Hey this is my first time posting on DakkaDakka! Hope you like the model. It's my new color scheme for my death guard army along with the bases ill have for them.
Also my first time trying object source lighting. I'll post more pics and stuff of my army if you you guys want.

Typhus is nice, and the base is nice, but Source Lighting Typhus would have been super amazing.

Still, very neat.

Beautiful. Though the above comment makes me wonder what the brightness from the lava as the source light would look like...

Also, that orb on his back that's glossed ever so beautifully really catches the eye!

"From the fires of Betrayal unto the blood of revenge we bring the name of Lorgar, the Bearer of the Word, the favored Son of Chaos, all praise be given to him. From those that would not heed we offer praise to those who do, that they might turn their gaze our way and gift us with the Boon of Pain, to turn the Galaxy red with the blood, and feed the hunger of the Gods."

-Excerpt from the Three Hundred and Forty-First

Book of Epistles of Lorgar

Putrid! (thats a compliment)
Maybe if you wiped it with dead prawn/shrimp a few days before you play it, it would smell right too...
Keep going!

When you call an intimate moment with your partner "the Assault Phase"

Is that followed by a pile-in move?

That brings a whole new meaning to the term "Hit and Run"

Can that be following a deep strike, or do you have to wait until the next round?

This is one of my favorite 40K models, and you've done a great job on him! I love the dark, subdued color scheme, and the basing is well done. I think additional OSL from the magma would only detract from what you've done. Great work!

Great painting!

IMHO, I picture him more in a swamp or something rather than magma..
