Nurgle green dip group shot

Here is the latest batch of Nurgle conversions with the initial green wash...

Nurgle Daemon Prince - Painting update

Here is the latest update on my Nurgle Daemon Prince model.  I went through a series of 5 washes on top of my high/low black/white primer.  I started with a black wash, followed by a green wash, dark green wash, brown wash, and back to a black wash. Updates coming soon...

Great Unclean One / Ku'Gath / Greater Daemon - Painting update

Here is the latest update on my Great Unclean One / Ku'Gath / Greater Daemon model.  I went through a series of 4 washes on top of my high/low black/white primer.  I started with a black wash, followed by a green wash, dark, green wash, brown wash, and back to a black wash. 

I believe the colors are a bit washed out, maybe due to the lighting or bulb choice.  The actual model appears to be much greener than these pictures depict.  I am still trying to get my lighting and backdrop perfected.  I have been adding a bit more color to the back drop and have added a second light source for these shots.

Next step will be to add in the bone color for many of the spikes and appendages, followed by the metallic copper/bronze for the armor and weapons.  Updates to come...

Nurgle Army update... say Cheese!

Here is a group shot of my Current Nurgle Army.  As it stands I have around a 1000+ point that is not quite functional but definitely playable.  On the first row from left to right we have a Defiler, Rhino, Summoned Greater Daemon, Daemon Prince.  Second row starts off with 3 Plague Spawn, 10 Plague Marines, and 2 Obliterators.

So what do you think I should add next? or should I wait to see what the new Chaos Codex has in store?

Nurgle Demon Prince finally ready for primer...

So I finally got the last bit of weathering (dremmel drill and sand) finished on my Nurgle Demon Prince and he is now ready for some primer.  I am going to try a new technique this time and use both black and white primers, so that the majority of the model is white, while the recesses remain black, hopefully bringing some more depth to the model.  Updates coming soon...

Fateweaver / Lord of Change... Very early work in progress

So here is the first step of my Fateweaver/Lord of Change proxy.  I have added a wolf head to the left side of the body, and will be adding a cold one reptilian head to the right.  My plan is to partially fur the left portion of the body and wing, and sculpt scales to the right side of the model.  I will be adding some Octopus tentacles, a scorpion tail or two? as well as a large fish like fin to the backbone section.

This was a $10 ebay auction and once complete, has provided me with hours of fun and around 300pts to my Chaos Deamon Army.  Now that I think about it I could probably get away with running as a Summoned Greater Daemon for my Chaos Space Marine Army. Updates to come...

Great Unclean One / Ku'Gath -Skaven Hell Pit Abomination Kitbash

I recently picked up the body from the Skaven Hell Pit Abomination on Ebay for $10, combined with some left over Deamon Prince bits, and Lord of the Rings Ogre bits, was able to construct the start of my Great Unclean One / Ku'Gath.  It is still a very early work in progress, with a lot of work to do on the head, and various greenstuff goodies throughout the body .

Left over Daemon Prince wing and a dremmel tool

Added in a sickle to add to the Nurgle aspect.

Side view of the head shows how much work is left to do...

Good view of the back shows the shoulder muscles and underbelly

updates to come....

Khorne Army Progress - Chaos Space Marines

So I am continuing the documentation of my Chaos Space Marine Army progress, today with Khorne.  I do not yet have a playable Khorne only force, but this should help with the general direction I want the army to go.  We will start off with the troops, a set of 10 Khorne Bezerkers, including a Champ with Fist or Power Weapon.

 

Next up is their transport, standard Rhino with Havoc Launcher, and a few extra bits from the Khorne Bloodletter/Bloodcrusher box, and a healthy amount hooks to hang trophies.  Still needs a LOT of work...

Followed by my HQ, a Deamon Prince of Khorne, nice and cheap points wise and always a good fire magnet.  

The last set, while not exactly a Chaos Space Marine model, does have some interesting options.  I could possibly run a couple of these as "run as" Daemon Princes (correct Base size), and run my current HQ as Summoned Greater Deamon.

I figure, in order to get this army playable I will need to get some more troops (probably Lesser Daemons), and a few more flare units.  My goal of this army is not to be competitive, but just to have a fun cool looking themed army.  More to come... 

