That subtle GWAR reference... there's a reason this is my favorite painting channel. Thank you so much I've learned a ton from you and really enjoying painting my own Maggotkin!
So glad to hear this! Maggotkin is by far my favorite army I've ever painted. More models will follow on this channel for sure! As for GWAR, it's my favorite band! Been a fan since This Toilet Earth way back and even had an opportunity to visit the GWAR Bar when I visited the US
That looks absolutely putrid and disgusting! Well done man. You really captured the essence of this foul beast! Haven't made mine yet but this is very inspiring.
Ah damn, I had hoped for some plague drones to come. I already finished mine, so I don't quite need inspiration for those, but would have been cool to see.
Well I did make video’s for the Plague bearers and the Rot Fly of the Lord of Afflictions. And I’ll get back to Nurgle eventually :) just want to paint some other stuff first
@@ThePutridPainter ahhh the lord of afflictions sits on a fly. Since I play 40k I did not know that and it wasn't visible from the preview. Thanks! I'll check it out straight away :)
Turned out real cool, that skin is a masterpiece in grime ;D. I do have a thought when it comes to the brass though. Any edge damage to a brass or bronze bell would only show fresher brass or bronze, but I assume the silver is a stylistic choice? It may be cool to base coat in a metallic brass or bronze, dab with a dark black brown to simulate the dielectric copper oxide forming, drybrush/edge highlight with the metal base again to simulate relatively fresh damage to the item and add the malachite (green mineral copper oxide degrades to) as the last step. Take that for what it is though, I haven't painted a miniature since the very start of my teens, and I may be coming from the completely wrong mindset :D.
Well truth be told I just went with whatever looks cool. You seem to actually know what it's supposed to look like! I could've do some research but in the end you want something that looks cool from a distance on the tabletop. That's why usually my painting schemes are relatively simple. I don't use glazing methods etc. I am curious what actual aged bronze looks like so maybe I can appropriate the real thing next time!
@@ThePutridPainter I of course meant no ill with it, I really dig the paint job :). Just a thought that came to my head, material layering being one of the few things I have any right flab my mouth about, coming from a blacksmithing background and now doing CG, focusing on material scanning and rendering physics. I think the most important thing in emulating an oxide is understanding that the oxide itself is not a metal. Any transparent thing, like an ink wash, would still allow the metallic sheen (high specular) to shine through whereas real oxides mostly don't. Copper oxide specifically is a dark brownish-black dielectric (non-metal) material, so a really aged brass, bronze, or copper would basically be a splotchy dark brown/blackish color without any metallic sheen at all. The green/turquoise stuff is a further degradation of the oxide and comes later. Any damage to the object would however expose fresh, unoxidized metal, which gives it that nice pop in contrast both in color and roughness ("surface evenness"/"level of polish"/"shine"). And of course, underneath the surface of a solid chunk of brass, there would be more brass. So any damage done to any exposed brass would just reveal more brass, and not change color. But that is of course all real-life behavior, and may or may not translate directly to a painted miniature. Oh, and yes, due to metals having a completely different behavior to non-metals in terms of light reflection (metals would have no diffuse reflections, only high specular reflections and non-metals would have diffuse reflections + low specular reflections) and the paint most likely just being a medium holding actual metallic particles, coating whatever is supposed to be metal in black first would probably be good as a backing to any gap in those particulates to emulate that lack of diffusion. Anyways, hope that is somewhat useful info on some level and that I don't come off as intrusive. Been snooping around these larger Nurgle models on UA-cam for a bit, seeing them all painted up like this gets me a little hyped to go and buy some cast resin and brushes again :).
@@Hostile_Design you didn't come off as intrusive! I'm always looking for constructive feedback on anything I do. Painting is no different so thanks for explaining. I usually take some artistic liberty but painting things realistic is also great. Very appreciated!
Thanks for the compliment! I mainly use cheap synthetic brushes but for details I have a couple of Winsor & Newton 0 and 1 brushes. The head is quite short but I do find there is some more control for me personally
Did you use all the citadel range for that model ? ? 🤣 more seriously : this is awesome : I think it's the best (cleanest ? ;) ) Great Unclean One I saw
Thanks for the compliment! I do believe painting gross things is not an excuse for sloppy paintjobs. And yes I do tend to make use of my collection of paints haha

Papa Nurgle is proud!
That's all the praise I need!
This series was amazing. I’ll be doing an army too. Awesome work. Thank you. 💪🏼
Thank you! I hope you’ll have as much as I had painting these disgusting blobs :D
Love the amount of work you put into your videos. I will be using this video as guide on how to paint the skin of my glottkin. Great video!
Splendid! Let me know how it turns out! I’m also currently painting my Glottkin so you’ll have options!
That looks absolutely putrid and disgusting! Well done man. You really captured the essence of this foul beast! Haven't made mine yet but this is very inspiring.
Thanks for the bit compliment! Exactly what I was going for. Also there is going to be a follow up soon(ish) of the GUO!
I'm in love with this scheme, gonna use it on my GUO
Thanks for this !
You’re welcome! I hope you’re GUO will spread the joy of Nurgle
Stunning job! I am going to try thing of my beasts of nurgle!!!!
Great! Show when you got something! I also have a video how I painted my Beast of Nurgle if you’re interested
Another fantastic tutorial
Thank you!
Awesome Video Sir..really appreciate your work
My pleasure and thanks for the compliment!
Really am happy for you to continue doing more video on nurgle unit
Looks fantastic! I’m going to try this on my GUO.
How did you do the slime of the base?
I actually have a tutorial on that :) ua-cam.com/video/CpJ8VQIScpg/v-deo.html
recently discovered your channel and love how you do your Nurgle daemons. Just curious what primer do you use?
Thank you! In this case I used the Wraithbone primer spray from Citadel
Ah damn, I had hoped for some plague drones to come. I already finished mine, so I don't quite need inspiration for those, but would have been cool to see.

This videos are awesome man. What brushes do you use? They look pretty nice and I could use some new ones
Thanks for the compliment! I mainly use cheap synthetic brushes but for details I have a couple of Winsor & Newton 0 and 1 brushes. The head is quite short but I do find there is some more control for me personally
Amazing video. What have you used to prime/undercoat the miniature. Would love to copy this for my GUO.
Thanks! I primed the model using a Wraithbone spray from Citadel. But any white or bone color would work as the primer for my tutorial
Looks amazing! Did you use hexwraith flame on the nurgling's fire?
Good catch! Yes indeed :)
Looks great man keep it up! 👍
Hypothetically would paint rotigus the same way? Cause i wanna paint a rotigus instead of GUO but i really like your paint scheme
Of course go for it! If I were to put Rotigus or another big daemon in my army I would paint it differently to get some variety
Cool vid👍
Thanks!

Wow
That looks gross! Nice job. Do you use paints other than Citadel? Have you tried the new contrast and shades yet?
Thanks! I mainly use Citadel paints for my projects. Just a personal preference.
I did try some new washes in a new video that is coming soon!
