Dark Imperium Death Guard

Evening!

It has really been a while since I updated anything on here but thought I would share some of my first Death Guard models from Dark Imperium. I love the Death Guard and actually sold an army not that long ago and have regretted that decision many times.

With the new models I was over the moon and couldn't wait to get started on them. With that said:



C&C always welcome!

Night Lord's Support Unit Finished and Army So Far

I have finished my legion support squad and tried to work the effect on the Terminator's power sword into the lightning claw on the sergeant. pretty pleased with it as it is but may go back and add in some lightning patterns when my tiny brushes arrive. I've spent some time moving several miniatures around and changing some of the arms and weapons on them so I at least had a usable force as it stands.



I had been working on parts of several different units and thought this would be a better way to go about things. The two tactical squads don't have special weapons or heavy weapons at the moment but I still have the two flamers painted and am planning on getting the heavy flamers from Forgeworld for each unit. These will hopefully be magnetised so I can switch out which weapons I use.


The additional five marines for each unit are nearly built and ready to go but I first need to finish off my Atrementar Terminators before I can get back to those. I guess after that It will be a case of adding additional units to the army. Armour is something I am lacking at the moment and, continuing with the finishing things I am working on first, I will add two Rhinos to the army as my next purchases.

The Rhinos also present a problem because I may need to do a slightly different scheme so they don't end up looking like something from the movie Tron. I figure I will start them with an all over base of Kantor Blue as apposed to the normal black base coat.

Enough rambling, C&C welcome as always.

Night Lord #4 Finished

I have finished the fourth member of the Night Lord's warband. I really enjoyed making this guy and am very pleased with him. I removed the skulls on his belt from a spare backpack from the Sevastus Kranon model from Dark Vengeance. The shoulder was made by cutting the face from a Space Wolves head I had laying around and then spreading out the green stuff around it and pulling with a silicon shaper. I think next time I will remove the chin also so it sits flatter against the shoulder guard.

Night Lord #3 In Progress

Number three is under way. This is the weapons specialist and will be armed with a flamer. Next step is to finish off the bronze and then start filling in the areas that will be Leadbelcher and of course washes over those areas. Agrax for the bronze and Nuln oil for the other metal areas.


The lightning on the head isn't that funny shape as the picture shows, It's just where the light has hit the helmet and distorted it. I'll endeavour to take a photo on my next update that doesn't make the detail on the head look wrong.

Night Lord #2 Finished

The second Night Lord for my first squad is done. I modelled the skin fetishes using green stuff and the combat blade is from the Space Wolves sprue.

Night Lords Sergeant Finished

I have finished my Night Lords sergeant test model today and am really pleased with it. I also fiddled around with Autodesk Pixlr for a bit of added effect :)


And the original with just the borders added:



And work begins on the second dude...

Night Lords Allies



Ok, so I tried painting a Night Lord a while ago for 40k but It wasnt my best and decided to shelve the idea. This morning while painting a Broodlord from Space Hulk I thought the colour could work well on a Night Lords marine. Here is the result so far:


This is the test model and I'm much happier with how this turned out, so much so that I decided to do some Distrusted Allies for my Word Bearers.
