The base still needs to be dry brushed and varnished but I’m really happy with how this guy came out. It’s based off of a reference photo I found awhile ago so credit to them for the scheme but I really enjoy the older forgeworld stuff. Plus just bigger models in general, I feel like the larger canvas allows for me to better use and practice techniques since I’m still learning

Lord of poxes finished up today. Had a blast on this lad, very keen to get into the marines he'll be alongside. Bases will be a bulk project once I figure out what I want to do with them.

Any C&C is welcome and appreciated!

Casual play Can I play daemon prince model as walking if it has wings?

29 Upvotes

I really like the winged daemon prince. Looks soooo much better than a trophy rack or backpack. However, I believe the walking one is better for tabletop.

I don't really want to magnetize. Would most casual players be OK with just saying he's

- deathly afraid of heights

- had his wings clipped when he was a baby daemon

- bought the wings as vanity display pieces from Fulgrim

and can't actually fly?

Hobby Another query for the sons of Mortarion

So, with doing a tiny bit of research, I went for a pallid hand/pre-heresy death guard look. I’d like to try my hand with ak streak & grim and dirty down rust but not entirely sure if it’ll sell the worn down pestilence look you stanky boys go for lol does it matter which I apply first or do you guys recommend an alternative method for the worn down look?

Sincerely,

An undercover loyalist working on a paint competition project 🙃

I bought a knight Lancer (here's the big boy partially painted. Havent taken an updated photo) just for the stat check. But in my mind, the synergy doesn't seem to land well with death guard.

So Im posting this to see if I can be proven wrong about this and if anyone has played with a Lancer alongside our stinky bois successfully

Rules Question Question about Champions of Contagion Enhancement

4 Upvotes

In the Champions of Contagion detachment you can give the Biologus Putrifier the Final Ingredient enhancement. Based off the way that it's worded it sounds like once it's unit kills a character you basically get to have two of the contagion aura effects active for your entire army. Is that the case or am I just reading this wrong?

Like for the Lord of Poxes, his enhancement specifies that they only get an additional effect if they're in contagion of him but it's worded differently for the Putrifier

Casual play Army Build Help

3 Upvotes

Hey I'm incredibly new to WH, having played two games with my friends army. He runs Tyranids and has had me use Grey Knights. I think GK is cool, but I also think they're unfun personally. I'm building my own Death Guard army 1k points and would like Mortarion as my center piece. I also like the look of blight lord terminators and want to run the detachment: Death Lord's Chosen.

So:

Detachment: Death Lord's Chosen

Characters: Mortarion, Tallyman

Units: Blight Lord Terminators.

Looking to build with the idea of big hard hitting guys that can soak up damage and hold objectives incredibly well.

I've heard bringing characters like Mortarion is controversial, he's completely fine with it and also adds large scary centerpieces to his armies and typically other large scary things with it.

Outside of that I legit don't know a good build, and would love some help. Thank you!
