Smells like Blanche

After years of unsuccessful attempts, I finally managed in the words of my peers, to approach the famous grail of Blanchistu style with this kind of half mechanical half organic mule with a small an creepy cherub on it's back :

It is still very wip on those pics and I am close to get to the final result.
I'm also working on some kind of True Scale Space Marines to add on Inq28... And Nurgle it is of course. A lot of hobbists work with the awesome kit of the putrid blightkings... The day I've planed to buy mines, they were out of store shelves... Hell! too bad, but it remains Gutrot Spume anyway. I then tried to start with. It proved quite difficult to convert because his posture does not allow all the madness without using tons of greenstuff. So I fired, the best I could this sorcerer / psyker Death Guard being finished.





The color photos will be published once the painting is complete.
 Let me know what you think about this.

Thank you for reading.

  1. Absolutely stunning work so far! I especially like the mule (and the cherub on his back is a real creep for sure)! Great blog, looking forward for more!

  2. I´ll echo Steve - the mule is simply insane.
    Insane in a good way that is.

  3. As I've said elsewhere, I think the mule is some of your best work to date! Looking at it makes me thing of a grimdark kind of caravan, crossing the ash wastes of an Imperial world -- you could add an animal herder, some merchants, the mercenaries tasked with keeping the caravan secure...there's a whole warband concept in this! The sky's the limit ;)

  4. Got to agree with everyone else, Fantastic models. The horse is Legend! Never seen anything like it, totally unique.
    The nurgle guy is ace, is it converted, i'm not familiar with the model, but knowing you it has to be! Paint job is cool. Luv it!

    1. Thank you my friend! The nurgle guy just got his head and the right arm converted... but I think he'll change a little... not very happy with the staff
