We here at Wicked Foundations deeply desire to see your Nurgle prince... on the Blood Bowl field. We suspect it would be an ideal catcher.

Love the innovation in creating your own Nurgle Demon Prince. Looks very cool. Great job!

[@drier_cola]

I think it’s fine u transformed him, he looks great and would fit in either Warhammer or DnD so I felt like u did a great job man

[@akbarrmd7714]

It can be the BBEG or the patron of the Warlock.

[@AwkwardlySatisfying]

This is a great advertisement for them because a lot of us get minis when we're inspired by them!

[@wickedfoundations2281]

We agree!

[@Wildonion1]

This is hardly a ruined model. If anything, you have proven its versatility! Certainly puts my old demon princes to shame.

[@ubermoose5694]

I've got to say, you made choices I don't think I would have, but watching you just go nuts with an idea was awesome. It definitely fit the esthetic you were going for.

[@hillmath9059]

I love how you inspire me to look at other models and think "How can I make this one fit into my ____" Some of the GW minis are just so complex that Im a bit turned off on the ones I want for my team. But I could look at other minis and think how to make them fit. Thanks for the inspiration!

[@CAMSLAYER13]

Let's face it, people will rarely look at your model with as much detail as you. If you don't hit all the details no one's going to complain. You can always come back to them as your skills grow.

[@WillMontgomery85]

My favorite part of miniature games is converting models to what I need. I especially like models that no one else has :) This model looks slick.

[@LeoNelBuilds]

In the world of scale modeling, we call this "customizing" or even "kit bashing"... it's when you take a model kit and modify it to fit your needs... if I was the manufacturer, this would make me happy! Turned out super sick!

[@wickedfoundations2281]

We are DELIGHTED!

[@clonetf141]

In warhammer we call this converting, kit bashing is using basic kits and combining them. Converting is adding cutting and slicing all kind of things and turning it into a mini. Ive seen scale modeling and id say this is definetly diffrent from one another

[@DaedricFaZe]

This is actually called transforming. Technically he only used one kit and and just added to it. Kit bashing implies you use to kits and bash them.

[@MrStatistx]

@@DaedricFaZe I also know this as conversion, though I guess the borders are pretty fluid, cause it's also conversion if you buy third party bits

[@TheRunesmythe]

"Thus it was that Tuberculox the Foetid was summoned to be a scourge on this land! May his feculent miasma spread far and wide, bringing to the great and small both all the various blessings of Grandfather Nurgle!" Welcome to the madness that is converting models; once you start down this dark path, forever with it dominate your destiny. He came out looking pretty awesome despite any perceived hiccups!

[@Miscast]

Fantastic stuff! Looks brilliant

while being used for 40k i can see it easily fitting into a dnd setting ! great job

[@Strkr3]

Like a swamp hag! Put her next to your hag house! The transformation of the old witch in the forest/swamp preying on villagers and adventurers! Lol. Nice job converting regardless. Works for both RPGs!

[@jacktweddle1633]

I meant to say this on the last video, but I love the Blanchitsu/Grimdark stuff you're doing! It seems so much more fitting to me rather than the super clean modelling done in GW. Cant wait for more!

[@sgtmajclutch1619]

Can't wait to get my set from the Kickstarter, yours and miniacs videos on the dional beast definitely sold it for me

[@LyonHart1313]

You seemed to really enjoy the creative process shown in this video. You also seemed to learn a lot. That’s what it is all about. Happy to see the enthusiasm and smiles from you.

[@tokenfilipino]

Ain’t nothing wrong with customizing a mini to fit your needs! I’m doing one now, changing an iron golem into a Warforged juggernaut. I’m happy you got it to work and look forward to seeing the whole army!

[@rosspalmer5171]

You say 'cruel and unusual' but what you have done is converted it into something completely unique. Seriously, well done.

Dude, I am loving this new aesthetic you've been working with. I backed this KS and went with the Striggor module and so this was doubly awesome to get to see this model assembled and painted. Hugely inspiring, thank you!

I like that you don't hide your mistakes/edit them out. I feel more comfortable knowing a new idol of mine does the same mistakes.

