Hello! I really need help from the wise and learned Lords of Dakka Dakka!

I recently just finished assembling my FW Lord of Change - this is now my current favorite model for so many different reasons!

Anywho, I now have the FW KoS, LoC, and Bloodthirster, so my last one to acquire is something that can be a Nurgle GD. Only I feel that the Forge World GD is woefully inferior to the other ones, both in size and overall sculpt. It is pretty boring to look at, and it's also quite small, at only 4 inches!:



Scibor's not-Nurgle GD is even smaller and quite boring to look at. Unfortunately, I also have the Glottkin already otherwise this would be a fantastic choice to use, as it is both large and quite nice.

I seldom purchase outside of the Citadel range and so my knowledge of other companies is limited. Here are some things that I'd prefer, though I'd be willing to make exceptions if the model excels in some of the categories:

- Be 6 + inches tall, as it needs to be similar in size to my other three Forge World GDs.
- 'Setting' neutral, so having a massive plasma cannon or too much technology beyond basic steampunk stuff is a no-go.
- It doesn't have to be 'diseased' or 'afflicted' in particular, because I can convert maladies and mutations myself - but still Nurgle-y in appearance, perhaps morbidly obese or offensive to look at, lol.
- Preferably not metal, but willing to deal with it.
- Not be a 'rare' or difficult to acquire sculpt. I've tried looking at some of the Kingdom Death models but I can't find anything on eBay, nor does there seem to be a simple shopping page from that manufacturer - or maybe my Google-fu is off and I'm missing the obvious (not surprising tbh, I haven't had much time to search lately).
- I live in Canada so I need the manufacturer to ship here. I do have friends in the States who can provide a workaround but this would be hugely convenient for me if they handle Canadian orders.

I know it may be a pain, but hopefully some of you embed some pics in this thread, as I'm going to be primarily mobile the next few days and short on time. Though even a basic sentence is fine!

Thanks in advance, much appreciated everybody. Have a good day!

Thank you for the link, but most of those models are only a few inches tall. They'd make decent Nurgle count-as for sure, just not Greater Daemons.

Thanks again, friend.

What about this one? I was considering it myself. He's about 5 inches tall, more if you get creative with basing.

I'd be shocked if you can't find something here.

Not sure how tall this guy below is...base is maybe 80mm-100mm? You'd have to research the size on these fellas.

I like that one, but it's just a tad too small. You're right, with some creative basing he'd be taller but it would be obvious and he'd still look like a shrimp next to the FW stuff. Thanks for the link!

The pictures you embedded are nice models, and that second one in particular is really cool. I'll have to snoop around the Mierce page, that site is enormous and they're all very nice sculpts - something HAS to be there for me. I'll come back with some options and see what you all think. Thanks.

edit - Wow those two models are actually off the Mierce site. It would appear those were their sculpts for exactly what I was looking for. ARGH that second model is perfect - I need to find out its size though!

This Bloodmaw model is also really nice!!

This is what came to mind for me.




It's costy, 100 UKP, but has a lot of charm.

Those models are nice, especially the first two. The Cthulhu is also pretty fitting, I have a lot to consider - thanks Kid Kyoto.

The best and most common nurgle counts as is the ultraforge deamon in my avatar.
But yeah, it is a bit too popular sometimes.
