The Avatar of Pandemic is a towering, plague-wracked daemon lord sculpted with an extraordinary level of grimdark detail, arriving as a physical resin miniature ready to assemble and paint straight out of the box. Supports have already been removed and surfaces cleaned, so you can get straight to the hobby the moment it arrives at your door. The kit comes in 21 parts and measures approximately 150mm from top to bottom.

Every element of this figure radiates rot and ruin. Vast, membrane-stretched wings spread wide, riddled with ragged holes and laced with bone-like spines. The main body is clad in diseased armour thick with pustules, hanging blades, and festering growths. A crushed figure lies beneath the model's feet, completing a base composition that tells its own grim story. The scale and presence of this piece make it a natural centrepiece for any corrupted warband or display collection.

Sculpted by DakkaDakka, this figure demonstrates the studio's talent for dense, layered surface work. Every surface rewards close inspection, from the sinew-threaded wing panels to the skull-encrusted torso armour.

The kit is cast in high-quality grey resin and ships ready to assemble and paint. All 21 parts fit together cleanly to produce the full winged Avatar of Pandemic shown in the product images.

Painting Guide: Avatar of Pandemic

This model rewards a patient, layered approach. Working up from deep shadows into pale, sickly highlights will bring out the texture and horror buried in every surface.

1. Prime

  • Prime with a grey or black spray for strong shadow retention across the deep recesses of the wings and armour.
  • A zenithal highlight in white or pale grey over the top will give you a useful pre-shading base to build from.

2. Armour Base

  • Basecoat the armour plates in a muted, desaturated green such as Death Guard Green or a similar mid-tone.
  • Block in the fleshy wing membranes and exposed organic tissue in a pale, unhealthy skin tone such as Rakarth Flesh or Pallid Wych Flesh.

3. Trim and Details

  • Pick out raised trim, spines, and bone protrusions in an off-white or aged bone tone, then wash with a brown or sepia shade for depth.
  • Add a thin wash of Agrax Earthshade or equivalent across all armour panels to settle shadows into crevices.

4. Weapons

  • Paint the bone-like blade weapons in a warm ivory, shading into brown and highlighting up to near-white at the tips.
  • Add a glaze of sickly green or yellow-green over blade edges to suggest toxic corruption.

5. Weathering

  • Stipple patches of rust and corrosion onto the armour using a sponge and a reddish-brown tone, concentrating on edges and joints.
  • Glaze the wing membranes with diluted greens and yellows to suggest translucency, bruising, and disease.
  • Add small dabs of bright, wet-looking gloss medium to pustules and open wounds for a visceral effect.

6. Bases

  • The integrated base scene already includes a crushed figure and rocky debris. Paint these in neutral stone tones and apply a heavy wash to unify the base with the model above.
  • Finish with a light drybrush of pale grey or bone across the highest points of the rubble to tie everything together.

This is an adult hobbyist collectible, not a toy. Not suitable for children under 14 years due to small, detailed parts.
