Stuart Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 These guys are looking awesme, Red. I love the Champion in particular. For the mutated/possessed stuff, maybe have them be Loyalist Marines (Imperial Fists would stand out well) that the Night Lords captured and corrupted.

Red Skullz Posted February 18, 2012 Author Share Posted February 18, 2012 Thanks Stuart :D I thought about Imperial Fists in fact, but the miniatures I have available kinda dictates me towards traitors so I`m forging ahead with a Word Bearer proto fig. Stay tuned ;) R Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/246275-reds-retro-night-lords/page/2/#findComment-2995485 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Skullz Posted February 19, 2012 Author Share Posted February 19, 2012 Right, been a busy weekend but finally managed to get these gents ready, namely the Messoribus: http://i190.photobucket.com/albums/z199/tomkristianse/CSMHEAVYoblitsFIN.jpg As mentioned my obliterators take inspiration from Dan the Daemons Night Lord Obliterator weapon teams. For my variant version I`ve gone for arcane weaponry mixed with arcane tech as with the cloaking device thing going on there inspired from Captain Brown's Tau Painting Log. Mine are an inferior version but I quite like it, and it kinda goes in with the deep striking rule. The pic is not the best, I knows.. Up next will be the termie Chaos Lord and two mutated Word Bearers!

Red Skullz Posted February 26, 2012 Author Share Posted February 26, 2012 @Loken86: Thanks brother :( From a black basecoat it`s: - regal blue - devlan mud, 2-3 rounds The lightning effect is just a continuation, ultramarines blue - ice blue - fortress grey. What gives that metallic effect I think is the fact that I dullcoat my minis. Gives the palette a different end quality :no: @Ludovic: Thanks mate :D I think I will go back and do some touch-ups, but now I need to keep my head cool and get the army finished for a tournie in april :) With that said. I`ve got the termie lord, 8 word bearers and the dreadnought more or less ready, stay tuned ;) R Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/246275-reds-retro-night-lords/page/2/#findComment-3001639 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Skullz Posted February 26, 2012 Author Share Posted February 26, 2012 Aaaaand update time (finally!)! First 8/10 from as of yet unnamed Word Bearers squad: http://i190.photobucket.com/albums/z199/tomkristianse/CSMTROOPSwb8av10fin.jpg These are actually the first squad I made for this CSM army, but before I decided on NLs. I`ve really gone to town on the mutations, and I likes it! I also think I made them different enough paintwise than the NLs that they stand on their own but similar in styles that they go together side by side. I`ll take a better squad pic when the last two are done. Second, my dreadnought: http://i190.photobucket.com/albums/z199/tomkristianse/CSMELITEdreadFIN.jpg When I converted this guy I actually planned on a renegade Space Sharks force. So I tried to make a kinda sharky-mutated thingy. Ah well, it works this way also and he complements the Word Bearers squad nicely. Then it`s time for my termie Chaos Lord, Priscus, Lord of Harvest, Master of Sorrow, Prince of the Night: http://i190.photobucket.com/albums/z199/tomkristianse/CSMHQlordFIN.jpg Well...I`m happy with `im! Lastly a WiP of my next painting victim: http://i190.photobucket.com/albums/z199/tomkristianse/CSMHEAVYpred2.jpg Don`t worry, it`ll be NLs pred.

daemonclaw Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 nice ideas and man i would never hope to meet a dread like that, damn thing gives me the creeps :lol: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/246275-reds-retro-night-lords/page/2/#findComment-3001831 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kol Saresk Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 ;) :D :woot: :woot: :woot: :woot: :woot: I believe B&C Rules prevent me from typing in the sheer random scrapcode that correctly conveys how awesome that looks. On a side note, is Priscus a Count-as Yabadabadon? I ask because I can't clearly see his left hand but I think I saw another weapon. Still looks cool though. And that dread... Talk about goosebumps.

Red Skullz Posted February 26, 2012 Author Share Posted February 26, 2012 Thanks a lot brother, more appreciated than you`d think :P Priscus is not a count-as Abaddon even if I probably could run him as such :) That dread is what nightmares are made of ;) R Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/246275-reds-retro-night-lords/page/2/#findComment-3001993 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Skullz Posted December 1, 2012 Author Share Posted December 1, 2012 @Dan: You`ve thought/done the same? That`s cool :verymad: @Firepower: Haha, thanks :teehee: I wanted something that was more fighterplane than daemonic-metallic beast. That`s just to fit my vision of Night Lords, as in pure genes (but twisted minds) and a dislike of the mutated side of Chaos.
