I was given a fairly open project a little while ago- just take a daemon prince kit and make sure he ends up nurgle aligned.

With the daemon prince kit, I've found that a head swap goes a very long way, so I chose a head from my bits box- it comes from a Crypt Horror. It isn't exactly the same size as the normal prince head, but I think that actually helps it out- it makes it seem less like the original mini (since the head doesn't look more deformed than the core mini.

After having him there, my client let me know that he preferred a winged Daemon Prince (ok, the mobility adds a lot of utility on daemon princes). If I had realized this from the start, I'd probably have used the normal daemon prince wings, but I really loved how the back spikeds looked with the fleshy-nurgle scheme. So I opted to use another set of wings from my bits box- from the same kit as the head, even:

Great choises in the use of spare parts.
I could easily see myself stealing that pallet and bits swap if I need to ad a nurgle prince.

I love it, with the exception of the spikes.

Great job mate I love him. I myself am still thinking with what to swap the head of my Deamon prince so I can start painting him but yous is very well theamed amasing job.

I love the quizzical look he is giving making him tell a story is half the battle

The same kit has the Vargheists in it- I think that it'd be awesome to use a vargheist head for a Night Lords prince.

Swapping out the head really does a ton for the daemon prince kit- I think more than most kits.
