ilnar Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 along with the rest of the world it seems, the GW nurgly models dont do it for me,,, so to go along with my up and coming cahos marines, i wanted to try something different for plaguebearers. the piccys arnt particulary helpfull at this point, but im after some comments.,,, im thinking maggots,,, obviously this works well for nurglings,,, i just need a few dozen 1" long maggots,, but for plague bearers im thinking humanoids made of the maggots, basically a load of maggots emerging from the ground, forming a trunk and torso/arms,,,# http://i292.photobucket.com/albums/mm20/ilnar3/maggot001.jpg not helpfull,,, but imagine covered in maggots, ::D and with a nasty head, thoughts?

Deacoknight Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 There is a game called Helldorado that has guys made completely of maggots. I'm sure if you search the internet, you will be able to find pics of them for some inspiration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prtyjedi Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 Looks good, though maybe the maggots are a bit big. But they definitely look like maggots in a nasty, gut-wrenching sort of way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilnar Posted August 10, 2008 Author Share Posted August 10, 2008 they have been well fed by papa nurgle? :rolleyes: i dunno.... need to work on the placement of them,,,, maybe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cl4d Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 That's gross and disturbing but it is beautiful at the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montuhotep Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 It's certainly original and yet so right for Nurgle, it's a brilliant idea and I look forward to seeing more of it - but a 'man' made of maggots? He'd better not go near that Goldfish pond! :wink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilnar Posted August 14, 2008 Author Share Posted August 14, 2008 uppy date! the marines are easy but the deamons are HARD anyway,,, plaguebearers are coming along nicely,,, but im quite proud of this guy,,, anyway,,, my guo wip http://i292.photobucket.com/albums/mm20/ilnar3/maggot006.jpg http://i292.photobucket.com/albums/mm20/ilnar3/maggot008.jpg im thinking of doing various faces and bodies pressing out of the gut, screaming c+c anyone?

Deacoknight Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 The plaguebearer variant is looking pretty cool. I really like the start of what you had going there at first too. If you decide not to go with them as a play model, then they would make a pretty cool objective marker for a nurgle army as well. Keep up the good sculpting. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilnar Posted August 17, 2008 Author Share Posted August 17, 2008 ok,,, need help again,,, thoughts? http://i292.photobucket.com/albums/mm20/ilnar3/maggot009.jpg http://i292.photobucket.com/albums/mm20/ilnar3/maggot010.jpg http://i292.photobucket.com/albums/mm20/ilnar3/maggot011.jpg http://i292.photobucket.com/albums/mm20/ilnar3/maggot012.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Chaplain Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 let's see: saggy man breasts? spiral horns sprouting from the side of his head? drool coming from the mouth? perhaps a second set of frail, shrivelled arms on the torso? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicili Posted August 18, 2008 Share Posted August 18, 2008 I think you should add a bit of something to the upper torso, its not "busy"/daemonic enough. And i would be against the faces. That always screams Slaanesh (i.e. Lucius the Eternal) or Tzeentch, i think you would be better off for more boils/maggots honestly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
