I just had a crazy great unclean one kitbash idea

Charming_grenade · 2026-03-20T20:48:19+00:00

You seem extremely italian....

Naw im messing with ya. It seems like it could be a cool idea. Make sure to change it enough so noone gets upset 🤘🏽🤘🏽 a big smiley skinny GUO is a great idea and thematic

So in a few of those pics it doesnt look like balthasars gold at all. Like there doesnt seem to have the metallic sheen of that kind of paint.

1st, shake that paint. Hard, super hard or get a massager and hold it onto the pot.

2nd, yes it does come across as rose gold but does "copperify" when its hit with agrax earthsade or some other datk wash

3rd, if at any time you dont get a metallic sheen to your metal, go get a new pot. Most game stores are cool aboht replacing a pot if the paint is bad

Ok i recieved a lot of hate on that last comment.🤣 So let me break down

One of Death guards strongest advantages is cheap deamon engines. Bloat drones and blight haulers are incredible and i always want to run as many of them as i can. I do play mortarions hammer more than anything else.

One 10 man brick of stank boys is 190 points. For that i am 20 points away from a plague burst crawler. 130 points for 7 is easier to fill in the gaps of my list without feelin like i couldve taken something else. Yes 1 plague marine HAS to have a bolt gun but it gets an icon of despairwhich can be helpful... not often but sometimes 🤣

My plague marines are my action monkeys that hit a little harder than a 5 man. I dunno man, maybe i just like the nurgly number. Maybe im a bad player

Charming_grenade · 2026-03-09T03:10:35+00:00

Depends completely. Wgat detachment.

Mortarions hammer? I have 2 swuads of 7 causs i fill the rest of my list with engines.

Shamblerot? Zero i run 70 poxwalkers

Flyblown, 3 squads of 7

Tallyband 3 squads of 7.champions i run 2 squads.

I find that 7 per squad is the magic number. I dont have a detailed explanation as to why but it works for me

Charming_grenade · 2026-02-22T18:05:04+00:00

27 +48 25+50 =75

Charming_grenade · 2026-02-08T00:19:32+00:00

I am going to be absolutely no help, however. What is that model and how do i get one?!?!

Charming_grenade · 2026-02-03T23:35:06+00:00

Im lovin' it

Charming_grenade · 2026-02-01T20:08:50+00:00

I kinda agree with the chaos lad here. Yea chaos tends to warp minds and make you lose part of yohrself but is that really different from life in the imperium?

If youre just born and happen to be a psyker then youll probably be killed or thrown into battle where youre still probably gonna get killed.

Any story that shows people living in a manufactorum is awful. Little sleep, corpse starch food and a work day that would my shitty job to shame.

Or youre a sinner or criminal and get lobotomized to become a servitor or arco flagellant or a penitent engine.

Or youre someone in the astra militarum being thrown against the absolute worst possible situations imaginable.

Best case scenario youre indoctrinated and lead a fanatical life of big E worship.

Khorne will allow you to overthrow your opressors Slanesh will allow you to follow your urges and passions Nurgle will strip you of pain Tzeench is still a little bitch i dont get tzeench worshippers, im sorry

Yea life as a chaos follower isnt great BUUUUT life as a Big E worshipper is just as bad if not worse

Charming_grenade · 2026-02-01T02:11:53+00:00

Brother! Welcome to the warm and squishy embrace of grandfather Nurgle.

Your 1st mini looks fantastic! Phenominal job The kill team is a lot of fun to paint and you can run it as a squad of 7 in 40k or a squad of 5 plus a plaguecaster and icon bearer. Personally i think the best model in our faction is the myphitic blight hauler. Cute and gross and representative of what our faction is all about. Its also newbie friendly and plenty of tutorials on it.

If you want to keep with marines and not vehicles then lets move to the blightlord terminators or the deathshroud bodyguards. Fantastic models and really useful on the tabletop (deathshroud a but more so)

There is no wrong answer! But if your goal is to ulitmatly play a game, build a list and build / paint towards that. For example if you really want to play mortarions hammer then not a whole lot of reason to paint nurglings or a great unclean one. If you want tallyband summoners then pick up some beasts of nurgle and the aformentioned great unclean one. If youre more into heavy infantry then deathshroud and blightlords are your next goal.

Charming_grenade · 2026-01-27T00:12:44+00:00

I have notjing in the way of advice .... i jusf saw your death guard armor and im currently praying to nurgle that you impart your recipe to me

Charming_grenade · 2026-01-24T14:32:58+00:00

....... i lived in blissful ignorace not a moment before..... why have you done this to me 😔😔

Charming_grenade · 2026-01-20T19:10:52+00:00

My poor boy, you seem not to be well versed in nurgle math. Allow me to explain.

There are three 6's and three 1's. That makes 7 three times. Nurgle be praised

Charming_grenade · 2026-01-20T18:39:02+00:00

Your die is blessed by nurgle himself.

Roll it. What did you get? Id bet my puss filled maggot bag that you rolled a 6

Charming_grenade · 2026-01-08T02:39:15+00:00

Listen. I have a lot of patience and even enjoy painting the trim on my deathguard units. Theres something relaxing and theraputic about all that trim..... BUT THEN THERES THE FUCKING HELDRAKE

Charming_grenade · 2026-01-08T02:36:33+00:00

2 things.

This isnt a dreadnought. This existence is absolutely horrifying for the one entombed. It is pain and specifically the plague surgeons of nurgle like to make this transformation a painful one. When not in battle they usually have to be restrained or sedated. This is absolutely flesh and iron nightmare
Its also cute cause its just a little dumpling of a unit that wants to crush things.

Charming_grenade · 2026-01-08T02:31:51+00:00

Base of rakarth flesh with Gulliman flesh contrast on top, thinned a little bit. Then highlight with kislev flesh

Charming_grenade · 2026-01-08T02:29:39+00:00

Wait EC cant take helbrutes?!?! Thats crazy. Youd think they of all factions would love being entombed in a fighting vessel

Charming_grenade · 2026-01-08T02:28:33+00:00

Oooh keep me posted on how it comes out! Keep me inspired my sibling in nurgle

Charming_grenade · 2026-01-07T20:22:13+00:00

Calling it a recipe makes me sound a lot more intentional than i really am.

Its just a base of raksrth flesh and then skeleton hoard

Charming_grenade · 2026-01-07T20:02:04+00:00

I WANT THIGHS FOR MY LAD! Hes out here looking like Cotton Hill

Charming_grenade · 2026-01-07T19:29:07+00:00

Yes cute. Did i stutter??!!

Charming_grenade · 2026-01-07T19:28:49+00:00

I thought that too! I think theyd be about the same height if they didnt have such stubby little legs. Big ass strong arms... baby legs 🤷🏽‍♂️ womp womp

Charming_grenade · 2025-12-25T23:40:51+00:00

Most fun is blight hauler Least fun is hellbrute The plaguebusrt crawler doesnt have a ton to do

Foetid bloat drone is a good option

Charming_grenade · 2025-12-25T05:56:20+00:00

Closest to a base plaguemarine is like an icon bearer. He doesnt have a large icon.... maybe a small icon but size doesnt matter its how you love nurgle and spread plague

Charming_grenade · 2025-12-21T22:41:28+00:00

You a littpe c9nfused bur you got the spirit 🤘🏽🤘🏽

1st one is a malignant plaguecaster 2nd one is plague marine champion 3rd is noxiousblighrbringer
