I really liked it up until I put the branch in its back, then it became a handling nightmare. Think they should have stuck to a 2d(ish) version, if that makes sense. I too have the new Beast of Nurgle - what a brute :-)Blaxklerichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06986635840718583767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1308328551615343287.post-73802948320771484652018-01-29T15:50:09.254-08:002018-01-29T15:50:09.254-08:00T'Challa looks pretty badarse and musclebound....T'Challa looks pretty badarse and musclebound. Very nice job on him.<br /><br />That Nurgle tree... I like the idea, like the fluff, but can't stand the model for them. Think I'll be making my own versions out of wire, foil and some sort of clay.

But then his scale hit me, and I thought he'd look better crouching on the ground. The Gnarlmaw does have rules for "Warhammer 40K", so it should fit in just fine :-)Blaxklerichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06986635840718583767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1308328551615343287.post-68450999368480318842018-01-21T13:29:01.070-08:002018-01-21T13:29:01.070-08:00Like the Black Panther.

Hopefully it wont put you off giving it a tip top paint job and we can get another monster tree in your top ten!
