plaguewolf Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 Hi! been a coulpe of years since i posted anything here.... been playing with some wolves and had a 2 year break from wh40k but now im here and i miss the Death guard so im going to make a very special army, every model are going to get the love it deserve and im going to make everyting the way I want.. but please say what you think, criticism are always good.. I havent got my plague marines from forge world yet (hopefully tomorrow). but I have started with a champion and a Daemon prince... Aspiring Champion (love the nurgle elk horn head=) http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d183/plaguewolf/2012-07-09173021.jpg Daemon prince http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d183/plaguewolf/2012-07-09193649.jpg http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d183/plaguewolf/2012-07-09193703.jpg http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d183/plaguewolf/2012-07-09193723.jpg someone will say that thats to small for a DP, but im not finish, not even close.. it will get nice big wings and it will be taller.. anyone know some wings that will look good on him? and of course the inspiration for this model... http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d183/plaguewolf/Mortarion.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/256087-death-guard-wip-paint-update-238/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azekai Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 Good to see you return to Nurgle! As far as wings go, Mortarion's don't appear very rotten- I would suggest either fantasy eagle or pegasus wings. Are you gonna give him a respirator? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/256087-death-guard-wip-paint-update-238/#findComment-3115708 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Circus Nurgling Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 Carrion wings would fit, but they look a bit rotted... the Scibor wings would be perfect, and I suppose you could use the donor model for some other project, like, say, another daemon prince (and use Carrion wings or other on it). http://sciborminiatures.com/en_,shop.php?art=1292 Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/256087-death-guard-wip-paint-update-238/#findComment-3115738 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Circus Nurgling Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 Carrion wings looks good, they should be a little rotten.. im not going to give him respirator, the face are to evil and cool.. Well, that's not really a respirator, so you could preserve that evil-looking face you have there and pay homage to the artwork as well. It's a device that puts out gaseous fumes, similar to his toxic homeworld of Barbarus, which he needs to breathe. It sits in front of his face, not on it.

Jay Taint Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 That's an awesome looking start, sir. I don't like the artwork too much, but your pick of a model makes a great DP and I absolutely don't think he's too small. It's not about size, you know? Having said that, I'm not too sure about the purity seals. I'd scrape them off or cover them with equipment, but that's really just a matter of taste. I mean, they could be like daemonic (impurity) seals. Keep it going, I'll follow this one.

Azekai Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 Wow those are bigger than I expected- looks good though. Increases is stature and makes him look suitably daemonic. Nice use of the militia heads on the Plague Marines. Keep it up!

Chaeron Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 I like the pipes - very like Typhus' destroyer hive - I just think they're perhaps too big?

Sception Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 Awesome work so far. Like you I prefer plainer Death Guard over the bloated look. Iron Armor + Renegade Heads = awesome. I like your 'pipe' backpacks, at least from the angle we see. Could we get a pick of them from behind, so we could get a better look?

Jay Taint Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Well, that backpack story is difficult. I don't like them either as they are, but I love the idea and I might fool around a bit with backpacks and plastic tubes as soon as I'll get back to my desk next week ... I'd think you're having too much tube for a backpack. I'd try only, say, two of them, chop them down much shorter, and put them on the backpack top -- instead of taking all the effort to let them grow them out of the actual backpack front (which is the model's rear). Perhaps you could also get tubes with a smaller diameter and mix and match. The ones you've got look rather large for what I'm thinking of. But that's just my 2 cents, no idea if it's helpful at all. You're doing a great job and I'll definitely follow!

Circus Nurgling Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 The backpacks. I'm not saying yours aren't good. I like the large tubes, but they need to be tempered by several smaller ones. Take a look at the Typhus model. See all the little ancillary tubes, much smaller than the main tubes? That's what I mean. That's just how I'd do it, and I'm not saying yours don't or won't look good with the greenstuff filling in the spaces, but maybe play around with the idea and see if you like it. Your assaulty arms look good, btw. The work paid off.

plaguewolf Posted July 23, 2012 Author Share Posted July 23, 2012 A little update on the DP.. the GS on the back at the pipes are going to get some detailing so don't worry it looks plain and flat.. It is pretty big, and i'm not sure there is any wings or other fly things that is suitable to it, so this will probably become a GUO... not sure yet http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d183/plaguewolf/2012-07-23203724.jpg http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d183/plaguewolf/2012-07-23203657.jpg http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d183/plaguewolf/2012-07-23203622.jpg http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d183/plaguewolf/2012-07-23203550.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/256087-death-guard-wip-paint-update-238/#findComment-3130089 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fullbrook Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 I love your deamon prince, never even thought of using that model as a base but it works really well. the iron armour + cutlist heads work really well too, how are you planning on painting them death guard or warband? really looking forward to painted pics.
