Death Guard Terminator #4

You loyal pawns of Nurgle that read my posts regularly will have seen some of these lads before.

This one is the 4th of 7 for the squad.

I've really enjoyed painting these, and I finally feel like my painting has started to progress again.

I'm at the point now, where I want to buy some decent quality brushes, like Windsor & Newton series 7s.

The site I've recently started writing for, CoreHammer has recently had an article on it about the various brushes available, so please check it out.

I'm not going to go into the painting process here, as I've done an in depth version of that for Corehammer, which can be found here

Here are a couple of pics of the finished article:

Death Guard marine #12

I'm doing well this week. I'm almost becoming prolific or something!!

Here's another plague marine, following my usual colour scheme...

Something strange has also been bothering me this week.  It's had an unexpected effect on me.
A guy called Tony Sly from an American punk rock band called No Use For A Name was found dead earlier this week.  41 years old. That's only 6 years older than me.  It kind of makes a dude feel quite mortal when somebody from the same larger sub-culture, of roughly the same generation pops it..

It'd been a while (12 - 14 years!!) since I'd listened to them, as they'd not released anything that I'd been too interested in for 12 - 14 years (probably coinciding with Chris Shifflet joining Foo Fighters, actually).  Sad times.  I've been having a bit of a nostalgia trip. Here's a clip of Tony doing a tune acoustic style with Joey Cape from Lagwagon. R.I.P.

Another 3D Death Guard sketch

I've blue-tacked another couple of fine gentlemen. Continuing the theme of yesterday's (or was it the day before?) post.

Again I've used MaxminiEU Biohazard heads and backpacks.  I'm really into these, they give an interesting look to the miniature. Heavy duty breathing apparatus that seems to be powered by a personal furnace.

If you like this stuff, then you can find it here: MaxminiEU

I've also used Anvil Industries Steam Lord medieval legs, which I think give a nice pre-Heresy feel to the models.  You can find their stuff on eBay, or on their website: Anvil Industry

Anyways, here are some pics.

Before I glue this together, I will drill out the bolter barrel. 

This chap is carrying a flamer, which you can't tell too well from

this angle

The plan with this one is to link the under-slung canister on the
flamer to the large tank on his back by means of some type of
pipe or tube or fuel line
