Chickenleg Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 Your NL look very good when seen together, each model is unique but they are still part of the unit. Also the pins! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kol Saresk Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 Wow. That's some mighty fine Cataphractii you have there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nhaunter Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 Fuuuu, will you have them enough :D And I thought that my 15 -20 old metal ones are maybe too much :D Joking aside your presentation of models is great, you really know how I have to admit that I am not a fan of Cataphractii version of TDA, it would be great if they update those old "bug" armors.

Flint13 Posted January 1, 2014 Author Share Posted January 1, 2014 Response time! @ Heinrich - Haha, yeah. I guess someone at forgeworld checks out my netflix list... @ Chickenleg - Thanks! I get bored painting a ton of the same thing. So I try to individualize each a bit to keep me going. @ Kol - Thanks! I've also got some indominus and tartaros scattered in there as well. @ nhaunter - I'm on the fence about Cataphractii TDA. I have a love affair going with any type of terminators (and topknots, but that's a different story) and I found I loved Cataphract plate just as much as the others when I saw the awesome one in Massacre painted in NL colors. Now the fun part... I've got 25 more terminators to assemble... 5 grey knights, 10 vanilla chaos and 10 wolf terminators all to be Nightlorded up for the full might of the Ironclad Midnight...

ChaptermasterDemon7 Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 Well damn. That is a force to be reckon with. I loved the quotes throughout the post as well. Makes me want to start doing it lol. Plus the painted model looks ace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brother Ambroz Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 My favorite FW helmet. Like Nhaunter, I'm not a huge fan of the cataphractii suit but he looks good never the less. You've got a lot of work ahead of you, good luck and get busy. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flint13 Posted January 2, 2014 Author Share Posted January 2, 2014 Oh wow! I love it when I update, then come back a little bit later and there are already half a dozen responses. Thanks guys I had a quick question, then I'll get some responses going. Ok, now that I've admitted to my terminator obsession, what is the consensus on my Tartaros lightning claw conversion? You can barely see them in the lower left corner of what I've taken to calling my "terminator wall" pic. One http://i1290.photobucket.com/albums/b533/Flint1324/PC010001_zps7795a835.jpg and two http://i1290.photobucket.com/albums/b533/Flint1324/PC010002_zps0b4d11ed.jpg and comparison with a normal-ish tartaros http://i1290.photobucket.com/albums/b533/Flint1324/PC010004_zps471ba7ee.jpg Unfortunately when I got them, they came with just left handed power fists and combi-bolters, so this was my way of getting a few without buying one of those religion-challengingly expensive upgrade packs. They are undeniably bulkier than the original variant, but I kinda like the more hulking profile. Thoughts? Replies! @ Chaptermasterdemon - You totally should! The Blood Guardians are looking badass. Some awesome quotes to help establish their personal acts of valor should be next on your to do list. @ Chickenleg - tell me about it, right? totally better than dat a$$ @ Tanith Ghost - I *love* Zhufor's helmet. Best terminator or terminator themed accessory to ever come out of forgeworld! But I feel you, I felt like I had to do something to spruce up the Cataphractii plate. To me, the vanilla Cataphract armor doesn't seem very "Nightlordy." It seems much more like something the Iron Warriors, Sons of Horus or the Imperial Fists would use. @ Chaplain - Totally better than a hangover, right? @ deathspectersgt - I'll do my darndest. I like painting terminators more than normal rank and file, at least. To me, they are so much more individual and interesting. @ Noserenda - Haha, I'll run it past a Mod if one happens to stop in. Thanks! And a thought occurs.... you're the same gent whose PH Alpha Legion Log I've been reading through the last couple of days. Great looking stuff there! @ forte - Well... yeah... I mean, it'd be a little weird if you stopped in and there were just Emperor's Children everywhere wouldn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brother Ambroz Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 I don't know about best terminator piece from FW Flint, I really love the Tyberos legs too. :P For the conversion, hmm it seems to work although they do seem a tad bit large for the tartaros body but that might just be my opinion.

BassWave Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 In my opinion, I feel that the left shoulder pad (viewer's left) seems tacked on. The other side looks great, and the converted arm smoothly transitions into the rest of the body. I think why the shoulder pad feels tacked on is because there is a large gap where one can see the unarmored shoulder. http://i1290.photobucket.com/albums/b533/Flint1324/PC010004_zps471ba7ee.jpg Also, the guy on the right has his shoulder lower than the guy on his left. To me the claws themselves are fine, I like the hulking look too. Its very intimidating, which I'm sure that Night Lord appreciates ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nhaunter Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 Well to me they look decent enough but I really like over the top stuff in 40k, my love for Chaos come from opportunity to convert and add stuff no matter how funny it may look on the first.

Flint13 Posted January 2, 2014 Author Share Posted January 2, 2014 Morning Folks! @ Deathspectersgt - Thanks! @ Kol - Yeah, that's part of what is bugging me, I think. I suppose I could just argue it's where they store the power cells for the claws @ Jasp - Haha, good to hear. I hear it takes a lot to impress a Deathguard. @ Vazzy - Doing my best with all the post holiday craziness. @ Tanith - I do like those legs... they have a nice pre-heresy vibe to them. The thing that bugs me is that they are a tiny bit smaller than "generic" GW terminator legs. @ Basswave - I think that may have been what is bugging me. I knew I wanted a "lopsided" look to the shoulder pads, like gladiator armor. I think I'll have to pull the pad off and shave down the shoulder a bit. @ nhaunter - Same here! I love the huge variations you can build into a Chaos Marine force. You can go for a really ramshackle force, or one rife with mutation, or one that is almost loyalist in appearance. I'm pretty sure that's what attracted me to the army in the first place... of course I *almost* ended up as a XX Legionnaire... @ Recon - Depends on if you meant the chain axe of the Cataphact chaplain, or the power axe of the Tartaros sgt, which would be the Cataphractii power axe sprue, or the Tartaros power axe sprue respectively. They both come in sprues of 10 for about $15 or so from FW. @ Barabbas - I do my best. If we're counting up un-built terminators as well, I've got fifty-six all told.

ChaptermasterDemon7 Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 To me, I love how you did the lighting claws on the terminators look awesome. But my love for the Night Lords and IW are major bias for me -chuckles- keep up the good work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
