why do we have to wait so long??? you're cruel and evil... naah, i'm just kiddin', the wait builds dramatic tension... or maybe it's just more conveniant for you...

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

Partially it's to be EVIL. ^_^

 

And partially because I need to get batteries tonight. :rolleyes:

[GeneralStukov]

Yea.. Show show show!!! *dies*

[DEADMAN]

Good stuff there. After looking at your stuff, I'm feeling like taking another crack at finishing my NL army.

 

Evil is fun. :rolleyes:

[GeneralStukov]

Yea.. I really should finish my Salamanders army.. I just have no drive.. the newer rules are out and its gonna cost me more to get them and thats money I dont have so I've pretty much taken the hobby to just painting and converting seperate works..

 

I'll get around to my Salamanders soon enough.. but stuff like converting my own nightmare model is getting to interesting to put down... so.. show ehm! heh

[Bloodwraith]

you're cruel and evil

 

Don't compliment him you fool, he's a night lord they aren't offended by that and if you show him you're agonizing he'll drag it out longer.

[Librarian- Melechor]

Those are some fine Night Lords, danek, beautiful job on them. I especially like the flesh, it screams (stuck in the warp) to me. Keep it up! :D

[Tubal]

More later. :cry:

[Tubal]

More good models, isn't ork blood red nowadays though?

[-][-Danek-][-]

I've heard that,but I believe Xenos blood should look like Xenos blood.

 

Therefore I stuck with a dark green. :cry:

[-][-Danek-][-]

More Chosen....

[Lord Ragnarok]

Yes!

Looking good as always Danek. Certainly a credit to the scary Night Lords.

[RamenNoodles]

Love the varying degrees of decayed flesh and i would like to see more of it

[space wolf]

those are PHENOMINAL! i only have one gripe, to me lord knighmare's legs to spindly in comparison to his torso...but thats a really small, knitpicky thing, they all look fantastic...glad to see someone playing knightlords.

[Chaplain Desmodus]

Scary faces! ^_^

[DCEET]

Just checking in to prove id had a look mate :D

 

Love the terror markings, I was gunna suggest a "punisher" skull for one of them but I see you already thought of that one.....

 

Like the eyes, personally I liked to original boltgun, but with the pale flesh they kinda got lost. All the pale flesh makes them look very vampiric in my opinion.

 

Also the sword on knightmare is a lil bit small in comparison ;) Just kidding, good job.

 

Id like to see what you can do with some raptors (with some conversion obviously), I think with terror markings they would look awesome.

[Raziellycas]

Finally b&c it's online, we can follow our progression with our army, don't you have another rabbit in your hat? after the cyber apothecary you could make a dread, or maybe a scary land raider or anything you like ^__^

 

It's nice to see you again brother Danek

[Terminatorinhell]

that is soo awesome but what arms did u use?? this is fantastic

[kha'delath]

;) :jaw: :jaw: :jaw: :: :jaw: :jaw:

 

does that sum it up?

 

lovely, but i wnated the blade to be like soul edge....

[-][-Danek-][-]

I've already done the Soul Edge,and was quite unhappy with it.

 

The Soul Edge fits Nightmare,a character from the game Soul Calibur 2.

 

The Sithicus on the otherhand fits Knightmare,Lord-Commander of the Night Lords Second Grand Company.

 

As for the comment about Knightmare's legs looking "too spindly",I've come to agree with that.As a result,I plan on re-designing him one final time(talented sculpters that would care to assist,feel free to PM me.. ;) ),as well as Faythe,Cross and Desaad.

 

As to why the dismal lack of updates,I'm sadly without a good Digicam at the moment.Rest assured though that Re-Inventing Fear is a project that is constantly on going.Currently I've finished my 1500 points,and am branching out into other areas;

 

Re-Inventing Fear in Kill-Team(The Harriers)

 

Re-Inventing Fear in Space Hulk(The Terrorwing)

 

Re-Inventing Fear in BFG(The Fleet)

 

Re-Inventing Fear in Cityfight(a modular Cityfight board representing a world specifically under seige from the Night Lords Second Grand Company)

 

Speaking of which,this affords me an opportunity to ask a question of my brethren here.

 

How would you go about painting fresh blood?

 

I'm currently working on "flags" to use in Cityfight scenarios like Firesweep.These flags will also carry the theme of the destruction of innocence and faith,ranging from shattered Aquilas to dismembered citizens hanging from streetlights.

 

I want the blood to look as fresh as possible,pooling underneath the bodies/remains in a realistic way.

 

Can this easily be accomplished with standard paints and inks,or should I look to GW's Water Effects?

[Terminatorinhell]

for the blood u can make 2 types of red water it down a little and pool it around the bodies and for nightmares legs just bulk the shins and make the knee more angular and u will be fine

[Tubal]

Fresh blood is a very bright red, perhaps too bright to work in 40k-scale. I suggest you wet-blend a little scab red into the blood to make it look less uniform and to tone it down a little. Regular paints with a little gloss varnish should be good enough, unless you want really massive amounts of blood ;)

Blood isn't transparent though, so make sure you mix a lot of paint into the water effects (if you use it) or paint over it.

[Freebooter]

May the Emperor protect...

They look awesome.

 

When i saw this open again i was hooping i could scream zombie post and pull out my shotgun...

Damn you Danek...
