What have you painted/converted today

[Jubal]

I always found that Nurgle tended to come into his own as a chaos god in smaller settings like Mordheim somehow - I guess there you can get the full creepiness of it, whereas in big battles "disease" just isn't as dramatic as crackling Tzenteech-style magic or axe-waving Khornate hordes.

[Silver Wolf]

Yes, I agree.
The smaller setting adds that note of survival horror to the story.

[Silver Wolf]

A small update.

This is my Nurgle sorcerer, based on Reaper bones' friar Stone:




And this is my unit of Nurgle warriors with great weapons, based on AoW Corrupters of the Apocalypse:





There are a few small conversions to fill out the voids, but nothing spectacular.
I never really noticed how big Orghotts Daemonspew is until I built the bugger.
He's practically ogre-sized.

[Pentagathus]

I don't generally like the nurgle stuff, but your sorcerer looks pretty bitchin. I think the nurgle warriors are generally too cartoonish for me (as most of GW's models are.)

[Jubal]

Am I right in remembering that Mordheim had a Nurgle-infested travelling fair as an army list at one point?

[Clockwork]

These look fantastic Wolf, the ogre size guy especially


@Jub, yup Nurgle's Carnival of Chaos is a thing.

[Jubal]

Ah, yes, that was the one I used to use/look at a lot of non-standard and fanmade armies (I had a wonderful City Watch warband with an unofficial list in one MH campaign we did, went fully Terry Pratchett with it) so I sometimes forget whether I'm remembering a "real" list or not.

[Clockwork]

Sounds good, I made a pirates list which I used a few times.

[Pentagathus]

I recall I had a norscan list that was pretty OP because it had a beserk werewolf geezer that could pretty much cross the board in turn one and also tear everyone up.

[Jubal]

I think I remember dying brutally from that, yeah.

[Silver Wolf]

Oh, and here's a picture of my Warshrine:

[Jubal]

I have some long term aim to try making a Sontaran war vehicle. I don't know whether to go for a walker or a sort of hovering turret-tank thing though.

[Silver Wolf]

Both of them sound cool.

I was going to say that you should go for the turret-tank, but on second thought, sentinel-like walker would also look very cool.

[Jubal]

I need to get more Green Stuff and more time before I can sculpt anything, we'll see what I come up with then though!

[Flamekebab]

I've been working on something for a YakTribe competition and this month's theme seemed right up my street.
Some years ago we wrote a Halloween scenario entitled "Frankenork" that was accompanied by a brilliant illustration by Clayton Tait:


I'm not sure if I'm good enough at sculpting to do it justice yet but I think I'm probably far enough along to give it a go!

So, basic parts:

Miscast legs, miscast torso (both my own sculpts)

Using the legs as a base I've started on a new set of legs. I thought I took some intermediary shots but apparently not - these are still going to be redone in a while. The general idea is to block out the approximate proportions and try to get the scale right:



You might notice that the monster only has nine toes. Check the illustration...

Lots more reworking still to be done but the general build is coming together:



Work continues
