Hey guys, you're both welcome to be plagues with necrotic entropy! Your takes on nurgle colour schemes are radically different anyway!

I should add that you've both been huge contributors, so I want to (dis)honour you as you see fit; Yggs, just wasn't sure if you wanted to be nurgley or tzeentchy; I'm totally going to raid my BA bits for yours. Also, gitsplitta will be a tzeentchy boy!

Work has started on tipios's dead dread, and I'm plotting other manners of death. If you wish to nominate death by dread, pagk or tagk, do say.

That's a feast full of beware putting fruit near Mabrothrax though, he makes dirty jam.


Had a plan to do stuff this evening. Failed as #2 son decided that, rather than sleeping, 3 hours of screaming interspersed with vomiting on daddy was preferable. Talk about chaos undivided...

However, that gave me time to think (see below) and an hour to finish building NDK 2 and 2 FW GK dreads (argh! acronyms!), at least in the main.

Sacrificial Minions
Tipios as Iron Warrior dreadnought, death by NDK. Possibly big wormy thing emerging...
Gitsplitta as Tzeentchy Mantis Warrior, death by dread Assault Cannon.
Erithromycin as World Eater berserker, axe compulsory, death by psycannon. Might build a dh/psycannon brother captain just to kill him.
At the hands of Paladins:
Miss Dee as Night Lord 
Mabrothrax as Death Guard 
Farmboy as Emperor's Children 
Knightley as Knights of Blood 
WarOne as pre-heresy World Eater 
Yggrdrasil as variant Death Guard

More thoughts:
BLACKHAND as Blackhand
Whalemusic360 - Noise Marine maybe? No idea how to construct that mind you!
Lord Kaiser II - a slaaneshi ultrasmurf, presumably?!
Bash the Bosh - khorne csm would seem aposite.

I'm not going to say I follow any particular God of Chaos , but if I did, it certainly wouldn't be those dirty Khorne Flakes, those unclean Slanneshi things, or those disturbingly dirty Nurgle guys. Uncle Nurgle touched me inappropriately, once.

ONCE.

Folks, I'm touched, truly I wasn't grovelling for parts (though, hey, I'm not gonna refuse!) Bits wise, all and anything - reasonably ok for backpacks, arms and Khorne bits, but other stuff (Slaanesh/Tzeentch bits esp) in short supply. eBay lot of legs fell through, rather cross about that.

Thrilled actually with how folk are liking this - course now I have to do it justice.

GiraffeX, I'll add you to the list; Reiko, 1kSons you be.

Started on torsos last night, I'll get some pics up later hopefully. List now stands at:
Tipios as Iron Warrior dreadnought, death by NDK
Gitsplitta as Tzeentchy Mantis Warrior, death by dread Assault Cannon - Torso/head/pack done but in need of bullet-riddling
Erithromycin as Dragon Warrior, axe compulsory, death by psycannon - Torso/head/pack done
BLACKHAND as a Blackhand - Torso/head/pack done
Briancj - Tzeentch sorceror - Torso/head/pack done
Yggrdrasil as Alpha Legion - Torso/head/pack done

Metropolis as possesed (really need legs for this!)
Revenant Reiko as Thousand son
Miss Dee as Night Lord
Mabrothrax as Death Guard
Farmboy as Emperor's Children
Knightley as Knights of Blood
WarOne as pre-heresy World Eater

@Yggs: that'd be outstanding, monsieur

Also, I found a metal chaos pad whilst rummaging, it's like an eye with 3 lightning bolts descending from it; anyone know what chapter that is, or is it just chaotica generica?

Believe the metal pad is a generic one. Does it have an eye though? Might be a fancy Black Legion if it has an eye, or if it's a Skull it's probably Iron Warriors.

Tipios as Iron Warrior dreadnought, death by NDK
Gitsplitta as Tzeentchy Mantis Warrior, death by dread Assault Cannon - Torso/head/pack done but in need of bullet-riddling

Whalemusic360 - Fallen Angel - Torso/head/pack done
Farmboy as Emperor's Children - Torso/head/pack done - although, I realise I've done a MeanGreenStompa version (SG heads rather than BA heads)

Metropolis as possesed
Revenant Reiko as Thousand son
Miss Dee as Night Lord
Mabrothrax as Death Guard
WarOne as pre-heresy World Eater
DarkStarSabre: Extinction angel
Monkeytroll - slaaneshi marine.
Lord Kaiser II - a slaaneshi ultrasmurf, presumably?!
Bash the Bosh - khorne berseker
GiraffeX - Black Knight Black Legion maybe?
ReaperMan2020 - Something deathy


Ok, ok, pics:

On to various minions:

Farmboy (though I might swap this for a pretty boy head)

I'm less sold on the torso cover, and wonder whether I should have the exhaust block at the back between the NDK legs instead. Also, I look forward to my imminent death...
