Here's the Possessed with horn and a lot more body detail added:

I really like the way the spine shows in between the flesh of the back now, building up the flesh sparingly around the torn skin I'd already done has given pretty much exactly the effect I was aiming for.

He's really starting to get there now, and is rapidly becoming one of my favourite conversions/sculpts (not sure quite which he counts as since he's largely scratchbuilt but still uses a standard shoulderpad and most of two legs).

And here's where I am at the moment with the now-properly-named Yaaghash, Herald of Nurgle - buboes, feet, and knees added along with the beginnings of his recurved horn:

Given how the Possessed's spine turned out I'm looking forward to getting Yaaghash's back done now...

As always, more when I have it; I've now been sculpting for 10 hours straight today, though - mainly working on chainmail and heads/faces for my original-sculpt work - and am thoroughly exhausted and need to fall over.

how do you make additons to it so smooth? when i d ogreen stuff it has to be currosion work or my finger prints are everywhere. using apostrophes makes my nose bleed tried puttin gwater on it but it doesnt help and smooting is impossible

The possesed looks like earth worm jim! but That's the cool thing about him the goofy shape in a Power Armour. I like this one a lot.

Thank you for posting them on this site

Ooookaaaayyy. I'm going to be taking a bit of a break from the original-sculpt stuff for a bit, and lavishing a little more Nurgly love on Pandemic. I've actually been taking a couple of minis and tools into work and doing some sculpting there (I currently work nights in tech support, and it gets quiet later on) and here are some detail shots of some of the new guys who'll be joining the ranks of my Plague Marines:

...it's nice to know I can do work of this standard in work; that's going to save some time on my way to my goal of 77 Plague Marines, every one a full-on conversion.

I'll also be concentrating on getting Lord Borborygmus finished - or at least significantly advanced - and maybe an interesting vehicle conversion...if I can work out how to do it...

Wow Svart splendid stuff, so much details and all of it is nice and crisp. I really like your DG style and the GS work is top notch, I´m glad to see you working on these again as it is a real inspiration to all of us.

Keep it up //Erik
