Maggotkin of Nurgle (pt.4) - painting the Plaguebearers, continue sculpting the Great Unclean One

Got some colours on them Plaguebearers. I've heard quite a few times how it's always a good idea to paint a test model with the intended scheme before committing fully to painting an army with it. Well, I just started my run with 40 test models. Wet blended in 3 different washes / contrast paints in every group of 10. In hindsight I definitely like the ones with cyan-magenta-dark blue base colours the most. Maybe should have painted every unit like that? Or maybe not. It's nice to have variation. And when things don't go exactly right in the beginning, it's always possible to do changes later. So I continued with painting just one unit first to see how it goes.

I had an idea of how I wanted these Plaguebearers to look. Necrotic, mouldy, rotten and algid flesh. Autumnal yellows and oranges. Feint blue greys and dirty magenta. Not the regular set of greens that Nurgle models sometimes get painted with. Grey unrecognizable bases, that could be organic, stone or even demonic? And I wanted to have fun and relaxed time painting, so went for lots of careless washes and drybrushes, because that's what I like doing the most. Only did a few important details with more care (like the banner, some pimples, nails and eyes). 

I also added some flabby layers of skin and other details on the Great Unclean One.
