Nice N.L. can't wait to see the contemptor.

[Augustus b'Raass]

I'm so jealous of those raptors. Also: that bolt pistol! How did you do that?

[helterskelter]

@Pearson73. Sooon soon....

 

@Augustus b'Raass, my friend the bolt pistol is nothing at all, i ordered some drum mags from anvil industries, a snip and a shave later and they look alright on the bolt pistol that comes with the assault legionary kit. Pick up some box mags and chain glaives too

Huntsmaster build in progress

Oh those tusks are silly good looking.

[helterskelter]

@Flint13, why thankyou sister, all the better to gore traitors with!

 

@tarvick, my thanks, the torso is the now very old metal raptor champion, the tusks I did pinch from a metal chaos termie head

[helterskelter]

So I slapped some paint on him. Part done a meltagunner, be he isn't so cool and as such will pop in later

So I don't have conquest, but I have heard about this man catcher relic. Magnetised so I can swap the top part to make a Glaive.

parts included, multiple hacked arms, space wolf PA frost axe, and old techmarine servo arm attachment

You think of using the Wych Net-thing as part of the Man-Catcher? Might make for a decent addition.

[helterskelter]

@ slipstreams Suggestions on incorporation? I mean if its a case of attaching to his arm then that's easy enough to do, unless you had something more funky in mind?

[Slips]

I dunno maybe use two of them in a Venus Flytrap configuration attached to a forearm or in the place of an Axe Head?

very nice seeing new life in an old model

[helterskelter]

Hope all had a merry Fistmas!

@Daemonclaw: hell yeah, theres no point having the old dears collecting dust, with paint schemes i did as a 13/14 year old. refit and repurpose!

 

So Sandy Claws was most kind, and after all mirth and merriment ceased, i stayed up til 20 past one to begin the marathon, this is the product of about 4 hours on and off (festive doctor who interupted me, then an aborted attempt at going to sleep knowing he was sat downstairs). He is Beautiful. Pure and simple.

 

I give you the beginning: Konrad Curze, The Night Haunter, King of Terror!

Tears of joy. 

[helterskelter]

I have wept those same tears my friend. So clearly I'm stark raving mad to be posting while other greater Night Lords are doing so, but I was always taught it was rude not to share. Enjoy the progress, Vylas!

[Flint13]

Totally not going to paint him with pupils, right? :D

 

Looking lovely so far. Can't wait to see him done!

[deathspectersgt7]

Shaping up nicely.

[helterskelter]

Little black orbs of hate is all he is recieving! Thankyou Flint, I endevour to do my best, whilst still learning as i do so. Also buy him, i'd love to see versions of him from everyone who heeds the call

[Augustus b'Raass]

Dude you're doing him awesome, awesome justice! Keep sharing the love :tu:

[Pearson73]

Looking good, can't wait to see the finished product.

[Atia]

he looks good so far, nice work on the head HS :P

[Slips]

You have the eyes of the Eight and its prospects on you (as well as their knives), brother.

 

Dat blue is amazeballs though. I think I like your matte blue over forgeworlds metallic midnight, personally.

 

Edit: anyone else notice that his collar kinda looks like a pshychic hood in the vein of Mephistons?

Update time! But first to my fellow forumites!

@ augustus b'raass: My thanks for such high praise brother, I always appreciate your kind words

@ pearson73: more thanks, gonna take a while, but gonna be worth iy

@ atia: even more thanks, especially as I hate heads, I got so ridiculously frustrated doing it, then managed to fluke the result :D

@ slipstreams: my blades and meteor hammer await! Thanks, it's kind of an accidental blue, I pooped myself at the level of detail so made all the paints thin as hell. The first coat looked like I was doing him in water colours! 3 coats regal blue, babad shade, 50/50 regal/ice highlight, asurmen blue to blend, plus etherium blue light drybrush to finish is what I used. And his hood is awesome. Bat wings of course.

[helterskelter]

Right murderers and murderesses! Little update. All his metals on the body done! Still got his little sand timer brooch to do, but what I was able to do was stick him on his base. Which means no falling over and losing the predator talons.

Also corpses, i need a solar auxilia scheme thats different enough from the blue but not black like FW have painted up. Hope you like where i'm trying to go with the raw flesh/exposed muscle
