Chosen Warrior Update 2

This is the second update of my conversion of 40k Nurgle Marines and Terminators into the Old World and the 9th Age.  The first instalment is here.

Unlike most times where I simply rank up my minis and do what comes to mind, I decided to do a test miniature.

I mostly followed the nurgle paint scheme in the 40k conquest using the following colours over a tamiya dark green base coat.

Armour: Death guard green, Agrax earthshade and then back to death guard green for highlights.
Weapons and chain mail: leadbelcher and agrax shade leadbelcher again for highlights.
Horns: rakarth flesh, skull white and agrax shade. Highlight with skull white.
Tentacles: bug man glow, tentacle pink, drucii violet wash.
Armour trim: retributor armour and agrax wash with a final highlight with retributor and a tiny bit of mithril silver from Vallejo.

As you can see most sections use the agrax shade which means painting is pretty speedy before highlights.

This is the final product which I am extremely happy with.



To fit it with my existing Chaos warriors of the Dark Gods minis, the bases will be sanded with brown  paint and a little flock.

Below is also the next five bros who have been washed and are now basically ready for the highlights  and finishing touches.

The champion is the one without the helmet and his skin is is similar to the horns paint scheme with a bit of pale flesh from Vallejo thrown in.


Finally, this is my first terminator I have converted into a Forsworn for the 9th Age. They are based on the 40 x 40 so the larger mini fits on well. The storm bolter was removed and replaced with a sword from the plastic ogre bull sprue.
