After choosing to do a Night lords army for the Tale of 6 Gamers i have finaly made a start. Starting about a week and a bit late basicly cause i still dont have the models yet. (i have ordered them they just havnt arrived.) When i said that i had made a start, i lied. i have just created 4 bases for my night lords to live on. so far i have finished *Silenced Bolt gun. Just an idea but fits in with the infiltrating army Some WiP And some Posers from 3rd Platoon showing off The Idea behind the bases is that they are fighting in some sort of industrial area or a hive.

I fail to see it feasically possible to silence a mini grenade launcher that is the bolt pistol but cool nonetheless.

I like the bases - I think that a good base really ups the visual impact of any force. One suggestion - I'm not sure that the Goblin Green edge to the base really matches the gritty industrial base very well. Have you considered a brown edge?

agreed on the green, graveyard earth works well with anything (thats whats on the templars) and I like the added touch of numbers on the metal plates, and the silenced bolt gun rocks! If you have any, use spare sniper muzzles as they pretty much are silencers You have a Platoon of Storm Troopers?

Yeah i wasnt to sure on the green. repainting them brown hust now.
@ Gavin: i do have enough to make a platoon of stormtroopers but i will just use them as grenadeers.
Unfortunatly i dont have anyspare sniper rifles for some reason *cough*Gavin*cough* and the silencer wasnt to hard to make. just drill the barel of the bolter stick in some copper rod and green stuff round it.

I would have painted the silencer a different colour: to fit the theme of they can take it off mid game type thing. other than that it looks cool.

*takes note of colours*
Looks like I'll have to change the golds on my Slayers to red. That doesn't really matter though, since I'm planning on putting more work into the Night Lord stuff anyway.

No, because Psychologically it looks like it doesn't come off, therefore people will think it's a bastardised barrel. And plus, black silencers look cooler.

I think I see Idjs point. If the silencers are black, they look like they are seperate components, rather than part of the barrel itself.
