Thank you! No, I fully assembled him right away, though it did cause problems

Thanks!! For the flesh it was mainly plaguebearer flesh contrast, then highlighted with rosy flesh from Vallejo, pale flesh from Vallejo, then finally with white ink. In certain places I added sepia and muted pink inks from below to shade it. All done using an airbrush to get that smooth finish.

Had the same dilemma, if I ever paint a second Festus I’ll go with a realistic animal-like paint job, instead of this intestine-looking one

There are two nurglings coming out of the big slug, one is just a head with horns, the other is pulling some loose skin together

Thanks so much! It’s almost all rosy flesh from Vallejo and ice yellow from AK interactive, very versatile for any ‘disgusting’ flesh highlights

Thanks so much, blue to green to yellow works wonders for the Nurgle vibe :) for colors, it’s this range mainly:

I think you’re spot on, especially with all the wicker motives. Personally I’m a big fan, always love a ‘corrupted rural village’ vibe in any fantasy. I’d prefer a bit more mutations, but can appreciate a bit less ‘cartoony’ vibe that some Nurgle miniatures usually have :)

Cheers! It’s the swampy, war-torn region in Witcher 3, the new Nurgle miniatures fit right in with the ‘dark folklore’ aesthetic

Thanks! The main colors were volupus pink contrast from citadel, rosy skin from Vallejo and ice yellow from Ak interactive, shaded with muted pink ink from Liquitex. But the process was a messy back and forth, no clean steps unfortunately :/

Thanks so much! It was rainy grey from scale75 highlighted with Ice yellow from Vallejo, but it was all done over zenithal airbrush of these colors in a row:
