Urutaa: Epidemius the Tallyman of Nurgle

I mostly buy GW miniatures second hand or heavily discounted off ebay or forums, especially expensive character models like this one. Of course that means that they sometimes arrive in a state that leaves something to be desired. This one had many broken parts and needed alot of TLC before it was ready to paint. […]

Maggotkin of Nurgle: The Lord of Plagues

For the Age of Sigmar Chaos Nurgle army. The Maggotkin Lord of Plagues. Skin was done in pale blue, Citadel Druuchi Violet Shade and Citadel Athonian Camoshade at the same time. The armour is painted in much the same way as the Heartbreaker plague warriors. This establishes the style of the mortal part of the […]

Bubble, Boil and Trouble, the Plague Brothers

The three something-chaos warriors from Heartbreaker Hobbies from the earlier Miniatures Rescue post, finished: I call them Bubble, Boil and Trouble, the Plague Brothers. (Most of) the cloak is the only bit I kept from the original paint. How I painted them is documented in that post. Plague Warrriors […]

MMR: Three little Heartbreaker Chaos Warriors

Some minis fall out of grace and by the wayside for one reason or the other, not to be taken out of storage until decades have passed. Decades! Inspired by the OTT “Spring Cleaning” challenge, we will try to heal these broken birds’ wings so they might take to the skies once again. We go […]

HATE: Tribe of Sarrassa

HATE is a big box board game by CMON based on the comic book series “Chronicles of Hate” by Adrian Smith, who happens to be the art director for CMON. Funny coincidence right there for you. Kickstarted by CMON in January 2018 and delivered first quarter 2019. I have not read the Chronicles of HATE, […]

FROGHEMOTH!

I think this might be the last post of the year. From the Bones 3 kickstarter: An excellent stand-in for a Great Unclean One or Daemon Prince of Nurgle; a not-Froghemoth, that has now been renamed “77581 Mudgullet” and is slated for release by Reaper this January. I am sure the froghemoth started […]

Kill Team Rogue Trader: The Gellerpox Infected

The Blanche is strong with this one. As a fan of Warhammer 40k since it was called Rogue Trader, I have found the new direction of the post-Kirby era GW to be uplifting and with the release of many interesting minis I have begun spending money on them again. Kill Team: Rogue Trader is one […]

Urutaa / Death Guard: Herald of Nurgle

Forge World’s Herald of Nurgle! I like this one so much better than the GW Plaguebearer herald mini, which I think is rather uninspired. Half man, half slug, half robot, all baby sitter! This is the companion piece to the Forge World Daemon Prince of Nurgle I recently painted, and comes in […]

Urutaa / Death Guard: Daemon Prince of Nurgle

Forge World’s Daemon Prince of Nurgle! I like this one so much better than the GW space marine daemon prince mini. I bought this second hand some time ago, and now that I have looked at the forgeworld site to see what the name of this mini actually is (turns out it is […]

Urutaa: A Plague of Daemons

Urutaa is a Maori word meaning “pestilence” and “plague” and “fever”. It is also a sound that evokes “METAL!”. So I will call the whole army Urutaa. Because they kill you FILTHY! I bought heavily into the new editon 40k and especially the Death Guard when they were released. At the same time I also […]

Spreading the Disease: Classic Plaguebearers rebased and expanded

Nurgle has always been the Chaos power I found most appealing. With the advent of the Death Guard in the 40k 8th ed starter sets, I have started collecting a new 40k Death Guard army. Yeah, well. A massive fail of the willpower throw there. So I have been building loads of the new models, […]

The Others: 7 Sins: Abominations of Sloth (aka Slimer!)

The abominations of Sloth. As soon as I saw these, I knew what the inspiration for the colour scheme would be: They would have been a better fit if they were abominations of Gluttony, but they are not, so there we are. These also will do double duty as Beasts of Nurgle, or […]
