Not that I know how to play, anyways… But I have been collecting and painting “as if”, lately. Finishing the Nurgle Knight for the ongoing “Jewel of July” community challenge by Azazel, totally motivated me to get the minis out of the shelf and make them march for a group picture. It… stands out. Another…

After a quick trip home for some unavoidable errands, I got the loose parts I had packed and forgot. All together now. Just missing the two bloatflies, a plume on the rigid incense burner of the arm, and the paint to go on the new parts… Then, removing it from the can, retouch the trim…

A little update. Some little touches of paint, and some brain actually used to apply sand pigments this time. I used matt medium, and then, dusted the pigment over. Used matt varnish to fix it, but from further than last time… But specially, took some pictures in which the work can be better seen. A…

Highlights… Lots of edge highlights. And retouches here and there. This is it, at first light… Note to self. Don’t do that. Direct light looks dramatic but kills areas in shadow. Tomorrow I’ll be grabbing the loose bits, and hopefully… After doing some work on the cloth, it might be called finished/abandoned! Any advice/criticism/suggestion, would…

Lots of little details tackled… The tentacles needed more interest, so I free-handed some striations, mixing layers of the two flesh tones I’ve been using, plus GW dwarf flesh. The screens/gems/diodes got a highlight of blood red, a shadow of pure black, and a hotspot of white, same as the Nurglings’ eyes. The beak got…

Fleshy abundance… I got to work a bit more into the soft areas, adding BFTBG, and CARROBURG CRIMSON into the recesses. The wooden post for the banners on the back, was showing some nice and naturalist gradients, so I tried to just filter it somewhat using CHESTNUT. The stubbers under the shoulders were weathered with…

I’m approaching the stage of leave it, or screw it? A bit unsure on the transition I made on the front beak, going from GUNMETAL BLUE to SILVER… I made a black oil pin wash on many if not all of the panels and transitions, like cables and borders. Blisters were based with AVERLAND SUNSET…

Today has seen a lot o little juicy progress on the abomination! Nurglings got almost finished! A variety of color glaces, with Nurgling green in the mix, a wash of Vallejo magenta for the mouths, teeth and eyes picked out in white, then Vallejo FLUOR GREEN. The horns saw a lot of back and forth…

So today, I checked that all the tubing was based… and had barely missed one or two. I then used alcohol with confidence to clean the inevitable (in my case) splotchy messes I had done here and there. Knowing that I can strip paint locally, and by layers (if careful) it’s amazing! I then washed…
