My DeathGuard Experience

Recommended Posts

I have been away for a few years now making a pilgrimage of sorts through other games and game systems, all the while checking in on the B&C and other marine sites to see whats going on. Well im back newly infused (infested you may say) with ideas and dreams. So with this im going to start a new DG army with all the tweekings, with first a few pics of the old stuff to see where i came from and where i hope to go...

first my old Deamon Prince (i may keep him and just repaint)

comments welcome, more to come

Thanks for the C&C!

Update! i am working with trying out a new way to make my "bellies" on my marines, im thinking i may go more bloated and less decayed, but you tell me!gallery_3467_2261_24979.jpg

Plus the begining of my first termie champ, i want him to have that "YOU" look, so i repositioned the hand a bit, does it look natural or creepy bent?

keep the comments coming, always looking for a good idea!

This looks like a really promising army, and I must say I mights steal your icon bearer idea :)

 

yea i played dark elves for a bit and while modeling one night i got a little frustrated and snapped one of the banner poles and POOF the lights went on, i think i made five or six of those nurgle ones that night....

This looks good!!!!!

But, only a personal question from my point of view...aren't they...too pregnant?????????

<_< :) :D :D

Just my point of view...dont like nurgle boys over-rotten!!!!

Keep on the good and fine job!!!!

 

 

thanks! I think they wont look as big when they have arms.

i think the one on the left has the right idea simply because with it all one colour nothing stands out and you lose all the detail and all the effort you put into them. but it too doesnt look right.

you have to decide, are the extended guts extende armour? if yes paint them the same as the armour, if they are flesh paint them flesh. etc etc.

i think you should treat them as armour, but i think you need at least one other colour in there to bring deffinition to the details.

 

but having said all that. your models are awsome!

Indeed, the GS work and painting on these guys is great. However, as someone mentioned, you've got a lot of rotten bellies in this army so far. Every WIP you've shown us in this thread has a bag of intestines flopping around his waist.

I'd recommend varying the location of the Marines' rot. Maybe one has an arm off, with long tendirls of veinous gore sagging out of the stump. Maybe another has a huge, mutated eyeball dwarfing the other side of his face.

You skills are great, but branch out beyond the gutbags.
