From SimonM - 28mm "Heroscape" Marro Marrden Nagrubs (15 Points)

These three 28mm plastic pre-painted models of some Marro Marrden Nagrubs were made by “Wizards Of The Coast” and used to be available from their "Heroscape" Swarm Of The Marro Master Set 2 range.
These deadly massive hounds were initially re-based upon 40mm circular bases and all undercoated with "Citadel" Abaddon Black. Each model was then dry-brushed with "Vallejo" German Grey and washed with "Citadel" Nuln Oil. Once this Shade had dried they were each given a second, significantly lighter dry-brush of "Vallejo" German Grey over their bellies and legs, and had their sharp pointed teeth painted using a combination of "Vallejo" Gunmetal Grey and "Citadel" Nuln Oil. Finally each monster's head and spinal carapace was given a coat of Abaddon Black.
Although I was momentarily tempted to stick to these Nagrubs' original colour scheme of bone underbelly and legs with green chitinous armour, I soon decided that they'd actually make excellent H.R. Giger-inspired Alien dog-creatures. As a result I have painted them in exactly the same way as I have with my previously submitted "Horrorclix" Aliens.

Very nasty looking alien hounds Simon, and in mean that in the nicest possible way! I don't think these guys will be dissuaded by a milk bone tossed their way, so I'll steer clear of them.   This looks to be the first of three for you today, meaning that you may outpost Adam!
