Pox Walkers- quick and dirty

Salutations, pals. I took a quick and dirty approach to razzing out some pox walkers. Well, it should've been quick anyway. In reality, I grabbed a bit of time here and there over a couple of months, and this is what came out of it.  Apologies for the egregious over-exposure from camera flash on the majoirty of these, but the lighting was terrible.  The first 4 were taken without flash, so the bits with gloss varnish in the mix, are less offensive. If I get round to it, I'll try for some better pictures soon...

Spot a guest appearance from Mol as a pox walker. I even managed to get his bionic arm and tentacles in there for added dynamic realism. Norf!

Denizens of the Garden of Nurgle - Pestigors: the 4th completed

Alas the common cold persists and serves only to aggravate my general sense of working class malaise and existential angst.  Conveniently, the 4th and final installment of  my series of pestigors addresses (and I hope embodies) this.

I think this is probably both my favourite conversion of the four, and also has probably the best (in my opinion) paint job...

Behold.

Denizens of the Garden of Nurgle - Pestigors: the 3rd completed

As I've found myself with a moment to breathe (or at least attempt to do so through the remains of the snot - I'm no longer contagious, I promise), I thought I might as well put up the next Pestigor.

What can I tell you about this one? His armour is in the best condition of the four, but Grandfather Nurgle has seen fit to bestow upon him some chitinous insectile apendages. You may draw your own conclusions as to whether this makes him first or last amongst equals...

Either way, look upon his grim visage and despair etc. etc.

Pretty happy with how the model turned out post-painting, in particular the mottling on the insect limbs...

Denizens of the Garden of Nurgle - Pestigors: the 2nd completed

By the Elder Gods! Time can get away from you. Sick baby, sick wife. For sooth, Grandfather Nurgle truly bestowed his blessings 'pon my household this week.

Anyway, I'm too exhausted to think of anything clever or inspirational to say in relation to this guy. I'll let him speak for himself, like.  Admittedly, of the four pestigors I've completed, I think this might be the one I'm least happy with. Don't feel like I thinned out the Blood for the Blood God enough. Hopefully it doesn't overpower the rest of the model though.

Denizens of the Garden of Nurgle - Pestigors: the 1st completed

Here we are, a mere 7 months (plus a few days) since I started labouring over the Denizens of the Garden of Nurgle project.  For those that don’t know, I became a father in May, so by virtue of this, I’ve had next to no time to do any painting or other related activities.  I’ve been managing to find the odd hour here and there, though, and thus am able to present the first of the four Pestigors…

Denizens of the Garden of Nurgle: Pestigors the 3rd & 4th

I finally finished building the last two of my Denizens of the Garden of Nurgle.

One day, I hope to get these painted, but I'm getting at best 1 hour table time per week. Watch this space. Not much will happen while you are watching though.

The fecund and the foul

The benefactor and the beneficiary

The feast for the fallen

Death and the life that springs forth anew
