Is that a new DG Chaos Lord?! What's the other guy?

Mortarion looks as beast as I expected! And that dude with the Scythe looks really cool too! Hell yeah!

I thought that was supposed to be Typhus.

I wonder what kind of role the Tally Man will fill on the field.

Looking at Morty's new model gives me a dirty tinkerbell vibe. All he needs is more glitter! I can't get that image out of my mind when I look at that model. He will forever be known as Tinkerbell in my gaming group.

Mortarion looks *way* better in that video.
Colours are muted and not as screamy, which fits much better.

Its o.k. in my opinion.

It is too busy, I dont like that thing above his head and there is too much swirly crap at the bottom .

Positives, I like his head and the wings, I like that the censers dont have stuff coming out of them and I really like his weapons.

Even the brief 360 view was enough to convince me this is a far better model than that awful, color saturated image portrayed.

Looking forward to further better images in muted colors. This is almost exactly as happened to me from initially seeing the bright yellow new AOS orcs to seeing Mark Bedford's dark metal ones.

It is quite clear that the version we saw before was the army painters model, designed to stand out in army shots. The model in the 360 is the 'eavy metal mini, designed to look good in closeups.

I fully endorse this bad voice acting making typhus out to be a psuedo starscream of the deathgaurd.

Morty's base is really great as it adds this whole 'spreading plague from above' vibe and dynamic sense of movement aspect to the model but it's still all a little busy for me.

Loving the little clip and love the models too. I might splash out if they bring in a DG terminator kit or pick up Mortarian later on when I build up some funds.

So what do we think the Tallyman does?

Some kind of possible Chaplain/Lieutenant style equivalent perhaps? I'm assuming he'll be some kind of aura buffer. Love the model

Ah that old chestnut. Tell me, do you have to eat dog gak to know it tastes bad?


Lol ok, yep you don't need to eat crap to know it tastes crap and to the op.

I'm a very good painter, soooo

A: I can see enough detail
B: I don't need to put 400 hours into a single mini to make it look like this
C: yep, yep I do
D: nurgle is not virtually impossible to paint without putting loads of time in, its one of the easier ones to paint compared to say, imperial fists, if you want them to look good that is.

So with all that out the way, it's a bad looking model and far too busy on the eye, the paint job isn't great, but I'm not complaining about that, it's just what gw wants deathfuard to look like, always found the muted nurgle scheme boring.


you are not a good painter lol at all. delusional. you are dead wrong also you didnt even address waht i said. I said nurgle is not the type of model that you can "edge highlight". I can paint those new primaris in 10mins and they will look insane. models with lots of skin and lots of diff color detail like this requires lots of glazing. Glazing = time. You can see detail on this model? the pic is garbage rofl. You cant see a single meaningful thing in that pic rofl. unreal man. I feel like mini wargaming nerds are like the far left or far right of politics. Outright insane

Your gallery doesn't even have a single mode that has good glazing/painting what would you know.

If topic gets locked thats fine I'm just sick of people ill equip to judge passing judgement


A: I can see enough detail.

Funny that, addressed what you said immediately.

B: I don't need 400 hours etc.

Omg ! I addressed what you said again !!!

C: yep, yep I do

Jeeeeejus, I keep addressing what you've said ! I'm such a cad

D: nurgle is not etc

Wow, I keep addressing what your saying, but I must be putting it in invisible ink or something.

And yep I'm a good painter, your not, see how easy that is to throw around a subjective comment, and glazing is the only way to see if someone is a good painter lol, nope, not everything has to be neat, some things look better with a slightly messy look, but I doubt you understand that.


you, sir, and I mean no offence, are a mediocre Painter. fitting for tabletopstandard, but nothing more. very good painters are guys like Jarhead, Ben Komets or Banshee, whom are universes apart from you.

Don't think that's Typhus, looks to be the Champion of what was formerly known as the Deathshroud Terminators. In the wide shot with Mortarion behind him, you can see another scythe-wielding Terminator with the same fungal stacks to the right of the tallyman.

Given what we've seen with Kharn and Ahriman so far, I'd expect Typhus to be much more ostentatious and recognizable

That Mortarion is much better than the one in the camera picture.

He looks okay, would look infinitely better in pre-heresy colors. If I end up purchasing him I'll end up doing him up that way.

I have a problem.

Being contrary for the sake of being contrary doesn't make you unique, it makes you annoying.

I'm leaning towards that same thought and hope you're correct. I was hoping for a much larger and more recognizable Typhus model. Similar to some of his art.

Mortarion is perhaps one of the best models Citadel has ever made.

It's also one of those things where you can easily separate wrong opinions versus correct facts - very little to be subjective about.
