Angel of Flies
About the value of information, the internet and CMON….. The idea for this little bugger rose up (unbidden) as soon as I saw the Lightning claws on GW´s Chaos General plastic set. Having an affection for all things angelic, I decided to do an Angel oozing decay, trying to combine all traits a Nurgle Lord could offer: skeletal face, bloated belly, pus, slime, flies, the lot. All very archetypical, a Nurgle archangel would be flying on corrupt wings and what better than the wings of an immense fly, I thought. (All the more so as I recently developed hard feelings toward sculpting feathered wings…) Although o.k. in my eyes, the wings fail to win any glory the way I did them (plasticard and paint). This is where the worth of information would have its place: Had I done a little research in the CMON data-base, I would have Certainly stumbled upon Tuffskull´s MASSIVELY COOL THE UNHOLY (German GD Bronze!!! ignore this at your own risk, you´re missing out a treat…) I wouldn´t have him had to tell me personally (with more than a bit of sympathy)! So big thanx go out to Tuffskull for his cool ideas (visit his gallery!!) I really plan to redo those wings consequently, but first I have to go to find suitable bio-materials to make them rise up from the dead… (oh, how very much nurgle this is!!!) As a result, I plan to surf CMON a lot more than I did recently, As there are sooo many cool things out there for inspiration, adaptation, or simply ripping off… As always, I really appreciate any comments, tips, and critcism, Thanks a lot for the time you took and Happy paiting!!!
