This one was a fun conversion, initially meant as a true scaled marine, I got possessed by Nurgle and out came the sculpting putty.










The base was a bit of a last minute descision but I think it looks good.

Please comment/ criticise.

It's a nice paintjob, but it doesn't look very Nurgly.

Very sharp, but it needs some more pus and phlegm!

I know he is a little clean cut for a Nurgly marine, but I was going for a little more subtlety on this model. I will however in the next few months do a full on Nugly Marine

all i say is gross!

The painting looks great. I really like what you did with the model's chest, but it reminds me of the Aliens movies a bit too much. Maybe if it were a bit more bloated overall. Other than that, I think you did an awesome job.

Looks awesome, the bolt pistol arm looks very small however, and I'd like more nurgleness!!

But looks good!

Thanks

How gross. I feel nauseous. Damn fine work. Although, to be honest, the red guts look a little too...healthy. Perhaps some discoloration might serve to empasize the nastiness?

Damn, I love your work!

Cool looking pantjob and i like the base too,
Maybe add a touch of mould/vomit/pus to the wound ?
as mentioned above it looks too healthy, just like a marine took a melta to the gut !!
Still looks good though.

Excellent paintjob, and the base is fantastic...

Awesome. Looks like his stomach might have a little infection... I'm not a doctor tho

It looks good but definitely needs more Nurgle.

In a month or two I might give him a head swap (more nurgly) and some more dribbly bits then Not got the time to do that right now, lots of commissions are coming in + competition models to paint

Thanks,

Tom

Just makes me hungry.

That model is really well done, and i like it just the way it is. I am curious what he's doing up there on that rickety scrap. Cheers.

This looks really cool. I really like the shades on the shoulder pads. Really well done.

I actually really like this! I know majority vote is not nurgly enough but it's good to see something different, obviously they didn't just wake up and go 'hey, my guts are putrid and these boils?...wow!' I imagine that the purification process would take some time as they are astartes? and this guys looks pretty well on the way, I wouldn't go overboard with him if I were you, maybe just some small streaks of corrosion or even pus from the wounds? overall, this is just another one of your works that I find so impressive! you are exceptionally talented.

This looks neato! I like his 'guts'.

Thanks again!

Tom

My favorite part of this outstanding mini is the little string of gore stretching between his thumb and index finger. Was that even intentional?

The guts are a nice touch for the figure. Good job with the putty.

Yes it was It's all in the finishing touches

p.s. this model is now on my shop on my blog if you click my banner

That sure is one cool base nice work with the painting!

I just love when people say things like, "You know, there isn't enough pus and phlegm on that for my liking." LOL Nice work, your painting is topnotch, but it needs a little more of the Grandfather's touch.

Lol thanks... I'm currenly sculpting/converting a great unclean one who will be mega gory and plagued keep your eyes peeled
