Evening all,
Clearly I’ve been re-watching Game of Thrones, oh Rob. Side-note, definitely backed the GOT miniatures game on Kickstarter, will article the s%*t out of that at some point.
Today, however, is all about the Night Bastards (or ‘Lords’, depending on your preference).
True-Scale(ish)
Primaris Marines, love ‘em or hate ‘em, have opened up a tonne of new modelling opportunities and for me they have rekindled my true passion; that is having a scaled up army of post-human criminal scum. Since the Emperor saw nothing wrong with recruiting subterranean Terran prisoners and inducting them into his galactic spanning crusade, solid plan!
Here’s how the Night Lords are coming along:
That will do for now, actually, f*%K it, below’s a short story for the ol’ Night Bastards (feedback always appreciated on models and narrative).

Take care all and have an ace one.

Excellent mate – Reiver masks are just perfect for NLs!
Cheers Alex, I’m glad at how they’ve turned out, just hoping they fit in with the other True-Scalers (the ones that required real graft!). Be ace to have an army of the bastards.
You’ve done well man. They look good
Cheers very much, I think I’ll take a break before I finish them. I’ve a Dreadnought that I’d like to put some colour on and it will give me a chance to practice lightning bolts on a larger model!
They look great. Really awesome.
Thanks Thomas, I wrecked the paint job the first time round, so I’m pleased that they’re looking a lot better thanks to multiple glazes (that and some careful lighting :P).
Ooh, those are nice mate! I too love the Night Lords and you’ve made a cracking job of these. Only thing I’d suggest is to add a few more grisly trophies to really complete the Night Lords effect (Dark Eldar kits are a trove for them – make friends with a squeamish Dark Eldar fan and you’re laughing). Otherwise though these are damn near perfect!
Thanks very much, that’s some high praise! I popped a couple severed heads on their belts (behind them), not sure what I’m willing to add now that I’ve thrown paint on them… maybe I’ll try and freehand some gang signs or some such, as I agree, Night Lords are at their coolest when they are bedecked in the flayed flesh of their tormented enemies (sick dudes!).
Beautifully painted minatures Ed. Dodgy Night Bastards 👊🏽🙄
Cheers James, looking forward to the next time I roll them out and cause some real terror! So proud that they held their own against Custodes.
Very nice, hope it’s not a little too late to ask, but where did you get the tiny chest insignia from?
