Night Lords WiP

[Hellrender]

Hello all,

 

I signed up for the Call of Chaos, and this is going to be the place where i show it off.

First my pledge:

Gods of Chaos hear my call!

 

I Hellrender hereby pledge my soul, my allegiance and that of my troops', to Chaos Eternal.

 

I swear to you that I will paint and present a Lord of Chaos, and 20 Chaos marines of The Night Lords, before January 18th, 2013.

I also promise to provide a project update, at least twice per month.

 

Since we are allowed to have them assembled before the 2nd of nov, here is a peek:

As you can see i blatantly stole the idea from Raz's Word Bearers, which are completly awesome.

 

I will see if i can write a piece of fluff to go with these Night Lords, and put it in here when i've got it ;)

I will be using various bits and things, and these are the only ones i've got, so its going to be a busy three months :)

 

Cheers

Thanks, he is my favorite aswell :D

 

Some updates:

 

I tried to sculpt some flayed skin, i think it worked quite alright :)

I gave that guy an arm in his hand, i will have to thicken the hand that holds the arm a bit, aswell as sculpt something at the end of the arm, but not sure yet how..

Thats it for now.

 

I did start painting on 6 of them. 1 i tried the army painter dark tone quick shade on, and on one i did the washes. i think i will stick to washes, as it gives nearly the same result, with a lot less mess. Quick shade gives a cleaner look on the model. I hope to have pics of those 6 later today, maybe tomorrow, depending on how much free time i got.

and another WIP update. The blue and red is sort of done. Now the lightning, base, and blood.

 

On this pic, you can see the one i tried the Army Painter Quick Shade dark tone on, its very glossy... i hope i get that away with just Satin Varnish.. we'll see

Question is, do i base with hobby sand, or with the new textured paint?

[Brother Ulkesh]

Nice work, Hellrender. I like the effort you're putting in with the GS & severed arms, etc.

 

For what it's worth, I prefer sand to texture paint on bases. Maybe I'm just rubbish with the paint, but when I tried it, it looked a lot... plainer... than when I use sand. Might just be me, though.
