Rust, Rot, and Ruin: Painting a Nurgle Chaos Warlord Titan

[@Wraithkindafreaky]

this guy is crazy talented but talks like he hasnt made something awe inspiring love to see it

[@DireDiceTabletop]

Thanks for your kind comment Wraith, just out here trying to do what I can!

[@Audios2010]

It’s hideous, repulsive, disgusting, it’s… it’s.. absolutely perfect

[@DireDiceTabletop]

What my missus said when she first saw me

[@misfitoffools]

The titan looks stunning so far. Fantastic work and also a fantastic video. You deserve a much wider audience for this kind of high value productions. I can only hope Papa Nurgle, or maybe just the YT-algorithm (which is not such a big difference) will grant you their blessing. I´m really looking forward to see the final titan in all it´s glory and gory decay. Thank you for making such a timeconsuming journey for us viewers.

[@DireDiceTabletop]

Thanks so much dude. Working away in the background so more to come shortly 😁

[@CS783]

I really like the idea of there being rust on the trim. I like the idea of the nurgle flesh rotting the metal away and replacing it with the metal, slowly converting is to a fleshy giant. This is a really titan! Look forward to seeing the end result!

[@DireDiceTabletop]

Love that idea man! Can't wait to deliver the end result 😁

[@Paranormal-Stupidity]

That looks unbelievably good. I wish I had these skills. I also wish I had a warlord titan. Maybe one day. I can't wait to see how this one looks when you finish it. Thanks for sharing!!

[@DireDiceTabletop]

Hey Paranormal! 👋 Thanks for your comment 😊

[@drazenbristow4962]

This inspired me to pick up my Death Gaurd project again. Thank you and you've done a stunning job

[@DireDiceTabletop]

Nurgle calls my rotting brother....

[@rottendeadite]

Wow, I really wasn't sure how that sculpt was going to look, but you've really knocked it out of the park. Fantastic job!

[@DireDiceTabletop]

Thanks man! I too have no idea how this was gonna look 🤣

[@Roadflare1833]

I don't play the table top, but man, I love watching these pieces come to life. Nicely done.

[@andreasekelund8648]

thats looks great, and you really made the head i sculpted look really good

[@DireDiceTabletop]

I'm in awe of your work mate, you've done such an excellent job on it! It's an honour to have you see what I've done with it, hopefully I won't disappoint in the end!

[@HappyShat]

@@DireDiceTabletop did you make all of it? is it possible to get the stl files please my good sir!

[@JohannanasTheBrave]

I'm good friends with the guy who modelled the head that you used. Love the paint job!

[@DireDiceTabletop]

Man that's awesome, he's done such a sick job!!

[@BrunoEars]

Astonishing, amazing, incredible, i don't know enough words to describe it

[@olibman365]

love this, I'm getting into death guard soon so this has been perfect for flesh, decay, oozing, degrees of rawness, and bones.

[@DireDiceTabletop]

Grandfather is pleased with you

[@Sandmann1193]

That colourscheme absolutely smashes. I never even thought about using those colors in combination and it looks so damn realistic. Luckily I got a knight tyrant where I wasn't sure which colors I wanted so now I will have to gore him up and use that scheme.

[@DireDiceTabletop]

Thanks Sandman! Make sure you check out the awesome tutorial by Dark Future Games, link in the description. Good luck with your Knight 😊

[@Abyssinian654]

Hey, I'm LOVING this Titan video series so far!! You were talking about what you were wondering about doing for the armor trim? An idea that came to me,... 1. Basing in a dark black, possible slightly glossy (something like an "Ivory Black," or "Mars Black") 2. Dry brushing an Antique Copper/Balthazar Gold to give an aged Brass look 3. Washing with a dark, brownish wash like Agrax Earthshade 4. Stippling on some of that AK Interactive's "Dirty Down Rust" in the recesses to get that nasty, built-up grime effect 5. I forget the company's name (possibly another AK interactive product), use that "Patina" rust effect around the rivets for a "rusted Copper/Bronze" effect. Just an idea I had, to suggest for the armor trim. Can't wait to see the finished product!! :)

[@DireDiceTabletop]

Saved this! Epic idea and thanks for the detailed breakdown 😁

[@Abyssinian654]

@@DireDiceTabletop Np, glad to offer a suggestion. 😃 I often use steps 1-3, for some Chaos Space Marines I've been working on for Xmas presents for some friends. It's amazing for the trim, and then a highlight with the non-Agrax'd Antique Copper/Balth Gold. It makes them look like they've really been fighting in "The Long War"

[@Sandesper]

Making nurgle proud... Amazing job so far, cant wait for the finished titan

[@nicholasvinkler1635]

I don't have words for this!!!! Pappy's rot has my tongue

[@MomentosHistórico]

You're really talented. Congratulations!

[@cryfasytighega5074]

that paint job is revolting, excellent work! I wish the reaver titan got this much love from the creative community.

[@monikamorningstarshadlo4129]

Honestly, from watching a single video, I can see why they maybe wouldn’t want to

[@michaelsimmons9296]

Oh it's beautiful!!!! The maggots! The torn rotten flesh! The root

awesome work!!! your series inspired me to print my own warlord 🤘

Do you know if he still sells the all for armour panel? The original one on cult is taken off

[@TheTyranidHiveMind]

This hits some primal fear of mine and I hate it. Excellent work!

[@thesarkive7746]

Looks awesome. I didnt know they had large models for Nurgle. Something about the plague faction is just so cool

[@braverzero3709]

This is so epic. Incredible!! Great work. Super inspiring.

