So, regular followers of my VC blog will have saw i started work on a new (old) army. 41 plague bearers... This is the photo of the first 5;



I've now cut and put together the next 5; bringing me to 11/41.



but wait you see only 10? well, here is a special model that was the most difficult build i've ever had, yet he looks so simple is his raw plastic form; the Herald with staff of nurgle.



this log has 1 month to be complete.. well a month and a bit. it's deadline is mid september, finished and painted. So, unlike my other logs, expect this one to get major updates every few days without me wondering off to start another project.

Looks really cool. I like the skull staff the model has.

thanks for the comment ninja! now, i have to ask for some opinions on army lists.

Option 1;

Herald of nurgle, staff of nurgle
20 plague bearers with full command and icon
20 plague bearers with full command and icon

option 2;

herald of nurgle
20 plague bearers with full command and icon
5 seekers of slanesh full command icon
3 flamers with the upgraded dude.

my prefrence is for the second. i should explain its a 750pt game, 1+ core, 1 un-named hero, 1 special 1 rare. i feel the second list would give the right combination of fire power, toughness and flanking power.

comments?

Sorry for the late response. I would go with the second option. It allows you to be more versitile on the battle field, plus it would be more fun to paint.
Send me a friend invite and a personal message if you need any quick painting adive.

Great work converting the bloodletter kits to plague bearers might steal that idea eventually. I'd probably go with list 2 as it seems ore fun and interesting to both paint and play. 2 blocks would probably be more effective just dull!

thanks for the advice! think i will go with the flamer/seeker option, lowers my numbers, but gives me alot more firepower.

update time; here's the herald at about 60-70%.




C&C?
