First off, awsome looking servos, really nicly done. About the colour scheme, I used to run an IH army and did a similar thing with my Apoth. I gave him black armour with a white right arm (and pad) and helmet. I found this worked really well with the rest of the army as it didn't create a 'sore-thumb' solid white model in a black army but gave enough of a contrast to tell he was a specialist. I also did the same thing with the Libis I ran; right arm and helmet/hood in blue. Sorry no pics tho, this was a long time ago and the ary has since been stolen (long story) Keep up the great work and can't wait to see them painted Cheers, PHM

Can never pass up a Dread Thread. Had a few dreads here a while ago, here's my latest beasties: http://i938.photobucket.com/albums/ad224/PowerHungryMonkey/DAsVen3.jpg http://i938.photobucket.com/albums/ad224/PowerHungryMonkey/DAsVen4.jpg http://i938.photobucket.com/albums/ad224/PowerHungryMonkey/DAsMortis1.jpg http://i938.photobucket.com/albums/ad224/PowerHungryMonkey/DAsMortis3.jpg

The darker armour really works well. I've never thought the Night Lords should be very bright at all and minimal lightning effect on him draws the eye while not overpowering. I've actually just started reading Soul Hunters and thers a line that keeps popping up when refering to the Night Lords: 'Midnight Clad'. This new scheme really reflects that well. Btw, when I'm reading about Night Lords now, I'm picturing your army, you've nailed the imagry perfectly

Hey, I've been lurking on your thread for quite a while, one of the reasons I joined B&C infact, and just wanted to say what an amazing army you've got. They really capture the feel of the Night Lords in all there gory glory. For your rubric marines do you plan to leave the skulls suspended by the clear rod? I was thinking it would be cool to have the flames on fire with the flames running over the hood to hide the pin join. This will give them a creepier look (not that your guys can get much creepier mind you) and hide a pin on an otherwise flawless idea. The fluff is good to and the flamming skull mightn't fit with it but here's a thought; do they have to be ex-TS rubric marines? Can they just be Night Lords who have been possessed or, for whatever reason, have been made thrall to the sorc and been turned into little more than undead bodyguards? This would maybe allow you to blend the painting in more with your army rather than have to have TS elements still in it. Just tossing out some ideas. Once again, awesom army with some amazing ideas and conversions. You very nearly got me making Night Lords but I have too many other projects on at the moment

I love Dread Threads. Some really great conversions and very nice paint jobs all through this thread, I hope I am worthy. Dreads are sort of a hobby-within-the-hobby for; I can't get enough of them.

Its taken me about an hour to go through this whole thread and then wipe the drool from my chin. There are some really nice HQs here, hope mine can match up.
