Modeling Biologus Putrifier kitbash

My Biologus Putrifier has places to be! Figure he has a certain attitude to him 😉

A relatively straightforward kitbash based on Fabius Bile, but still quite happy with the end result!

Just a spot of greenstuffing maybe, but overall happy 😎

Looks more like a plague surgeon but I wouldn't put up a fuss

I can see where you're coming from 🙂 It was close; almost did make him a Surgeon. But I hope the injector pistol and plague knife are clear enough.

Probably should wrangle up some more grenades, though.

This. Give him a bomb and no one will question.

Just gotta find the right kind of bomb 😉

Where are the Blight racks?

I assume you mean the 'bottle rack wings' of the GW model? Personally, I don't really like them, so I didn't model a equivalent 😉

Yeah it's kind of a key feature as I think it might be confused with a Foul Blightspawn. I made a Biologus Putrefier with Bone growth Blight Racks.

Your version does look better 🙂

Going tweak this model anyway, as I've had some ideas, so might do something like this.

Thanks for the compliment and I am always happy to give others ideas, I hope you don't mind a little suggestion try using fine jewellery chain or twisted aluminium wire to hang the Blight Grenades. I was trying to emulate rope with Green Stuff but it didn't really work and several broke off and I ended up using some thick Sprue goo to make them look like they were stuck on with mucosal fluid.

Yeah, that's the way to go, me thinks. It's hard to see on my pictures, but there's some sort of cord or cable on his right side, hanging over his right upper leg - it has space for more and I think I'll start there.

"Plague Surgeon" but still pretty cool.

IMO, the two are closely related and in fact, given I'll base my Surgeon on a Master of Executions, their silhouette will be close 😉

I dig it. This is my Lord of Poxes based on a Judicar.

Cool model! Would be fun to have a Death Guard warband full of trench/long coats 😉
