Fits perfect on a round 30 mm base - 40 mm would be a bit roomy.<br /><br />Really looking forward to see what you make of them!J.E.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07533763878318668907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7634605429843463825.post-48682353714943889062014-11-04T11:08:52.647+01:002014-11-04T11:08:52.647+01:00Yeah it´s flesh.

But since I have got a box of those Nurgle plastics myself I do know that he is huge. Awsome work. Keep 'em coming. btw, that black scroll in the belt is a nice touch.

Simply brilliant like all of your other stuff.<br /><br />The only thing that niggles for me is the painted Nurgle buboe on the bolt gun casing.

I like the brown, off-white look. He is clearly a plague marine, but the scheme is unique. I really like the blue accents coupled with the sparing use of red. The little heraldry shield looks wonderful, the pointy skull with three glowing eyes and a serpentine tongue is pretty rad!Eric Wierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01276836738624222147noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7634605429843463825.post-70490740609913936842014-11-01T17:54:50.791+01:002014-11-01T17:54:50.791+01:00Looks fantastic Jeff!
