Black_out Posted February 16, 2015 Author Share Posted February 16, 2015 Alright Black_Out, these are some really badass Night Lords. Now, lets see those 5 Night Raptors! ;) I've gotten started on them, pics will be forthcoming after I finish the base colors!

Psykic_scribe Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 Looking forward to the raptors. Back on the topic of magnets: Being metal cylinders with low friction, the heavier weapons may have a habit of rotating and aiming at the hero's toes. My solution to stopping this is to include a wire pin alongside the magnet, gluing only one end. Your choice on whether to put the pin on the body or weapon - if on the weapon, you need more pins, but this means that lighter weapons can be added without needing a pin.

Black_out Posted February 17, 2015 Author Share Posted February 17, 2015 Finished up the Night Raptors as my challenge from @GrandMagnus! With camera flash: http://i1227.photobucket.com/albums/ee424/tom-asaurusrex/IMG_1704_zpsq1onj301.jpg http://i1227.photobucket.com/albums/ee424/tom-asaurusrex/IMG_1705_zpsudge3zme.jpg http://i1227.photobucket.com/albums/ee424/tom-asaurusrex/IMG_1706_zpsuapgr7af.jpg http://i1227.photobucket.com/albums/ee424/tom-asaurusrex/IMG_1707_zpsnkubn6ha.jpg And without flash. I actually prefer these to show the darkness of the models. http://i1227.photobucket.com/albums/ee424/tom-asaurusrex/IMG_1708_zpsiqse98c0.jpg http://i1227.photobucket.com/albums/ee424/tom-asaurusrex/IMG_1709_zpsf4gkiv4s.jpg http://i1227.photobucket.com/albums/ee424/tom-asaurusrex/IMG_1710_zps5l0dkog1.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/302635-black_outs-wip-logcustodes-incoming/page/2/#findComment-3954519 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psykic_scribe Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 I am a great fan of raptors and especially these raptors. Great squad. I also prefer the photos without flash. But the shadows are very dark. How about using a large white card to act as a reflector from behind the camera, to get natural light under the jet-packs, chests, etc. ?

I've been messing with so many lighting options trying to get the right contrast, I'll give your suggestions a shot when I take the next pics!

Flint13 Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 Having a white, sloping backdrop does indeed make photo taking and the subsequent photoshopping quite a bit less arduous. The raptors are looking awesome buddy! Keep up the great work.

GrandMagnus Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 Awesome, I really dont understand the people complaining about Sevatar, I think the mini is excellent and cant wait to paint it myself one day.

Black_out Posted February 20, 2015 Author Share Posted February 20, 2015 I just ordered the old Sternguard Sergeant model with the power fist because I have the terrible urge to paint him as a severely battle damaged Howling Griffon. This is what I get for challenging GrandMagnus to paint them himself lol.

Black_out Posted February 21, 2015 Author Share Posted February 21, 2015 Hello, First Captain.... Primed up and first airbrush coats down for his armor!

Flint13 Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Hmm... Emperor's Child? I do really like the White Scar that FW went with too. But ultimately up to you. Which of the inferior seventeen other legions do you despise the most? (preferably who also won't clash with your Midnight-clad evening ensemble) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/302635-black_outs-wip-logcustodes-incoming/page/2/#findComment-3957961 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black_out Posted February 21, 2015 Author Share Posted February 21, 2015 I truly hate the Word Bearers (excepting Argel Tal and Lorgar himself). But Imperial Fists still appeal to me based on previous fluff written and considering I'm building them as a Pre-Istvaan army....ugh Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/302635-black_outs-wip-logcustodes-incoming/page/2/#findComment-3957966 Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrandMagnus Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 I was planning on painting an Imperial Fist on the base (Sevatar fought at Terra if I recall correctly?), because I think the yellow would be a nice contrast to the blue. So would a blood angel too. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/302635-black_outs-wip-logcustodes-incoming/page/2/#findComment-3957991 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black_out Posted March 4, 2015 Author Share Posted March 4, 2015 Ok so a few things, I decided, after much deliberation, to paint up Sevatars slain enemy to be from the Emperors Children. After reading Dark King I think it'll work perfectly (Flint called it lol). I'm also hoping beyond hope that I get my lazy bum to the store to grab a few paints to begin painting up Sevs base again!.....also hoping for a snow day tomorrow so I can get the majority ,if not all of him, finished since my last snow day was so productive and I finished all 5 Night Raptors.
