_Cadaver_ Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 For those of you who followed my previous Project Log, you will know I started switching over my Death Guard army to be predominantly based on the Forgeworld Plague Marines as the base for my army. Well, I decided to take it a bit further and use Forgeworld models for everything I could that is currently available in the Forgeworld model range, as far as Nurgle based models are concerned. Rather than adding to my previous Project Log I wanted to start anew as this is essentially a totally new army in terms of the models, paint scheme, composition, etc. I've also decided that I want this log to showcase completely finished miniatures as much as possible, leaving work in progress to a minimum. While it is no doubt really cool to see models posted from start to finish, this army doesn't have nearly as many conversions, sculpting work, etc. and so I really want this log to showcase my painting rather than conversion work. Ok, so I've been droning on about the army enough, let's get to the good stuff! Plague Marine Squad 1: http://i132.photobucket.com/albums/q15/lonestarcody/Forgeworld%20Death%20Guard/ForgeworldDeathGuard029.jpg http://i132.photobucket.com/albums/q15/lonestarcody/Forgeworld%20Death%20Guard/ForgeworldDeathGuard030.jpg http://i132.photobucket.com/albums/q15/lonestarcody/Forgeworld%20Death%20Guard/ForgeworldDeathGuard031.jpg http://i132.photobucket.com/albums/q15/lonestarcody/Forgeworld%20Death%20Guard/ForgeworldDeathGuard032.jpg Plague Marine Squad 2: http://i132.photobucket.com/albums/q15/lonestarcody/Forgeworld%20Death%20Guard/ForgeworldDeathGuard025.jpg http://i132.photobucket.com/albums/q15/lonestarcody/Forgeworld%20Death%20Guard/ForgeworldDeathGuard026.jpg http://i132.photobucket.com/albums/q15/lonestarcody/Forgeworld%20Death%20Guard/ForgeworldDeathGuard026.jpg http://i132.photobucket.com/albums/q15/lonestarcody/Forgeworld%20Death%20Guard/ForgeworldDeathGuard027.jpg http://i132.photobucket.com/albums/q15/lonestarcody/Forgeworld%20Death%20Guard/ForgeworldDeathGuard028.jpg Plague Marine Squad 3 - Aspiring Champion WIP - 75% done http://i132.photobucket.com/albums/q15/lonestarcody/Forgeworld%20Death%20Guard/ForgeworldDeathGuard021.jpg http://i132.photobucket.com/albums/q15/lonestarcody/Forgeworld%20Death%20Guard/ForgeworldDeathGuard022.jpg http://i132.photobucket.com/albums/q15/lonestarcody/Forgeworld%20Death%20Guard/ForgeworldDeathGuard023.jpg http://i132.photobucket.com/albums/q15/lonestarcody/Forgeworld%20Death%20Guard/ForgeworldDeathGuard024.jpg Plague Marine Squad 4 - Aspiring Champion WIP - 75% done http://i132.photobucket.com/albums/q15/lonestarcody/Forgeworld%20Death%20Guard/ForgeworldDeathGuard017.jpg http://i132.photobucket.com/albums/q15/lonestarcody/Forgeworld%20Death%20Guard/ForgeworldDeathGuard018.jpg http://i132.photobucket.com/albums/q15/lonestarcody/Forgeworld%20Death%20Guard/ForgeworldDeathGuard019.jpg http://i132.photobucket.com/albums/q15/lonestarcody/Forgeworld%20Death%20Guard/ForgeworldDeathGuard020.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/160318-cadavers-forgeworld-death-guard/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

The staggered set up for the PMs messed with the sharpness of the photos a bit so they are slightly out of focus in some of the pics which spoils some of the detail but I'll try and work on that in future updates. Comments and criticism are most welcome! Edit: Paint scheme added upon request. Prime Black Armor: Catachan Green Drybrush Camo Green Drybrush Rotting Flesh Wash with Didi's Magic Ink Green/Black at about 3:1 - doesn't have to be exact Drybrush Bleached bone Wash with Didi's Magic Ink Brown - two light coats Armor Trim: Reaper Master series Tarnished Brass Wash with Devlan Mud - two coats Skin: Graveyard Earth/Shadow grey about 2:1 Highlight Kommando Khaki Highlight Bleached Bone I'm probably going to add a wash for the final step as the skin is a bit too bright as is.

Hell, I still need to figure out what all I'm going to do with the conversions. I've done some test minis for conversions but I'm still trying to decide the best way to go about them. They have to fit in to my upcoming LaTD Daemons army as well so there's lots to plan out for both conversion and paint scheme. As for posting this at Papa Nurgle, if they've fixed the sizing limits for pics, I will, but it's too much of a hassle to resize all the pics just to post them there. I love the site but it's a pain to showcase stuff when the photos won't auto format like every other forum around. :verymad: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/160318-cadavers-forgeworld-death-guard/#findComment-1881202 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Nah, I don't like the FW termies at all. I've converted mine with Typhus heads, which look better than the psuedo typhus heads Mark Bedford did on the FE termies. I'm forever grateful to him for sculpting alot of the amazing Nurgle models for FW but between the DG termies the the Plague Ogryns I'm beginning to to lose faith in the newer Nurgle models FW is releasing.

Cassarus Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 good to here, I'm totally with you on that point. I don't like the plague ogryns much, and there nothing special about the fw terminators at all.. well I'm looking forward to see what you'll do with this army!

The Defiler Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 Those Vindies are trully sick ( = amazing).. Drilling some much holes on both hulls would have driven me mad.. :P Would you mind sharing your recipe to paint your army ? I've got some FW Plague Marines waiting to be built & painted, and I really like this corrupted/dirty look you've painted them.. I would say you've used Thrakka Green and Devlan Mud on a white basecoat, but I may be wrong.. Thanks in advance, and keep up the good work !! ;) the def Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/160318-cadavers-forgeworld-death-guard/#findComment-1881221 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dark Armada Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 They look EXACTLY how Plague Marines SHOULD look! Amazing Job! They really do look gritty; not afraid to get their hands dirty....

Either way very well done! :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/160318-cadavers-forgeworld-death-guard/#findComment-1895879 Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackblade68 Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 You might want to think about adding some fleshy parts on your Vindicators. They look dirty but not....Nurgle Dirty.

You can check it out here. if you want to see some more converted/mutated Nurgle stuff. Just don't revive it. That thread has been dead awhile. ...No pun intended.

Metal Fingered Villain Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 These guys are coming along awesome man, my only gripe is that the armour sometimes feels a bit too washed. Also, it might just be the pictures but try bringing in some more lighter shades to the models and then accent them with sickly purples and grey ish blues to bring some zap to the models. I'm working on some helmets that resemble those old school Iron ones to cast up for my DG. Only other thing I can see is, a little green stuff never hurt anybody, even when its on beautiful forgeworld mini's. :lol: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/160318-cadavers-forgeworld-death-guard/#findComment-1897001 Share on other sites More sharing options...
