Chaos Champion of Nurgle
This was a mini I painted several years ago. Unfortunatly, minis back then were still made of lead and could be fragile. This one wound up with a bent sword at one time or another and the paint was cracked. So, I decided today to get him back out and re-paint the sword. While I was at it, I couldn't resist touching up the green armor too. When we were playing Warhammer at the time he was first painted, one of my friends liked to play Chaos, so I painted this guy for his army general. He always liked to give him the Bone Blade as a magic item, so I decided to paint the sword that way. The sword has a base coat of Bleached Bone, with a wash of Snakebite Leather. After that, I built the highlights back up with very thin layers of Bleached Bone thinned down with water and a drying retarder. Then I went back in with thinned down Snakebite Leather again in specific areas, and for the darkest parts of the sword blade I painted in with thinned down Bestial Brown. The armor was Scorpion Green as a base coat, with thinned down Ork Flesh washed in for the darker recesses. Over all, I'm very pleased with the result. Let me know what you think! Regards, Gordon
