I was about to argue with you, then I remember that I was thinking about the LRB 4 Rotters who didn't wear that much armour. With the LRB 5 Chaos Warriors of Nurgle, they will be much more heavily armoured, and the red armour will look more suited to Khorne than Nurgle.
Maybe Rusty metal with red and black on the shoulder pads? |

I agree red and black will not make a good team for Uncle nurgle...

Now if I am doing Bilerot, then is he going to be counting as a rotter, or a chaos warrior? I am not too concerned about him in terms of the red and black debate as he is mostly unarmoured (his gut protects him!)
EDIT - I'll go with #1 the team. |

It doesn't seem like we can please everyone, so maybe whomever is spearheading the team this year makes a FINAL decision based on the opinions placed so far. If this debate over team colors and which models for which positions keeps going, the team itself won't be finished until 2007! |

So who exactly is in charge of these things? I am happy to go with the colours as shown in the article posted by howlinggriffon. I will do Bilerot up and post a pic, if people like, then we can use that as a launching point. If not approved, then I can repaint - no biggee. |

I agree Bilerot should be a Chaos Warrior.
Let's decide on this for color schemes:
We'll do the figures up in nurgle colors, as described in one of the painting guides I posted OR the one howlinggriffon suggested. I like the ease and look of Howlinggriffon's, but not everyone will have the exact paints and washes and inks that guy had, so some variance will be inevitable. Let's try to get something fairly close to the pictures from that article if possible.
Numbers should be painted in red on top of a black background. That can either be a shoulderpad painted black with red lettering, or red lettering on top of black lettering.
Paint the flag of your country somewhere on the base if you can.
Post picture here as soon as possible so that others can see them and try to mimic your colors and style. |

The last team I helped with was sold by the winner to another of the painters the day he won it and the rest of the painters didn't get a chance to purchase it instead (ie outbid him). I haven't participated in a legacy team since then.
But Milo is a standup guy ... so I'm willing to help with this one.
Milo put me down for Nurgle Chaos Warrior with Claws (I'm thinking Edward Scissorhands or Wolverine instead of the old lobster claw) ... #33.

MILO:
Please add all of the following items to your opening post on the first page of this thread ... otherwise ... chaos will reign ... and not the good Nurgly type like we want ...
Galak
Milo wrote: Galak, I was planning to use one of the Rotter minis as my Rotter, and I know at least a couple of people who are doing Nurgle Warriors have specified that they were using WHFB minis, so I think that's already the plan. However, just to confirm:
If you are planning to paint a Nurgle Warrior, do NOT use one of the Rotter figures from the Nurgle's Rotters team miniatures -- they will be used for Rotter figures and would be confusing to have two different positions represented by the same model.
Milo wrote: Actually, I'd like the deadline be to get minis painted and postmarked by the end of November. That gives us three months from now to do the painting, and it gives me most of December to assemble the team and ship it to the winner, hopefully so they can have it DURING 2006.