[@DireDiceTabletop]

Thank you 😊

fantastic, what an amazing job. love those coffee stained teeth. thumbs up

[@pizzalord3n]

This is just fantastic.... Wow

[@John-Sneed]

That's literally nemesis from RE-3 and I'm all here for it

[@Galejro]

I wonder why nobody figured a nurgle army painted only in rust. It's always green with yellow pustules, but nobody really considers how much nurgle loves rust and how clean polished shiny metal or fresh paintwork is actually an affront to him. Imagine a titan with literal stalactites of rust forming downwards, pieces of plating peeling off as a titan is in constant state of falling apart. Vines of growth and gardens of fungi on the top cathedral and rotfly brooding hives dangling where imperial banners would have.

[@Mumpfoon]

Amazing!! Love this. Will you be throwing on any nurglings on the model? Would be cool to see a few hanging off of it

[@DireDiceTabletop]

Well now.. I think you may be right

[@Bluecho4]

Horrid. Absolutely horrid. I love it.

[@St1nk3yFing3r]

Man this looks so sick. Pun intended.

[@crimsonstride5457]

Great to have you here 🫡

[@WoWhunter007]

Looks awesome!

[@diyfireking]

How awesome 😍😍

[@lukemockeridge7899]

That would look good with a dark cool blue green trim. It would ne a nice colour contrast against all the warm tones of the flesh

[@DireDiceTabletop]

Yooo.... That needs to get tested!

[@EganCreator]

The model is great.

[@sg_7178]

the yellow really accentuate the nurgle vibe

[@kaimen2111]

Superb

[@trilliongold]

The trim should be a mix of plague marine green, and a really rustic earthy gold I think. The Titan goes into battle with the space marines, so this should go into battle with the plague marines.

[@DireDiceTabletop]

Few people have sad similar things, so I think you may be right my man!

[@josephfuentes2385]

cant wait for part 2

[@P.CL33T]

Sick

[@GhostSniper-k2m]

sick!!!!! damn i want a copy of that!!!!!

[@christopherbonner4454]

I was going to ask if this was 3d printed, until I noticed the tell tell signs. Other than that, this is an excellent project. Will probably try something similar in the future.

[@DireDiceTabletop]

Would like to see what you do!

[@SpeedDemonGoFast]

I’m going to do NMM on the armor trim of my titan when I get to the trim

[@DireDiceTabletop]

That'll be epic! I think I'd go insane doing NNM on this scale 😂

[@OntarioGuy430]

11:29 Ha-ha - I kept thinking that armour trim looks super cool - You hadn't even painted it yet

[@DireDiceTabletop]

Happy little accidents, Bob Ross style 😂

[@KeroHiro-Lil]

that test pieces reminds me of Judge Death

[@DireDiceTabletop]

Can't believe I didn't see that, certainly can't unsee it now! 😂

[@CAWCAWCAWCAWCAWCAWCAWCAWCAWCAW]

Fantastic work! Dont know if this was already the plan for part 2, but thoughts on adding some gloss varnish to the open wounds/various mouths across the model? On one hand I think it'd really accentuate that feeling of unsettling moisture/wetness that just feels right for something like corrupted or infested fleshy armor panels, but admittedly I somewhat worry about gloss looking off for something at the scale of a warlord titan. Something about matte just does a better job of selling colossal scales be it 40k or modern armor. Hopefully there's some balance of the two that'd let you have the best of both worlds!

[@DireDiceTabletop]

Hell yeah brother, this will certainly be done! I know what you mean about the gloss look - it'll be kept to a minimum

[@senpairostudios]

Awesome job so far! Where did you get the nurgle bits?

Legio Mortis Warlord anyone? After all, Mortis did eventually become Nurgle focused, I think even Dies Irae was Nurgle-infested by the time of its destruction during the 13th Black Crusade.

[@Delta_Ol]

Very nice pannels, but what about other parts? Beneath armor Warlord is clean as factory new.

[@DazedBobcat]

PLEEEASE I need this. I’m building an army for display and I need this. Where did you get it I wanna buy one

[@senpairostudios]

Would love to get the nurlge parts myself too

[@WarhammerWings]

A Plaguelord class....

[@HereticalKitsune]

Absolutely disgusting! Well done!

[@mighty8357]

I would paint the trim in a dark green tone like death guard green. The model itself is evidently based on nurgle but the amount of pink gives me too much of a slaaneshi vibe

[@DireDiceTabletop]

The pink will be much more muted by the end result 😊

[@gwayawan]

is this a FW model modified? or 3D printing? Great result!

[@sirgeeksalot101]

followed this for a poxwalker and it looks pretty dang awesome/disgusting thinking of doing another one but replacing the red base with a green for a more diseased look.

[@DualPhantomz]

Amazing build process! Does anyone know where I can grab those STL for the panels? Trying to make offering of a warlord titan to nurgle. PM me please!

[@noideawhoiam4440]

This is incredible, are the armour panels for sale somewhere? Cause I need some for my own warlord titan

[@ezikalivingston5529]

im a lil suprised its just nurgle? i assumed all 4 gods would be included in the scheme, but i guess that'd be a little harder

[@DireDiceTabletop]

Oh it'll be more than just a Nurgle Warlord by the end of it... 😈

First time viewer. The paint job is very cool so far, but the kit itself makes me distracted from your work. What is the point of making a custom chaos titan kit if the sculptor is gonna leave something as painfully obvious as the missile launchers, void shield carapaces and toes untouched... smh...

Keep an eye out for a future video where this will get corrected... I don't think you'll be disappointed 😉
