Terminatorinhell Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 so ive never seen an night lord defiler so i figured i can make my own little scheme of it and I tried the lightning effects on the plated armor , now this is very WIP, the metals were drybruhed needing a bit of mith silver drybrush burnishing and black washes. The lower body is being painted and the top i didnt even start. Tips and ideas welcome! oh and *sobs* Emperor protect my soul! quick question, what would be a a night lordly gold ? the shining gold or the other bronzy gold? http://i183.photobucket.com/albums/x127/TerminatorOfHellsing/DSC00792.jpg http://i183.photobucket.com/albums/x127/TerminatorOfHellsing/DSC00793.jpg http://i183.photobucket.com/albums/x127/TerminatorOfHellsing/DSC00794.jpg http://i183.photobucket.com/albums/x127/TerminatorOfHellsing/DSC00795.jpg http://i183.photobucket.com/albums/x127/TerminatorOfHellsing/DSC00796.jpg http://i183.photobucket.com/albums/x127/TerminatorOfHellsing/DSC00797.jpg http://i183.photobucket.com/albums/x127/TerminatorOfHellsing/DSC00798.jpg and yes atm he is defiling my printer lol....bad pun...

Warforger Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 The reason there aren't any is because it goes against fluff, Night Lords don't use Chaos I think, and Defilers are demonically possessed engines, but anyway, go back to what Docter Thunder said "Never let fluff get in the way of a cool modelling project" Anyway, looking good so far.

Brother Nihm Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 quick question, what would be a a night lordly gold ? the shining gold or the other bronzy gold?It depends on your taste, personally I prefer something in-between.My gold is VGC Shining Gold (I forgot the name of the GW equivalent) mixed with Scorched Brown (70:30). Followed by a highlight of thinned Shining Gold + a few Devlan Mud washes. Last is a highlight of slightly thinned Shining Gold + Chainmail (50:50). It looks like: this the torso is being painted so far the blue is based on and the face is replaced (but is interchangeable),also im wondering if i should even put the gold trim....What's a Night Lord without his gold trim? ;)Of course you should do it! The only thing I'd change, based on the images above, is the blood effect. At the moment it looks too cartoon'y. If you really want blood on there I suggest that you see this tutorial, by Lonewolf. Otherwise I suggest that you drop the blood idea and leave it metallic, OR you could try and go the weathering route and simulate a mud/dirt effect on the claws. Regardless, Seeing your Night Lord defiler in the making is inspiring and so far he's coming along nicely, keep it up. :blush: (this might even get me to pull myself together and paint mine) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/153422-night-lords-defiler-pip/#findComment-1788683 Share on other sites More sharing options...

JetfireUK Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 Ah, Nightlords, my favourite Chaos force! The Defiler is looking very good so far. I agree with the comments about the red looking a tad cartoony and agree that the claws would look nicer as weathered metal. The lightning is looking good and all I would do is add a very fine white highlight in the centre of the lightning - otherwise it's spot on. I always prefer the darker gold/burnished gold trim on Nightlords - I did mine using Ton Bitz, washed with Devlan Mud and then highlighted with a mix of Brazen Brass and Shining Gold. Hope that helps? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/153422-night-lords-defiler-pip/#findComment-1788787 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terminatorinhell Posted November 28, 2008 Author Share Posted November 28, 2008 yes Jetfire ill try your gold as i would like a nice burnished gold, the blood may be a bit tough to get rid of (painting over it may mess up some details) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/153422-night-lords-defiler-pip/#findComment-1788813 Share on other sites More sharing options...
JetfireUK Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 One idea about the red - how about giving it a bit more depth by darkening it in some places and lightning it in others? I've never really done blood spatters but there must a tutorial somewhere? Hope that helps and keep up the good work!

Terminatorinhell Posted November 28, 2008 Author Share Posted November 28, 2008 that could work what if I used blood red and red gore and gave it a baal red wash?
