JetfireUK Posted April 24, 2010 Share Posted April 24, 2010 Hi Folks, I finally got these Nightlords done today. Overall I'm pretty pleased with them and the odd forks of lightning really add some interest on these dark looking miniatures. The flame-looking things on the base were annoying and a little miscast so I just added a little red and orange to give a kind of flame/smoke theme. Having spent some time with these models I do like them but I found that there were parts of the miniatures which had lost some detail and areas where they were a little miscast - hopefully I did them proud. What do you folk think? http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y104/JetfireUK/SL271252.jpg http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y104/JetfireUK/SL271253.jpg http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y104/JetfireUK/SL271254.jpg http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y104/JetfireUK/SL271255.jpg http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y104/JetfireUK/SL271256.jpg http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y104/JetfireUK/SL271257.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/199465-nightlord-chaos-lord-with-raptors/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Nihm Posted April 24, 2010 Share Posted April 24, 2010 Damn snazzy. Even though you took your sweet time on the lightning bolts, it paid off. :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/199465-nightlord-chaos-lord-with-raptors/#findComment-2375811 Share on other sites More sharing options...
JetfireUK Posted April 24, 2010 Author Share Posted April 24, 2010 Cheers! I really wanted to leave the lightning bolts till I had all six figures painted. It's a tricky thing to pull off well but I'm happy enough with the results.

Wendigo Posted April 24, 2010 Share Posted April 24, 2010 I love the way you've given the brass metal a verdigris patina to suggest age and weathering -- never seen anyone do that before. Perfect for veteran Traitor Marines. Good idea and good execution. W.

JetfireUK Posted April 25, 2010 Author Share Posted April 25, 2010 Thanks very much Wendigo. I hoped to pull off an ancient look to these miniatures - it's how I envision the Nightlords.
