- In this video, you will learn how to create a scary Chaos Night Lord from the Blackstone Fortress Lord. You will also learn how to build two different bases, including a 40k graveyard and the space marine trapped under ice base. If you're feeling awesome, you can donate to help me create more videos :-)

that submerged frozen space marine base has to be one of the coolest bases Ive ever seen holy shit
I totally agree whit this comment!
@@warvisiongaming40k11 how you made "ice" for this base?
Георгий Черный if you watch my other video ‘how to paint night lords’ it shows the rest of the process on how to make the ice.
My mind was genuinely blown!!
That base is the toppest tier. What kind of resin did you use on the ice base? Sorry if I missed it.
edwin pacheco it’s either epoxy resin or uv resin, I’d assume
Iv looked all over RUclips and this night lord is the only one that really matches the lore
Agreed
Love the practical solutions you had. One of the best and simple conversions I've ever seen!
"This has been going for.. yonks! That's why it looks a bit.. how's it going?" XD lol
I've been waiting a long time for a conversion channel that is focused on the step by step rather than just showcase and commentary. I look forward to more in the future!
Man sometimes youtube recomnds some gold stuff. Good to find you man
You used to say that to me
Saame i am already subscribed to most mini hobbyist and wargammers so its always nice to find a new 1
Please do more conversion vids!!!
Great job. I was wondering if you’d be able to, could you do a Word Eaters conversion? I’m making a World Eaters 30k army and I’m planning on making a 40k Army after
Buy the aos korne dudes and put chainswords on them
I would love to do some World Eaters. I will soon. I would suggest as felix crab says, buy the AoS Blood Warriors kit and use their helmets. there are also a lot of Khorne icons you could use on the sprue, as well as axes etc.
Nice idea. I’ve never been a huge fan of the huge khorne bezerker style helmets but I’ll give it a try
Matthew Merrell you could try the FW world eaters conversion set. Those helmets are smaller.
That was an idea. I had planned on using those for the sergeants and characters and just cut the bunny ears off for the other units
Legion of the Damned figures have great parts to stick on your Night Lords. Skullface helm heads, pauldrons that have skulls on which just require some red batwings painted on to to form NL livery and various arms legs and torsos with bones on.
That ice base is insane.
Epic. Ave Dominus Nox!
Night Lord Warcry:
One Dead Guardsman Ha ha ha!
Two Dead Guardsman Ha ha ha!
Three Dead Guardsman Ha ha ha!
(I know im shitposting here...)
I would've used a chain glaive for his weapon but other than that this is perfect
Wow! Nice work!:)
Amazing videos. Editing, style, voice, cut, skills - all top notch. cant wait to see more of them. get yourself patreon and take my money! :)
First thing I checked when I saw the painting video, how do I help this guy do more of this stuff!
Thanks guys I had a patreon but it’s closed at the moment. I appreciate you watching and learning from it :)
I buy a Night Lords book.
RUclips recommendations: Allow us to introduce ourselves.
I could watch this forever. So talented. Im going to convert my chaos lord to Alpha Legion (fingers crossed). Just a quick question. On your painting eyeballs tutorial could I please ask what coulour/s you used for the plague marine armour. Many thanks, looking forward to your next one.
Thanks for your complements :) I will be uploading the plague marine video soon. It will explain everything, just like this nightlords video. In the eyeball video I had only base coated the armour using steel legion drab (the first colour in my plague marine armour process).
Wow that was a superfast reply. Thanks looking forward to that one.
Tamiya extra thin cement and sprue bits in it for a great gap filler
I really like how you describe your work process. It shows so much compassion and love for what you’re doing. Lots of good stuff here
This channel is the reason that it decided to go with a winter theme for my night lords, miss you dude, hope you are well.
Wait wait wait slow the f down did you just make 40k ASMR?
What’s ASMR?
