RazakelXIII Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 Those bikers look absolutely fantastic. I love the power weapon/lightning claw effects. Was about to compliment you on the freehand on Champ #2's head, then I took a look over at FW's site and realized it's actually part of the model. Amazing work either way, I'm just gonna have to get myself some of those Zerk heads now...

Midnightmare Posted October 9, 2015 Author Share Posted October 9, 2015 DarkApostle - thanks man, that was exactly the look I was going for :) Nemac - for vehicles, try this book, Forgeworld Masterclass book vol.1!. I really can't speak highly enough of it for weathering. Dos - I know what you mean, but my freehand sadly lacks! I tried some black 'radar' bleeps but it wasn't working, maybe some sort of lighter yellow? As I quite like the glow especially from tabletop level, and I don't want to detract from it. Raz - glad such a heretic as yourself approves :) unfortunately FW has to take credit for the head, as my freehand is sadly lacking! I do love that head, one of my faves in the whole of 40k (after their Worldeater Termi one with the khorne rune) Cheers all!

Iron-Daemon Forge Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 Both Black Legion biker squads look really cool Midnight runner. Nemac - for vehicles, try this book, Forgeworld Masterclass book vol.1!. I really can't speak highly enough of it for weathering. Agree, both this one & Vol2 are very helpful books & I strong suggest people buy these books. I'm hoping the Horus Heresy version will be release soon.

Midnightmare Posted October 9, 2015 Author Share Posted October 9, 2015 (edited) Thanks IP, your own bikes (and Brother Heinrich's) were a big inspiration into getting my own done. No progress on the Flesh Hounds bar base coat/wash/first highlight as yet, hopefully get some more done tonight. I have however built my Sorcerer for the Call, though he is in need of greenstuff work to Chaos up his bike, and some sort of Force Weapon. Basic kitbash with stuff I had lying about - http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh190/MidnightRunner81/DSC06813.jpg Hope you like. In other news I have just taken delivery of some 32mm base adapters from TT Adapters. I really can't speak more highly of the quality of these, the fit is perfect and the bevelled edges mirror the GW ones. With a little GS to fill the gap, here is the Vrosh Tattersoul still on his scenic base and a Possessed to compare with - http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh190/MidnightRunner81/DSC06816.jpg I am well impressed :) Edited October 9, 2015 by Midnight Runner Flint13, Eldrick Shadowblade, Pearson73 and 1 other 4 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/287471-%E2%80%A6%E2%80%A6by-my-hands-shall-the-false-emperor-fall/page/12/#findComment-4192564 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flint13 Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 It's gotta be a skilled sorceror who can read an incantation from a spellbook while riding over that kind of rough terrain. Looking awesome so far!

Dosjetka Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 Not particularly keen on the flamehand-thingy. Perhaps you could swap it out for the mentioned force weapon? The Possessed Marine looks great though, as do those base extentions :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/287471-%E2%80%A6%E2%80%A6by-my-hands-shall-the-false-emperor-fall/page/12/#findComment-4192624 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kierdale Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 Your bikers are absolutely fantastic. Not just the painting but the poses are excellent and seem so natural. The angles of arms, weapons, etc. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/287471-%E2%80%A6%E2%80%A6by-my-hands-shall-the-false-emperor-fall/page/12/#findComment-4192639 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midnightmare Posted October 9, 2015 Author Share Posted October 9, 2015 (edited) Flint - especially when said book is covering his screen......let's just say he is using the Force!! In fairness it was the only book I had as I am a bit of a witch hater :p Dos - I quite like it so it is going to stay, I am going to paint it a bright psychic-y blue/white so hopefully it will win you over. It is from the possessed sprue which is either very awesome or very lame depending on what you are looking at! DeathSpectre - ofc they can multi-task, he is actually making a pizza order on his vox, whilst keeping an eye on the witch hating Khorne bikers he is riding with as well :D Kierdale - thanks man, I really do try with the posing on my stuff. With the age of the bike kits you have too really!! In fairness the DV Ravenwing bikes are a good inspiration to anybody as they are well posed including the leaning of the bikes. My main inspiration was the pic of the Khorne bikers in the Daemonkin Codex, sooooooo awesome; you can just imagine them running down their foes in a frenzy of howling chainblades and tyre treads.

Iron-Daemon Forge Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 Midnight Runner - Will you be taken a photo of your whole Black Legion warband in the near future? Be intresting to see how the whole army look together. Also any plans on what units you'll be painting or adding after Call of Chaos?

