A quick one today – and it’s the last pair of my painted-in-August models. It’s a pair of Giant Maggots from Reaper’s Bones range. These two were produced in a nice, firm plastic that took both paint and varnish just fine – so a huge step up from the traditional garbage plastic that Bones has been. It might be the new(ish) Bones Black material, though these ones were in the usual white. Of course, the amount of blackness or whiteness is just down to the particular dyes used in the PVC mix, so whatever…
Nothing too exciting about the painting process. Pale colours, some washing, some thinned contrast, some drybrushing, and some fine detail on the horrid little eyeballs and mouthparts.
For gaming, they’ll have potential use in both the Undead army as well as the Legion of Nurgle, whether Fantasy or 40k – possibly as extra plaguebearers thrown into the mix with the regular models. Luvvverly!
Excellent work on some truly disgusting looking maggots, can easily see then in the two forces you mention

Those look suitably maggot like. Papa Nurgle would approve.
Cheers,

Those really are disgusting as Dave says above. Only Nurgle could love something like this. Great job painting these foul things 🙂

I’ll agree with everyone above, since I just can’t manage to go that little bit further and write something complimentary about maggots! 🙂

Nice one! Think I have one of these minis, most likely once again because I saw it on your blog and ended up buying one. Damn you!
I really like the pink color on these. Unfortunately I’ve found that I only have about three pink paints and they never seems to be what I need.
