In the Warhammer 40,000 universe, there is little that is more terrifying than the Death Guard. These former space marines fell during the Horus Heresy, and made a pact with the chaos god of plague and entropy. Ever since, they have been known as the Plague Marines, a force that fights not merely with sword and bolter, but with all the plagues of their virulent patron God.
These are actually some of the very first models I ever built and painted. They hold a special place in my heart, and really set the tone for some of my overall style choices with regards to my current painting. That said, there is a lot that I would do differently now. I still like the color scheme, but I would seriously change my shadows and highlights. Those were concepts I just didn't get when I was a few months into mini painting. Now, with much more experience behind me, I could do a lot better.
I don't really have any intentions of repainting these though. They will live on as the first miniatures I ever finished.
