Need some opinions/comments. The lighting in my kitchen sucks so I had to use a flash. I will post the entire unit once I get them all painted. For now here is a plasma gunner.

I like it. A darker nurgle color scheme!!!!

Check mine out!

Wow I'm flattered!

It was really pretty simple.

1. Black undercoat
2. Gretchin Green foundation paint on the armor plates and large "empty" areas including pieces of the backpack. In the detailed areas like the face and the "tainted, diseased" areas I did a heavy drybrush of Gretchin Green so that the black undercoat would peak through.
3. Mithril Silver on the shoulder plate linings, plates on the backpack, and boot linings. (I actually am using P3 Pig Iron on the other models in this squad)
4. Rotting Flesh on any horns and/or skulls
5. Red Gore on the plasma gun
6. Wash the whole darn thing with lots of Devlan Mud (this gives the metal rust and shades the Gretchin Green areas making everything dirty)
7. Highlighted raised green areas back up with Gretchin Green using some drybrushing and regular brushing in areas. I was real selective here. Any "lining" highlights were done with really thin lines. I didn't highlight all raised areas, again really selective. I didn't want him to have a squeaky clean paint job
8. Highlighted Red Gore with Blood Red
9.Highlighted the rusty Mithril Silver with Mithril Silver (mainly just retouched the bolt rivet thingys on the shoulder pads)

Thats about it. I will have some more soon of the other squad members. Thanks again guys.

Very nice. I am a fan of the dirty looking DG as well. I have a 2000 point dipped DG army, and they look very similar to these guys. Well done

Thanks Yam! Do you have a link so we can see your DG? I would love to check them out!

Got some more DG done. Still need to finish a P-fist guy and another plasma gunner. Also need to remove the Havoc launcher from the Rhino. Anyone know the best way to do that?

Your work looks great so far,very gritty dirty apearence,looking forward to seeing more.

Thanks!

Working on a couple Obliterators now. This one is just about finished. Need to do a couple touch ups and a couple more highlights.

As always,fantastic work,really like how your army is coming along and looking forward to seeing more.

thanks for the positive feedback Fitzz!

Looks fine. My Death Guard would march along side yours any day. For Mortarion and papa Nurgle!

Looks very sweet - Ive got a squad of PM's floating about that Ive basecoated green but never painted. You have inspired me!

wow, great stuff

as for the havoc...keep it, paint it and when you dont wanna use it tell your opponent its rusted and broken. very death guard fluff happy

Yea those look really nice man. Good job on painting.

Good stuff. Is there anything Devlan Mud can't do?

I like it a lot just because it's an unusual deathguard color.

Devlan Mud makes me coffee in the morning...

Thanks for all the feedback guys! More to come!

...and here are the two Oblits together:

working on the next Rhino now. this is still a WIP. I still need to paint the "Nurgley" green stuff parts, the tracks, and the smoke launchers. Also need to highlight the twin-linked bolters. But hey, it's an update at least.

I love it especially the red cartridge on your PG!

I love it especially the red cartridge on your PG!

thanks!

Finished the Rhino (sans headlights), next up, another big squad of Plague Marines!

Very nice putting all the small holes all over the armor was a simple but very effective way to make them stand out as nurgly.
In fact ima suggest it to my friend to try on his models.
