Flint13 Posted December 10, 2013 Author Share Posted December 10, 2013 @ Wicced - I know what you mean with the engravings. I really wanted that torso with the psychic hood, though. I felt out of all of them, the one with EXTERMINATE was most apropos for a Nightlord ^_^ @ DeathSpecter - Your wish, my will and all that... http://i1290.photobucket.com/albums/b533/Flint1324/PB090007_zpsa9c3cd7e.jpg http://i1290.photobucket.com/albums/b533/Flint1324/PB090001_zps6d5abda4.jpg I was honestly going for a one eyed skull. It came out like some cutesy puppy daemon...

Kol Saresk Posted December 10, 2013 Share Posted December 10, 2013 Think of it like the Cutsey Killer Bunny. Just because it looks cute doesn't mean it ain't got claws.

Knight of the Raven Posted December 10, 2013 Share Posted December 10, 2013 The Legion champion's original model already looked good, but you made it look better!

Nomus Sardauk Posted December 10, 2013 Share Posted December 10, 2013 I like your Librarian but I agree with the others, he does like a bit to loyalist, I'd suggest maybe making a few amendments to re-affirm his "Night Lord-iness". First off I'd suggest maybe green stuffing a pair of bat wings over those gold bars on the chestplate and probably alter or remove and replace the GK symbol (file off the sword?). Lastly I'd suggest maybe painting a sort of skull design on his faceplate to de-loyalise it, like Calderon did for his NL.

Flint13 Posted December 10, 2013 Author Share Posted December 10, 2013 Hi folks, its that time again! Lets get some replies going. @ Kol - Hah! Yeah... daemonic horns... bunny ears same diff ^_^ Still, I can't believe how hilarious wrong (right?) that 60 second freehand symbol went. @ Deathspecter - Wow, that much eh? @ Knight of the Raven - Well I had to do something with it... that goofy overhand grip on the sword looks like he's trying to open a can of soup with his weapon. I'm glad you think he looks better my way. @ Sanguinius - Welcome, and thanks! Is the sword and book a Grey Knight thing? I thought it was a psycher/librarius kinda deal. *Whoops* I wish I could green stuff that well, but wings are a little ways off. I think you may like my next update though. @ Aquilanus - Hey now, don't be bringing that wacky brit humo(u)r in here And the business for today. My first try at a terror marking in my "rebooted" legion: http://i1290.photobucket.com/albums/b533/Flint1324/PB090011_zpsfa17527e.jpg http://i1290.photobucket.com/albums/b533/Flint1324/PB090012_zps31427866.jpg The fact it works out to be pre-heresy Thousand Sons colors was just a happy accident. And my newest Librarian. I'm thinking this one will be a Biomancer. http://i1290.photobucket.com/albums/b533/Flint1324/PB090002_zpsbc9d9a90.jpg http://i1290.photobucket.com/albums/b533/Flint1324/PB090010_zpsad6deec5.jpg Stoic! http://i1290.photobucket.com/albums/b533/Flint1324/PB090006_zpscbaef495.jpg Hmm... the little slice through the skull's right eye didn't show up too hot. http://i1290.photobucket.com/albums/b533/Flint1324/PB090005_zpsb2e3728a.jpg Terror markings on these helmets are hard ^_^ http://i1290.photobucket.com/albums/b533/Flint1324/PB090007_zpsb9584cfe.jpg More skulls! Even the staunchest WYSIWYG conformist can argue I haven't appropriately modeled Trophies of Judgement when I break the Legion out http://i1290.photobucket.com/albums/b533/Flint1324/PB090003_zps842353fc.jpg Hatred. It keeps the Nightlords going Anywho, feel free to let loose. I'm getting slowly better at this, which definitely nudges me to get more stuff done. Of course, not nearly as much as all the lovely incoming comments and helpful tips and suggestions. Thanks again guys!

deathspectersgt7 Posted December 10, 2013 Share Posted December 10, 2013 The terror markings look good as does the other libbie.I like when people free hand chapter symbols.

Nomus Sardauk Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 @ Sanguinius - Welcome, and thanks! Is the sword and book a Grey Knight thing? I thought it was a psycher/librarius kinda deal. *Whoops* I wish I could green stuff that well, but wings are a little ways off. I think you may like my next update though. Yeah the sword piercing the open tome symbol is the Grey Knights chapter emblem, not the kind of fellows the Night Lords would wish to associate themselves with! XD The terror markings on your Librarians look good but still look a tad too loyalist to me though that may be down to the helmet rather than the paint job. Unless they're suitably converted i find helmets with those knightly faceguards like on your Libbies just don't look right on "bad guys". The new Biomancer looks cool but something about him makes him seem... Plain? Compared to his predecessor. Kalyon had his tabard, cloak, staff and pose adding ornamentation and character to him whereas our new friend is kinda just stood there, perhaps a cloak and backpack icon would make him a bit more interesting. Sorry if it seems like I'm just putting you down and criticising everything but I'm only giving my opinion and trying to help you improve. :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/282556-savage-midnight-armored-up-an-rolling-heavy-for-etl-pg109/page/6/#findComment-3543283 Share on other sites More sharing options...
War Angel Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 The marine who you posted as your fiirst try at a terror marking. Did you buy the helm or GS the front plate?

Flint13 Posted December 11, 2013 Author Share Posted December 11, 2013 Evening folks! Figured I'd check in before bed. @ Deathspecter - Glad to hear it! @ Sanguinius - Not a problem! I appreciate the helpful criticism. You can tell how big of a Grey Knights fan I am ^_^ Alrighty, I'll get on seeing what I can do to shave the little book/sword symbols and replace them with something more interesting. And I'm pretty sure I can drum up a new cloak or something "blingy" for my second libriarian. @ War Angel - Awesome screen name! And the helm came from a Black Templars upgrade sprue, I believe.

Kol Saresk Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 Actually since this is a Heresy army and the Grey Knights won't really exist until after the Heresy, the book and sword could mean anything. Like the Ultramarines' red helmet for example. ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/282556-savage-midnight-armored-up-an-rolling-heavy-for-etl-pg109/page/6/#findComment-3543391 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wicced Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 still looking good i like the new librarian/biomancer, but i second that he looks a little plain compared to his brother. I think it's mostly his pose, because he's just standing there. His awesome sword should be a focus for the viewer, but the relaxed pose kinda counteracts that. (hope i'm making sense here!) still not diggin' the Grey Knight parts, they need more converting like SanguiniusReborn mentioned. and i see you really like top knots NOW, where's that lightning? *claw scraping sounds* p.s.: one of those pesky mold lines managed to sneak onto his backpack...

Flint13 Posted December 11, 2013 Author Share Posted December 11, 2013 Morning Folks! @ Hushrong - I do my best when inspiration strikes. Thanks! @ etzchayim - Haha, good to hear. I may have stolen a tip or two from your Ultras and just darkened it a bit @ Kol - definitely earn points for supporting my laziness *and* justifying it with fluff. I suppose they will have to come off eventually though. @ Wicced - Hey! Put. the. claws. down! His bottom left greave has a tiny lighting bolt. It's a little manic thou. I was running on 1 hour of sleep, so it didn't come out so hot Don't worry, I'm hard at work finding something to replace those goofy GK symbols. Probably a shaved skull And I make no apologies for my weird top-knot obsession. @ Forte - They're malfunctioning... see how skitzy that one on his greave is? Also, woo! 10 followers. That's double digits!
