Never a shortage of stuff to look at, gobert. Cool game pics. The DG are shaping up nicely. The Eldar were a surprise. I thought at first you were diving into a new army, not a commission. Keep it up!

I’ve gotta be honest, painting those hulls the thought did cross my mind to do an Armoured Eldar Warhost… but I’ve still got Death Guard to spend money on… and several other in progress/not yet started armies!

Speaking of Death Guard spending, I won a Plague Marine Champion on eBay this morning. Sassy Nurgling incoming! Elsewhere I’m tempted by a couple of Biologus Putrifiers for those sweet Lethal Hits 5+. But obviously I want to convert them, so I’m eyeing up some Chosen of Mortarion as I’d quite like a third plaguecaster and may as well have another Blightbringer too. And while I’m buying retail perhaps a Playue Surgeon and Foul Blightspawn to have all of the characters… except I don’t have a Mortarion, so maybe I should get one of those… sh!t that escalated quickly! Maybe when I finish this batch I’ll treat myself?

Back to actual hobby stuff, I’ve not been massively productive this week. Though I seem to have completely abandoned my base layers then do the Poxwalkers and will probably finish them before moving on. The special weapons have had all of their flesh bits done, as have the Blighhaulers and the Heavy Plague Weapons.

The baby blue on the special weapons worked out ok, though the yellow is a bit pale for a shade colour. The purple on the haulers looks pretty decent too. I got confused between Heavy Weapons and Heavy Plague Weapons from my previous post. So the HPWs are pale green and the HW will be yellow, the Blight Launcher though didn’t really have any fleshy bits so his tongue will do that job. I needed to add a fair bit of white to most of the colours to make it work, but it’s turning out reasonably well so far. With any luck I’ll get the fleshy bits finished tomorrow, but that Lord of Virulence’s skirt will be tricky!

Thanks for looking!
