Monkeychunks Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 Ello, I've decided to start up a Night Lord army for the third time, and have produced this little chap. He's my tester model to get the scheme right, and I'm very happy with him so far. http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t60/mozzaman/Night%20Lords/DSCF2563.jpg http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t60/mozzaman/Night%20Lords/DSCF2564.jpg http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t60/mozzaman/Night%20Lords/DSCF2565.jpg You may have noticed I've gone without the bat-helmets. This is because they look very silly. The 3 claw-marks on his shoulder indicate he's a member of third squad, while the bloody hand is just there to look cool. I've given him a healthy coating of Boltgun Metal after painting, to give him a more realistic look. The army will be heavily inspired by the novel 'Soul Hunter' from the Black Library, which I absolutely loved. Anyway, there we go. Hope you enjoyed it.

lee265 Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 Awsome painting and he looks great with a normal helmet. the one thing is the mold line on his helmet is really noticable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Nihm Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 Apart from the mold line issue he looks worn, grim and lethal. In other words he's perfect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkeychunks Posted May 5, 2010 Author Share Posted May 5, 2010 Thanks for the replies. I did notice the mould lines after I put him up, and I'm happy to say they've been removed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midnightmare Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 Actually I think you'll find that it is I that owns the night..... ;) Cool mini though, how I like 'em nice and dirty! Nice free hand, especially right shoulder gaurd, any chance of a better look? :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobte11th5 Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 wel, they say third time lucky, that is one awesome marine, either your lightening is more muted than other NL ive seen, or the blue is darker, but it does give him a more creepy and darker image, perfect for NL :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David the Despoiler Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 Do you plan on doing the others with or without horned helms? If without, how do you plan on removing them? Just leaving a flat circle where they used to be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skidion Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 Excellent lightning, and it's got that nice grimdarkness about it. Only thing, it looks almost dusty, but that could the picture, or the intent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkeychunks Posted May 14, 2010 Author Share Posted May 14, 2010 Got another one for you. http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t60/mozzaman/Night%20Lords/NL-2.jpg http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t60/mozzaman/Night%20Lords/NL-2side.jpg This guy originally had tattoos on his head, but I removed them because they didn't feel right. He still has a big old face-cleaver though. And here we have Third Claw in their entirety. http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t60/mozzaman/Night%20Lords/NL-group.jpg Enjoy!

Prot Posted May 15, 2010 Share Posted May 15, 2010 These guys look like something you'd find in a back alley, snapping the necks of off duty Ultramarines. Dude you make me want to paint Night Lords! These are awesome..... but that massive mold line is killing me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paradigm Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 I'm really liking what you are doing. It's the first time I've really liked the lightning bolts on them. I just got my mail orders to start my Night Lords force. While my plan is for a much less ornate marine, I might just draw up a few lightning bolts now.
