Blood Bowl Nurgle Plague Doctor - WIP

Usually, I refrain from posting similar things two weeks in a row (WIP staff for Blood Bowl again!), but I had this guy laying around almost finished for a very long time now and in the time of the current pandemic, there was no better time to finish him and post him - a Plague Doctor!

He serves basically the same function as an apothecary for Nurgle teams, allowing to re-roll a Regeneration roll, giving some extra protection to the players one would want to keep alive/in the game. Unfortunately, he cannot be rostered and needs to be bought as an inducement. Still, I hope he will help the Putrid Punters sometimes!

The base model used for this was an old Nurgle Sorcerer. While removing his face and giving him a beaky bask was easy, I wasn't sure what to do with his staff - that's good for a wizard, but not really for a doctor! In the end, I decided to turn it into a sign - on which I will later paint a red cross or something like 'DOCTOR IS IN'. Then, because he still wasn't very medical, I gave him a bigger base and decided to litter it with some extras to make it more convincing. The first one was a doctor bag - which, fitting for a nurgly practitioner, is filled with worms, body parts and similar fun. The second one was a nurse - because every doctor needs one - happy Nurgling is working here in that role. I gave him a nurse's hat and a syringe - now they are a team ready to help!

    1. Dzięki! Mam nadzieję, że jak skończę go malować to już nie będzie tak bardzo na czasie...

  2. Mi tam "wtórność" kategorii wpisu nie przeszkadza w najmniejszym stopniu. Glutomacki na odwrocie tablicy wyszły ekstra. Nie mogę się doczekać malowania - szczególnie jestem ciekaw torby lekarskiej i pielęgniareczki ze strzykawą.

    1. Wielkie dzięki! Glutomacki to akurat największa łatwizna całego modelu - liquid greenstuff wymieszany z błyszczącym lakierem i napaciany przypadkowo ;)

    2. Mam z Liquid Green Stuffem przykre doświadczenia - nie łatał szczelin na łączeniach (na co miałem wielką nadzieję) i szybko po zakupie mi zakrzepł niemal nie użyty, ale może trzeba by mu w takim razie dać kolejną szansę.

    3. Bo oni go źle reklamują, do łatania dziur nie nadaje się ani trochę, ale za to przecudnie tworzy rozliczne, brudne, chropowate faktury. Poza tym gluty jak tu, albo pryszcze - nie brałbym się za nurglowanie bez Liquid Green stuffu!
