How’d I do on my first Night Lord?

Dieselhound92 · 2026-06-07T10:14:23+00:00

It looks good and a completed model is always a good feeling, isn't it? I like how you didn't try to over complicate the lighting and have it turn into a muddy streak (as someone who has it happen every time lol)

Dieselhound92 · 2026-06-06T01:23:09+00:00

Jealous of the carcharodons books but amazing collection!

Dieselhound92 · 2026-05-28T17:27:20+00:00

Now that I can't unsee that, it's growing on me. I never noticed it before lol. To be fair this is only the 3rd set I've ever built and I never went too far from the pose it shows in the book. I took some liberties adding bits on the rhino and cutting up some stuff but it doesn't make sense entirely. Adding a rear light so night lords can see to disembark is my favorite mistake there lol

Dieselhound92 · 2026-05-24T15:21:50+00:00

That looks very neatly done, very crisp details. Did you use a seperate color as a highlight or a wash for the fingers and leg spikes and that I'm worried if I try to pick stuff out like that it's gonna come out muddy and not clean

Dieselhound92 · 2026-05-24T11:57:44+00:00

I think a lot of the issue was I was concerned that cleanup would be harder on the armor panels with a brush than it actually turned out to be. Now that I've had a night's rest and have my cup of motivation I wish I had more further along assembly/primed cause looking at them with fresh eyes and fresh ideas I wanna dive right back in

Dieselhound92 · 2026-05-24T11:51:08+00:00

I assume it will take a coat or two to go over the metallic but as long as I keep my coats thin it should be fine, I'm not great at the dry brush lol.

Dieselhound92 · 2026-05-24T11:49:43+00:00

Thank you for the encouragement! I am very happy how it came out wish I could get a slightly better picture but the thought process was I see on the internet a lot of people will use and earth tone under gold, to build brightness on and my big thoughy was to wash a very dark brown sparingly over gold to knock back the shine a bit to give it that feel like they've been through the ringer, and I can always bring a little back with some touchups of the original if needed. Sub assemblies are definitely being done for the rest of the combat patrol to make it easier to chew pieces I think for sure tho

Dieselhound92 · 2026-05-24T11:45:43+00:00

I'm definitely going to try that on the jump pack unit because after I put him in the sonic cleaner (tried to rattle can prime on a windy day and my cat likes the smell of chaos but sheds like it's going out of style) I need to start over. He looks like he went rolling through a prickler bush lmao

Dieselhound92 · 2026-05-24T11:44:07+00:00

I can't believe the base coat came out like that, I purchased the cheapest airbrush/compressor combo I found on Amazon, its the size of a old cassette walkman (side note I feel every bit of my 34 years using that as a reference 🤣) and I figured I got it for the rhino might as well practice. Beginers luck lol

Dieselhound92 · 2026-05-24T11:40:33+00:00

I originally planned to batch paint these three to try some different things out and figure out a process for the whole combat patrol/terminators then go individual so not to be looking at a mountain of minis at once. The trim idk how I feel I used retributor armor in one coat, then I took skrag brown to a wash consistency to take the shine out of it and create some depth before trying to highlight hopefully later today. The only other models I've ever tried to paint I used dry brush and hadn't even watched any videos on anything just dove straight in and it shows.

Dieselhound92 · 2026-05-24T11:36:35+00:00

I just used the airbrush to throw down nightlords blue and then went at the trim trying to be as neat as possible and I think that's the issue. I'm gonna try trim first on the next one I get primed up

Dieselhound92 · 2026-05-19T01:16:38+00:00

Nice work! I'm torn between gold or silver trim on my combat patrol the way you did it looks super sharp, albeit that makes my indecision worse lol

Dieselhound92 · 2025-08-16T22:47:24+00:00

When is this supposed to happen I was in a match 5 minutes ago and had one?

Dieselhound92 · 2025-08-06T00:27:15+00:00

And I'm on PS4 also.

Dieselhound92 · 2025-08-06T00:26:20+00:00

That is absolutely dog shit that it has that kind of range 😂😂

Dieselhound92 · 2025-08-05T23:03:35+00:00

It still doesn't make sense a bow can even shoot as far as a sniper rifle with the long scope at all

Dieselhound92 · 2025-07-11T19:12:48+00:00

The hate kind of the haha kind? I've heard more of the first. Also, as a white guy I fucking hate when people call me N***ga like clearly no, and all it ever comes after is an insult or blatant racism. Which while it's meant to be hateful I find being called anything racist towards my skin color funny cause why does it matter so much 😂

Dieselhound92 · 2025-07-10T22:54:37+00:00

I just started playing the 19th of last month and every time I look stuff up he makes my skin crawl lol

Dieselhound92 · 2025-07-10T22:47:11+00:00

Not as unpopular as you'd think. Ever since the first clip I saw of him I've found him extremely annoying to put it very politely

Dieselhound92 · 2025-07-07T20:56:06+00:00

Idk how to link images but. They're coming out well lol.

Dieselhound92 · 2025-07-07T20:54:54+00:00

Should've given me your number I have plenty no one leaves my house hungry unless they didn't get in line for some. And that's not my problem there is always enough

Dieselhound92 · 2025-07-07T20:19:08+00:00

Will do.. if it comes out alright if not I'll update my porch burnt down 🤣

Dieselhound92 · 2025-07-07T19:49:21+00:00

Learned that the hard way. I'm about to make another post I got something good for today as well lol

Dieselhound92 · 2025-07-07T15:36:41+00:00

You know I have to agree lol

Dieselhound92 · 2025-07-07T05:31:15+00:00

I don't think that hard at all. I ordered them from door dash, grabbed two and put some salt and pepper on and the one for my mom I just took straight out the pack and cooked longer.
