I'm happy you've scored some Hitech stuff! I'm quite the fan of their stuff ;-) I know some don't like the semi blocky aspect the poses have but what they do they do well imo, the details are crisp and they have some different ideas for design and aesthetics which is good to see. Looking forward to some paint on these and would love your opinion on the models from a "Professional Painter" point of view lol! :-)

@Gitsplitta: Thanks, I shall.

@Nafarious: Throw models and money at me and I will! Well, maybe I can manage to pick up some inexpensive Warmachine models some time and paint them.

@Moltar:



First WIP on the Night Lords guy:




so far it's all basecoats and basic highlighting. The blue and the gold 'pop' very well already.


Automatically Appended Next Post:
Update! Just because I'm happy I can post updates again. It's also nice just sitting and painting one character figure from start to end.

The base obviously needs some more work.

That's a sweet looking "finish line." The blades on the power claw look exceptionally awesome.

Thanks, guys.

@Moltar: I'll write a review on the model once it's done, but one kind of annoying thing was that the blades on the lightning claw actually come as very chunky, square parts. They're curved and have some detailling at the end where they connect with the "fist" part but you basically have to chop them down to being at least slightly pointy and having an edge on the insides. It's a bit weird.

Early WIP of The Other Guy (supposed to become a Blood Angel at some point):


Here's finished Night Lords Lord:






Hope you like him.

Very nice.
I like the lightning on the armour. Convincing shape to it. I assume it's just layered up from blue to white?

@GiraffeX: Thanks, that's very flattering.

@Dr H: Cheers. Yes, the lightnings are done in a very traditional way. At first I considered playing around with glases a lot as well but actually it just didn't prove to be necessary. So just layering here.

@Yggdrasil: Thanks.

@San76: Thank you very much!


Well, I'm glad that the mini went over so well. Here's a close-up shot of the face (had to brighten up the picture and ramp up the contrast a little so the face is more visible.



Just a little detail so you know that it's not just the tip of the nose sticking out from dark nothingness.

Nicely done, Siggy. Lightning looks really good and so does the gold on the rims of his huge shoulder pads.

@Dysartes: Cheers!

@nerdfest09: Thanks very much, gave the red a few more layers.

@Nafarious: Thank you. Well, at least he's got some feather-y wings...



Update:






Well, the Night Lords guy was an immense success in terms of popularity. I put him up on Facebook yesterday in the afternoon and by this morning it was on the top spot of posts on my site, even surpassing the massively popular reviews of the Wargames Factory Zombie apocalypse survivors! Pretty good motivation to continue on with this Blood Angels fella!

@Nafarious: Cheers! To be honest, I've been a bit naughty over the past hour and put the fella aside for a bit to do some work on minis I want to review. I just looked over to the model again and wow, this must be the most vibrant, sexy red I ever painted.

@nerdfest09: NOOOOOOOOOO, you gotta wait for my review in which I'll uncover that the models are actually hollow and full of tiny, deadly spiders!!!

Wow, fantastic stuff as always Sigur. When I first saw that model I honestly thought it was supposed to be the Death Guard Primarch Mortarion but seeing him red I can easily see him as a blood angel too. How big are those models compared to a normal marine?

@IceAngel: You're in luck, my review of HiTech Miniatures stuffs went online today and it's got a size comparison shot! (The Night Lords guy measures 36mm from foot to eye level, so he's pretty darned tall).

@Nafarious: Hehehe, those HiTechy guys I didn't get for reviewing purposes, they're proper commission jobs. If things go well though I think I've got some Warmahordes things coming up in the near future. And as always - wether or not I paint Warmachine models can be up to YOU.

@nerdfest09: Good point. I guess it would be really weird for you to buy anything that's NOT full of deadly critters.

Alright peeps and peepettes, here's the review of HiTech Miniatures' Samael!
