Finished with this batch of Death Guard, tried something with the bases to make it look like blue slime but not super happy with it

Slap chopping my rhino and I am happy with the Nurgle like results since it will match the armor of my already painted dudes. I have not invested in an airbrush but am thinking about it

Inking of Death Guard models is done, used dark ink for the pox walkers and chaos spawn and dark green ink for the Death Guard. Now to varnish and paint the bases

Then the other parts of the army that are unassembled.
Close up of Chaos Spawn inked in dark ink. I am ok with the results Close up of the Lord of Contagion and happy with the inking Close up of dark inked Poxwalkers and happy how they turned out. Inking really evened out their painting Close up of Death Guard with green ink and happy with the result
