Maggoth Lord - Base

I have decided to make the base more interesting for this model by making a small waterfall of swampy slime. I bought a large cork (120mm diameter) and have started to cut it into roughly the shape I am after - a small stream that tumbles down into a pond. I have spoken with the guy at the local model shop and intend to get hold of some water effects goop to make convincing water. I also intend to litter the base with Nurglings to add some character. More to come soon hopefully.




Maggoth Lord - W.I.P v2 - Horns / Rider

I found a little bit of time since September to work on this model. As you can see, I have painstakingly painted a gradient onto each horn of both the the Maggoth beast and the rider. I have also worked a lot more washes and drybrushes over the riders skin. There is still a lot of fiddly bits to complete such as all the boils/spots on the beast as well as all the details around its burst stomach. The rider also needs a lot more detail done to all armour/cloth/weapon. Fingers crossed I can get this done by Feb 27th.

                                     

Update

It's been a while since I last updated because I was busy moving house. However, now that the dust has settled I should hopefully find more time for painting. I also now have a better dedicated painting area with improved lighting so I can paint in the evenings after work.

I recently went to buy some more paints and was handed this flyer for a painting competition and am seriously considering entering my Maggoth Lord model. This will mean adding all the finishing touches and building / completing the base within one month (the last hand in date is exactly a month today). I am hoping that this will give me some motivation to finish my first large model.

Blightking - Model 1 - Work in progress

This one is coming along fairly nicely. Just need to do the boils on the skin and refine the smallest details, teeth, stitches, etc. Then all that is needed is the base. 



Maggoth Lord - W.I.P v1 - Beast body / Basecoat

The maggoth beast skin is well under way with all base, wash and dry brushing done. Only the fine detail to do to finish the skin. The horns are only base coated at the moment and will need a fair bit of work. Overall pretty happy with the results so far.





The Nurgle Lord is only partly base coated at the moment and has a long way to go before completion.



Knights - Model 1 - Under coat

The under coat and base colour for the skin, no much else has been done yet.





Marauder - Model 1 - Under coat

The under coat and base colour for the skin, no much else has been done yet.
