Gore-grub

For Adepticon I’m building a 1000 point Nurgle Warriors army for tge Rodgepodge event. The Gore-grub chariot will be a centerpiece to this force. 2015/01/img_4715.jpg

Rather than have a Gore-beast pulling a chariot in a conventional manner, I think that a massive resurrected swamp-grub, enslaved in undeath by the foul magicks of Nurgle, toting a Howdah would be very in theme with a highly mutated Nurgle army.

The body of this model is made from a tinfoil armature and layered with super-sculpy and Apoxie-sculpt. The details are primarily done with Greenstuff.

The crew for this beast are coming together. More on them later!

Sculpting & modeling tips on Twitter

Demon Prince, and new Chaos Warriors

With Adepticon right around the corner, I am busting my butt to get my chaos army wrapped up. Here are some new images of the converted chaos warriors, and the Demon Prince.

The Demon Prince is the first fully sculpted miniature I have created.  There is a GW head from the zombie kit stuck into the armor of the demon.  It represents the soul of demon’s final adversary, who’s defeat which triggered his final accent to demonhood.  It was very fun to design, and create, although it took forever to complete. The wings took an especially long time.

These are two different chaos warrior units armed with halberds. The center 4 warriors, including the standard bearer, and the musician are represented by the giant mutant, and the task master behind it (not pictured), whipping it to motivate its rush into combat.