[@madtree933]

I think this video does a good job of reinforcing "Once you get the model you can do what you like with it." A sentiment that a lot of miniature painters/gamers struggle with embracing (myself included). Great work.

I love seeing one of these finally painted up!

[@cuhbluhgaming_853]

Alright! Love seeing you building up your army. The model fits perfectly with the Nurgle. :)

[@DarkMatterWorkshop]

Knocking it out of the park mate ! Looks awesome 👌

[@BlackMagicCraftOfficial]

Thanks man!

[@x3tc1]

I think the texture has vastly improved the model (that was already really good from the get go). It really fits the overall stlye. The texture gives it the impression of dried out and crackling skin. Very fitting for a nurgle army. And giving a great contrast to the wet drips/intestines. Awesome work!

Yea, welcome to black magic craft, lol. That's the running theme.

[@Jalin3516]

Yes! Yeeeeeees! Spread the gifts of Nurgle. Honor his generosity! So cool to see you've moved into the 40k space now too dude. The lore of 40k is the most expansive and rich storytelling you'll find. Loads and loads of scope for crafting inspiration. Keep going dude.

[@panzershock441]

Honestly I think the drips coming from the open guts suits nurgle perfectly. Its looks like hes pouring and gushing diseased corruption where ever he walks, right in line with Nurgle's style. Remember, all things nurgle are moist.

[@fin4889]

Such an excellent aesthetic, really excited to see more warhammer from you, sir!

[@bl3993]

I love the emaciated, deathlike look. It's easy to overdo the bloated aspect of Nurgle when the skeletal look is just as cool!

[@techadeptcrafts]

I'm a 40k player since 1988. Haven't made a Nurgle army list in maybe 3 editions - too much in love with my Eldar and Blood Angel armies. Loved the build. Love the model. Surprised you have joined 40k, but not at all surprised you saw a daemon prince trapped in that Striggore. Wicked Foundations shouldn't be too mad. Its exposure and its making me look at the pledge. Mission successful.

[@bitzbox]

Ahhh yeah! He's come out brilliantly. The original miniature is gorgeous but going full blanchitsu/nurgle on him works so well

[@doublepgames4497]

[@derekclawson8958]

good luck on your first game of 40k! hope to hear about it in the next video

That is beautiful. If you get bored of Nurgle in the future watch out for orks, they're a total kitbash/scratch build army.

[@TFMD301]

As a Nurgling, this model looks absolutely gorgeous. I would be honored to play with or against this big gross boy. Keep it up, friend!

[@coltoncroft1133]

That thing is amazing! The texture and flocking make it look like he stepped right out of Grandfather Nurgle's Garden in the warp. Hands down the coolest custom Nurgle prince I've ever seen.

[@elibarker201]

I’m sure this isn’t what they intended you to do with their model lol, but it is one of the best minis you’ve painted so far. It’s super simple but looks amazing. This shows that their models can be used creatively which is always a good thing.

[@ashrog82]

Def has a plant/corrupted nature look. Would be neat to see more of that influence in future Nurgle projects. (Also, Nurgle was absolutely the right pick for someone who enjoys cutomizing their models.)

For a good source of cheap Styrene/Plasticard, pick up some plastic signs from your local DIY store. The ones for garage sales, 'beware of dog', etc. come in a couple of thicknesses and work very well for most uses (especially for terrain building).

[@2H80vids]

If I was a sponsor, I would want to see the *different* ways that modellers would use my products. If everyone assembles/paints/details them the same way, the sponsor doesn't learn *that* much. Although getting the product "out there" is the important bit, potential customers seeing the minis used in various ways has to be a good thing. The more ideas people have for potential uses, the more of them will buy the kits. A kinda long way of saying you certainly didn't "ruin the sponsor's model". Plenty of customers will use the models in different ways - it's all good.👍👌 He's an ugly bugger though.😁 Cheers for now, Dougie.

[@darthbobminiatures]

Definitely agree he was looking better in the brown tones but I think the textures and stuff you added look fantastic! Great work!
