Nurgle Warrior - Double Skulls and Disturbing Tentacles

This was a long time coming: Second Warrior for the team Nurgle.



Start of the build: scrap from three different sources. Firstly the main body parts from Kinder Easter Egg surprise Kai character for Kung Fu Panda 3. Left hand gauntlet and the head are left over bits from GW Ogre Kingdoms sprue. Base is a cork from some French cognac, wooden part marked with Fleur-de-lis.



The Kai figure had a rubber band operated swinging system, band removed and torso pinned and glued together.





Bits attached and some mould lines filed away.



Big holes on the back just called for some green stuff tentacles...



First layer of green stuff modifications.



Some more green stuff and texture paint for the base. This Nurgle Warrior is the first to get a leveling bonus: "Block" skill marked to the base.



Some painting in and the second skill advance is "Guard".

Red Skull Nurgle Warrior - Painting

After first primary colors and few ink washes. Base still unfinished.



Brass on the gauntlet and knuckledusters ink washed with Citadel Thraka green.



Back view of the Nurgle infested boils, pus and tentacles. Arm band still missing colors and highlights all round.

Nurgle Warrior - Red Skull mod with Green stuff

Initial layer of Green stuff: Red Skull signature officer leather jacket. Knife and drill work to make the left hand gauntlet corrupted the Nurgle way. Chipping away at the legs to give room for sculpted boots.



Tentacles of Nurgle now control the animate body of Red Skull - added knuckleduster to the right hand. These hands are made for casualty score not ball handling.



Nurgle's Rot has taken it's toll - boils and puss ooze out of the leather jackets shoulders. Hail Hydra armband on the left bicep.

New Project: Nurgle Team for Blood Bowl

Starting to build Nurgle team from scratch - the initial inspiration came from Easter Kinder surprise chocolate egg. The figure that came from the egg was football playing Beagle Boy - the scale was just perfect for strength 4 Nurgle Warrior.

Necro team Flesh Golem mod from Nurgle Chaos Lord

Team Necros coffers are filled with enough gold to get the second Flesh Golem - and this bad boy might fit the bill just nicely.



Staring point - the Nurgle Chaos Lord miniature sprue. Really nice details and not this new Finecast bullshit, but good old grey plastic. No miscasts and parts fit snugly, good work all around.



The big axe just had to go - no weapons on the Blood Bowl pitch (well, just Secret Weapons anyway). The shoulder pad is very Blood Bowl oriented as is, and really like that corrosion look that fits the Necro team look well. All armor pieces have been underground for some time and are not shiny or new.



Model assembled without new hands. The original miniature had the axe handle buried deep in the belly of the beast, so without the weapon there was big opening in the flesh. Some Zombie gut from Vampire Counts Regiment box fit the hole nicely enough.



After the axe was removed the hands seemed to be -well- too tiny... So looked around the bit box and found these Ogre Kingdoms spare part hands laying around. These hands say 4 Strength.



There is notable tone difference in the plastics, but after some file and knife work they fit together as good as you might want things to fit on these Frankenstein monster inspired Flesh Golems.