Midnightmare Posted October 12, 2015 Author Share Posted October 12, 2015 (edited) Grizz, Altis, Noctus - many thanks for the positive comments, as ever they are very much appreciated :) DarkApostle7 - I have! Despite not doing an actual 'Daemonkin' army per say, I have enjoyed the fluff and short stories in the Codex; Khorne and his devotees have always been my favorite. Again, thanks for the positive comment :) Insane Psychopath - atm mate I haven't really got enough to call it an army as all I have painted are Urkrathos and his Juggernaut, my Daemon Prince The Fell Reaver and the two bike squads. Oh, and one CSM!! :D Don't worry though, I will be sticking with the Black Legion and their Daemonic allies for a while yet as I want the army to be a painted army. After the Flesh Hounds and Sorcerer from the Call, I will finish my CSM/Chosen squad and paint my Berzerkers, as well as their (Subtle Discord pimped) Rhinos. Once these are done, which will provide me with a decent painted backbone, I will move through my current list which consists of a Soul Grinder, the Possessed and a 'Big D' Bloodthirster and a Balrog/Bloodthirster conversion (in no particular order!) Incidently, my big treat that I am most looking forward to is painting the Warmaster himself, and a unit of FW Khorne Terminators with their Land Raider Spartan ride. But I am not letting myself do them until I have a lot more done.....maybe ;) Edited October 12, 2015 by Midnight Runner Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/287471-%E2%80%A6%E2%80%A6by-my-hands-shall-the-false-emperor-fall/page/12/#findComment-4194426 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thousand Eyes Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 Looking forward to seeing that army photo when it comes together and all. OF course until then we have the joy of watching it all come together. Too many people are tempting me with there blogs lately, this being one of them. Bravo. Regarding the sorcerer on the bike I am in two minds about the flame hand. It could look amazing with the paint job on it, but as it stands the force weapon would look nicer. Tricky stuff.

Midnightmare Posted November 1, 2015 Author Share Posted November 1, 2015 (edited) ....because the Hounds of Abaddon need actual hounds. Red, daemonic, angry hounds; so it is time to unleash the Flesh Hounds of Khorne - http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh190/MidnightRunner81/Mobile%20Uploads/DSC068602.jpg http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh190/MidnightRunner81/Mobile%20Uploads/DSC068612.jpg http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh190/MidnightRunner81/Mobile%20Uploads/DSC068622.jpg Space Wolf helm nod to the classic Mark Gibbons artwork - http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh190/MidnightRunner81/Mobile%20Uploads/FleshHound.jpg Hope you like! Considering I didn't really like the models, they were great fun to paint as I haven't painted 'proper' Daemons in years. Next up, got a few nightshifts to do then I will begin on the Sorcerer :) @ Thousand Eyes - hopefully I will win you over, I am looking forward to doing him (he now has a few spikes and a Spell Familiar). Glad you are enjoying the log, when I have a few more units done we will do an army shot, as I love them as much as the next Chaos Lord :D Edited November 1, 2015 by Midnight Runner Iron-Daemon Forge, Dosjetka, Biohazard and 1 other 4 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/287471-%E2%80%A6%E2%80%A6by-my-hands-shall-the-false-emperor-fall/page/12/#findComment-4212950 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iron-Daemon Forge Posted November 10, 2015 Share Posted November 10, 2015 How the Black Legion getting on for the 40k double tournament that Warhammer World? As said before, you need to get some photos during the event & of the display. If you've not been to the updated Warhammer World - pretty much I still can not get over how cool the Chaos vs Ultramarine display is. There a lot there & I'm always spotting something new & getting idea for my own Iron Warriors.

Really looking forward to it and I *should* teaming up with my brothers Iron Warriors something which you should appreciate (he is franticly trying to get some of his own stuff done) Again, cheers all comments help keep me motivated B) For army shots you will have to wait for the BB shots with my IW ally ;) Edited November 11, 2015 by Midnight Runner Thousand Eyes and DarkApostle7 2 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/287471-%E2%80%A6%E2%80%A6by-my-hands-shall-the-false-emperor-fall/page/12/#findComment-4222019 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midnightmare Posted November 22, 2015 Author Share Posted November 22, 2015 Guess who won best HQ at Warhammer World Battle Brothers this weekend....... http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh190/MidnightRunner81/Mobile%20Uploads/DSC070142.jpg Had such an excellent time and very humbled to receive that award, and we also made the cut for best army which we are equally pleased about!! Cheers to all who voted for our stuff and well done to the deserved Ultramarine/Ad Mech winners, such a cool army B) We had an excellent time with some epic games with some really great opponents!! I will post some pictures of the event when I get a chance to, but for now all you need to know is the bad guys win, Cerstes Minor burns, Chaos reigns.......mwhahahahaaaa Dosjetka, Flint13, AdamR and 9 others 12 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/287471-%E2%80%A6%E2%80%A6by-my-hands-shall-the-false-emperor-fall/page/12/#findComment-4232233 Share on other sites More sharing options...
