Cheers guys

I have had to drop a couple as there will be no room on the base, I have gone with the following 5, still need to finish all the horns, and Big Daddy Mac's hat and Pistol Pete's gun

They were good enough just undercoated, bu in full colour they really do come alive!

cant wait to see where you have decided to put the little darlings on the base!

Fantastic!! I love the character you've put into your own sculpting, it's something I feel the Games Workshop has lost over the years, a sense of a humour!!

Frank the Teapot with do in the brook covered in afterbirth, Scot the Itch will go in and around the tree, Pistol Pete will go on the gun carriage or in the the grass, Big Daddy Mac will go on the barrel, and Billy One Ball will go next to the big pile of cannon balls, as in the below picture, excuse my AMAZING photoshop skills



Although I might put Billy One Ball at the base of the tree as though he is trying to throw the cannon ball at the bird in the tree, put Pete on the barrel with Frank next to the barrel as though he is reaching up to pull the trigger after all he has a cheeky grin, which would mean Scot goes in the brook with the afterbirth and big daddy mac goes on the gun carriage.

Humor? What's that then?  There is nothing humourous about my nurglings, I am making myself some friends as I have none and my imaginary one packed up and left a fortnight ago :'(

In all seriousness, I think because I enjoy them and can realise my vison that maybe comes through in what I sculpt and paint whereas GW sculptors, although 100 times better than me, are going through the motions, they are told what they have to do, guess its the difference between hobby and job??  Of course I could be talking utter bobbins :D

Seconded, they do take themselves a bit too seriously now, but enough OT.

Love those nurglings  :-*

I'd go with your second placement suggestion and have a bit of interaction between Pete and Timmy  lol

cheers

Thanks pal.

I would say that those pictures are giving a very good representation of what he looks like to the naked eye showing up the nice contrast on the skin etc which seems to be flatted out in some pictures

Dammit man you have broken more peoples jaws than Mohommed Ali.

What about putting two of your nurglings together? I'm thinking of Pistol Pete and the wee guy that's reaching up. Place him reaching up to pull the trigger on Petes gun?
