Cultist of Nurgle with Open Sores





Bristol, UK

Hi guys, i'm starting a nurgle-themed army and I'd like your opinion on what colour scheme to go with for my plagueys.

It's going to be predominantly green (of course) with whites, browns and rusty reds.

Which of the four I've come up with do you prefer? BONUS ALTERNATIVE IDEA: mix it up, use all of them so each marine varies. Because it's like, all chaotic 'n' shizz.

Vote, because everyone loves democracy.

Thanks friends

They really are not different enough for you to worry about it. These aren't codex followers, so mix it up!

I agree. Mix it up, papa nurgle doesn't care about uniformity of colour on his sons.

Mix them up and a few more, chaos marines lost uniformity long ago, so every marine maybe has a rtiny difference to the others,

FudgeDumper - It could be that you are just so uncomfortable with the idea of your chapters primarch having his way with a docile tyranid spore cyst, that you must deny they have any feelings at all.

thanks guys, i will keep it chaotic and mix it up.

on another note, i'm finding nurgle colour scheme very difficult. previous armies have been space marines and eldar, so i'm good at doing clean, bright models with strong lines and edges. nurgle requires uses of more washes and blending and special techniques. if anyone knows of any good tutes for doing this kind of painting that'd be cool.
