Here is an old GW classic - Fabius Bile. I painted this one as a commission job. I know that he is meant to be Emperor's Children, rather than Death Guard, but I was instructed to paint him so that he would fit in with a Plague Marine army. And same with the base size - a 40mm base was requested! The base is from Micro Art Studio, with a bit of sand on top, and a marine head added to give a more 40k atmosphere.

Those bright greens were achieved with an ancient GW paint I have, called bilious green - anyone remember it? It's from back when the paints were in the circular containers with the white lids, and the 'citadel colour' label. Such a bright green, it's almost fluorescent!

There are more pics - also a bit bigger and better quality - on my site: just click the link above!

I hope you like it!

Excellent! The greens are really nice, I especially like the flashy ones... Bilious green you say? I'd say you could get a pretty close result with scorpion green.... If it still exists. The only criticism I could make would be that the metallics seem to lack some very dark shades. They seem... Sort of too bright. The rest is excellent. And the space marine head on the base, it's great .
