OK so I have a certain procrastinating client that need 1K of Black Legion done for the team tourney at Adepticon. So here I go trying to get them done in 19 days! It's a small list so I'm thinking I'm up for it. These guys will be a one-shot army and sold on ebay after the event.

The list:

Daemon Prince MoS

5 Plaguemarines 2 Meltas PF Aspiring Champion Rhino

5 Plaguemarines 2 Meltas PF Aspiring Champion Rhino

Land Raider

(I realize that this is well short of 1K but his teammates are supplying the rest of the army)

The trick here is to make some Plague Marines that look like Black Legion not using the current Plague Marine models (which look like ASS). So I'm doing some Dremeling/Sculpting/converting to make them still look in line with the Black Legion, but obviously devout of Pappa Nurgle. Dug up some BL shoulder pads to help keep the squads cohesive as well.

So here's the first three off the build table:

Aspiring Champion:

Melta gunners:

So there's the beginnings... just a few hours work but I like them so far! Hopefully the next 7 will be along shortly!

**Platuan4th**

And I thought I was behind on my army(got 2 Vendettas and a Valk left to do for the 40K TT).

**Flashman**

Loving the beer bellies on those Nurgle marines. Nicely sculpted. Good luck with getting it all done in time.

**Qualude**

Yep. Looks good. Just remember, even though they're black legion they'd still vomit in your face

**SlaveToDorkness**

OK, three more guys done!

Got the second Apsiring champion

Melta Gunner

Regular Trooper

two more regular joes and two Icon bearers to go and it's on to vehicles and the DP!

**Blackbone**

Good luck with getting finished. Conversions look interesting.

- Blackbone

**CommissarKhaine**

Loving the aspiring champion! The guy wioth the horn... is still missing something; maybe some more plaguebearer-like attributes to match the horn?

**SlaveToDorkness**

Ok I got the last four Plague Marines done!

The last Bolter guy:

The squad Icons:

and the last Meltagunner

Next is the almost obligatory Slaanesh Daemon Prince (with that "come hither look to him)

So that makes all the infantry complete, just have two Rhinos and a Land Raider to build... and of course painting it all... with 12 days to go!

**The Good Green**

Awesome conversions!

**Karl Deathwolf**

Good luck to getting it all done in time

. Where does that daemon prince come from?

**Tim the Biovore**

Disgustigly disturbing, Nurgle style. Let's hope you can do it.

**Boss 'eadbreaka**

I love Nurgle, his servants are like the Biggest Loser contestants from hell.

**SlaveToDorkness**

You are so sigged, Eadbreaka!

Where does that daemon prince come from?

It's the Chaos Magus from Inquisitor with the bolt pistol removed (since DPs don't have them).

**kravus master of Horus**

These guys look crazy!

**Black Blow Fly**

I love them all! You got mad skills Nurgleboy!!! I am especially loving the one with the bug eyes! Can't wait to see the tanks.

G

**Menelker**

I feel your pain! I have 1500 points of an army still to finish for Adepticon....

**SlaveToDorkness**

Glad you guys like them.

Added a bit of texture to some of the less converted guys and primed everything today. Not much other work going on this week so I should get a fair bit of paint on them soon.

Although my Maxmini order came in today and I am sorely tempted to fiddle with another project....

**LunaHound**

The knight helmets look very well suited on nurgle.

btw our avatars lol

**miasma**

I'm especially digging the one that looks like a fly.. hideous! which is, I suppose, the whole point. Excellent.

**funksobeefy**

Love the bug eyed look of the plague marines!

**SlaveToDorkness**

Yeah, I thought so too.

Why yes, our avatars are....similar. although yours is a lot more appealing to me...lol

Yeah, the fly eye guy is definitely one of my favs!

**Death Gear**

This is some cool stuff you got going on cant wait to see more

**Black Blow Fly**

My avatar has an eyepatch too! It's pitch black. Lol

**Rutteger1**

Haha, that "come hither" look to him? Hot.

Anyway- awesome conversions, I loved the fly head, and the tentacles flying out of that guy's belly!

**physcosamatic**

sickk

**SlaveToDorkness**

Paint!

So I have two whole days left, but a light schedule for them work-wise. Got to get these wrapped UP!

**LunaHound**

First of all , i want to apologize that i cant find that curly mustache guy that is smoking cigar saying "BRILLIANT"
because that picture is what your chaos army deserves!

And i especially love this army because... they are like IRON WARRIOR DEATH GUARDS
genius... it combines my 2 favorite chaos faction into 1.

**devilkin**

This is an awesome army, I hope to see it in person at adepticon.

**LEEQAEX**

Amazing . I lvoe the painting , how they are black legion infected .

**WaaaghoftheEmperor**

Both meltagunners are brilliant! The first has the cool knight-style helmet and the second has the scull impaled on his weapon

! KUTGW!
