Army Showcase: Death Guard by Doug Waltman

By Rob Baer | April 21st, 2010 | Categories: Army Showcase, Chaos Space Marines, Warhammer 40k

A few months ago I went to Cabin Fever GT in Harrisonburg, PA. There was a ton of great looking armies there and I got permission from their owners to post them up.

The first army was Death Guard by Doug Waltman.  Doug is a really cool dude, and volunteers to help run Mechanicon GT, along with Tony Spino and the rest of their crew. They put on a great tourney so make sure you try to make it this year to Mechanicon ’10.

This is a really nicely done army with elements of many colors and styles blending together. The conversions were also very well done, especially all the sergeants and standard bearers.  He also gave special attention to his HQ choices, a Lord and Greater Daemon.

I also like how he did his display base, sinking small rare earth magnets into a cork base. He also used the City Fight terrain to build up some ruins around the plateaus as well.

Anyways check out his work and make sure if you even see him you give him Kudos!
