I've watched this thread for awhile and as an avid nurgle fan i absolutely love your colour pallet, as said earlier

The skin tones..i love them...they're a work of art.. !

I'm going to base and undercoat my cultists now because you've inspired me to get off my ass and continue work on my chaos! I wanna paint some bullet shields now!

Holy crap dude! You have no idea how many happyfeels that post gave me! Ill deffers keep a look out for your plog!

Hell yeah page two ! Three more sickos to go then, I am looking forward to the family picture.

What's a squad without a half done tank?



Terrible picture, I know.

The cult stuff is looking good, mate. Make sure to include some group shots of them as they squad up!

Excellent progress on the cultists, and they also ride too.

The yellow your using works really well in your scheme/theme.

D

Thanks guys!

And for my next trick... The next cultists will actually have nurgley growths! Yay!

I'm liking the look of this once again! I'm still up in my orkiness so stay tuned in time for an update to my thread

Hallo. So I dont like my current name. It fits decently with cultists but not so much with marines. I need halp in making a new one. It has to be fly themed and badass!

Cacty

LeBugger?

You win life. Dammit Jan.

Jan definitely wins life ! And plague too.
Will be thinking of flies then, I liked that name though? I Guess you could still refer to the cultists as the 'Order of the fly' and find another name for the marines overseeing them...

That was my thought. Some kind of chapter name and tie them together with color scheme and iconography. Now back to thinking!

Alright, here's an idea: The Drones of Yyg (another project of mine related to this) and they could basically be a cult devoted to him like a daemonkin cult (those worship greater daemons right? I'm not caught up)

At first I was like : "Ahahaah Crazy cacty talked himself into building a greater demon"
Then : "Wait, he probably already did"
Then : "How many threads does this guy have ????"
Then : Holy nurgle father of WTF !

But yeah, this guy is definitely the way to go for naming that warband.

yea... Erm. I have a problem. The titany GUO THING is on hiatus because I have an idea for skin but I'm not entirely sure if it's safe.

^^^^ I'm worried that:
a) it will bubble up and ruin my microwave, and more importantly
b) fumes and poison and stuff.

Holy gak, yeah, it does look good, but I would not cook any food in that microwave after that ^^ !
Although I would not put my nose in it, the superglue on PVA stuff seems safer, this is how I did my Nurgle brain guy's brains.
Crevasses on that surface are pretty deep because of the original PVA layer's depth, if you reduce it, it might be suitable for skin....

Anyway, there is no rush, a project that size will never be done overnight.

Can you give me a brief tutorial for the pva-superglue thing? Oh, btw, huge fan of your army!

Thanks man ! A new nurgle guy should make an appearance soon...

Regarding the PVA Glue it is pretty dump actually :

Step 1 : Pour pva on a plastic plate, the more you pour, the deeper the cracks will potentially be
Step 2 : Drop drops of superglue on the PVA
Step 3 : let it dry; quite a long time actually, as the PVA becomes isolated from the air.

You'll probably need to experiment to figure if it fits you needs. I also seem to remember encountering the kind of skin effet the dude in your link mentions. It was years ago, but from what I remember it involved PVA mixed with water, and superglue. The superglue might have dried in surface. Seriously unsure about that though....

Time to increase my alchemy to 50!
Dont you have when you get to the end of a unit, say the last two or three, and the procrastinate painting them?

Well my superglue tube was getting old and misbehaved. As it had become useless to me, I decided to sacrifice it to nurgle and do this quick and dirty tuto

Three more coats applied to the tank as well as some metallics! Coming along fairly well.
