Some of you knows my works but for those who are unfamiliar with them - I place photos for you. All my squad consists of 5 bikers - every one represents particular chaos god and the 5th one is a substance of chaos - The mighty Twin Lord of WB order (photo soon in WIP). If you have any ideas about WB (converting, painting, etc.) I am here to listen.
This biker represents Nurgle and consits of some formerly living insects (flies and bees).

Cool that you've converted an old Beast of Nurgle into a bike, quite original! What I don't like though is the base. It's a bit too big and takes the attention away from the miniature itself Imho...

Well, Demi, you don't see this but flies are painted (and even a little highlightened) and well embalmed. They should not decompse, I guess. Though, I had to glue the flies (the head, body and wings) 'cause I spoiled them once. But now they feel very good and comfortable :-)

I think the fly is in the front of the vehicle - on nurgle's beast head, but where is the bee? is this the strange stuff in the back?

:curtain: btw - aren't You maybe from elblÄ…g or from the neighbourhood? :roll:

Yes, the Fly is on beast head and on the shoulder pad of rider. The bee is in cocoon in the back indeed.
Elblag??? Where is it??? :-)

I have to say I don't really like the base but the figure itself is gorgeous! However I suspect the bike squad would look pretty nicewhen placed together with the base like that!
