Review : Town House by TableTop World

When my wife asked me what i wanted for christmas, i figured it was the best time of the year to ask for some terrain for my warhammer table, which is empty for fantasy. So i asked her for a few things from Tabletop World, without really knowing what they're like, minus their homepage and their thread on Warseer.

Today, i present you, the Town House

As presented on the Tabletop World site

Nurgle Carnival - Great Unclean One

A few weeks ago, after a game where my Dark Elf ass was handed to me, someone kindly told me that a metal GUO was for sale in used for just 25$. Considering i was contemplating buying the Forge World one, i figure it was a steal, even if i HATED the model.

One of the biggest issue i had with him was that it was just ugly. After a while trying to figure out how to paint him, i realized something else was bugging me ; he wasnt fitting at all with the plaguebearers ; his wounds were very oddly shaped, his guts weren't hanging out, he seriously was just some big ass model without much to offer. I attempted to fix at least one problem, making his guts hanging out.

He's not my favourite model, and i think it shows on the paint, not my favourite paintjob either. I tried to go for a not so unified skin color, adding many different shade and highlight, but the result was far from what i was aiming for. A very big learning experience.

So here is, mister Great Unclean One, the Carnival's main attraction. Still unnamed.





Pretty happy with his guts. Not perfect, but i managed a good job at hiding the joint with his belly.

Nurgle Carnival - Plague Bearers WIP #6

Tonight i finished 5 more plaguebearers ; my flyboy. There's no real reason why i went with flies, except that it really fits with the nurgle part of my theme. They were a kick to build, but not so much fun to paint, and it shows ; they're not my best, imho. Still, they add variety to an already very diversified army. I can also use them as Furies, if i ever feel like fielding them.

 
 
5 flies. 7 would been better i guess, but i though that too many would draw too much attention to them, and not the theme

Nurgle Carnival - Plague Bearers WIP #5

Today there is not gonna be that many picture of the remaining Plaguebearers. They arent really any diffrerent than the other, except for their clownliness. A carnival couldnt happen without clowns, right?

8 Clowns sitting in a tree...

So this is all the Plaguebearers i have left completely painted. What is left is my Great Unclean one, and my unfinished Plaguebearers and unit fillers.

Nurgle Carnival - Plague Bearers WIP #3

Today, here are 6 more plaguebearers, mostly finished (a few touch up left to do, but should look about 95% like this when done)





from left to right ; Strong man,slug eater (fakir style), knife thrower, slug eater #2, Random Chap, Vomiter (Fire eater)

I tried sculpting a spine on the random chap. It worked nicely, but would been better with some skin overlapping it
