Nurgle Lord Commission Piece

I've been asked by a friend to paint a few of his chaos characters.  So I started with the Nurgle Lord.  he was a lot of fun to paint.  I love painting Nurgle stuff.  Most of my Chaos Space Marines and daemons for 40k are Nurgle.  Anyhoo here he is

I painted the large ulcer in his belly to look like an eye.  Combined with the gaping hole in his gut it looks a bit like a cyclopian face.  Actually it looks like its trying to gum his axe.  I normally shade my Nurgle flesh brown to make it look really dirty, this time I thought I'd try something different and went with purple.  I think the effect works well, he looks bruised.  I went with green armour for contrast.  I don't normally like green on Nurgle, but here it works.

And he is from the back. 

This week's end time goal is complete.  The finished pictures will go up on Thursday.
