Chaos nurgle ogres - Extreme makeover edition

[Rijswijk]

Insane conversions and à lovely oxidation color sceme.

[Acerbus]

Always good to see your work animerik! Your plogs tend to be my favorites.

[G.Hawke]

this log is insane, its not often i delve into fantasy logs, but this one has me hooked!

[GhoulStars]

Excellent log so far. Not sure if this has been asked (too busy looking at all the awesome pictures) but what medium are you using to sculpt with?

[Griffonclaw]

Your logs are always spectacular and never fail to deliver us some modelin' and painting goodness!
Great to see you're still doing it since being off the radar (maybe only my radar?) For a bit. Are you still working on yiour normal nurgle chaos forces as well?

[Baggers]

Amazing stuff, keep it up. I would love to see an army shot.

++UPDATE++

Oh my it has been so long since I updated this so it almost feels embarrassing.

Well first a pic from when a friend (and a great inspirator!)

(check his log here ->http://www.warseer.com/forums/showth...light=cassarus)

More or less finished the 'son of sulfur' (firebelly)

Still some detail do finish up etc but most of the stuff is in the right place.
More pics:

Worked a bit more on the boarhobgoblins



And I was visited by a friend (Spjuth on warseer) who is a great sculptor and really inspiring to work with! (shamless link to his log -> http://www.warseer.com/forums/showth...ghlight=spjuth)
Here are some of the fruits from that day. First up some more leadbelchers:

However things will have to wait for some time now because I have a really interesting (and big) commission which will have a log in a near future....

Cheers and thanks for watching

[Grain Weevil]

"Son of Sulfur" is just great. Keep it up

[was1974]

Noce cool conversions and painting. Love your base for your son of sulfur.

[Monsterzonk]

Your work, as always, is really inspiring! Love the conversion work and of course your painting. You really make your models come alive. Well done and keep it up!

Cheers,
Monsterzonk

I'm sluggishly trying to get back into posting some progress but commission work, real life, training, x-mas, and a funeral have kept me busy enough...

Well back to progress (or something of the sorts), I acquired some more golgfags ogres and I thought that I would show some 'before' and 'after' pics of them.


and some progress on the last four bulls. Still in heavy WIP



Thanks for watching and let's just hope that I can get my mojo (and free time) back

[Dino]

It's been a long while sence I've seen this log updated. These look very promising. Keep it up.

[Monsterzonk]

Those are looking great already! And spotting Festus in the backdrop really made my heart jump with excitement... Looking forward to seeing this log progress!

Cheers,
Monsterzonk

[Darkoth10]

Very cool conversion work. Keep up the good work.



Cheers,

Hey great stuff!
Could I ask you about your hobgoblins, did you replace the LOTR orc arms and weapons? you's just seem to look more dynamic then the original ones.
Thanks, keep it up

Want more updates! Your stuff has always been highly inspirational through the years. We play down at Studiefrämjandet most Sundays, you should show up!

[Animerik]

++Update++

Another half eternity has past since last updates... I still blame real life for it! I have tons of work to atm so the hobby is getting a bit pushed aside for the time being. However every now and then I have time to fiddle with the minis and here are some early WIPs of my hunters. I went for hobgoblins but not for sneaky gits as I first intended. Instead I went with a feral hobgoblin idea. I think of them as the hobgoblins that are ferocious and feral, still not domesticated into the ranks of more organized societies (i.e. chaos dwarf). They are feral, primitive and bloodthirsty little buggers which are feared by other hobgoblins as rumors say that they are cannibals and gravedesicraters.

For the minis I turned to the new Hobbit range and got a pack of the hunter orcs. I then pillaged my Dark elf/dark eldar bit box as well as throwing in some gnoblar bits. I'm quite happy with them so far, and there will be a filler on the back ranks.





Cheers and thanks for looking!

Monsterzonk: Don't want to disappoint you but that backpack is part of a commission... i.e. not for the ogres

CaptainMee: Thanks! I can't remember what I did with them, the weapons were switched and quite a bit of bits and gs was added. I do believe that I changed some poses.

Satan:Thanks for the invitation, I seldom play but if I will I'm coming down to studiefrämjandet

[Ghod]

Agreed with the others... This log and your commission one are some of the coolest nurgle stuff going.

[G.Hawke]

oh god i love this thread, every inch of it is win.

Ever considered warrior of chaos book troll army? could be a fun alternative way to play it.

[Jonahmaul]

Great idea for the Gnoblars, looking forward to seeing more of them and some paint thrown on.
