SalvationOfReason Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 Go with the 3rd option (far right). It looks dramatic, and isn't a color I've seen used on heresy-era Word Bearers yet. Also, for the plasma 'vet,' have you considered washing the gold kneepad with purple? I think you'll like the result ^^ Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/282556-savage-midnight-armored-up-an-rolling-heavy-for-etl-pg109/page/110/#findComment-4286521 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flint13 Posted March 7, 2016 Author Share Posted March 7, 2016 Morning guys! Just painted my first Night Lord in like six months for the March of Legions. It didn't feel right to not post him here. ++Audio-log, GH382. Sub-32: 1.768.008.M31++ Authorized, Gamma-Espilon-Tau-Rho-Epsilon-Kappa. Record Engage: Warden-General Harlon Locke - "Tell me of your time before you came to the legion. There must have been a time when you were... not yet disillusioned." Prisoner 6L914T13 - "But of course. Like all the other children, I wanted to grow up to become a mighty Astartes. I could crusade amongst the stars, bringing peace and Imperial enlightenment to the poor, lost colonies of humanity." HL - "And what happened, prisoner?" P6 - "The Thirteenth wasn't recruiting." http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/800x600q90/921/IOVjS3.jpg HL - "When did you know you had the gift?" P6 - "The Coven wytches wracked it out of me. Seven hundred sixty two hours and forty seven minutes until it manifested again. Stronger than they had expected too." HL - "Yes... we have records of your first... escape." P6 - "I think I bled at least three of them. They were looking forward to putting me through the rest of the induction process." http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/800x600q90/923/L4xULy.jpg HL - "But you survived the induction and were initiated into the Librarium." P6 - "That wasn't a question. It would have been a stupid one." HL - "No... it wasn't. But your gift. It was rare among the Covens of the Eighth, was it not?" P6 - "They said it was my Terran blood. Or the years of eating dung and irradiated rat carcasses. Honestly it could have gone either way." http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/800x600q90/923/OXTvug.jpg HL - "But you came to blows with some of the Coven. There were attempts on your life. They feared your power?" P6 - "Hardly. The Dreameater wytches had been scrying and divining for decades before I came to them. I was a young idiot." HL - "Yes, you were one of the last of the Terran induction. But why did you cause such a problem among the ranks?" P6 - "The Coven was old and set in its ways, but even in a Nostraman heart, there is still a sort of twisted pride. There were several ambitiously martial pre-cogs among them. They hated that I was too fast to for them to cheat their way to third blood." HL - "Your brothers made multiple attempts on your life because you beat some of them in sparring matchs? That sounds ludicrous." *** Log records pause of roughly twenty seconds*** P6 - "Are you positive you've actually read my file?" http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/800x600q90/922/ocgaBJ.jpg HL - "Prisoner, I haven't seen a single indication that you are even fit for a psych-stab certification, much less release. Can you give me any reason whatsoever not to have you disposed of to save the cost to my facility of keeping you alive?" P6 - "If I was released, I'd go back to murdering my worthless kin, or any bastard sorry enough to be standing between me and one of them at the time. Seeing as that's why I'm in these... charming accommodations... no. Not a single one." HL - "Yes, well, unfortunately for absolutely everyone involved besides yourself, the order comes from far higher in the Imperium's command structure than I am at liberty to disclose." P6 - "Or comprehend." HL - "Quite. Your trappings have been removed to a secure location two miles from the facility's south gate. You are to proceed straight to the designated location and await further instructions." P6 - "And the wytch-shackles?" HL - "They will be removed upon your departure from the South gate. Any attempt to harm a warden, any overtly hostile action or attempt to manifest your gifts before you reach said designated location, and you will immediately be put down by snipers. Am I clear? P6 - "As an Ultramarine's conscience." http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/xq90/923/sTYqYv.jpg ~Ko'satha Sar, 8th legion Librarius, Division Biomanticus Replies! B1 - Sadly, not until the Vth's March of Legions. Jubal was a super fun one off Hyenas - Thanks man! He came out surprisingly well for as quickly as I painted and assembled him.

Quixus Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 He's quite a comedic one, isn't he? I think dark humour is a quite fitting coping mechanism for a (possibly loyalist) Night Lord. Â The paintjob is great too.

Psykic_scribe Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 HL - Am I clear? P6 - "As an Ultramarine's conscience." Brilliant, Flint ! The model's not half bad either.

SalvationOfReason Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 Your humor is on point. Nicely written. Really like the use of gold on the more traditional NL parts, instead of the usual bone/ivory colors. Any more Night Lords planned in the forseeable future? Or just more (stellar) one-offs as the mood strikes?

Fire Golem Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 Love the writing. I adore the dark humour of the Night Lords.

Flint13 Posted March 7, 2016 Author Share Posted March 7, 2016 Evening guys. Thanks for all the lovely replies!  @ Haelim - Haha, thanks man. I had one good e-buddy compare my Night Lords fluff to Joe Abercrombie in space (ie the blackest black humor). Which is something I strive to replicate every time I write.  @ Lokko - Thanks! See above ^_^  @ Quixus - Possibly! Or possibly just a jerk who was lucky enough to have already been killing the right people :D  @ Psykic_Scribe - Thanks! I do my darndest.  @ Salvation - I wanted to get in some bronze practice with these Vallejo liquid metals I just picked up. Glad to hear they came out well. I wanted Ko to be a little "louder" as a Night Lord, thus the bronze details like the terror mask, the red spot colors and the black trim.  @ Fire golem - Me too! Glad to hear I strike the right notes. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/282556-savage-midnight-armored-up-an-rolling-heavy-for-etl-pg109/page/110/#findComment-4329253 Share on other sites More sharing options...

KrautScientist Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Well, look who's back ;) Â One the one hand, shame on you for not joining chaos this ETL! Â On the other hand, yay! World Eaters! ;) Â The tank's looking fine, especially the lush blue and the weathering. I can't help feeling that those blue panels in front would profit from some kind of XII numeral, though... And maybe some of those red, crossed chain decals would also work well on top of the tank, in order to break up the huge, white areas?
