Nurgle daemon prince with wings conversion

To finish off my tyranid beating list i am constructing a winged nurgle prince. In this post i will show you a step by step of how i done it.
 First of the sprues, wings, and construction:





My idea was to, instead of putting the smoke stacks on the back, put wings on instead. I bought some dragon wings from the GW site. I am going to carve a small indent on either side of the model and chop the sticky out bits on the wings in two so that it can fit in the holes i am making so that the wings will be sturdier. I will then green stuff the wings to that they blend seamlessly into the model. Here here are the 'holes':










And now the finished model.









Altogether i am thourghly pleased with the result. The wings are holding like a treat and it looks fantastic.

I will be painting this up soon so i will show some pics when its done. Until then.

Simple nurgle daemon painting tutorial


This is a super easy, super quick, super outcome paint scheme for daemons of nurgle. Heres a list of all the paints you will need:
White primer
Arthonian camoshade
Seraphim sepia
Cassanndora yellow
Carroburg crimsom
Screaming bell
Agrax earthshade
Lead belcher (optional)

You will notice that most of these are washes (or shades). This is because shades are easier to do then highlighting (a lazy way to paint models if you will) and i don't want to have to use 30 paints on each model.

First, spray the models white. Any spray will do (to an extent) but I would recommend using  Games Workshop skull white. Your going to need an even coat.

Next, wash all the cuts, guts, mouths and holes carroburg crimsom, then wash all boils, eyes, and bumps cassanndora yellow.

Paint the swords screaming bell, then wash agrax earthshade. If you feel like it, highlight/drybush lead belcher to give a rusted effect.

The remainder of the model that is still white (not bone, leave that white) is then washed arthonian camoshade.

After this wash anything that isn't  the sword seraphim sepia as this will fill in a left over white spaces and blend everything together.

So there you have it. A super simple and quick way to paint your nurgle daemons with.

Look forward to space wolf, ork, and other daemon painting tutorials!

3rd times a charm...

 So this are the pics of my current mono nurgle daemon army (800 points):
