Bewlay Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 Hey guys, as you might know (probably not) I collect NL, I've always been fond with the scary masters of twillight, and when I started the army fate was on my side and shortly after the first unit was painted, the excellent Soul Hunter was released, which only expanded my love for NL. Now with every army I collect, fluff is important, so my NL are no exception..... 12th company was, like the other companies, very succesful. They listen to Cruze and Cruze only, often deserting allies and enemies alike if the Night Haunter needed assistance. As with each company captain, Cruze gave 12th company's captain, the title 'the Bloodtear' mainly for what atocities he did to his victims usings his talons. While the rest of the legion headed towards Caliban during the Horus Heresy, 12th company came to the conclusion that the Heresy itself was a failure from the start, Horus failed to take into account any survivors and instead basked in his glory, as a result the Emperor could work agianst him. So in an act of defiance 12th ignorned the Night Haunters requests, and headed towards vulnerable forge worlds. Here they amassed equipment and forced imperial battlegroups to their service. With the heresy over and news of Konrads death, the Bloodtear became the self proclaimed heir to the NL throne. Megalomania set in and the Bloodtear began to believe himself as a rival to the greatest Chaos Lords in the galaxy. With his power he renamed the company 'the Weepers' , and punished worshipping of other Gods, as he was the only God there would ever be. However not all could be controlled and rumour is that a cult of the dark gods resides within the company, whether or not the Bloodtear's ego will allow him to see what is truly there is let to be seen, but a uprise is spreading as each power hungery Astarte decides on which option will be of most benifit. But the Weepers continue their murderous carnage across the galaxy... So without further ado, heres the models them selves The Bloodtear http://img411.imageshack.us/img411/4139/nightlords035.jpg http://img17.imageshack.us/img17/1354/nightlords039.jpg Claw squad 1 http://img524.imageshack.us/img524/3142/nightlords041.jpg http://img255.imageshack.us/img255/4364/nightlords042.jpg Claw squad 1.5 http://img708.imageshack.us/img708/3452/nightlords043.jpg http://img96.imageshack.us/img96/22/nightlords044.jpg Rhino http://img508.imageshack.us/img508/8100/nightlords036.jpg Scouts http://img705.imageshack.us/img705/145/nightlords045.jpg Assult squad http://img338.imageshack.us/img338/915/nightlords046.jpg http://img339.imageshack.us/img339/8347/nightlords047.jpg Raptors http://img560.imageshack.us/img560/3848/nightlords037.jpg http://img405.imageshack.us/img405/4371/nightlords038.jpg And tester Talon http://img547.imageshack.us/img547/645/nightlords048.jpg So there you go C&C more then welcome :mellow: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/219509-night-lords-former-12th-company/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Apostle Thirst Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 Your Chaos Lord's grin made me grin :D Your Raptor Champion... Your basing for him is terrible. It would have been so much better if you had left him as you got him, basing wise, although the painting is superb, so :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/219509-night-lords-former-12th-company/#findComment-2618405 Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would have been so much better if you had left him as you got him, basing wise, although the painting is superb, so :( Ah yeah, about that. When I got the model it was far too foward, a slight touch caused it to snap, so instead of attempting the impossible I glued the flames to his jump pack. :P But thanks anyway Edit: Ok, so this is Master Horrocks, Lord Talon. He will be leading my Talon unit (Sternguard) http://img814.imageshack.us/img814/6030/nightlords040.jpg And this is The Obsolete Optic, I prefer the old tanks to the newer ones http://img94.imageshack.us/img94/5020/nightlords025.jpg So as usual, what do you think?

