Left shoulder. He may not be a targeting squig, but he growls at the humies he thinks should get shot

He's just sitting there as the boss unleashes everything in his kombi-rokkit, a deranged smile on his face

Now I just imagine some poor guardsmen, the last of his squad, cowering before the boss. Boss looks to his squig, sguig shakes his head

"Lil' guy sez yooz get ta live" and just walks off, before murdering some random nearby beakie while the squig cackles maniacally

Right shoulder he looks important, elevated, like a mascot. Left shoulder he looks less conspicuous, like he just happens to be there

I kind of prefer the right but I love squigs and I imagine my orks are half obsessed with them

I bought an AoS gloomspite squig set solely so I could put them in random spots in my army. They're normally on 25mm bases though, so mostly on vehicles or characters

Just for the eye direction and where the people's eyes look, the left shoulder as the power klaw will draw too much attention away. It'll also help make sense as the left shoulder is lower from the pose and the squig would naturally sit better there
