    Flow is super weird... It's like the trigger isn't pulling the needle back far enough. If I manually pull the needle a bit further the flow is expected... Otherwise it's not at all, or intermittent.

    Suspect a blockage somewhere but need to take the nozzle off and get in there which is always a fiddly bastard job.

    Try leaving it in cleaner over night, might just loosen the blockage.

    I'm planning on unscrewing the nozzle and getting in there and giving it a clean. I just hate taking the nozzle of because it's such a fiddly little bastard, and if you cross thread it or do anything then it's game over for the nozzle.

    I'll see what I can do... Failing that I have a birthday coming up so might shell out on an expensive one and be more vigilant with my cleaning procedures.

    I fished out some gunk and it's done a lot for it. Getting a tiny bit of splatter but I think that's the air pressure. It's definitely an improvement anyway...

    I'll find you the exact name tomorrow, I think it might be called toxic purple...

    It's part of the Dreadknight I destroyed to build my nurgle Decimator, I believe it says "malleus"

    Hey Ritual!
    A bit late to say that (I wasnt around the forum much this past year) but I find your models in general very cool, and these Nurgle endeavours have amazing colours!!
    (sir Archibald Kudos agrees. :pompus:)
    Keep it up mate, and welcome!

    Nice mess...
    Adjusting my critics to your high level of painting, I'd say the eyes could be a a bit brighter (or more glowing)...

    Yeah, I was considering gloss varnishing them, but I might try and add a small white dot to them instead, they're just very small as it is!

    I've finished all three of them now!

    Nice! Are you going to play them or is that mostly a painting project?

    I'm planning on a full nurgle Daemon army so I can use it for both AoS and 40k...
