Gnarled and leathery, like a rotted apple left too long in the sun, Horticulous Slimux is a pragmatic and humourless being with a no-nonsense approach to war and gardening alike. Sat astride his lumbering molluscoid steed, Mulch, the Plague God's head gardener tills the foetid soil of the material world, casting an experienced eye over the festering flora all around him as he goads packs of thrashing plague beasts into battle.

This multipart plastic kit builds one Horticulous Slimux, the Grand Cultivator of the Garden of Nurgle. Festooned with grotesquely amusing details, this unique Herald features many points of interest – Horticulous himself sits perched atop his mount's spiralling shell, hefting the enormous lopping shears he uses to trim Nurgle's garden and execute his enemies. A twisted tree grows behind him like a seat rest, strung with a host of pots, potions, fertilisers and mushrooms, all for later planting. His massive snail-like steed, Mulch, is tempted ever-onward by a Nurgling lashed to the rod that dangles in front of his face – dragging the gruntleplough chained to his shell in hopes of a tasty snack!

This kit comprises 32 plastic components and is supplied with a Citadel 105x70mm Oval Base. This miniature is supplied unpainted and requires assembly – we recommend using Citadel Plastic Glue and Citadel Colour paints.
