Scratchbuilt Nurgle Daemon Prince and Plague Champion


Recommended Posts

Hello everybody!

 

While I'm awaiting the funds to place an order for the Forge World Death Guard I decided to build some stuff from my bitzbox.

 

First up is my Daemon Prince. I envisioned him bursting out of his Terminator Armour.

 

He's not quite finished but I'm getting there. I would appreciate any input on things to add or change.

 

(The cleaver looks a bit off, but that's cause i haven't glued it on yet, it will be straight)

He will also get wings, I've built the structure for them and will add feathers.

And here's my Plague Champion

These are fantastic :)

 

My only concern though, is the right arm. I agree that it is missing something.. maybe you could buff it out a little? It just seems abit too slender atm.

Thank you everybody!

 

It seems I've grown a bit blind to my own work. I'm going to bulk out the arm a bit, perhaps also put a vambrace resembling the one on theterminator armour on him.

 

@Xavier Targhost: Thats correct sir! I had an old one lying around collecting dust.

Incredible! Not only have you come up with an original nurgle concept. The excution of it is simply incredible. I really like that they are lankier rather than bloated "Michellin Men". Very nice work. I can't wait to see more.

I really like the more slender arm, makes it look wasted, and... well, Nurgly!!

 

Amazing work, truly. Who needs forgeworld orders when they have skills like that? Any chance for a closeup shot of his innards??

Amazing Daemon Prince! I really love the detail and the pose. Same with the Plague Champion, the tentacle arm is ace and I love how you went so far as to give him Blight Grenades to boot. Amazing job.

Thank you once again for the positive feedback everybody!

 

I have fleshed out the arm a bit and I think it should look more in proportion now. What do you guys think?

Very nice conversions. And Im geussing the deamon prince was once a terminator?

 

That's absolutely right.

Thank you! I also like the slim arm, but it is a bit too slim compared to the rest of the body, I think I'll try to make the next model a bit more slender overall.

 

Here's a close up.

The marine looks bigger. True-scale?

 

Yeah, I wanted to try my hands at a biggerized marine. It was fun and I'm really in awe of those with enough patience to do this for an entire army.

 

Hehe biggrin.gif nice smile.gif

Thank you very much! I don't mind that at all, quite the contrary. These boards have inspired me so much and I'm only glad if I can in some way repay that. Cheers!

The guts look awesome, and I thought those were skeletal horse ribcages in there.

 

The arm does look better bulked out, I liked it thin, but it fits the model better now.

Truthfully, I don't expect a Daemon Prince to be completely proportional, they're the essence of Chaos and thus are supposed to be a confounding creature that is antithesis to possible or natural. Great work nonetheless, I love how the arm is still quite apish.
