I have been trying to keep my painting on track by letting myself do units for each side of the Nurgle force as evenly as I can. This unit will get done in time and will fill three slots in the end. It will be in both chaos 40K armies and also fits nicely in the old insect (snails and worms) Dragon Rampant army.
I started with a pack of 3 of these plague drones and undercoated their bodies weeks ago. Only when I picked up a further 3 figures, to flesh out the unit size, did I realise just how many fly wings that would leave me to paint.
That said, it should be a good looking unit when its finished. The stats in the Index don’t leave me to enthusiastic about their effectiveness in a game though. We’ll see in time I guess…
