Stupefy!
Just a very quick post - it's been my eldest daughter's birthday this week, and her chosen theme for the year is Harry Potter.

Purge and Unpurify
One gap for the Death Guard is a lack of long-range firepower. So the obvious solution was to sort out a supporting detachment of Havocs and, when Shadowspear dropped, Obliterators and a Venomcrawler seemed like a good way to complete a Spearhead Detachment.
I wanted to keep an entirely Nurgle-aligned army so, despite the temptation of Slaaneshi shooting-twice stratagems, I chose to paint these guys up as The Purge (partly because their trait of rerolling hits once a target has been wounded is pretty good too).

Poxy Music: the rest of the Second Law warband
I bought the Start Collecting Nurgle Daemons set shortly after playing Kraken on Skype last summer, but I've not got round to painting them apart from this Poxbringer however, who I've used a couple of times to lead an Outrider detachment of Furies. His skin is Zandri Dust with washes of Nuln Oil, Agrax Earthshade and Seraphim Sepia (because that works so well on my Plague Marines). Horns, claws and innards are Rakarth Flesh with the same washes (the insides then get Carroburg Crimson). I then dabbed on small amounts of Red Ink to show open wounds.

Bloaty McBloatdrone and friends
Next up, some of my favourite models (and, perhaps, some of Stylus and Kasfunatu's least favourites due to their disgusting resilience).

Dead Physicists Society: Death Guard characters
Next on my list to show you are the characters in the Second Law warband, starting with a Biologus Putrifier. He's usually my warlord so that the Daemon Prince can fly forwards and not worry about giving up Slay the Warlord. I usually give him the Arch Contaminator trait to maximise the effects of the Plague Marine squad acting as his bodyguard and the Foul Blightspawn who generally runs alongside him. I affectionately call him Maxwell.

A Plague Marine on both your houses
Stylus has been bugging me for a while to get some pics of my Death Guard up. I painted some of these nearly a year ago and finished most in time for Woffboot in May, but I've only just got round to taking some pics with some decent lighting, so here they are.
Starting off with a basic Plague Marine champion:
