Noctus Cornix Posted December 20, 2014 Author Share Posted December 20, 2014 Thanks, guys. :) Oh that is my favorite! There are so many awesome little details about him that I love. The disgusting, weeping eye sockets, the cleaver staff. Where is that raised hand from? I think it might be the coolest "librarian casting something" hand ever. The entire model, aside from the helmet and the cleaver head is from the Necrosius model from Forge World. That's including the raised hand, its just turned around from its intended position.

Noctus Cornix Posted December 20, 2014 Author Share Posted December 20, 2014 Really love those cleaved models. Great job on doing an alternative plague scheme Thanks, mate. Honestly that was one of the reasons that attracted me to the Cleaved in the first place. I didn't want 'just green'. So overused. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noctus Cornix Posted January 9, 2015 Author Share Posted January 9, 2015 Despair! The age of mortals is ending. Time drains away and the stars fade from the sky. The bitter spawn of night crawls from the darkness to possess the world. Fools take refuge in faith and madness for no other hiding place remains. The Realm of Chaos is begun. http://i915.photobucket.com/albums/ac352/Noctus-Cornix/20150109_151200_zps7c5518df.jpg http://i915.photobucket.com/albums/ac352/Noctus-Cornix/20150109_151218_zpse61b6938.jpg http://i915.photobucket.com/albums/ac352/Noctus-Cornix/20150109_151233_zpscd37e000.jpg http://i915.photobucket.com/albums/ac352/Noctus-Cornix/20150109_151350_zps1aa36d7a.jpg http://i915.photobucket.com/albums/ac352/Noctus-Cornix/20150109_151439_zpscb407246.jpg http://i915.photobucket.com/albums/ac352/Noctus-Cornix/20150109_151447_zps678a63d9.jpg http://i915.photobucket.com/albums/ac352/Noctus-Cornix/20150109_151544_zps134ea847.jpg Enjoy.

KBA Posted January 10, 2015 Share Posted January 10, 2015 Awesome! What washes are you using, Ruined King? PS why the name change? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noctus Cornix Posted January 10, 2015 Author Share Posted January 10, 2015 (edited) The only wash I use is Nuln Oil and I will swear by that little paint pot any day. As for the name? Well, I just got it fixed back. ;) Edited January 10, 2015 by Noctus Cornix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teetengee Posted January 10, 2015 Share Posted January 10, 2015 Could we have pics of the horrors against a different (darker) background, some of the details are a little hard to pick up on in these pics. That being said, I really like what I see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noctus Cornix Posted January 10, 2015 Author Share Posted January 10, 2015 Sure thing, man. I'll try to take some new pictures when I can. I've been trying to take different pictures to test out new ways. I had made a makeshift lightbox, but it apparently doesn't work very well :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teetengee Posted January 10, 2015 Share Posted January 10, 2015 I think it may have more to do with the light background and colors rather than the light box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Ambroz Posted January 10, 2015 Share Posted January 10, 2015 Love the fact that the horrors could fit right in with the plague bears, well done. They're both very well done, your painting has come a very long ways. I still think you have room for improvement though, especially on the weapons. Compared to the rest of the model the weapons look flat. Keep it up though Noctis :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noctus Cornix Posted January 13, 2015 Author Share Posted January 13, 2015 (edited) So, with more experimenting, I found a much better way to take photos of my models and get closer views of them. There's no nice stylish background, but ohwell. Before I forget, I had another wonderful order come in from Forge World with some lovely little treats, one in particular for my Word Bearers and one for my Daemons. What that is, you'll find out soon enough. Now then, for the update, yes? Some of you may recall I once painted a single Khorne Berzerker a long while Back. Well, I went back to that Khorne Berzerker, along with friendly comrade to go with him. As you all know, comments and criticism is always more than welcome. http://i915.photobucket.com/albums/ac352/Noctus-Cornix/20150112_224647_zps4b46c4c2.jpg http://i915.photobucket.com/albums/ac352/Noctus-Cornix/20150112_224656_zpsf91423d5.jpg http://i915.photobucket.com/albums/ac352/Noctus-Cornix/20150112_224709_zps7268e3f8.jpg http://i915.photobucket.com/albums/ac352/Noctus-Cornix/20150112_224730_zps3187ac17.jpg http://i915.photobucket.com/albums/ac352/Noctus-Cornix/20150112_224740_zpsd7beb7af.jpg http://i915.photobucket.com/albums/ac352/Noctus-Cornix/20150112_224753_zps1bdf6b48.jpg http://i915.photobucket.com/albums/ac352/Noctus-Cornix/20150112_224814_zps59983056.jpg http://i915.photobucket.com/albums/ac352/Noctus-Cornix/20150112_224834_zps3fa99def.jpg Love the fact that the horrors could fit right in with the plague bears, well done. They're both very well done, your painting has come a very long ways. I still think you have room for improvement though, especially on the weapons. Compared to the rest of the model the weapons look flat. Keep it up though Noctis Thanks man. Always glad to know I'm improving! I will be perfectly honest, I was being completely lazy with the Horror Champion's sword. At first, I was thinking about doing something that was a swirl of blues and purples, but in the end, I decided that I'd go with a simple gold as contrast to the horrific nature of the horrors. (see what I did there? ) As for the Plague Bearers, I know it seems rather simplistic, but I kind of wanted it to have a dull muted color without much grotesque nature to it. One thing I've been trying to go with for all of my Daemons is a contrast between the daemons and the weapons they wield. I like to imagine that daemons are of the insubstantial, pure amalgamations of nightmare made reality, flesh yet truly corporeal. The weapons they wield, however, are of a different nature. These weapons are crafted within Daemon Forges, blades, tools and armour fashioned from iron and warp to create something that was a true marriage of reality and the Immaterium. They are weapons to be wielded upon the battlefield as much as they are conduits, small anchors to allow the daemon spawn some leverage in the real world as a warp rift lets them spill into reality and the corporeal sacrifice runs dry. So, to that end, I wanted to make the weapons of the Daemons stand out against the beast itself, sort of a way to let that idea be presented in the model itself.

Candleshoes Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 (edited) Now THOSE are Khorne Beserkers... man the movement you convey in those minis is intense... *edit PS) What is your blood recipe? Is it the 'Blood for the Blood God' pot? Edited January 13, 2015 by Candleshoes Noctus Cornix 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyrannicide Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 Why are you not doing a full Khorne Bezerker army like now? Your painting has improved immensely and I think your distinct style and wash technique work well for red and brass. I've really enjoyed these two, man. Freaking seriously well done.

KrautScientist Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 Out of all the painted models you have shown us so far, those Berzerkers are easily my favourites! This is certainly due to my love for all things Khornate and World Eater-y, but it's also a fact that your way of painting lends yourself perfectly to these guys -- you should really think about a small kill team or detachment of World Eaters, you know.
