40k: Chaos Squat om Exo Armour

YO!

Another 40k Chaos dude: Chaos Squat om Exo Armour. Took a quite experimental approach to painting this one:

• I didn't know what to do so I started with a dark bronze base coat. Still didn't know what to do...
• ...but yes let's do a few washed with white!?
• Then decided to do a kind of a reversed paint-job with keeping the white in the recesses and layer up to black on the high points and edges.
• Before that I took a toothbrush and splashed red glaze.
• Took a similar approach to the hoses with light orange in the recesses and dark red on the tops.

The plan was to to a Nurgle dude but I guess this turned out a lot more Khorne. So a new addition to the little Khorne Warband :)

40k Nurgle Renegades

Ahoj hoj!

Vacations and stuff so again a month of not a lot of painting...except two Nurgle Renegades!

Really cool minis. The one furthest below I painted in a similar way I do with the fantasy stuff. The first one though I went for a more deceased look and worn look which was a lot of fun to do.

Must paint a few moooooore!

Nurgle Army Update: New additions to the Creature unit

Hello!

Not much activity on the blog or communities from me for a while. Too much other stuff at the moment I'm afraid. Manged a bit of painting here and there though and added a few more to the creature unit introduced here.

So here are four new - hope you enjoy!

Citadel Runequest: Demons, Rult: A great Runequest mini just perfect for a Nurgle army. Did it with more typical nurgle colors witch I think suited its ragged look.

Citadel Runequest: Demons, Rult

Citadel Runequest: Broo / Beastman: Really cool Broo. Also added a nurgling to the base and got to paint a shield as well. Been a while since I done that. Kept the back & white approach. Quite tricky painting the shield as there where tiny reliefs on it demanding consideration. The idea for the design is the classic nurgle symbol where each relief is in the center of one of the three circles.

Citadel Runequest: Demons, Stalker: Another Runequest demon, this time a Stalker. Kept the palette very simple on this one.

Citadel Fantasy Specials: FS52 Large Statue: This is as the name suggests intended to be a statue. I thought though it would be perfect to this unit as an odd creature. Especially liked that it had a pedestal. Added something extra to the unit. Also on this one I kept the palette simpler focusing on light browns and blues/turquoise. The intention was to have a skin tone like feel with an added creepiness by the blues/turquoise. A little snake was induced as well on the mushroom (not sure which series)

The Crabman!

Finished the Citadel Fiend Factory FF4-1 Crabman.

A very old citadel miniature. Part of the very first releases appearing in White Dwarf 12 (April / May 1979). The sculpts of these old minis varies a lot and I think you would agree this isn't the best. I like it though. In particular what I like with the old and strange is that they open up to your own interpretation and creativity. I.e. A weird mini = a weird paint job :)

Citadel Fiend Factory FF4-1 Crabman

It will be part of my new beast man unit which will probably be more of a creature unit (introduced here)

Found this illustration of it on the oldhammer forum:

Hope you enjoy it and thanks for stopping by
