So I've just recently gotten into W40k, and have started to collect Chaos and follow Nurgle
I've taken a keen interest to the painting and modelling side of the game and looking forward to painting alot more models and doing more Conversions.
As I said I've only just gotten into W40k and just started playing, so I'm mainly building my army size up and finding out what works and what I like. So really my Nurgle army will just keep expanding and spreading But anywhoo, so far I've painted 5 CSM's as Deathguard, Converted 10 CSM's to PM's and painted them. Daemon Prince and Typhus Painted. 11 Cultists and counting. and working on a converted Daemon Prince of Nurgle. As to what I have to still get around to painting 9 cultists,a few bikes, Deflier then everything from the Dark Vengeance box as I plan to use the Dark Angels for a Fallen Angel Squad which I can use for my Cypher im converting from the DA Librarian. During all this I will also be painting Schaeffer's Last Chancers for a friend witch will hopefully be some good practice for faces.. damn faces :(
Enough blabbering and here are my guys! ( keep in mind these are technically the first guys I've painted so I'm more then welcome to constructive criticism :3 )

EDIT: [Pics of my Heldrake and Magnetised Guns (Autocannon) added: 18/10/12]



So there's some of my Deathguard, which I thought turned out quite well. I was planning on going towards "The Cleaved" Theme when I first started but that didn't turn out too well. So I washed him a few times so now he kinda just looks dirty. Although atm these guys are being used as PM stand-ins so it works






Yep spam Images of Plauge Marines! These are my very first conversion work and really happy with how these dirty dead Marines turned out.
Gave them big bellies with greenstuff added in some guitar string for cables or cords. Guts spewing out, and covered in a dead flesh with boils and pustules
Green stuff is too fun


ZOMG ITS TYPHUS. Im so happy how this worked out. even though I almost lost his head down the drain when washing him up D: but my horrible plumber skills came in handy.


Yeah I like him alot Tried to stick mainly to the GW paint theme for him. I used gloss varnish to make him look a bit more bio-oozy (is that even a word?)

Next came the Daemon Prince who I had no idea where to start painting from... Just kinda one day jumped at him and this is how he turned out.


And also half way painting I noticed a horribly visible mould line D: Not too impressed on this one but I plan to take him back for some touch ups, and after giving him a Black Mace, he gonna be sexy :3

Now for a bunch on cultist pics!


Pretty happy with Techvar here. Except his eyes and Mask (DAMN FACES!)


Yeah cultists... what can I say?

This one how ever. has this kinda cool red vein like line across his chest which happened when I gave him a red wash. Might use it

So those are all of my models currently being worked on and building up. I plan to convert at least another 30 more Plauge marines and when I do I'll make sure to include step by step so you can see how I did them
As for converting heres how my DP of Nurgle is currently looking. But I'm kinda stuck on what to do...



If you guys have any idea on what to do with him please let me know I think his a bit big at the back personally.

Cypher on the other hand is looking quite nice, but very Librarian.



I'm thinking about maybe changing his robe to an open robe or changing the DA symbol to Fallen Angels.
I'm also planning to sheath the sword, but have just put it there for placement, for now.

So thats all I've got going atm. Thanks for having a read if your this far down the post
Any feedback would be amazing I'd like to see what the Dakka community has to say about my models atm.
I'll be sure too keep you posted as I continue to paint things to come for my Nurgle Army

Cheers.

very nice work keep it up

Thanks Muchly appreciated (Y)

So on Wednesday I got a new addition to my army Heldrake! Awesome model but really fiddly to put together just like Defilers :( Even though I will probably using the Baleflamer most of the time, I wanted to magnetize the guns so I could swap them if I wanted to. Since this was the first time using magnets I decided to try fit the Autocannon first incase if I ruined it I'd just go Baleflamer anyway. In the end the autocannon magnetizes quite well. But since its such a small awkward space I may need to file the gun base where it sits on the bottom of the mouth, down a bit more since it clips into place. Nothing better then more hold I guess!
I have to learn to not be so hasty. I glued the head on the second this one was done. :( Not only will it make fitting the baleflamer harder but painting this one :(
Heres some pic's I must say though I wish he has some CC weapons and could go into CC Looks brutal with no guns



Here the gun isn't fully clipped in as I mentioned earlier.


And finally clipped in and ready to go!


I will be back to painting soon and making spawn! So I'll keep posted.
