Chaos Terminator Lords

Hi All,

 

Here's my latest figure - the plastic Chaos Terminator Lord in Night Lords colours. I really liked the kit and would like to build a couple more due to the amount of options that are available. I did a very slight conversion - I took the right shoulder of the combi weapon as it was straighter than the arm of the combi-flamer. I deliberately didn't highlight the blue parts of the armour as I didn't want it conflicting with the lightning bolts. I also used a lot of the brown GW wash to give the Tin Bitz armour plating a tarnished and worn look. Just for fun I've included a picture of the 2007 Metal Terminator Lord - I personally liked the figure although it was in a rather static pose.

 

As always I'd like to here your comments and criticisms as it helps me to become a better painter.

Looking good :> that tin bits works really well as a contrast to the blue. cool!

 

The only bit I don't get with that kit, is the legs in seperate sections (it was useful to me when making a terminator character) but seems a little unnecessary. I mean, there are no alternatives on the sprue!

 

Its a bit like the seperate shoes on the Ogre sprues, why?!

The stonework's exceptionally good - how did you get it so weathered? I've got my own Terminator Lord to paint soon, I'd love to get his base looking as good as that! ^_^

 

Hi There,

 

Thanks for your thoughts on the base. I undercoated the whole base with black spray and then painted three thin layers of scorched brown. I then washed the whole thing with Danub Mud. When the wash was dry I lightly dry brushed two layers of Snakebite Leather, then dry brushed Graveyard Earth followed by Bleached Bone and finally Skull White. I found that a light dry brush for each layer really brought out the stone work.

whats your recipe for the blue on your night lords?

 

its rather nice, ps i cannot stand crappy purpley midnight blue!

 

bt yes, your lord looks fan dabby dosey

 

Cheers for the compliment. The dark blue was made up using the following recipe:

 

Basecoat of Necron Abyss

Wash of Asurmen Blue

Layer of 50:50 Midnight Blue and Regal Blue

Layer of 50:50 Regal Blue and Enchanted Blue

First off, excellent blue, lightning, metal, stonework...just Wow!

 

But...<and you knew there might be one coming ^_^ >, I really think you need to give his cloak just a tad more attention, maybe even some freehand. This guy looks just awesome, but his cloak looks like it came out of a second hand store. Even if it was just some additional highlights and perhaps the dirtying of the bottom bit...he really deserves just a bit more love.

 

I really like what you've done. Keep up the good work!

Thanks Honda. Your comments about the cloak are spot on - it's great having another pair of eyes on the figure. I'll see what I can do to make it looks less 2nd hand and more battle hardened. I'll post some more pictures once I've had a go at it.
