Evening all. Recently painted this terminator kitbash up as a test for Night Lords before I tackle a full army. I think I found a scheme and style that works for me
First one I used macragge blue on top of night lords blue
Finally finished my defiler, I wanted like a red glow to illuminate a dark battlefield from the bottom of it so I’ve reflected that in the base or tried to by trying to get red glows on the back of the terrain bits I hope it reads how I wanted it to haha
I am new to miniature painting. So far I only assembled one of the 3 minis from the infernus squad paint set and made him a night lord.
3rd pic is when I was still not finished, but I really like that pic and wanted to share.
It looks messy at some places but i think it fits my favorite chaos space marines.
Finally in a place where I can get the ball rolling on projects. Used that as a chance restart my nightlords and got a test mini done. Really happy with the result
It took about 4 hours to put him together. The body and head are templar, claws and pauldrons are raptors, and backpack is from an old mini of the month. I made a felt doll of this guy awhile back and wanted to make him into a mini!
Just finished my 3rd Raptor from the Murderwing box, we need more MKIV chaos helmets :(
Picked up the Raiders box finally, love the models so much! Looking forward to getting the rest of the squad done
I have gave up on painting them because my hands are shaky.
Are Havocs good? I really like those models
Update for my first 40k Army in 20 years
I really wanted to make a fluffy list, but also don't just want to get Tabled, is there anything you'd change that sticks with the nightlords themes? Im probably most unsure of what Detachment to run.

Metals, bones, flesh and emblems get some colour next.
Bronze trim is a brown/balthazar gold mix, highlighted in pure balth, flesh in screamer pink with the first step of Bugmans glow stippling.
Skulls and trophy bones are gorthor up through screaming skull.
Flesh Tearer contrast over white for the red wings.
A few lighter flesh tones to go on the flayed skin, blue/purple/red washes to break it up, and then washing some of the brighter metals down.
Then, lightning and eyes.
Well on the way to being table ready.
Ave Dominus Nox!
I got a murderwing/raptor/warp talon kit and I don’t particularly think the heads look very 8th legion to me and was wondering if anyone had any recommendations as to places to find good heads for sale. I have a 3d printer but it won’t let me put things above the base so it has a first layer I don’t know how to get off. I’m mainly looking for something like the picture above.
So I’ve kitbashed the Space Marines from the Armageddon box into Night Lords.
I found one on archie forge but without ears, there can i find with them (better on archie forge) and I don’t have etsy. Can someone recommend
a safe place to buy heads ? I am in Austria.
