 Since I started a Nurgle chaos army a little while back, I have come up with many ways of creating little Nurglesque details.
One way I’ve found very effective is the ‘ol super glue, white glue trick for making gross-looking slime (hee hee that was a Homeric Epithet). The tools and materials you will need:


1) Super glue. Any kind is fine, I'm using GW glue. 
2) Wood glue. Many people have probably done this technique with white glue but I find that wood glue works better.
3) The thing that you will produce the effect on be it creature or vehicle. I'm using a normal base as a demonstration. (I suppose you could use the technique to make a base too...)
4) A toothpick.

First, squeeze a drop of wood glue on the base.



Then spread the wood glue around with a toothpick.



After you have spread the wood glue evenly across the base, pour some super glue on top (not to much!) In less than a minute it should look something like this:

After it has dried sufficiently, prime it with, I suggest, black primer and paint it. Here is the finished product:

I painted it with a mixture of Tamiya, Games Workshop, and Games Workshop foundation paints.
Here is an example of where I used this technique somewhere else. On a land raider:

I hope you will be able to use this article! Thanks for reading it.

That is amazing, and slightly disturbing, saving this for my beasties!

I think I'm going to be sick. That looks wretched-Its PERFECT!!

The pics are fine. I don't need focus on smearing glue, and the result pics are clear enough to make me ill.

lovely. I wish the pics were better. I would rate it higher with better pics and maybe another example or two.

Pics could be better, but it's the idea that counts. Haven't heard of it before so thx and I guess I'll give it a try. Could also be a great effect for Tyranid bases (or any organic stuff)!

yes everyone i know the pictures suck. (they are cut from larger pictures i took) you are right freakinacage it does look better unpainted but if you are going to a painting competition or something, the judges wouldn't like that.
