Night Lords Forgefiend and Raptor Lord!

Hey all,

As promised on Monday, here is a good showing of the work I got up to at the weekend. Still some bits and bobs to do, mostly add lightning to armour panels, but not far off on these guys! And the Land raider and Helbrute all got different degrees of base coat applied yesterday evening so they are coming along as well. Saturday will be a long day of painting!

Peace out,

Rob

Eldar Wraithblade Paint Scheme - Proof of Concept

Hey all,

So as I mentione din yesterdays post, I had enough time between paints drying on the Night Lords that I manged to start a single Wraithblade to put together my proof of concept paint scheme! I also have white background pictures of the Yncarne below, so if you aren't interested in the Wraithblade you can just skip down :P

I wanted this entire army to be dark. I felt it befitted the rising legion of the dead, particularly when we are in the Grim Dark future of 40k! I also wanted the scheme to be relatively simplistic, so I have gone for the same deep metallic black that I used to painted the Yncarne's body and have just used the abundance of gems to provide points colours, then I went with a blend similar to the souls swirl of the Yncarne for the face plate and the cloth. 

Don't mistake! I still have a LOT to do on this bugger. The axe needs all the gems picking out and splattering with blood, the axe handle needs some slight additional highlights and all the gems needs additional lines followed by a glaze. But overall I am pleased with where this is going. 

For those that skipped straight down, here's the Yncarne you were wanting to see :)

I hope you all enjoyed the dirty eldar filth assaulting your eyeballs :)

Peace out,

Rob

Nights Lords Daemon Prince Commission - WIP

Good Monday everyone! ( I lie, no Monday was ever good),

Over the weekend I doubled down on my Night Lords commission as its already a little overdue! So expect lots of updates this week on how these guys are coming along. First up is the Daemon Prince! This was one of those models which I think I probably pick up, look at, and then put down around 20-30 times before I feel confident enough to lay brush to it. It just has that much detail and interesting organic shapes coupled with armour plates. A bit of brain teaser for me personally!

The incorporeal style of the green flesh was as requested by the client, though I may have gone a little too green with it! The armour still needs lightning added to it and there are plenty of little details like the sword and eyes that are not 100% complete yet. But I'm happy with the progress :)

In other news I also had time to start a proof of concept scheme for my Eldar army that is going along with my Yncarne, so that should pop up soon too :)

Peace out,

Rob

The Avatar of Ynnead - The Yncarne

Hey all,

So I've finished this beast of a model! I'm not 100% happy with the hair, but then I do struggle with white. I spent a good chunk of time matching colour palettes to see if other hair colours would work, but I concluded they would either clash or get subsumed in the rest of the models darkness, so white it was. 

Overall though, I'm very happy with how this turned out! I'm looking forward to putting together a small force of metallic black and burnt red styled Eldar. Don't worry however! Whilst the list will inevitably be middling to strong due to the inherent strength of the Eldar codex, you won't see me running wraithguard or scat packs. Wraithblades on the other hand...

Anyway, pictures!

Peace out,

Rob

MOAR Kromlech New Release! Legions Quad Lascannon

Hey gang,

Despite only posting up a Kromlech new release a few days ago they are already unveiling more designs that fit their heavy weapons platform. I was asked variously about other heavy weapons on this platform and now that they have shown off this Quad Lascannon, I think its safe to assume that most if not all of the Rapier weapons available to the Legiones Astartes will be released. 

I'd just like to note as well that I don't have any sort of inside track on these new releases, so I have no idea what is coming up next! I'm just a nerd who spends his lunch hours trawling third party sites to see what is coming up :) enjoy the pics!

Peace out,

Rob