Finished two Talons http://img138.imageshack.us/img138/6356/nightlords049.jpg The Talons were made using the Legion of the damned with additions (heads, guns, back packs) and all Imperial symbols removed. The extended gun idea, was shamefully stolen off Dan the deamon http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/index.p...2506&st=325 (somewhere in there) Closer pics of Raptors (yet to be based) http://img411.imageshack.us/img411/5848/nightlords050.jpg http://img812.imageshack.us/img812/7323/nightlords051.jpg Front view of Rhino http://img268.imageshack.us/img268/7285/nightlords052.jpg Side view, with poor Cadian cruifixion http://img411.imageshack.us/img411/6933/nightlords053.jpg Assult marine showing fondness of banners http://img213.imageshack.us/img213/4937/nightlords054.jpg http://img140.imageshack.us/img140/1835/nightlords055.jpg Detail isn't shown well on the camera Almost accidental assult marine running http://img97.imageshack.us/img97/5479/nightlords056.jpg Special weapon guys http://img688.imageshack.us/img688/4802/nightlords057.jpg Side view of Macharius, with captured Ultramarine http://img832.imageshack.us/img832/4060/nightlords059.jpg And something small I made with some bitz I found A Plasma Generator http://img89.imageshack.us/img89/8113/nightlords058.jpg C&C always welcome Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/219509-night-lords-former-12th-company/#findComment-2621915 Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I got the model it was far too foward, a slight touch caused it to snap, so instead of attempting the impossible I glued the flames to his jump pack. :D But thanks anyway Oops, my bad. I think you should have attempted to attach his feet to the flames instead of the loincloth, but it's done now. As for other comments, I just noticed the lighting you did on the feet of the Raptors, after you mentioned that they had yet to be based. The lighting is well and truly amazing, that deserves far more than just this - :P - more like a bow or a hat being removed. I also noticed you exchanged their typical chainblades for power weapons, do you plan on running them as Vanguard? Or do they just count as a Close Combat Weapon?

Aw thanks, it wasn't much I juts drybrushed Blazing Orange on the under side of the feet. And yeah I use the BA codex, so my Raptors are Vanguard and they use power weapons Small update; two more Talons are done and I found out how to enlarge images, although picture quality is still bad http://img198.imageshack.us/img198/818/nightlords060.jpg http://img836.imageshack.us/img836/6360/nightlords061.jpg And a group pic (it's dark because their NL, honest) http://img840.imageshack.us/img840/8264/nightlords063.jpg Next in the pipe line are another Marine squad, Terrorists (Sang guard/ Honour guard) and home made Jetbikes (LandSpeeder) So C&C (if anyone else will be bothered :huh:) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/219509-night-lords-former-12th-company/#findComment-2629487 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nomus Sardauk Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 Awesome! I've always looked at the Chaos Marine models thinking if they went rogue during the heresy why don't they wear older marks of armor? At last Chaos marines with per-heresy armor, it's beautiful!

Munculus Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 Agreed I went with the idea of a mix and match skavenger kinda thing. I got the idea from the book "Soul Hunter".

Bewlay Posted January 26, 2011 Author Share Posted January 26, 2011 Cheers for the comments, I am going for the whole Pix 'n Mix armour types.

Bewlay Posted January 30, 2011 Author Share Posted January 30, 2011 Double post, sorry. Now I don't know whether this should go in the WiP section, so if the mods feel thats appropriate then fine. I've aquired some Flayed Ones talons and with them I plan to make some Death Company stand ins. Heres the first model, sorry about the excessive amout of Blu tac, the damn thing doesn't wnt to stick :blink: http://img444.imageshack.us/img444/7571/nightlords065.jpg http://img11.imageshack.us/img11/9839/nightlords066.jpg http://img716.imageshack.us/img716/2172/nightlords064.jpg I don't know whether to have the other arm behind him or in front. So C&C ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/219509-night-lords-former-12th-company/#findComment-2640368 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Apostle Thirst Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 Is the other arm going to be the same way? If so... I'd reccomend the arms not dragging behind, but curled beside the torso, like a snake waiting to strike.

Bewlay Posted January 31, 2011 Author Share Posted January 31, 2011 I've not yet decided on how I want the position I want to make it so he's running forwards, but I'm still working on it. In the mean time, due to a recent advance in money :lol: I've began ideas for my Jetbike /Land speeder count as. A little off topic, but I know my NL's arn't great (I prefer to say mediocre) however check out these! http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/index.p...howtopic=221157 Oh well we can dream :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/219509-night-lords-former-12th-company/#findComment-2641591 Share on other sites More sharing options...
