Neigorath's Black Legion II


Neigorath

Recommended Posts

Gods of Chaos hear my call!

 

I Lord-Captain Belial Neigorath the Thrice-accursed 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 pack of 5 Raptors, one hellbrute, 6 chosen, one forge/maulerfiend and one lieutenant of the 8th Cohort, Legio XVI, aka Black Legion, before January 18th, 2013.

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

 

This thread will also become my new general WIP-thread after the Call is over as the old one has become cluttered and most of the models in them have been upgraded.

 

- Lord-Captain Belial Neigorath, Butcher of Nestir, presumed dead

First pre-update:

 

Started assembling the Raptor Squad for the Call. Going to try and magnetize all weapon options to enable changing them to Warp Talons in a game or two if I feel like it.

 

Also started converting the Helbrute as the first one was too far in the painting already for me to be able to enter it into the Call.

First days work:

Did a bit of reposing, first I was thinking about imitating the ground smashing 'brute I saw here but then decided to do something a little bit different instead, so this old warrior has torn a rhino to shreds and is now looking for new targets. Needs a ton of greenstuff work still but need to let it cure first...

And so it begins:

5 Raptors, 6 Chosen, Hellbrute, Lord and Forgefiend/Maulerfiend. Weapon options magnetized, limbs seems to have to be bluetacked as my magnets are not powerful enough... Some parts of the demon engine still need the undercoat, as well as the pistols of the raptors but I'm now ready to start.

Had to speedpaint 40 cultists for a tourney tomorrow so these went to the backburner for a while but hopefully I can continue next month, should have at least some free time.

I work in retail so December has been busy... also broke a toe... but some progress.

Raptors are going to get their detailing done tomorrow, already undercoated the pistols. Still need to undercoat the different special weapon options. Maulerfiend-parts of the 'Fiend are on the backburner for now, need to finish the rest of the monster first. Ignore the rearmost two chosen with boltguns, they are WiP's from the first batch and therefore not included in the Call because I had already advanced beyond the undercoat stage.

Hellbrute done except for base.

Chosen, Forgefiend and Lord also done but the pictures didn't turn out right so I need to reshoot them and get them based before the 19th.

Aaaand done.

 

I might go back and do some touchups later but now they are tabletop quality which is enough for me.

Includes some small conversion work as well, mainly on the chosen and the hellbrute.

Latest acquisition.

IMAG0287.jpg

Yes, it's missing headlights.. got it, another defiler, Leman Russ Vanquisher, Basilisk, Sentinel and a metal grey knight terminator for 30 euros plus postage, not too shabby.

 

Started a larger project as well, just need some plasticard and maybe a source for some superheavy tracks...

So now, I have three...

Results of my first evening at building these bad boys(or they might be gals, haven't checked)
IMAG0402.jpg
Basic Helldrake body with additional lasher tendrils and zombie dragon wings.

IMAG0403.jpg
Close up of head options. Either the heldrake neck with the bat head or zombie dragon head and neck with a bit of chopping.

IMAG0404.jpg
Second one has only the head swapped at the moment. Body consisted of such a number of small parts that it's assembly took time. Still, I'm liking the pose already. It will get maulerfied arms most likely.

Can't stop now! This is drake country! Although only got this far today because company party. Free booze! Whoo!

IMAG0405.jpg
Next step is to figure out how to mount the heldrake wings on it.
IMAG0406.jpg
This drake lost it's shoulder armor because of wing placement. Now I need to figure out to rearmour the shoulders or sculpt some muscles.
