When GW came out with the HH box set I started night lords here's my things I've painted so far

I can't even see the models! This isn't scary, it is a sad attempt at showing your models.

I like the idea, though I think it would benefit from a bit more light! I know you're going for an atmospheric thing and I can just about make out the OSL on the plasma gun etc, but I think you'd do your guys more justice with some better lighting. The photos are also quite grainy, are you able to get a hold of a better camera?

@Sneshy: I think that's a little unnecessarily harsh.

@OP, I can see what you were trying to do with the darkness and such, but I'd really appreciate some pics on a cleaner background with more light, it looks like there's some good painting and converting going on here that isn't really being done justice by the pics.

A few photography tips, if you're not sure how to get better pics:
- Use a clean, plain background if possible. This can be anything from a sheet of paper folded behind the models to a proper photography backdrop.
- If the pics are too dark, either add another light source or set your camera's exposure higher. If this gives you too much of a glare on the pics, turn your camera's ISO setting as low as it'll go and/or put a piece of paper or similar in front of the light source that's causing the glare.
- If you're doing 'special effects' shots like those ones, it's far better to start with a plain image and edit the effects in afterwards in your photo editor of choice than it is to try and set up the effect with just the camera and light source.

Hope that's of some help, I look forward to seeing these.

I fixed

Looking good!
