I am finally finishing up my Storm Eagle, which was unquestionably the most unpleasant and maddening model I have ever assembled. I do not recommend it.
That said now I need to Nurgle that shit up, despite the fact that it's been costed basically out of use. Playing mostly DG and Orks I don't really have much experience with fliers, so I am taking suggestions on what to alter on this thing while still keeping it looking like something capable of flight.
So...I guess if you have always had a great idea for a flying vomit monster, but have never had the proper medium for your idea, here is your chance.

This would be a huge undertaking to the point of being unrealistic, but when talking of Nurgle flyers only one thing comes to mind:
Giant fly.
Paint the flyer with 'slime' over darker layers, add some insect wings (could make them metal like the stormraven, whatever completes the illusion), add some insect legs, and paint the cockpit some equivalent of compound eyes, and you have the most repulsive flyer papa Nurgle could dream of!

Definitely need some dangly, tentacle, feeder-tube bits hanging from the "head"

What about using little mouths spitting out plumes of plague smoke or vomit instead of normal jet engine manifolds? I'm thinking things like the mouth from the Maggoth Lord kit would look amazing, and then just in general having tentacles and eyes and bloated flesh popping out of armor panels and doors etc. And then obviously having a nurgling as the pilot in the cockpit (duh).

obviously having a nurgling as the pilot in the cockpit (duh). yeah that's gotta happen. I would be personally offended if you skipped that part. |

Damnit that's a really good idea.

Screw you guys, now I can't get that out of my head and I'm going to have to pry that guy out now.
Loving the fly idea. Not sure if I can figure out the wings, but the mouths and legs seem doable

Related aesthetic question, Landing gear up or down? I'm thinking up

If by landing gear you mean tentacle mouths, then down obviously
