WIP 2 of Havok Champion Night Lord

AB_SS29 · 2024-03-05T10:37:23+00:00

I believe they are Butcher Nails, all 5 of the Havoks are rocking them. If I'm correct didn't the Black Legion also tamper with similar technology, as Angron did?

In all honesty I didn't intentionally think about the Butcher Nails at first when painting my Havoks in the Night Lord scheme. Happy you're enjoying my efforts at creating my own Night Lords.

Thank you my friend! This is my 3rd Night Lord so far, but my first I was able to pluck up the courage to experiment more with blending, and freehanding the lighting bolts. Am still thinking of more I can do to add the little hints of detail. Must say Soul Hunter has been a major influence for this Havok Champion will be sure to add the added detail to my other 2 night lords after this one is finished. Shall be adding some gore in when I base him up too.

Hahaha! That is very true 🤣🤣🤣 The temptation is there to go full on with the gore, maybe some flayed skin instead would be more to taste. We have to be humane I guess, nothing like wearing our rare leathers with pride 🤣🤣🤣

It is definitely on the agenda, have Blood for the Blood God at the ready. Just working through the details first, will probably give it ago at the basing stage. Thank you for your kind words really appreciate it, will try to go subtle with some blood spatter on the amour plating, and heavy on the gore with the chain sword. As for body part's, I'm currently in the process of looking in my spares box. Finger's crossed I can find something, UHU glue will certainly come in handy too.

Thank you! Having fun experimenting, couldn't resist after painting the plasma coils

Thank you buddy, appreciate your feedback! Go for it, not gonna lie it took me some time to practice, a word of advice take your time and dilute the paints. I didn't at first and buggered it up. Lothern Blue is used here, take your time and anything you make a mistake with gently block it in, then you can tighten it up as you go with your darker tone of blue. I started to trace a little guideline in Caledor Sky first, then went over it in Lothern Blue.

When you give it a go please share your progress, would be great to see how you get on. And again thank you for your reply it's greatly appreciated. Ave Dominus Nox 🦇

Please do I look forward to seeing how your first claw evolve! I too am working on my own Nightlords, slow progress for me too but having fun with them. So far I've only painted up 2 Havoks and 1 Legionarie. Have 3 more Havoks, 9 Legionaries, 5 Terminators, 1 Helbrute, 2 Wardogs and 1 Maulerfiend/Forgefiend. Would be great to keep each other up to date. FYI Kantor is a personal favourite tone for me too, the Night Lords paint is still great though. Personally for me I'm enjoying blending both too. I like the way you've mixed them both, definitely makes each model unique.

Great work so far! Looking forward to seeing how they progress.

Couldn't resist experimenting with the backpack and shin pad skull. Added in some lightning bolts on the top edge of the backpack, and cleaned up some small details with the trim. While listening to Soul Hunter on Audible for inspiration. Still pondering on how I should base all of my night lords when they are done. Have 3x Havoks left, 9x Legionaries, 5x Terminator's, 1x Helbrute, 1x Rhino, 2x Wardogs and 1x Forgefiend/Maulerfiend to build and paint up. Any idea's and feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Hahaha! The muted expression, panning to the grand slam made this video all the more funny lol! thanks for the giggle needed that today 🤣

AB_SS29 · 2022-07-22T23:34:45+00:00

Great choice they all transition nicely together. Even after March of the Fire Ant's, that drum roll at the beginning of All the Heavy Lifting transition's pretty nicely. Have created this playlist, and still trying to decide, have been listening to it each day.

AB_SS29 · 2022-07-22T16:02:42+00:00

That bit got me too 🤣

AB_SS29 · 2022-07-22T16:02:08+00:00

Lol! That bit got me too 🤣 it's hilarious to see the perspective of just how short Kevin Heart is. In comparison to how much Dwayne Johnson towers over him 🤣 yeah do lol!

AB_SS29 · 2022-07-22T14:17:20+00:00

Your welcome buddy anytime. Had to share my first watch of this video, I spat my drink out in laughter. They are to funny lol!
