Chaos Sorcerer
Picked up in a batch sale, I had this guy with a thin base paint for some time, then painted him a little more, then a little more, then finally finished him off for a chaos warband game.
The paint on him now has quite a few thin layers, and although not a difficult model to paint, there was some unexpected detail, such as the small reptilian skull fetish on the staff, some rusted chainmaille and the metal insignia disc.
One of the reasons I took so long on this model before finally coming back to him, was the staff. It is weird. The cross-piece seems to be of carved bone or furled rams horn, and the geometric insignia and top part of the staff was a contrast to what Nurgle chaos usually offers, and I actually considered removing it altogether. However, I decided to keep the staff top, but added in a skull, turning the vacant space into a mount. Now he has a little of the decay vibe that works for me.
