Buttons Should Be Brass, Not Gold!

Not played 40k since '97 (and if I do play it will be with 1st or 2nd Edition, every edition after that has been awful for me... But Im an old fart) but a mate gave me his Dark Vengeance stuff to paint.
So I did one of the Chaos Marines;
I dont tend to follow the ' GW' style. Found it a little boring to paint to be honest. May do more... Not sure yet.

Hell yeah that's a sweet paintjob! I like the way it's still undeniably Nurgle but still a lot cleaner than you usually see!  aged but still working fine enough to do it's job! I for one would love to see a whole lot more from you if that's the first mini you painted in 16 years

Painted a fair few other mini's in those 16 years... But the first from 40K in that time.
Im mainly a historical gamer.
Thanks for the comments chaps, may try another one...

16 years or 16 days? Because there's only one that seems believable.
Seriously though, great work!
