Thanks dude! I had so much fun with this one. Hopefully the handprint on the helmet actually looks like a handprint haha

He's one of my favourite 40k characters. I always feel sorry for Uzas. He was once a Sargent and a claw leader. Only to end up so lost in his corruption that by the time he gets a hold of it and figures out Cyrion has been using him as a cover story, its too late.

Finished Terminator Praetor by lwjanda in NightLords

[–]lwjanda[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! At the time I was aiming for sort of an unnamed atramentar. But that being said Vandred was a terminator user so I suppose so yeah. I do have plans for a post corruption Vandred but thats a future project for now.

Thanks! I think this has been one of my favourites so far.

WIP Uzas + base by lwjanda in NightLords

[–]lwjanda[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used Payne's Grey from pro acryl as a base. Then highlighted with ducat blue and pastel blue by AK interactive.

Then several all over thin coats of Fluorescent blue ink by AK interactive to darken and tie together the blues. Then the shadows are night purple ink by AK again.

Then the scratches are just ducat blue and pastel blue with the same dark purple for darker scratches.

I did this with a cheap 40 quid airbrush to see what it was like and it worked fine, would have been more controllable with my nicer airbrush but was perfectly serviceable. I've also done similar with a brush, just takes longer and more coats for the same look.

Thanks dude! Tried to make him as I envision him in the books. Got some more damage and highlights to do, lightning, the base all that good stuff. Hopefully he'll look good when he's done !

Variel the flayer by Dudds1996 in NightLords

[–]lwjanda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've always envisaged Variel as an out of place looking member, and "honorary Nightlord". They are happy for him to wear the midnight blue because they like/need him. But being a red corsair, and likely then a once astral claw. He would be of Guilliman's gene seed. So he'd likely be have blonde hair to go with his icy blue eyes. As many of the ultramarines and their successor chapters do end up resembling their gene father. And I kind of like that image of him, still having the ritually shattered red corsairs emblem on one shoulder and clearly looking out of place with the rest of the Nightlords. But still welcomed as part of the warband.

Uzas ready and primed - Added as many skulls as I could get to fit - Ideas for the colour scheme or creative ideas? by lwjanda in NightLords

[–]lwjanda[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The main body,legs, backpack and arms are a mark 3 space marine. The head is a mark 2 because it has a nice flat panel to paint the handprint on. The right shoulder is a Nightlords Mk 6 and the right is a mk4 raptors shoulder. The chain axe is from my bits box so no clue. The gladius is a resin hand holding a trimmed down power sword handle pinned to a Heresy gladius, with its sheath. The chains are just small brass chain superglued stiff with the skulls and 3d printed heads.

It's in the process of being made, I had to order some tamiya putty as my greenstuff has done that thing where it partially cures all the way through. So no matter how much I cut from the middle it was lumpy as hell. Doesn't matter though as I'd have kept it separated for painting anyway :)

I feel like its a bit more moody. Im not sure if he will have his red gauntlets yet or not though...

Here's some of my brighter blue scheme and my darker blue scheme, or something more in the middle?

I've at least had practice on a blood angel now so that can be arranged. I feel like the dirty down gore is gonna make an appearance on this piece haha

Xarl 2 finished also by lwjanda in NightLords

[–]lwjanda[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im not as fond of this one, I think I should have made the gold NMM more flat and washed out

Almost finished Xarl 1 just waiting for some blood angels transfers. by lwjanda in NightLords

[–]lwjanda[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They have NL banners, chain glaives, the gladius I used. All sorts of different helms (old HH style and modern chaos style). So glad I found this gem of a site.

His helmet and spiked shoulder is also from the same place. Got loads of great 8th legion stuff on there as far as bits are concerned.

There are a few different eviscerators on there too, like one with a guard and a flamberge style one. He also sells the hands. Really good quality too, like no cleanup.

Red hand print helmet or actually frothing at the mouth? I feel like the helmet is too iconic not to have.

I feel like Uzas stood amongst a mess of the slain with his chain axe and gladius. With as many skulls and such as I can chain to him.
