So I love Typhus a lot, but I wanted to make my own version of him that fit with the Death Guard army I'm building. You can look at the whole story on my blog in my sig if you care, but here is the end result WIP (sorry I couldn't figure out how to resize the pics):









Now that the wall of pics is over, my question is this... I'm really happy with how he turned out but I'm worried about the head choice. It fits with my possessed I built for which you can find posted here http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/585065.page but I wonder if a more traditional Typhus head would look better?

What are your thoughts?

It looks good, but I think you went a bit overboard on the Tyranid bits. Tyranid bits definitely work for Nurgle models, but if you use to many, it can be distractingly Tyranid-y.

Yea it might be a little weird looking, I was hoping my paint scheme would help pull it together and distance the Tyranid look.

Anyone else? Thoughts?

I like it, I think once you paint it too it'll lose some of that tyranid-y feels
