In these dark days it is not totally surprising to find some plaguebearers in box. Before the current plastic ones, which are great, Games Workshop produced a few generations of metal plaguebearers.
Probably my favourite is this little guy, trying to hold his guts in with one hand while wielding a sword with the other. Such dedication.
The old and new mix well.
Quick and easy to paint, I’m pretty happy with how these turned out. And you can always use a few more daemons.
I like the dark green and red, nice work!

They have come up well Dave. Nice to see some “old school” appear again.

I think there are some older ones again to be dug out. I see some more time travel in our future …

the new ones have a great sense of menace and movement, but I love the quirky old sculpts

Good painting. I think your bold colours match the slightly comical look of Plaguebearers nicely.

Thanks. I agree, I think comic-book or manga type styles match 40K well.

Nice daemons. 🙂 I agree with the others, the dark flesh works well. It is good to see that plaguebearers are a unit where the old sculpts and the new sculpts both are good and the former still hold up well in the current miniature landscape.
