Thanks deacon! I have to finish as much of this cult as I can before your hordes of loveliness come rambling around the corner :-)

OK, so no progress on the minis, instead I have bought and assembled a nifty polish thing!

They are called Hobbyzone. Good stuff and quick too!

* I bought this one: http://www.hobbyzone.pl/en/18-professio ... ation.html
Note that you can mix paintsizes. I took one narrow length for "Vallejo" and two for GW. Mig-pigments fit the GW compartment nicely. Tell them what you want after you order. Oh, and be careful when bending the little pieces...

Latest updates from the sulphur wastes. Some Terrain. Used to be winter themed. Now not so much. Some finishing touches could be applied, but I think they are mostly good enough for gaming.

Some experiments with Vallejo still water. Not a happy camper. I think I should have done some simpler stuff first to understand the limitations of the stuff. Note the "creep" along the hoses going into the tank. I am not sure any other resin water solution would have been better, though. Good thing its a Nurgle cult. Sort of fits the theme anyway. Being slimy.

Now the poor misguided cultists. While i like the GW cultist, too many with that rather extreme pose look strange. Cutting them in half and mixing them with catachans adds variety.

A first try at a demagogue/arch heretic group and Big Mutants. Slightly converted very nice minis from the exodus wars range acts as big muties.

Some well needed AA. I wanted these to look like they were a definite lesser and more PDF design than the standard Hydra. Counts as...

Good conversions, love the use of EW bits.

Thanks! Feeling rather "IKEA" about it actually. Applying the scalpel and dremel to the infantry reminds me of the extreme advantage of plastic miniatures for conversion work.

I am with you all the way. My major beef with the current Cultists is the very Slaanesh/Tzeentch feel of them. That makes them very unsuitable for both Khorne and Nurgle armies. Conversions for the win, and as you say, good thing they are plastic.

Fredmans, you have a point, but I think they work decently as topless Clan-guys of any creed with the right paintjob.
