Chickenleg Posted October 30, 2014 Author Share Posted October 30, 2014 Thanks for the support brothers! @Midnight Runner: Haha, well played. @Firepower: Some extra lightning never hurts but I don't want him to get too busy, these sculpts are superb.

Firepower Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 @Firepower: Some extra lightning never hurts but I don't want him to get too busy, these sculpts are superb. One on the gorget would be enough, I think. With designs like that, I always work by a simple principle: be able to see one from any angle, but only one. Of course that's not technically possible, but trying means you keep it minimal, while still getting enough on the model to catch the eye. That's how I did the designs on my Arrows, and I'm pretty happy with the result. The new guy is boss. :tu: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chickenleg Posted December 27, 2014 Author Share Posted December 27, 2014 Thanks for the comments brothers! So much NL action going on around here! @Firepower: One from any angle theory seems legit for markings etc but since lightning is not static things can go wild. @kizzdougs: It's crushed glass mixed with realistic water from secret weapon. My hobby time is extremely limited these days, I've managed to finish another miniature tho. Still waiting for Konrad Curze to arrive! I can't wait!

Flint13 Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 Very pretty cataphractii! I love the super rich blues. Would you mind explaining how you do the blackened metals? Those are gorgeous and *exactly* what I've been trying to learn recently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kizzdougs Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 Awesome dude! The blending on the armour is absolutely gorgeous! I definitely can't wait to see you have a go at Curze Ps. I bought some of the crushed glass and I'm in the process of using it to rebasing my entire Warriors of Chaos army. Very time consuming, but totally worth it. Thanks again for the info :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chickenleg Posted December 27, 2014 Author Share Posted December 27, 2014 Thanks for the comments! @hushrong: I'm checking the mailbox every day! Nothing! @Cpt.Semper: Haha, this work is not sanctioned. @Flint13: Thanks, it's leadbelcher washed with vallejo air negro black, highlighted with ironbreaker. If it's a sword etc another highlight of runefang steel is needed. @kizzdougs: Thanks! No problem, the glass snow is surprisingly easy to make! Send me a pm with the results.

hushrong Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 @hushrong: I'm checking the mailbox every day! Nothing! I know the feeling and now the suspense of you waiting for Curze is killing me haha. Why does tomorrow have to be a Sunday!? Or does the mail keep going where you're at? I also want to mail my marines to you mixed with in cash for some sweet paint jobs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chickenleg Posted December 29, 2014 Author Share Posted December 29, 2014 Thanks for the comments! @Flint13: Simple and easy! I try to keep all the recipes like that. @hushrong: No mail on weekends, no Curze for me. I accept commissions! So I've put together the second member of the command squad, the swordsman. The ancient terran sword was given to him as a sign of favor within the legion.

grand_master85 Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 Your work is amazing. Certainly helped inspire my own Night Lords! What paints do you use for the flayed skin? I'm back and forth on various colours, but I can't decide on how to do the flayed skin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piccolon Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 Awesome. Wish I could do models and paint half as good as you do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chickenleg Posted February 2, 2015 Author Share Posted February 2, 2015 Thanks for the support! @grand_master85: Cadian flesh mixed with random browns on a wet palette like doombull and dryad bark for basecoat. Highlights are bone and white. I hope this helps! @forte: Fooooorteeeeeeeee!! Finally a finished model! Swordsman http://i176.photobucket.com/albums/w194/darkman1111/30kNLswordsman.jpg I'm very happy with him, he is maybe my favorite. I also tried a small pictograph similar to those on Curze's cape seen in the forgeworld clip. It's a skull, probably a badge of honor within the legion. http://i176.photobucket.com/albums/w194/darkman1111/30kpictographcloseup.jpg C&C welcome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
