Maybe I can make this one NOT die. 
So. I have a quarter completed Plague army that needs to finished. I am too pants on head to accomplish this on my own without encouragement. PLEASE HELP ME! I want to get this army complete before a tourney in January. That is how bad I am. I need to start NOW. Anywho, the pics so far.
The Colour scheme:
The fist, almost painted squad, with rhino:
The second, converted squad:
The third, Half converted squad:
The fourth, That has 1 or two minor conversions at the moment:
The Raptors, only kitbashed:
The Obliterators:
The Flying Lord:
The Champions:
I am new to greenstuff, and a slightly worse than average painter,  but I am getting there. Slowly.
Input Appreciated!
(Sorry about the photos. I'l take the on the desk now, instead of with mum's dodgy Ottlite thing  )

Pic are climatic but I do not see too much on them. Next time put many light sources on front or sides of the mini, not one lamp behind them...
Last pic is good and minis are nice

Thanks I am going to take pics in natural light now, or, failing that, on my desk with the lamp like in the first and last pics. Now you know what I have, this is what I am going for: Nurgle Terminator Lord with Chunder Hammer (Plague Bringer) - 165 Nurgle Daemon Prince with Wings and Warptime - 175 3 Terminators with IoN, 2 Powerfists and a pair of Lightning Claws - 160 7 x Plague Marines with 2 Meltaguns. Fistchamp with personal Icon. Rhino - 261 7 x Plague Marines with 2 Meltaguns. Fistchamp with Personal Icon - 226 7 x Plague Marines with 2 Flamers. Fistchamp with Personal Icon - 216 7 x Plague Marines with 2 Plasmaguns. Fistchamp with Personal Icon - 236 2 x Obliterators - 150 2 x Obliterators - 150 1739 points, 10 KPs, 4 Scoring I am concerned about the termies, but they are going to stay for now. If I do this, I only need to buy 2 or 3 things; Chaos Termies, Termie Lord, and possibly a Daemon Prince, but I may be sculpting him for an art assignment next semester

@ Chunder Hammer
I like the conversions so far, and I like the salvaged nature of the project, en-gribbling those variously-painted CSM (purple rhino too  ). Any chance at a side shot of the lord to see what the demon weapon looks like?
On the list, I'm guessing you're using the 3-termi squad to pop down near an icon and wade into an assault in support of some plaguers? I'd heartily suggest you use 10 points to give the fisters 2x combi-plasmas or -meltas or -flamers, so you can also strike them and trash something before providing counter-assault the next turn. Up to you which guns you want to do, your list has a good amount of anti-tank already, though combi-meltas is the easiest way to suicide strike the team into the enemy backfield and get their points back by cooking a tank if needed.

I have to say for a newbie to GS your GS-FU is high!
But as has been said we need better pics to give you some good advice really. Dont be scared to take pcs of each one individually either, its not like there is a limit to the number of pics you can post.
What i can say is that i like the overal look and feel of your army so far and the best tip i can give you is write down how you paint you marines. from undercoat, base coat, any washes and what order etc etc. I did this and I cut my painting time by two thirds as i found faster, easier and better ways to get the same results!
good luck

Thanks guys. I will put up new pics of the lord tomorrow. At the moment I am at a gig at the local youth centre. It's not that great. Frakking emo bands...
I will put up some new pics later.
About the purple rhino, it is from an earlier attempt at a Slaaneshi marine army, before I changed fully to plague marines.

Looking good so far. I like the use of Dark Angels bitz and the paintjob looks nice from what I can tell.
I'm interested in what you're going to do with Raptors that they fit in with a Nurgle army.

Heh. Change them to Plague Marines. They performed fairly poorlu in a game I just played. I am going to change the 1750 list to have 7 terminators and no Daemon Prince

Well, time for an update I think. 4 More Plague Marines done.    Guess which SM chapter I dislike most Great colours, up itself fluff...  If painting Plagues taught me anything, it is that Devlan Mud is awesomeness in a bottle. We have the requested images of the Lord  And Chunder Hammer detail  "Part of the ship, part of the crew"  Since the raptors did very little in the game against Dark Eldar that I had, I am going to change them to more Plague Marines. but then I had a problem. All of my Plague Champs had robes and powerfists, and I had run out of Dark Angels Veteran bodies. Whatever shall I do?  Then I remembered the Lord Azrael in my unsorted bitz box. I had gotten him off a friend when he didn't want it anymore, and someone before him had cut off his combi plasma arm. So I grabbed a saw, and got rid of the sword at the end of the gauntlet, but realized I don't have anymore powerfists. I also realized I didn't have any massively mutated arms. so, I started sulpting a mutated powerfist for azrael.  That's it for now. Time for some more sculpting
