass give the boyz the feel of revellers at a rock concert without converting the existing models? (Eg can I do it just by adding instead of changing?)

For a taster of my army.... The goffs.

Not to be rude, but I do believe the original question is yet to be answered:

What makes a mosh pit a mosh pit?

Its a very difficult task to create the feeling of an Mosh Pit i guess. Since overall a mosh pit makes it a mosh pit based on the behavior of the crowd e.a. voilence/cheering/lightners in the air and such. All i can come up with is some groupies vibe, Fan T-shirts, Mohawks and other exentric hairstyles in the color of the band etc (purple in your case) Glowing Sticks, Home made banners saying how much the band rocks etcetera. But really i can't come up with anything else than that, given the little information you gave us. Try explaning it a bit more in detail what you want to put together here and im sure you'll get more responce.

On a critique note, i'm not really sure about the whole purple ork thingy like those in the example. You said you only make the Tattoos purple, yet it seems the ork is all purple so its a bit of an overkill on purple :P But thats just my opinion and taste. I love those Kiss face paints hehe!"

I'll keep an eye out on your post, seems promising, Good luck!

My figurehead warboss is sitting on a 'bike' that has speakers strapped to it.

My Stompa has a krusha ball (or at least is up to the plastic essembly stage of making one) that is moddelled as a guitar.

The "Nobz wagon" will eventually be a deffrolla wagon with screens down the side, spotlights ontop and a little electronics kit that can link to my music player so I can play Thunkderstruck mid battle.

My warbikes are getting numberplates that say "Sekurity"

I want to literally assault my enemy with a rock concert.
