{"product_id":"diseased-exploguts-squad-x3","title":"Diseased Exploguts Squad (3 Models)","description":"\u003cp data-end=\"380\" data-start=\"23\"\u003eDiseased masses of swollen flesh lurch forward with terrifying inevitability, and the Diseased Exploguts Squad (3 Models) embodies this horror in its purest form. These grotesque figures are not soldiers in the traditional sense, they are living payloads of corruption, their bloated bodies stretched to the brink of rupture as they stagger toward the enemy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"773\" data-start=\"384\"\u003eEach Diseased form is obscenely distended, bare flesh pulled tight over engorged limbs and rupturing boils. Their skin is a map of infection: pocked, split, and weeping with toxic fluids. These figures carry no weapons, for they are weapons. Every step they take brings them closer to catastrophic release, their unstable bodies threatening to burst in a violent cascade of filth and decay.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1171\" data-start=\"777\"\u003eOn the battlefield, the Diseased Exploguts Squad is used as a terror unit and living demolition charge. Their presence alone forces enemies to reconsider positioning, as even a single rupture can spread devastation across tightly packed formations. Whether driven by unseen will or mindless instinct, they advance without hesitation, heedless of incoming fire or their own imminent destruction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1600\" data-start=\"1175\"\u003eThere is a disturbing inevitability to their movement. Bulging forms sway and quiver as pressure builds beneath the surface, their bodies audibly straining under the weight of infection. When they finally give way, the result is not just physical destruction but a lingering contamination that poisons the ground and all who stand upon it. Few sights are as unsettling as a Diseased Exploguts Squad moments before detonation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1939\" data-start=\"1604\"\u003eFor hobbyists, these models offer a uniquely visceral canvas. The exaggerated anatomy, ruptured textures, and organic forms reward experimentation with gloss effects, gore, and colour variation. Each Diseased figure can be painted as a distinct nightmare of swelling infection, making the squad both cohesive and individually striking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePainting Guide: Diseased Exploguts Squad (3 Models)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCapture the unsettling, swollen horror of these living contagions with layered textures and sickly tones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e1.
