Champion of Nurgle WIP

Here's a WIP of my Champion of Nurgle. This was a freebie from a friend of mine that previously painted and used back in his Warhammer Days of Glory! After a long bath in Pine Sol and heavily scrubbing with my no longer in commission tooth brush I was able to clean up most of the mini. Missed a few spots left under his chin..but what the hey..he's nurgle it'll look natural. Still have more to do on the base and I'm wanting to add some more flare to the pike..maybe some decayed ribbons. *shrugs*

So what if you got Halo Reach..Space Marines kick @$$

Ok, so mayyyybe I have been very slacked when it comes to posting my WIPs on here...*Looks at work bench* 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, oh blah I give up. Too many that's how many. Well I did manage to take some pics today of my nephews present. I was up until 2:30 A.M. painting the marine and prepping the base. For some reason I just so happen to have a lighhhhht bulb around 11 last night. It just hit me..hey instead of buying your nephew something just paint a mini for him. Well I springed into action. Snips were cutting sprues, sand paper was flying all over the place..joint compound was getting slopped all over the base and I was throwing anything from the bits box I could find into it. After all was said and done and rushing home today to throw some dirt on the base and painting it while the glue was still drying and having to paint the base as well only to have to add some more highlights after the matte finish dulled the blending and made me want to pull what's left of my hair out only to to get everything together and put in a box and package carefully rush over the parents house watch him open present after present then to get to finally get the present I brought him only to *GASPs for AIR!!!* look at it and say uhh so what is it..then stare at it like rain man trying to figure out if this is his real present. So I then say remember it's those miniatures I paint and he says oh from that game...I just nod and say yeah that's it. *bangs head on keyboard* So after opening some cards he got and a few checks to cash..what's this you say..one more present. He begins to open the carefully wrapped package. Light shines down from the heavens upon this little child and all of a sudden you'd think he was having a seizure he starts bouncing up and down in his chair screaming YES!!! YES!! Well everyone looks at each in the room and says guess all we had to do is pitch in for that game and that would of saved us some trouble...Ok one day I'm going to teach this kid to do something besides click a damn controller button and know more than me about hand to hand combat and every dang gun there is. Stupid video games...know if you excuse me I have to go play some Killzone 3! Oh yeah! Here's the pics of the mini I painted for him. Enjoy :)
