Chronicles of the Venak’tor Nox

[Doghouse]

Fantastic job on the knight pilot, I whole heartedly approve of the design. Love the ad mech as well, very characterful force you have coming together. :tu:

Update

While it's not related to my CoC vow, I wanted to (finally) show off the finished 3rd Claw! I'll get right to the good stuff, with their chronicle first, then photos. A big thanks to Flint, who was a big help in getting the chronicle to read properly.

I stand atop a brass staircase, the stench of blood and fire surrounding me. Candles and braziers are the only source of light here. They flicker and dance, casting strange shadows across the walls and pillars. Before me stands Silic'eth, proud and tall. His right pauldron still bears the icon of the XIIth, but he stands now in midnight clad. To my left is Tor'veck, clad in his Terminator warplate, and to my right stands Moriana. She is clad in a simple robe, holding a golden chalice of ostentatious make. Behind Silic'eth stand a few of our number, most post human. 

Tor'veck holds a bolter of ancient design before him. It is a solid, blunt weapon, made for war. Upon its black surface are scrawled oaths written in Nostromam. Tor'veck presents the weapon to Silic'eth. He speaks, his voice a low metallic rumbling that fills the hall. 

"Do you, Silic'eth of the VIIIth, accept your role in this? Do you swear to lead your brothers into eternal war? Will you lead them to glory through bloodshed before the War God?"

 

Silic'eth looks to Tor'veck, holding his gaze through the crimson eye lenses. There is a moment, a pause of sorts, as if he is considering the full extent of this oath. His hand moves to the bolter, resting upon its surface. I take a step forward, standing with Tor'veck to witness the rebirth of 3rd Claw.

"By the Brass Throne and this weapon, I swear it."

 

Silic'eth's crimson eye lenses stay locked to those of Tor'veck. His gauntlet hangs over the wrapped grip of the boltgun. Worlds burn and stars die in that infinite moment. And then... his hand closes, the bolter firmly locked within his grasp. Third claw is reborn in the blood and brass of murdered billions as armored fists hammer an oath against midnight clad breast plates.

I've still got a fair bit of work to do on my vow, but progress is being made. I've decided to change the 'Zerkers to World Eaters, so expect a fair bit of red and brass soon. I'd also love to hear your thoughts on 3rd Claw.

Cutting it a little close, but I've managed to finish my vow!

I'm fairly happy with how they turned out. I'd love to hear some thoughts on them.

[KrautScientist]

Brilliant work on those berzerkers! I love how massive and threatening they are! And while I normally really like bunny ears, leaving them off here has made the models look sleeker and even deadlier. Fantastic job! :)

[Teetengee]

very nice looking tarvick

[Augustus b'Raass]

Great work on the berzerkers and the Night Lords, Tarvick. They looks suitably menacing ±tu±

[Zeller]

Damn. That is what traitor marines should look like. They're perfect.

[Trysanna]

I've updated the first page with a few unit ideas that I have been planning out for the Warband. No models to show off yet, but I have a few bases to show off. 

 

 

 

I really like these Sector Imperials bases, and I think my Night Lords are going to look really snazzy on them. More to come soon(ish).

[Mister Feral]

Khorne Berzerkers are great, good use of the FW upgrade kit and Raptor plastics.

 

Bases are neat too (I own a box of the 32mms myself.)

 

Is the big one a 60mm? I need to get one for a Helbrute!

[Trysanna]

A small update. Nothing to massive, just some rebasing for The Troopers and a Contemptor that I've finally decided will be part of the Night Lords warband.