Slaanesh Army Progress - Chaos Space Marines

HQ:  Slaanesh Daemon Prince with Lash of Submission:
Made from the Daemon Prince kit, with a few Tyranid crushing claws, and hair from the Slaanesh Daemonettes.  Made some modifications to the back to allow another set of arms to be added.  Paint scheme is completely undecided at this point... updates to come

TROOPS: 10 Noise Marines with Sonic Blasters, and Champ with Blast Master:
The Noise Marines were based off the AoBR set.  I took the gargoyle head gun idea from one of the blogs I follow (sorry, I can't remember the exact blog).  OOP Chaos backpacks were substituted and a generous amount of greenstuff was used to chaos'ify them a bit.  I started these models with white primer and used blue, black, and pink washes.  When the washes were applied to the models I tipped them over on various sides so the blue would run to one side and the pink would run to the other, and the black would run down.  As usual these models are unfinished and still need a decent amount paint work.  I am fairly happy with the way these turned out and they gained a decent amount of detail on the blue areas without using any fine brush work.

 

TROOPS: 6 Summoned Daemons
Fiends of Slaanesh are one of the best elite options for Chaos Daemons but unfortunately they have some of the oldest, unsightly, and expensive models.  This squad was made from a box of Slaanesh Seekers +1 extra model purchased from eBay (project cost: $28 for 190pts, instead of $130+ retail ).

I started by removing the saddle and stirrup from the model with a razor blade, then attaching some left over Ork arms.  I cut the Ork hands off and replaced them with the claws from the Slaanesh Daemonettes.  A few extra spiky bits were glued/greenstuffed to the spine.

Over all this was a fairly simple modification with decent results, and still fits with the overall feeling of Slaanesh.

ELITES: 1 Dreadnought with "run as" Plasma -or- Missle Launcher and Heavy Flamer
This was made from an AoBR Dreadnought with a pound of greenstuff and CCW from an OOP CSM Dread. Tried out a new wash on this, not too sure how happy I was with the effect...

The Chaos dreads don't seem to be that effective due to the crazed rule, but they make a great firing platform when teamed with my Noise Marines.

Plague Bugs - Nurgle Army progress so far - Chaos Space Marines

This is the progress of my ongoing Nurgle Army the Plague Bugs.  I wanted something a little different than most other Nurgle armies so I decided to concentrate less on the disease aspect of the army and focus in on the insect, cloud of flies, fluff a little more.  So it only seemed natural to use Tyranid parts for this project.

We will start off with the Troops, so far I have a set of 10, I know not very Nurgle of me, but it was what I had.  I plan on making 4 more (Champion, 2 special weapons, and vanilla) so I have 2 squads of 7 with special weapons.

Next we have the transport, a Nugle Rhino with Havoc Launcher.  I can run this with extra armor or Daemonic Possesion if needed but the cost rarely seem worth the points.  Hopefully in the new Chaos Space Marine/Renegade/Legions codex we will get some additional options for transport... Dread Claw finally... hopefully...  When the new codex comes out, I will decide on what the second transport will be.

Now for the all impressive Chaos Space Marine Fast Attack section.  Normally would not put any effort into this section, but it was a dual purpose model for my Chaos Daemon army as well.  Unfortunately it does not matter if I run these as my Chaos Spawn, or Beast of Nurgle they perform about the same... poorly.  But since I am running a dedicated Nurgle list, I wanted to include them. Here is the set of 3:

Next up is the HQ section.  One Chaos Space Marine Nurgle Daemon Prince.  I am not finished with the weathering, greenstuff, or additional Nid parts, but here is where it stands now...

Lastly is the Nurgle Defiler, or the Plague Spider.  As with the DP, still need to weather, greenstuff, and some additional Nid bits.  The Plague Spider is equipped with a Heavy Flamer and Heavy Bolter.

Still left to build:

• 2 squads of 7 Summoned Deamons
• 1 Greater Deamon (which will double as my Great Unclean One/Kugath for Chaos Deamon list)
• Unknown Heavy Support tank....

As always comments always welcome...
