I like orange on them too but I'm kind of sorry I wen twith such a bright shade. Grey instead of the purple would have been better as well.

Thats a really handsome team!

I like the traditional Nurgle colors of breen, brown, etc...you could really spice it up by making the armor look corroded like hey did over at the GW web site.

Plague Elemental on a Thrud base. I should have given him some BB shoulderpads or something I could have put team colors on buy he was the only one I had and quite hard to find. I have another now though.

I didn't paint them but the skin was done with a wash of Nurgle Juice. It's just a brownish-green wash. Some skin has a tan base, some were flesh, some were green. They all got the juice.

I'm playing them in a PBeM league. They're not really competetive. Rotters are no Chaos Warriors. FA has not really been an issue. Lack of skills and few rerolls are going to hurt you.
