daboarder Posted August 10, 2010 Author Share Posted August 10, 2010 Yeah I wouldn't have done another army if I had to pay for it but I already had all these parts in my box or lying around from stuff that had never eventuated and so decided to use them rather than waste em.

daboarder Posted August 23, 2010 Author Share Posted August 23, 2010 Hey Guys, it’s been a while. Anyway this weekend I had a little spare cash as I couldn’t g out due to an injured neck so I went down to the shops and picked up some stuff. One of these things was the new daemon prince as I will be increasing the size of my force to 1750 pts. I seriously considered forking out the cash and getting the metal nurgle one but in the end I decided I would be better off spending the cash on a daemon prince box and a spawn box and using my bits box to make 2 daemon prince’s and 2 spawn for gift of chaos. Anyway here’s the main prince at his current level of completion, still much more to do on this bad boy. http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/P8230218.jpg Of particular note is the chest eventually it will have this symbol on it. http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/010-1.jpg Here’s the head, this is going to sound weird but I’m aiming to have a cyclopse, vampire, nurgle hybrid thingy hence the Eye and the choice of head piece. http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/P8230219.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/P8230220.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/P8230220.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/P8230221.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/P8230223.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xephis Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 These models are fantastic!!!! Nurglfying those Blood Angels makes this heretic very proud. I am especially fond of the daemon you constructed. I can't wait to see that thing painted and finished!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daboarder Posted January 7, 2011 Author Share Posted January 7, 2011 Hi guys I haven't posted anything in a while I know but I wanted to share this with you. a week before christmas I was asked if I would like to participate in the local conversion contest, I wanted to enter something new and for a while I had thought about expanding my BA nurgle marines with some apocalypse super heavies, with that in mind I dragged a baneblade out of the closet it had been resting in waiting for a stealer cult and decided that it would look better as a plague reaper instead. this is the finished product after about half a week of modelling and a day of painting unfortunately I didn't get to finish the painting before the competion but I am pleased to announce that I still won. there will be more pictures coming of the painted vehicle and showing more of the details. I now plan to add another plague reaper with similar design and a corrupted shadowsword to help kill titans and other super heavies. http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/086-1-1.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/087.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/088.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/089.jpg points of note: Daboarder style nurglings are fun and easy to make and I expect to be adding more as a common factor to all vehicles in the army. PS: look for updates to my morbid angels blog within the week as i now have time to finish up the basic infantry. Edit: the plan is to have the entire army, 2 terminator squads, DP, Lord, Sorc, 4Xmarine squads and rhino's, 2xraptor squads, 3x3 blits and all the super heavies by the new aussie gt this year.

Brother-Captain Devlonir Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 I love how your Nurgle-ize the Blood Angels in your conversion, and that Baneblade really hit the spot! That dead Angel in the front really is a beautiful centerpiece of a lovely model. I cannot wait to see more of your entire Nurgle force! I hope you get to paint an entire army in the end and manage to get some group shots out. I'd love to see how this army looks on the tabletop.

hushrong Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Definitely a fan of your Nurgle-BA! I especially like the work on the Termie lord and a few other terminators! I may have to borrow ideas here and there. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daboarder Posted April 18, 2011 Author Share Posted April 18, 2011 I come bearing the gifts of papa nurgle. So as it was requested I update this thread, heres the current progress on the plague/nurgle marines, squad on is being painted while squad 2 is still undergoing sculpting. Thoughts: squad markings are a bitch.....then I figured that if I was sculpting on details why not sculpt squad markings to link the units together, as such we have the spine squad and the ....barnacle squad? spine was sculpted before barnacle and due to the more imposing nature of their posing and the fact barnacle was mostly left over bits, means that I had to push my sculpting further to make barnacle impressive on the table....I think its working so far you know what lets make it a selection at the moment. http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/174-1.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/175.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/176-1.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/177.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/178.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/181.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/179.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/184.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/183.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/190.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/185.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/191.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/194.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/195.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/196.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/212.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/200.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/202.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/205.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/206.jpg So thoughts anyone? edit: oh heres a dread update: http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/082.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/084.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/087-1.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/085.jpg Edit2: Oh I will be entering this army into the australian games day armies on parade so expect a 2x2 board section detailing a currpted imperial shrine world.

