Beast of Nurgle

Alright, so here's my problem. I plan on having 7 Great Unclean ones in my army, but I HATE the GW model. I was using 1 Ulatraforge Unclean One (great model) and then I have the FW Daemon Lord (better model) but then I was using 5 Brood Howler as Counts As.....but they've always just not sat well with me. I'd really like to use them as Beasts of Nurgle, and then have another maggot/wormlike model as a GUO. Then I saw the Tunnel Dweller from Heresy mini's...but thought that would make a better prince then a GUO. So now I'm on the lookout for a GUO that would fit the maggot/worm theme to go with the Tunnel Dwellers and the Brood Howlers. Anyone have any ideas or tips....or suggestions?

The brood howlers awesome! It is however a little odd as a great unclean one, but with some wings and maybe a rusty sword, it'd make an amazing prince. That being said, it'd probably be a good great unclean one if you added a sword.
Sorry for how jumbled that was, I was eating donuts while typing.

This discussion is absurd. The mental gymnastics on display here are appalling. The combat familiar gives the DP two attacks with a specific profile. The special rule modifies the DP's attacks, no matter how it got those attacks. The CF's attacks are at AP 2. Anything else is stupid. |

Those are some great minis. Tell me this one wouldn't look good as a penitent engine...

Six mistakes mankind keeps making century after century: Believing that personal gain is made by crushing others; Worrying about things that cannot be changed or corrected; Insisting that a thing is impossible because we cannot accomplish it; Refusing to set aside trivial preferences; Neglecting development and refinement of the mind; Attempting to compel others to believe and live as we do |

That would make an awesome penitent engine! Depending on its size, I could even see it as the basis for a nurgle themed oblit even.
Edit: As for the brood howlers, I could see them if I added some bloat, a big rusty sword, and some assorted others...but I would rather just leave them as Beasts of Nurgle. I KNOW I've seen a mini that's a Giant worm coming from the ground. At the time I hadn't thought anything of it...but now....it has potential.

Greenstuff, if you're going to be that picky. Nurgly things are stupidly easy to sculpt.

Any idea what size that Scarrd abomination is? I could see it as a Dreadnought as well....just add some guns.
Anyone else have ideas on alternate nurgle daemons? Maybe know of ones that would fit my maggot/worm theme?

What about the alternate plague bearers on Heresy? They look really great, and if I was to collect a nurgle daemon army, they'd be my first port of call.
Nice collection of alternates there. Automatically Appended Next Post: Of course, now I read your first post again, I saw you were asking for GUO minis...
I feel like an idiot.

Also, don't you think the Fw Plague hulk would fit as a GUO without the defiler legs (and the cannon)?

The Plague hulk would fit as a GUO w/o the defiler bits...and cannon, the problem being that you're taking a 50+ dollar model, and then only using about half of it.

Lol, don't worry Ghosty...happens all the time while on the forums  Those ARE really superb plaguebearers. They're just not quite what I was looking for.

Mine came with a full defiler kit (ie not just the bits you need) so he could flog it or just have a defiler.

I agree, the Helldorado stuff is amazing....I just can't find a vendor who actually has them in stock.

Yeah, the Helldorado minis are nice. The Troll forged ones are, well umm... no comment (polite version).
Like the dark age skard abomination, or whatever its called, and it would deffo make a good P.Engine with a bit more GS detailing.
