      Hey dude, think you could kitbash a Bringer of Judgement? The Lexicanum page (here: wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Bringers_of_Judgement) has the colour scheme. They are specialised in crushing rebellions so maybe you could include this in the kitbash(?) love your content, hope you have a nice day.

      I never understand why GW doesn't lean more in to promoting kit-bashing as some sort of "Super Advanced Technique"; something for players to aspire to. I know that, as a kit-basher, I spend far too much money on buying GW kits to make conversions. I like to buy the whole kit, rather than individual bitz, as it adds more fodder to drive future conversions.

    Here's a hot-ish take (a lukewarm take I guess?). Use these, the space skaven conversion as a basis for some chaos cultists, and a Verminlord as a Demon Prince, and you've got a Nurgle army that's way more interesting visually than half of the Death Guard (which themselves are the most visually interesting Chaos Space Marines)

      Personally I've always pictured them as being pale, with sunken features, and partially sewn up lips. And I feel like arming them with chain weapons fits a kind of twisted contradiction of them fighting in complete silence whilst brutally dismembering their foes.
