Night Lords 101st company - 1st Legion Link


Aeternus

Recommended Posts

Well. Update time, but not so good this time. Run into a complication with the felblade - the blue on the turret is very much noticeably different from the blue I've got on the body, and I don't know how to change it. As far as I remember, I've used the same method. Oh well :/

 

Other than that, recruited a couple more Terrans for the cause, and been working on the store Word Bearer Chaplain. 

 

As always, CnC welcome, and appreciated.

Ooooooook.

 

Been a while since the last update. Unfortunately, not actually done much since the last update.

 

Finished most of the main body of the Fellblade, with an example picture of the sides, just got details to go :D

Done some more work on the Chaplain...but forgot to take a picture,

Started painting some WE : Go check out 'Do not go gentle into that good night...' if you're interested. Very different from NL, I assure you (will post a single pic here)

And found my new absolute fave paint. The FW airbrush NL blue. One coat over a kantor blue basecoat gives a lovely metallic almost colour. Speaking of which, here's an example on a plasma gunner I'm painting up :)

 

Will hopefully have more concrete stuff by next update

Cheers Jud and Kriegs :D

 

Forgot to update this threat, been messing around in the other posts. Still, here's what I was up to...

 

I give you, Skinwolf

Ain't she a beauty terror! 

Hope to update this thread more tonight with some BaC marines, until then feel free to give CnC!

Yeeaaaaahhhh. This isn't tonight, so I kinda failed there. However! well, as always, I bring some more VIII legion goodness ;)

 

My first complete seeker (apart from base) - those of you hanging out in the Casual hobby challenge might recognize him ;)

 

Some progress on Termies - new method of painting lightning claws

 

A couple of night raptors - I tried a different method of getting the blue armor, cut out of the two paint layers I use, reckon it actually works as well, if not better (compare to termies)

Progress on a hq of mine - the tiny little lettering on the chest says NOX...I couldn't fit the whole saying on

Cheers Krieg and Charlo :) While he will be running with the raptors, he's actually my legion champion! Now -4 to fear is brilliant...if only fear was effective...

 

Anyways, enough sobbing about how bad that rule has worked for me, and onto updates!

 

Just about finalised a scheme for my destroyers, however this being the sgt, the others will have hazard stripes on leg rather than symbol. Also tried my hand at (basically) my first OSL lighting effect, think it came out alright. (going for the whole, firing psychic powers from hand thing) Did also just sort out the rest of my plasmas in one big batch, unsure how to do the weird combi plasmas though. They look *really* like fusion blasters.

 

Will also update this evening to show what happened to poor Sevatar...

As always, looking great!

I love the lighting effects on the plasmaguns and psyker.

Gives the impression of pent up energy.

 

I like that the skull image on his helmet doesn't look like a complete skull it really does look like it's just painted on by the marine.

I actually found the plasmaguns much much more easier than expected. Just kinda ran with my lightning scheme, but more space let me build it up a bit more :) cheers man 

 

And yeah, I prefer the thought that all the marines customise their armor themselves, so paint their own terror markings and skulls. Also means I have justification for making it rough ;)

 

Come up with a colour scheme that I think is suitable for Volkite, and vaguely different from the plasma (my original volkites were blue...)

Time for the boxing day update!

 

Been working on a squad of breachers, comprised of the parts I could find from my box. Luckily I finished them just before I ran off.

Also, got a small diorama I'm working on for the store, this'll probably be the only picture I post on it, due to the xenos in it.

Very nice work!

Love what you have done with the Shields OP although I am not too sure on the corpse with the leg nailed to the shield.

 

Breachers look awesome, perfect look for night lords. Are the shields from fantasy vampire counts sets?

 

It is the Von Carstein Upgrade kit

Cheers all :) Was happy with the breachers for my attempt at what I had lying around. I agree with Cthonia though, sorting that one out. 

 

No pictures this time, since my camera has decided to go faulty...however in the upcoming days you'll see marines, a few more marines, um...as well as marines? Lots of marines :P 

(New terror squad, sgt, painting, etc (attempt at metallic blue))

 

And, something arrived over the break which may help with some of the larger (everything) models!

So...keep your eyes peeled, and the lords of the night will come!

Cheers Helter smile.png was a pain to get it right, but gone over with some more metallic highlights, and if I dare say so, it looks amazing. Finished up the majority of the metal and cloak now, so the weekend will be the base and head. The head's gonna screw me over...there's a reason I stay with helmets.

Anyways...the original technicolour dreamcoat!

12400526_1045557248837559_40279394113471

just realised why fear tests are at -3...I mean he has 6 skinned faces on his cloak alone!

Edit, not sure if I should bloody it up at all or leave it dryed out...thoughts? Base is gonna be reasonably bloody with the butchered meat, but the model isn't looking too gory...unusually.

Thanks Jimbo and Krieg :) I wanted something to really set the destroyers apart from just black, and felt it suited them rather. 3 will have hazard stripes, while 2 will have the biochem symbol (finding hard to paint)

 

And yeah, with the cape I decided to go something other than the single colour flayed cloak everyone else does. I think it worked :D

 

So, here's my progress on a terror marine, an almost completed curze, and a start on a corpse (pitiful camera tho, so horrendous image)

 

(and yes that is a double volkite...sniper charger!)

Yeah...those pictures were bad. Anyways. Curze is nearing completion now, and my I like him. Onto the point though

 

Would anyone be interested in a tutorial on how I do my lightning? Having looked over other versions its slightly different - but if no one wants one I'll keep it to myself ;)
