Nurgle Hellbrute revisited

So the tentacle head from the Spawn kit I used on this ol' boy never felt right to me. It needed something different. Guess what? I got a fever, and the only prescription is more tentacle!

I think he looks adequately infected now. I used a MaxMini Biohazard head for him since they look just slightly on the large side for normal Marines. It fits pretty well and gives the model a real creepy feel. The Green Stuff Ind. tentacle maker is the gift that just keeps on giving...

As far as using this on the tabletop, well....probably not gonna see much action. I could maybe see one set up strictly for fire support for your vehicles as they advance up field; since they are low priority with all your other threats in a Chaos force they might survive for a while. Just gotta keep them outta hand to hand, they get murdered anymore.

Oh yes. This looks great! Nice use of spares as well as the tentacle additions. Need to get around to picking up a tentacle maker!

That's a great looking piece of work, Jugger! I really like the little head on the big body. And you've become quite skilled at the tentacles, too! I just wish Brutes weren't so "meh" on the table.

Thanks fellas!

Tony - Go to Green Stuff's page and snag one, you'll love it!

Agreed on the Hellbrute meh, GSI. Just get shot up quick anymore.
