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.
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?
ReplyDeleteAye, 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.
Cheers!
DeleteI'm planning some kind of mounted knight for the warband. But I don't really have a plan for it.
That is awesome. Where would we be without the Flagellant box set?
ReplyDeleteThanks :)
DeleteI try to use other heads on my conversions, but in the end the ones from the Flagellants are always best!
So good, Helge.
ReplyDeleteThanks :)
DeleteWow, that is great! The Tyranid legs are unexpected, but work very nicely (and are certainly cheaper than those wood elf deer). Great posing too.
ReplyDeleteCheers!
DeleteI'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.
Thanks :)
ReplyDeleteCreepy looking sod. Perfectly suited to a Garden of Nurgle setting. Wonder what his pan-pipes would be made from?
