GuitaRasmus Posted November 6, 2012 Author Share Posted November 6, 2012 Wow, this newest head really seems to part the waters - interesting. :) I'll have to say that the new head really does look better in person - theres a lot of detail that can't be seen on the crappy pics of green stuff - like rivets, battle damage, etc. I've primed him tonight, and I'm still very happy with the head - I'm sure you'll be convinced when I get some paint on him. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Circus Nurgling Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 The head almost lends to the whole of the model. Where before I was focused on the head, with the zerker helmet, now I'm drawn to the whole model and the head is an interesting point. It fits better with your scheme, imo, as well, and as you said I think it will be much better received with paint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cathar the great Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 I am throwing money and pants at the screen but nothing is happening :-( Seriously though, I can only repeat my earlier sentiment: You know what 40k is about, man. How hard was it to seperate the Oblit parts from the model to use them on yours? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuitaRasmus Posted November 11, 2012 Author Share Posted November 11, 2012 I've gotten some paint on Pandemion, the scourge of life. I'm pretty pleased with it, I would have liked the head to be more of a focal point, being lighter in colour, but it was a challenge doing that while still having contrast to the lower face. Still, I like him a lot. I hope the paint makes him look better for those of you that didn't like the new head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terminatorinhell Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 That is officially the coolest nurgle lord I have ever seen, I wasnt sure of the new helmet at first but now that it's painted its incredibly menacing and looks just plain sick.

Brother_Iron Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 You have some amazing models on this thread. I was never a fan of Nurgle marines, they always seemed a bit comical to me, but these guys are actually scary. Excellent work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sh0sen Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 I love the colour pallete, everything flows and fits so well. Plus with the new head you know for certain he's Nurgle, without being bloated and covered in puss and boils. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GuitaRasmus Posted November 12, 2012 Author Share Posted November 12, 2012 Thanks a lot guys. :) Pandemion had his baptism in fire tonight, against Validar (user here) and his Grey Knights, and beat them to a pulp. He challenged and killed off a terminator justicar, a librarian, a grand master and a dreadknight. Job well done. :cuss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VoidWarrior Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 Sorry if you've already covered it, didn't see it when i read through the thread though, would you mind sharing your recipe for the dirty white? It's this thread that inspired me to choose death guard for the new codex, and would like to recreate the pre-heresy colours gone dirty effect you have going on.

Grimtooth Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 Great Typhus counts-as. Seriously epic skills and easily could teach GW design team a thing or two. When I win the lotto, be ready for a massive commissions. Hahahahaha! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iron Warrior w/ Servo Arm Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 When I see threads like this, I wonder why I even bother converting and painting.... Awesome job dude!

Mordarien Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 When I see threads like this, I wonder why I even bother converting and painting.... Awesome job dude! ^ ^ This...

GuitaRasmus Posted November 18, 2012 Author Share Posted November 18, 2012 Thanks a lot. :) I'm messing with an idea for a maulerfiend, but the concept is not quite finalized yet. I am considering using a heldrake as basis. :) Sorry if you've already covered it, didn't see it when i read through the thread though, would you mind sharing your recipe for the dirty white? It's this thread that inspired me to choose death guard for the new codex, and would like to recreate the pre-heresy colours gone dirty effect you have going on. Yup, covered that (alot! ;) ) before, but I'll tell one more time. :) Prime with skull white, paint all trims knarloc green (dilluted, so the sharp edges shine through, giving "autohighlights") and wash with dilluted devlan mud. Afterwards all recesses are carefully painted with badab black wash. When I see threads like this, I wonder why I even bother converting and painting.... Awesome job dude! EDIT: That chaos lord reminds me of the Mouth of Sauron. Can you post a tutorial on how you made the head? Erm... I am not really up to doing another one in green stuff, but I can tell you the process. Basically cut down cheekbones and horns on a plaguebearer head, pin a plastic horn the forehead (so the plastic glue will adhere to the plastic head, insted of trying to glue it to green stuff - very little contact surface.), and carefully sculpt the helmet from there. It's not that difficult, just take your time and mind the sharp edges. The rivets on the bottom are made from small dots of white carpenters glue, ala the eyes on the fly. Hope it helps. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
