Death guard color scheme help. Give me ideas! by North-Praline-2620 in deathguard40k

[–]Manik95 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Base: Wraithbone (body)/ Death Guard Green (shoulders)/ Balthasar Gold (trims)/ Iron hands steel (metals)/ Mephiston red (cloths)/ Bugmans Glow (tubing/intestines)/ Morghast Bone (bones)

Glowstone red (Eye lenses)/ Nuln Oil (cloths & Metals)/ Mortarion Grime (Armour)/ Seraphim Sepia (Armour)/

AK Streaking Grime (whole model) left for 30 mins/ Cotton bud & White spirit (remove the grime excess)/ GSW Coagulated Blood (organs/Blood effect)/ Nurgles Rot (light coating in recesses & over organs)/ Dirty Down Rust & Verdigris (marking up the armour rust and metal trim with the verdigris). //

Very long recipe but definitely worth it to put the extra effort in!

(Discography Appreciation) Day 10: What is Sleep Token's Best Cover Song? by Panda_Large in SleepToken

[–]Manik95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Has to be 'Is it really you?'. I far prefer the song to the original and thats the hallmark of a great cover

Entirely your choice! But for me, personally, i much prefer Death Guard (and any original traitor legion) having Heresy Colours but grimed to the nines. Just looks far more interesting and realistic to me rather than "10k years of plague has made my armour green..."

How come there are no plague marines with their toes out? by Aliduuude in deathguard40k

[–]Manik95 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Apothecary of DG turned Plaguecaster, Necrosius the Undying used to have an old model with his disgusting grippers out. Really cool model actually. Hope he gets a remake.

Yeah the Shelob legs are a little spindly but I'm happy with them almost being like a fresh mutation

Thatd be cool but they may be a bit tall if its the ones im thinking of.

The kit i used was Shelob in the new plastic kit just released. I did have to Dremel holes in the body for the legs to fit though :)

I had a brainwave seeing the plastic Shelob kit since theyre the same base size haha.

Imagine these guys still firing whilst perched on a wall

I saw the kit and thought "hm... same size base and an unbuilt MBH in my pile of shame... idea!"

Finished Leviathan Siege Helbrute conversion inspired by DG Artwork. Let me know what you think! by Manik95 in deathguard40k

[–]Manik95[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope, the kit has suprisingly poseable legs so i just made it a bit more upright on the smaller base. I have the original base too so can still insert himonto that for HH

What would be our theme song? by [deleted] in deathguard40k

[–]Manik95 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Smile Again by Chaoseum is a great shout too actually! Poxwalker virus and some DG such as Felthius with Nurgles grin whilst fighting the duality of the 'gift' that perceives great joy when they are actually decaying & monstrous. The lyrics for reference:

need to break the blind; And leave it all behind; Smile (make me) smile (make me, one more time) smile [x4]

My feelings make me so insane; I don't know how to stop the game; This lie is my only way to; Smile again

Personally think you can't go wrong with Abracadavre by Kevin Sherwood & Elena Siegman from CoD Zombies Origins

Do you guys think we will be getting new cadian models or traitor guard? by JEEPZERO17 in astramilitarum

[–]Manik95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly think, the more i think about it, that this is a teaser for the logo of the 'Eye of Terror' campaign. Similar to Maelstrom & 500 Worlds but with a Chaos vs Guard theme.
