Nurgle Faun



With my Great Unclean One competition coming up in two weeks, I thought you all needed some Nurgle inspiration! Here is my first Nurgle Faun. I'm planning to make a small warband of these guys. I'll paint them to match my Poxwalkers and and the Black Pox Pestigor warband I made last year. However, I'll try to keep the technological parts to a minimum, so I also can use the fauns as a warband for AoS28.

I filmen all the steps when I painted this guy. I'm planning to make a YouTube channel and start making a few painting and converting videos. But editing videos are harder and more time consuming than I thought, so it'll still be a little while until the first video is done. 






The Faun are based on a Plaguebearer with Tyranid Gaunt legs. The hands and axe are form a Poxwalker, and the head is from an Empire Flagellant.

  1. Gorgeous work (if gorgeous is a word that could ever be applied to a disgusting rot monster)! I'd have never considered using Tyranid bits on a humanoid; I really need to start thinking outside the box. Are you planning to do any characters/monsters to go with the warband?

    Aye, video editing is a bit of a time sink. It gets easier with practice, but unfortunately always takes a good bit of time. It'll be worth it though! I look forward to seeing your process in real time.

      I'm planning some kind of mounted knight for the warband. But I don't really have a plan for it.

  2. That is awesome. Where would we be without the Flagellant box set?

    1. Thanks :)
      I try to use other heads on my conversions, but in the end the ones from the Flagellants are always best!

  3. Wow, that is great! The Tyranid legs are unexpected, but work very nicely (and are certainly cheaper than those wood elf deer). Great posing too.

      I've made a few conversions with the deer legs as well. But they are a lot thinner, so Tyranid legs definitely work better on Plaguebearers.

  4. Creepy looking sod. Perfectly suited to a Garden of Nurgle setting. Wonder what his pan-pipes would be made from?

  6. Wishing good fortune to everyone who comes across this comment! I went bankrupt last year due to failed business ideas. I used to enjoy playing the lottery for fun but as my situation worsened, I sought help to win big this time and found a man called Dr. Alaska, who has assisted numerous individuals worldwide with their financial issues. This man prepared a powerful spell for me and in my dreams, his spell revealed the winning lottery numbers to me just as he said. I played the game with the numbers and to my astonishment, I discovered that I had won a $345 million Jackpot; I’m now free of debt. Without Dr. Alaska, I wouldn’t have made it through the tough times I experienced last year. Truly, Dr. Alaska is a divine presence among us. If you are currently struggling, reach out to Dr. Alaska through the below informations
