So I just very recently finished my Daemon Prince of Nurgle for my Word Bearers. Let me know what you think










Comments and criticism welcome

The deamon looks great. Overall a VERY nice paint job.
Here's the problem, it might be too nice.
From what little I know of Nurgle, I think this guy is too clean.
Shouldn't his armor be Death Guard color, instead of red?
The leg guards could use a little color. Even though you obviously washed them, the Chaos symbol seems to get lost. Maybe make it silver to match the shoulder pads or even purple to match the sword. Although now that I mention it, the gold leg guard, and right wrist guard don't really match the silver and red armor.
But this is all just my own preference. Overall, it is a very nice model and great paint job!

He's still a word bearer, but I agree that his armour is too clean.
Maybe add lots of rust streaks and corrosion to it?

Very nice though

Nice smooth paint job on the daemon, good choice of colours. I would have to agree with the others he could use some weathering and dirtying up to give more of a Nurgle vibe. It's also really easy to greenstuff boils and pustules which would help. Also have you thought about adding some script or banners as the Word Bearers are usually decorated by iconography and scriptures.

Wow! awesome!

I Really like this except for the gold leg guards, I wish they matched the top a bit...I concur a bit of black corrosion for the silver would nu rglefy it a bit more

He is a pretty good model, but he does look a little too clean. Maybe some Green stuff? Other than that, nice paintjob.

Ok sorry I should put a little more information in next time , I'm not a great painter so I don't think I could do rust strokes and thinks like that without stuffing the model up. My green stuffing ability isn't to shabby but modelling pustules is a bit beyond me for now. Its not actually gold its bronze, the point of the bronze is to keep him in check with my army. I'm trying to keep all models linked with a reoccurring theme. This happens to be bronze pieces, red bolters and red chain swords etc. on my plague marines i gave them red bolters and chain swords and on my daemon prince I have the bronze leg plates not only to fit my army but because bronze just seems to be the daemon armour colour to me. And because I'm not a good painter I'm just trying to get a good table top quality I'm not trying to rust armour and all that fancy stuff in fear of wrecking it.

I play Word Bearers Chaos Marines. The Daemon Prince can be given the mark of Nurgle which I often take and to represent this I painted him green

very nice, love the sword especially
