These are the 'Pestilence' set, sourced from an Ebay seller, but licensed from https://www.myminifactory.com/users/zabavkaworkshop#. The two larger (60mm) bases for the Bloat Drone and Beast of Nurgle are the 'Plague City' set from MTG Terrain on Ebay, but licensed from https://www.myminifactory.com/users/Admiral%20Apocalypse#/. These needed quite a bit of cleaup to remove most of the support marks from the 3d printing process. In hindsight these would have printed better if I had done them myself. {{:blog:miniatures:gw:wh40k:chaos:photos:img20240727171109.jpg?400|}} {{:blog:miniatures:gw:wh40k:chaos:photos:img20240728121643.jpg?400|}} {{:blog:miniatures:gw:wh40k:chaos:photos:img20240728162508.jpg?400|}} Finished 40mm + 60mm bases with added static grass: {{:blog:miniatures:gw:wh40k:chaos:photos:img20240728123728.jpg?600|}} Base Paint Scheme * Primer: Colour Forge Death Rattle Green, drybrush highlights in Vallejo Khaki, Khaki + AK Interactive Off-White, Off-White * Branches: Vallejo Xpress Colour Wasteland Brown, wash with GW Agrax Earthshade * Stone: Vallejo Cold Grey + Black (1:1), drybrush highlights in Cold Grey, Cold Grey + AK Interactive Off-White, wash in watered down GW Agrax Earthshade (1:3) * Flowers: Army Painter Speedpaint Murder Scene, Army Painter Speedpaint Ancient Honey * Tentacles (green): Army Painter Speedpaint Algae Green * Tentacles (red): Army Painter Speedpaint Slaughter Red * Tentacle (purple): Army Painter Speedpaint Murder Scene * Spore mounds: Drybrush in Vallejo Khaki, Vallejo Bone White, AK Interactive Off-White, wash from top to bottom in Army Painter Speedpaint Pallid Bone, Bony Matter then finally GW Agrax Earthshade * Slime pools: Vallejo Camoflage Green + Livery Green (1:1) * Earth: Army Painter Speedpaint Mummified Grime / Desolate Brown, final wash of GW Agrax Earthshade
