Happy new year all.

Had hoped to get my chariots finished in Dec 2020, but they trundled into January.

Now just 5 units left to go: beasts, greater daemon, and another block of 3 plaguebearer horde units
just 5, but some substantial conversion work left, so not a quick 5.

Cheers Dragon,

something a lot simpler this time, greater demon of nurgle. Have wanted to paint this mini for years, maybe bit underwhelming here, but i like the sculpt.

daemon beasts done, the araby war elephant being a christmas present to myself  ;)

Now i just have 9 more stands of plaguebearer hordes to build and convert  to reach 2k (although not a competitive 2k, as beasts + greater demon at 2k is a bit chunky?).

Great stuff. They are a very special army. Top modelling project very well executed.

those are excellent, really strong colours. Do you have any pictures of the pump wagon sculpt pre-paint?

Thanks they painted up nice in the end, it was a slog getting there, could not simply copy the 28mm original - had to adjust for 10mm - here are a few shots of the sculpting, it was all a first time learning process, the troll and shaman my second sculpt.

Absolutely agree, this is first rate work.  I especially love 'the Final Ride' and those daemon beasts are a thing of wonder!
