Augustus' 47th Co. Night Lords Showcase

[Flint13]

Looks awesome! Needs more boobs though.

I approve this message.

But seriously Augustus, you turn out work that is *scary* good (pun!) in such a short amount of time. Everything you have done so far is not only unique from every other Nightlords thread, but unique within your own company as well. Maintaining that level of dedication can't be easy, but I'm glad you started posting your progress. It's been a treat!

[helterskelter]

But shiny! :D nah I do like the way you do your gore, suits your models.

 

and miss flint, nice avatar conversion of the frozen lady. My two year old approves :p (when we watch it she keeos asking for the trolls bless her!) Also wheres your stuff gone? Why no paint?

[KrautScientist]

Whoa, awesome! This will actually be the second time that a Night Lord is named after me -- I hope Khorne doesn't find out, or I could be in trouble ;) Seriously, though, what an honour! As for naming models after fellow forumites, you might just want to check this out (still WIP)...

[MagicMan]

Just incase i look like a weirdo (more of one) this contemptor was the one with the impaled lady torso on it, right? 

 

Otherwise the boobs thing might come across completely random, haha.

Which would arguably make the remark even better

[Flint13]

HAH!

I just got it.

I look *damn* good in contemptor

Very accurate too. I'm normally pretty pissy right when I wake up

[Nomus Sardauk]

And the chains? (I'msorrypleasedon'thurtmeohdarkandgloriousqueennopleasenottheskinningrackohgodnooooo)

[Scribe]

Insane Contemptor.

[Noctus Cornix]

That's quite alright, man, really. Its meerly just my opinion, so take it with a grain of salt. In the end, its your model and if you like it, keep at it.

And who says glossy blood looks bad?

Man, I forgot you had a 'Hall of Hounour'-thread aswell. The servitors are a brilliant idea for cultists and the finished result is solid. The Contemptor really turned out great! Nice story about it being rediscovered aswell, I can really see how that guy have gone crazy (even though he can't have had the most balanced of minds before either).

[Flint13]

... I'm into S&M, obviously.

[Fracture]

God damn it man, stop being so productive with your awesome stuff. You're making me look bad. I also suggest Tamiya clear red, mix a bit of Tamiya smoke in there as well.

[Fracture]

Just noticed the extra page of comments where you talk about your gore. Ignore me, lol.

Thank you thank you! :-) I find it really easy to stay dedicated, because of this forum actually. It's really inspiring to see peers chrun out great models and have a place to share ideas, experience, and pictures of my models. And to get such great feedback.

But shiny! nah I do like the way you do your gore, suits your models.

Cheers man. Fresh gore should look a little shiny. I'm still working on the perfect recipe.

And FLint, I liked the avatar with the pink hair the best It suited how I perceive your character the best.

Thanks man. And I did read your comment about his last name Kraus being common in Germany. It means 'he who has curly hair'. While I find it a great coincidence that my last name happens to be a bastardization of the 16th century Hugenot word with the same meaning, I agree that a mean doctor should not be called 'Curly hair dude'. So I settled on k'Ra-ut. Is that ok with you?

Just incase i look like a weirdo (more of one) this contemptor was the one with the impaled lady torso on it, right?

Hahaha. He was, and we're all weirdos.

HAH!

Finally! Also noticed that he used to be from 28th company?

Insane Contemptor.

Good pun! ;-)

That's quite alright, man, really. Its meerly just my opinion, so take it with a grain of salt. In the end, its your model and if you like it, keep at it.

And who says glossy blood looks bad?

No worries. I am still experimenting with blood. Gore should look at least a little shiny.

Man, I forgot you had a 'Hall of Hounour'-thread aswell. The servitors are a brilliant idea for cultists and the finished result is solid. The Contemptor really turned out great! Nice story about it being rediscovered aswell, I can really see how that guy have gone crazy (even though he can't have had the most balanced of minds before either).

Haha. Yeah. I wonder why 28th company abandoned ship. And let him remain on board....

Nope. Can't do that. Everyone has their own pase, Mark! I just happen to have perfected my system, which happens to work for both vehicles and infantry. I've never worked so fast with such a limited palette. There's actually only four stages in the painting. Blues, Gold, Red, Skull. Blues has four easy airbrush stages and the lightning. Then gold has two. Red has three. Skulls Have three. With more and more flesh trophies, there's that, but really that's it.

Always glad to help and criticize (helpfully!).

I did notice the 28th origin. Banner bearer eh? Could he possibly be this guy?:

Guess I should get on painting Cilice pre-contemptor eh? ^_^

And as for why they left him all by himself? I could see it... my praetor, Jhadek Redcrow, has a really bad sense of humor...

Ooooooh yes! YES!!! That would be SO AWESOME!! That model looks so fricking awesome. I would be immensely honoured if you would retrospectively name him after my dread. And I really like how we have the same character from totally different periods in our armies. Such an awesome idea!!

 

Get this guy painted up. I am really looking forward to seeing him in midnight clad.

[Dread]

So I stumbled on this topic and have to say, nice work!! I used to play NL's and after they were, well their special rules disappeared, left out, I traded them. At the beginning of this year I started collecting them again in hopes that a supplement would arise.  Of course they could be fixed by  taking a lord on a bike or with a jump pack, depending on which and only the one, make raptors or bikers troop choices. There, I fixed it. Anyhow, love the work and will post mine as soon as they are released from secrecy here in my gaming group and when I get them painted.

[Flint13]

God, that's such a cool idea. Flint, that Night Lord is freaking rad. Those Sons of Horus make good Nostromans.

-Tarvik

Of course they do. Midnight clad is just like Prada. *Everyone* looks better in it

Well, aside from the whole "eternal night" thing for Nostromo, the two legions did come from fairly similar environments; sprawling hive-cities overflowing with vicious gangs in constant war with each other. It makes sense they'd bear a few similarities.

[Barabbas Sogalon]

Finally found out where you hide all the finished stuff.

 

The Contemptor is awesome! Damn good painting.

[Augustus b'Raass]

Yay! I just finished the first unit of my first ETL III vow: the raptors.

Granted, there's a champion in there that is actually meant for the second squad, but who cares.

Hope you enjoy! Feedback always welcome!

I totally agree. I'm thinking of buying some myself. And btw: Flint should finish this model. NOW. Actually she should make an ETL vow just for the standard bearer.

Thanks man! I'm happy to have inspirationally kicked your butt so you get your own done! Seriously: looking forward to your pics!

And here I was thinking it was all the flayed flesh dangling around their armour!

As someone versed in the 'arts' of sociology, I couldn't agree less with you. As a fellow space marine enthusiast, I couldn't agree more.

I like your'e style, Flint, I like your style. Handbags of flayed skin are so me.

-Tarvik

See? Exactly my point.

The Contemptor is awesome! Damn good painting.

Cheers mate! I always keep updated links in my sig, so the access should be easy!

[helterskelter]

Always impressed by your work bro!

[Combat_Vet]

Top notch work brother. It's always fun to see the art come to life like this.

[Barabbas Sogalon]

Fantastic work!

[Forté]

Excellent job there. And knowing where to stop with the blood has worked really well.
