Guys, here is a super stupid question: how could I incorporate my Heresy toads

http://heresyminiatures.com/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=49

into my 40k Nurgle army? I just love these models, I have 3 of them. They are not big at all, they are like 1 cm tall.

How about a team of toads pulling a war-sleigh ridden by a Champion of Nurgle?

Grey hunter sargeant. The frost sword is painted patchy on purpose: I wanted a *snow* sword

I really like this guy: a cool sculpt with a well chosen colour scheme.  Is it a Mordheim figure? 

Its perfect for use as an Inquisitor.

No, he is a Warhammer Fantasy "Empire Witch Hunter"

Cool, thanks.  The model was reminding me of the sort of Don Quixote looking Mordheim "Freelance Knight" for some reason.

That Witch Hunter is a perfect Ordo Hereticus type.  Im looking forward to seeing his retinue.

I'm very much aware that LAF is not particularly 40k-friendly, because of understandable reasons (GW acting like corporate a-holes, etc.), but it IS my favorite wargaming related message board, so what am I supposed to do, should I not post here these pics of my newly painted 40k figures - a game I have yet to play even once!

Don't worry, for a lot of us it's frustration with GW - we LOVE the minis.

Yours are brilliant - the inquisitor is my favourite, but the Wolfguard really feel like barbarians in space, and you've got the rotting, diseased Nurgle look captured perfectly.

crappy mobile photo of some WIP wolf guard conversions (the left guy still needs his green stuff fur cloak to look extra barbarian.)

Unfortunately my dslr camera was not available for these photos below, so I had to use my crappy point-and-shoot. They did not turn out to be too bad, but they are not satisfactory either.

First up is my Lone Wolf. My painting style is kinda patchy, painterly to begin with, and the shitty camera somehow manages to over emphasise that. In real life the Lone WOlf is not this messy, but never the less, he is dirty and bloody, because he is the last remaining member of a squad snuffed out long ago. He is disturbed, and psychotic - also, his colors are somewhat darker than my usual wolves. This is my way of accentuating that he is from an even earlier time, than they are (because my main wolves are very 13th chapter-ish)



And, as a sort-of-a-detour, here are my freshly finished figures for a planned DUngeon skirmish game, that will use the Cavern Crawl-rules.
