Nurgle Apostate Preacher #2

I've broken out the paints and brushes again after what seems like bloomin' ages.

I finally got around to painting the second of my Nurgle Apostate Preachers. I picked these up at Forge World last year. I was afraid to paint them for ages, for some reason. Both of them were a real treat to paint though, so perhaps I had no real cause to be nervous about it.

The first one can be found at the link below:

Nurgle Apostate Preacher #1

I really love these models. They have an inherent sense of wrongness about them. Take this chap for instance. What purpose do all these tubes and pipes serve? What manner of filth is being pumped around his system and then into his lungs through his archaic breathing apparatus? What filth is he broadcasting through his loud-hailer?

Class.

  3. Thanks guys! It's weird. I didn't really set out with a plan on this one. Just painted, and this is what came out.

    Accidentally stumbled on a new (to me) technique with glazes and paint which played a role here. It certainly bears more investigation!!