1Drop Posted May 22, 2011 Share Posted May 22, 2011 What an amazing idea, my hat is off to you. Your greenstuff skills are admirable, really inspiring me to get some greenstuff myself and have a go with it, what tools did you use, just the normal modeling tools from GW? So will you just be using the c:csm for the rules or the BA dex too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daboarder Posted May 22, 2011 Author Share Posted May 22, 2011 Hey guys, yeah Im still wroking on this project hadn't realised I hadn't posted progress here. Unfortunately my housemate took my camera swimming.....so until thats replaced I'm up the creek. I am however working on a couple of things. I think I've found a nice foot slogging list that slowly puts the pressure on, so I've got a Centipede defiler, more Obliterators and 2 more units of Terminators (mates are willing to play against a terminator troops army). One of these will be the retinue for the lord that are Zombie's wielding giant scythes and shambling along. The idea is that the Lord kills his greatest enemies and rivals before enzslaving their souls and forcing them to serve him as both body guard and shock troops, after all dead men are the least likely to betray you. The tool I used is a number of different sized chemical spatula's I've nicked from the lab. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't done any sculpting or anything like that before so I'll probably just start with simple things but you have shown me what can be achieved and I like it.

daboarder Posted May 22, 2011 Author Share Posted May 22, 2011 Patience is the biggest one, its cliche but being able to do a bit and then leave it for 2 hours to dry is hard and at the same time vital. another trick is to break the sculpt into parts, don't try do it all at once identify which parts you can do in stages and then sculpt, for example the puss sacks are round balls that dry, are glued onto the models and then a thin layer of of green stuff over the top to make them into a single sack.

daboarder Posted June 2, 2011 Author Share Posted June 2, 2011 Heres what I've been working on so far. The idea behind the termies is the lord kills and re-animates his greatest enemies and rival's and then uses their corpses to protect him in a perverse sense of irony. Game wise their twin LC's and a Hf CF set up. http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/001-8.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/005-7.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/115.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/104.jpg Blight grenades: http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/006-6.jpg Defiler: http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/122.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/123.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/124.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OoZo Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 I am speechless! It is so awesome!! Love it! I would love to face that army, or maybe not, i would be so tempted to pick all the models up and look at them closely!

daboarder Posted August 29, 2011 Author Share Posted August 29, 2011 Well guys I know its been a while But I've been working on this army still. I've made a lot of progress and I expect it to be completed within a month, all 2500 (approx) points. 2 of the squads are now painted, the greenstuff is finished on the second dread and painting is underway on both of them and the 'blits are also being painted. Pictures of these will follow over the next few days however tonight I feel like sharing my current pride with you. These terminators have been done with the skulls on the right shoulder acting as the squad marking. they will be a retinue for my lord and as such share some elements with him such as the shoulder pads and the concept behind the faces on the shin's. I wanted these to be animated corpses, my idea is that my lord enslaves the corpses of his greatest foes and rivals to serve as his bodyguard in a perverse example of irony. Points of note: The torn Esophagus on one of the terminators and the trucker hat like drinking tube on the heavy flamer (not to forget the skull I.V. that supplies brain juice of victims to the toxin sac on the back. Game wise I've been running them as twin LC's (plus HF/PF) and I've found that they really are a wreck face unit. I've had much success using them as counter charge and positioning them to take initial charges through cover allowing them to smash the opponents main push at my lines, between them and Abaddon they really do vaporize whatever come near. Final notes: I have just bits ordered a number of the small skeletal wings from the spawn kit and will be adding them to truly emphasize the "plague angel" aspect of this army. http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/P8290303.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/P8290305.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/P8290304.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/P8290302.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/P8290301.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/P8290299.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/P8290300.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/P8290311.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/P8290312.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/P8290310.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/P8290307.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/P8290308.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/P8290306.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/P8290309.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
