Deadman Wade Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Greetings, fellow Chaos players! After a few years, I decided to rebuild/repaint my belowed traitorous maniacs (Night Lords were amongst my first models, so most of my army looks horrible). I would appreciate any tips and advises about improving my painting technique Night Lords 42nd Company Sorcerer Skelos"You think this is madness? The will of Ruinous Powers? No. We chose this. We know what we're doing. We know why we're attacking your rotten Imperium, killing innocents and burning worlds. We could stop doing it right now. However, we won't stop today. And not tommorow either."http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/640x480q90/812/aic5.jpgFirst Claw: kill-team "Eradicators" (obliterators counts-as)"Wind blows. Rain falls.

Forté Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 And there's the freehand on the rhinos. They would have to be target priorities. Just to get them off the table they look so good.

Brother Heinrich Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Are these the new models or your old models? Also one tiny nitpick on grammar, it should be "42nd" not "42th" for the company.

Iron Skull Mask Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Really nice minis, especially the rhinos! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/286491-night-lords-42nd-company/#findComment-3587459 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deadman Wade Posted February 6, 2014 Author Share Posted February 6, 2014 Are these the new models or your old models? Also one tiny nitpick on grammar, it should be "42nd" not "42th" for the company. Thanks, is there a way to change topic name? I painted them in 2011, except for new raptors parts, heavy chainsword and sorcerer's head (which I made after looking at your awesome terminator lord) :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/286491-night-lords-42nd-company/#findComment-3587727 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deadman Wade Posted February 7, 2014 Author Share Posted February 7, 2014 Thanks, guys! I wanted this helmet since reading FFG book with a pic of kneeling aspiring champion, and when I saw Brother Heinrich's lord, I just had to steal his idea.

Rune_Priest_Rhapsody Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 I just realized that your sorcerer is using the Space Hulk Blood Angels Librarian as it's base kit!! Nicely done!!

Deadman Wade Posted July 16, 2014 Author Share Posted July 16, 2014 Some test models, tell me what you guys think about this colour I find that heresy-era paint scheme isn't as striking as modern. It's more serious, but metal trim somehow gets lost, I think. I tried to add some blood and gore to my models, but completely forgot about battle damage, which I really wanted to try too. http://i1292.photobucket.com/albums/b567/HangmanWade/015_zps4a2f4386.jpg http://i1292.photobucket.com/albums/b567/HangmanWade/012_zps0ff49613.jpg http://i1292.photobucket.com/albums/b567/HangmanWade/014_zps892d5959.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/286491-night-lords-42nd-company/#findComment-3746311 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midnightmare Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 I prefer them with the gold trim also, but they look good none-the-less, esp the free hand. The blood looks a little 'thick', as in modelled thick. What did you use? The colouring looks spot on though :) Tamiya Clear Red?

Deadman Wade Posted July 16, 2014 Author Share Posted July 16, 2014 I took few pieces of wool and glued them, then painted with chaos black - rhinox hide - mix of khorne red and jokaero orange, then washed it with nuln oil and used varnish to make it look shiny (I don't know other ways how to make it look liquid). It's only second time I try doing it, so any suggestions are welcome :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/286491-night-lords-42nd-company/#findComment-3746423 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midnightmare Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 Sounds like a lot of hard work! Try out Tamiya Clear Red, it's boss needing just one (or two if you want some darker, coagulated blood on your chain blade!) Have a look at the following link (I am on my phone sorry):- http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/topic/182942-midnights-angels-pic-heavy/page-7 It is to my original Blood Angels thread, on the linked page there is a death Company dude with a bloody powerful (EDIT - POWERFIST, FIST!!!) the details of how I achieved it are a bit further down the page. There is also a further link to a Blood and Gore tutorial using Tamiya Clear Red, a technique I still use now. Hope that helps! EDIT - Spellcheck fail...

Deadman Wade Posted July 16, 2014 Author Share Posted July 16, 2014 Thanks, your Blood Angels are great. I'll definetely try using this Tamiya Red and pva glue next time!
