Fire Golem, haha, there's me banging on attention to detail and I overlook that arm. It is supposed to be bionic but it needs some more detailing. The helm is from the gw Iron Warrior upgrade set.

 

Marshal, I'm not a fan of the chest pieces personally. As I am running the Night Lord rite of war terror squads are my only troop choice so I don't really need to distinguish them from Tac squads. Glad you've gone VIIIth Legion, get some models up.

 

Slips, that's what I was going for :)

Just been through all the pages. I love your Night Lords. I can see them being sent to a reluctant world to bring into compliamce. Walking up to the world's leader, with the skulls of vanquished Kings on their belts, as a reminder of their choice.

 

I also like Brutus. He has a different kind of terror to his brothers. Not the fear of a knife in the dark and long slow tourture as your skin is removed. Rather the fear of watching him amble slowly and casually down the corridor towards you. Knowing that he is going to punch your head off of your shoulders and there is nothing you can do about it.

I have to echo the others. I am loving your Night Lords.

I haven't done much or any conversion work with mine, and I keep my bases quite empty (I think basing is the weakest part of my models), but this is definitely giving me inspiration :)

 

Keep on truckin' good sir!

Yep that's the kit. A good kit that is. Do you think I could get away with the horns, or to chaos-y...

 

Little update, Im off to spend time with my daughter (her second birthday) on Friday, but after I have a few days off so im thinking of throwing some paint at the Consol and his two body guards and the Contemptor.

So thought it would be best to keep my 30k WIPS here were there are people who understand the pain of choosing a Legion.

With the new Delegatus I thought it would be the perfect chance to try and build a small force, and sorting through my bits box I found some Night Lord stuff, so decided to go with a terror squad, volkite heavy, list. Reading the background for Skorr, the Alpha Legion Delegatus, I like the idea of a marine emissary, so thought I would run with that. My Delegatus and his bodyguard will be in ceremonial gear, and I wanted the delegation to carry an air of arrogance, they don't want a peaceful compliance, they want an excuse for war, and of course while they hold thier enemies attention, the rest of the Night a Lords infiltrate, ready to kill.

The Delegatus is int the middle, I know he can't take an iron halo but I wanted to help distinguish him from the bodyguard, and give an air of imperial authority, which is also why he has the Gladius on his hip, I thought it could be symbol of imperial power. Also, if the force gets larger he can upgrade to a Praetor, his rapier, which is hard to see, but it's the one from the WFB vampire Lord with one wing, could easily be a paragon blade. He needs a third bodyguard, just need to grab a SoH banner from somewhere.

 

These are amazing!!

Flint and Slips, yeah there's something about the dark sons of the Imperium ripping apart the Emperors Angels.

 

Xin, hope the wait was worth it!

 

 

I spent last week playing Dragon Age Inquisition and spending some time with my Inq28 stuff which has been a refreshing change, the lack of restrictions and focus on details really helps get the creative juices flowing.

 

So here is the sgt of second claw.

2nd Claw sergeant looks badass! 

Thanks guys.

 

So on my way back from my weekend awy I dropped into the British Library to check out the Magna Carta exhibit.mthere was some great manuscripts with fantastic pictures of Knights, and a sword with an inscription like the Imperial Fist command, Templar, religious fanatics, Word Bearers. Then this happened.

Bit rough, conversion is off but was rushed, and didn't really finish the paint job, but I like the grey.

Thanks guys.

I've wanted to do Raven Guard like this for a while except with more smoke effects :P

 

Damn does that look awesome; the single red flame really draws the eye.

Thanks, while painting the spartan scheme felt right for a Legion with a religious undertone.

When my 1000 points of Night Lords are done I may do a Word Bearer drop assault army (jump infantry can deep strike right? Really need to read the rules!). Grey for troops, red for elite (what could the Gal Vorbak use to deep strike?). Black and red marking can indicate those picked out for the Chaplancy/to be inducted in the inner circle.

The warrior monks, making war with a shock and awe orbital assault, mirrors what the Space Marine chapters will become, which is brilliant seeing as they are the arch traitors.

The Gal Vorbak come with Deep Strike as part of the package :D I guess they just pop a gap in reality and arrive through the rend, what with being holy Daemon knights.

 

Your posing conveys so much calculated violence and brutality! Keep up the great work!

Kurama, I am. Or Will. Alongside the Night Lords. I see the Word Bearers being a long term project.

 

LetsYouDown, they can? :cuss yeah. Orbital Assault allows TDA to deep strike too. Imagine Gal Vorbak and Catraphracti popping up in the middle of your lines. While Drop Pods and assault marines rai down on you :D

You can pick up an Anvillus Dreadhought for them if you want to be really brutal. Put a Forge Lord with Rad Grenades and the Chaplain in the squad, and give them a few Power Mauls. They have a S7 Rending Charge, with -1 T to instagib T4 and 5(?) Attacks each which reroll misses. Bring that down first turn and watch people weep.

Is that the Gal Vorbak? That sounds awesome. I was going to do a TDA chaplain. Would that still work?

It would do, yes, but with TDA taking up 2 spaces you'd be forced to choose between one more Gal Vorbak or the Rad Grenade Forge Lord. 

 

It's expensive however; around 800pts of Deathstar, but quite hilarious to see people rearrange their plans as 10 Gal Vorbak appear in the middle of the lines and turn units, even Terminators into a red mist with relative ease. 

Gizur, thanks dude, your Word Bearers are one of two that keep the Word burning strong within me (in other words, your guys make me paint to paint more)

 

Hesh, 800pts for moustache twirling and manic laughing sounds worth it!

 

So these are not new, and have been shown else where on the forum but they have a lace here now I suppose
