As part of my megablog I have doen a couple of test NG models.
The blog:

Please help me decide on which one to go with.
My wife has picked, I've picked but I need other opinions.

Anyway here are the biggerised pics.



For 10 minutes of assembly/cleanup, 20 minutes of painting, and about 1 hour of drying time (primarily the glue for the sand, undercoat and devlan mud) it turned out really well.

Considering pre-devaln mud and rehighlight they looked like this:

great paint jobs on both schemes, i voted fine edge, as it looks sharp and neat.

Maybe if you do the clothes all grey and do a barad black wash over it.

But i love them so far

badab wash over them drybrushed with adeptus battlegrey works a charm- tis what i'm doing

MY suggestion is whichever is quickest- both look good

Fine edge for me!

Both schemes are excellent paint jobs. However I chose the heavy dry brushing because when you do a whole mob of them, I think the fine edging will stand out too much and appear dirty or cheap. The heavy should pull all the models together as a mob. Not saying I would feel that the fine edging wouldn't look good on a mob, I just feel that compared to the heavy drybrushing it is inferior.

They both look pretty good.

I like the heavy grey highlighting a little more.
It makes the robes look more faded, which makes sense if they wear them in the sunlight.
Also, I doubt night goblins have the money to be buying crisp new robes all the time. They'll look good either way though.

I went for fine edge. Looks blacker.

Do BOTH. Night Goblins do not have uniform factories pumping out their cloaks. Both schemes look close enough that if you have troops with both schemes in the same unit it will look cohesive, and yet there will be slight variations to make them look more unruly.

I voted Fine edge, I would also yellow up the teeth a bit they are blinding white.

The fine edge just looks so much more true to life. Really amazing the difference the wash makes!

Fine edge it is guys.

Thanks for the feedback.
