My Death Guard Project

[Leminy_Fresch]

So, I finally got a digital camera and I have begun snaping off photos. Not long ago I started a Death Guard army and I figure that it will be a long project so the proper place for it would be here.
First off, here is my work station.

Alright, now on to the good stuff.
All of my Plauge Marines have been built out of plastic Chaos Space Marines and converted with green stuff and random bits from the Zombie Regiment box and some Tyranid and Necron bits.
Here are some images of my first two painted Plauge Marines and one that is primed.

Next is a converted and primed Chosen with Reaper Auto Cannon.


Next is a WIP Chosen Aspiring Champion.

Here is my Death Guard Demon Prince.
He is very WIP at the moment.
He is converted from the necron Night Bringer, with Belakors wings on his back and a piece of the Chaos Demon Prince back pack clipped off for the face.



Thats all for now, hope you like it so far.

looking good!

Nice bitz diving for those conversions, looking very solid. The prince is a great start too, and really good use of the backpack piece! Unique painting on the eyes, I like a lot, and the flayed one claw is a nice touch. Only thing I can add is please drill those bolters!

love the prince! ingenious use of the skull! i'll keep my eye on this

[Leminy_Fresch]

I'm stuck on what I should do with the Demon Princes arms. I want to give it a scythe, but I'm not sure how to go about doind it at the moment. Suggestions?

[Boss_Salvage]

At the simplest: use Nightbringer's scythe arm, replacing the blade with something more Nurglesque - tyranid scytal, typhus' scythe, zombie scythe, etc.

[Leminy_Fresch]

That is a good idea, but I was hoping I wouldn't have to use so much of the original Nightbringer model. I'll giv it a shot and snap a pic.

Update time.
Here is a group shot of the stuff I have on base plates.


Here is a Plauge Marines that is WIP.



Here is another Plauge Marine that has been based.

They are converted from The Zombie Regiment box set.

Finally, here is my WIP converted Dreadnaught.

Questions and comments welcome.

Great DG project, looking forward to see more cool convertions!

Oh, and making that defiler look like a big bloated spider (but with 6 legs, heresy I know) gone horribly wrong would be nice to see, just a idea I got while looking around in here. You clearly got the GS skills and conversion madness to do it ^^

[Satan Dingo 420]

those are some of the best Plague Bearer models I've yet seen. Excellent work!

Hmmmm...I like that idea. Maybe a combination of a spider and a beetle...like a Tanker Bug from Starship Troopers...only with a massive cannon sticking out of it and lots of rotten and rusty components.
*scratches chin while imagining Tanker Bugs unleashing hell on the poor Mobile Infantry*

those are some of the best Plague Bearer models I've yet seen. Excellent work!

Thank you! I never expected a comment like that. They arent even done yet.

Flawless GS work! Rarely do you see anything that smooth and integrated. Great work all around - the Plague Bearers are already amazing, and I'm sure they'll be better when you're done.

One suggestion - sculpt a bit of a rotten belly onto the Daemon Prince. As it is, his abdominals attract a lot of non-nurgly attention. Definitely don't overdo it, as it's looking really good right now, but just add enough bloat to remind people that this is a Prince of Nurgle they're dealing with.

I'll definitely be watching this intently.

[Boss_Salvage]

Great 'bearers, and I'm a big fan of chaos dreads with 'fex crushing claws. Looking forward to more madness!

OOO! NURGLE! i love to see the converstions on these guys and this thread is amazing. the painting spot on. A suggestion for the dreadnought you could do a rotting corspe all curled up in the little box. just a suggestion

Twilight out!

[Inquisitor Konig]

Love it! I've never seen anyone convert Plague Bearers before... yours are an insperation. I also really like the bug-eyes on the Typhus Model.
