I've been working on my Nurgle Rotbringers for the last couple months and I'm finally ready to go public with the start of the force! This first batch of troops is basically finished, although I need to do some basing work and a couple touch ups.
The current force is:
- The Glottkin
- Bloab Rotspawn
- Chaos Warshrine (Kitbashed)
- Harbinger of Decay (Kitbashed)
- 15 Putrid Blight Kings
- 30 Chaos Warriors
- Hell cannon
Regarding some general comments, the lore of this force is that it is a legion of Nurgle Rotbringer forces manning a lone Chaos Dreadhold named Mireguard, which is deep in one of the swampy corners of Ghur. I wanted this force to feel a little bit more primitive and beastly with horns being a unifying visual element across the army. This is the reason for the conversions of both the Harbinger and Warshrine. I tried to tie other thematic secondary visual elements across the board as well, including the white fur of the Warshrine beast of burden with the fur of the Chaos warriors and Bloab. If anyone is curious about the specific techniques used to paint various elements, like the pools, horns, or whatever, I'm planning on doing a couple tutorials for these techniques in future blog posts. Let me know if there are specific things you are interested in and I'll make sure to cover those as well.
For sure additions to this force, I have another Hellcannon on the table that just needs its highlighting and glow effects that should be done by the end of the week. I have a number of other units I'll be adding here in the future as I finish them.
Thanks for your interest and I look forward to hearing your feedback and critiques!
