Today, I present my latest painted miniatures from my Iron Warriors project. From a Dark Angel traitor to a Daemon prince of Nurgle, this batch of miniatures is probably my best work yet for this project.
First up, someone’s ‘Fallen’ over to Chaos, wearing a really fancy cape!
Whilst he’s definitely not a gene son of the 4th Legion, it begs the question of how and why he joined up with the Nugle tainted warband? Was he running away from the Dark Angels, making a contract with the warband for hire, finding and regrouping with other Fallen or something far darker?
My very own kitbashed Daemon Prince of Nurgle with wings and a long rusty scythe. This model is full of character with the dead Tau suit that’s rusting away by the Daemons essence, a rat scurrying away and a happy Nurgling playing with his own intestines! But the Daemon Prince himself is a sight to behold, the smell not so much….
I’ve been thinking about entering this kitbash Daemon Prince as my first attempt into one of Azazels challenges, but confidence and doubts are bugging me one wether it’s good enough to enter it. If I do, photography would have to be better to show the best of this bloated nightmare.
Possessed that look less like clowns, and more like an opera group.
I couldn’t paint the Chosen for years, I hated the excessive details and the organic growths that looked too Possessed. So I made the unit of five into an actual Possessed unit. Worked pretty! I prefer how the unit looks compared to the OG unit of Possessed (I still have my original Possessed which looks crap), the organic parts on the Chosen sculpt help make kitbashing it more aligned with the daemonic takeover look.
All that’s left now with this project is a unit of Plague marines as my fourth Troop choice. After that I can move on to other projects that I’m working on, unless I have an idea on what I want to add to this project. It’s strange how this project has grown and evolved over the months of painting, I’m quite pleased with how well it’s going up to this point so far.
That’s all from me for today.
Until next time,

Nice! Interesting cloak and I particularly like the worms/tentacles/whatever coming out of the side of the daemon’s head.

Thanks! I didn’t have any putty at the time so I tried to be creative with my kitbashing to hide the gaps.
The bitz box can provide many strange and bizarre mutations to my CSM, I wouldn’t want to know what’s under it’s helmet…..

Yeah, you never know what kind of surprise you’ll get … “Could be something good, could be something bad … I guess we’ll never know!” 🙂

Thanks you! 🙂
The warp can do some strange things to your mind when building a kitbashed miniature, especially if it’s Nurgle themed.