Math M nvm I just looked it up. Yes I did :)
@@Mezgike Wasn't expecting a reply mate xD You're doing those conversions masterfully and your painting is amazing. Subbed and dinged the bell ;D
Math M thanks my mate :)
Dude, this is genius. This looks amazing as well
Holy fuck man... super awesome. Gw should put you on the pay roll. Really well done!
Why didn’t you just make the inside of the helmet flush with the face so that it is easier on you and you would have the effect of someone’s eyes peering out through the helmet-
Looks awesome to me. I would use some ideas for my convertion of that guy.
scared looking at the knife.. a small mistake and viola...red.
Great work mate, always surreal to see the breakdown of such a brilliant looking model.
The small parts you used for the mask are from the Eradication Ray from the Tech -Priest Dominus.
Hey mate,
What was the putty you used on the original base that you didn't go with? Just curious! Thanks! :)
The Big Red Bear the red stuff? I was experimenting with air drying clay. Wouldn’t recommend it :)
@@Mezgike Damn. I'm looking for a cheap putty replacement that's not basically drywall, lol.
The Big Red Bear milliput is very cheap. And I love it
Can you please show how to do a Carcharodon conversation. Great vids
had this for yonks... thats why its lookin hows it goin.
amazing
Where do you recommend getting random bitz for modifying?
Bits dealers on ebay. Also, years of collecting!
Gorgeous model. Personally I would have tried to take the sword from that haunt model instead of using the Power Maul but this video has given me so many ideas to work with.
where is your opening music from?
0:40
Why is his head attached to the body?
Oh well. Just a little bit more work when I make my Word Bearers Chaos Lord (planning to replace the head from the Raptors/Warp Talons box since he'll be a Chaos Lord with Jump Pack).
It's attached because GW made this model 'push-fit', so no glue is required. It's fine, just have to hack the head out. You can try to save it but I've done a head swap on this model twice now and it's hard to save without needing to sculpt the sides back on (that is if you plan on keeping the head for something else).
very cool bit for the helmet. also the power mace.
What was the bgm at the start of this video?
Your so relaxed I'd be swearing at the putty or the face then cut the tip of my nail off . Guess I'm aggressive! Excellent work !👍👌🖖 try bakeing powder for basing plus it has a drying effect on plastic plus other glues..insted of chopping the base why not flip it over and pur the figures into it the use clear flat modeling plastic over the top once the figure is painted.
Yep you could totally try that with the base, it would be much easier to flip it. I just need to have the angle of the rim facing the right way otherwise I won’t be able to sleep. That is also a good idea with using the clear plastic sheet. I’m not sure if it would look as good and you’d probably be able to see the imperfections in the bottom. With resin you can’t see the bottom, it looks like an endless sea
Gotta be honest, I love how it turned out, but the power maul with lightning arcing off of it is an AMAZING idea... Would have been a great osl source too...
Hopefully you'll get to work that idea out and we'll get to see you finish out one day
Watching you cut towards your thumb with a scalpel is triggering my model craft injury PTSD...
Yep, I get myself often. I explain in one of the later videos though, that I have to do it like that for the camera, and normally I cut on the mat/bench which is much safer, obviously. It’s just a bit hard to film it that way because you can’t see what I’m doing.
I know this is old but the AdMech "knobbly bit" is a Tech-Priest Dominus gun. Hope that helps somebody.
Saving the day, 3 years later, like a legend :) thanks mate!
Saw the model a few days ago on Pinterest and lo and behold, this video pops up in my suggestions! Very very cool conversion, I particularly love the ice base. I might borrow that idea to base some of my frozen tomb world necrons!
Hiya. Great conversion and nice to see the Night Lords getting some attention. Basing has got to be one of my favorite aspects of the hobby and I loved both of the options you showed us. The Marine reaching up out of the ice was pretty sick.
This is my first time tuning into your content, so I don't know if any of your other videos are different yet. That said, if I may make a couple suggestions based on this one. There were a couple times where you had a hard time remembering what kits the parts you were using came from. It would be helpful to double check so your viewers know, just in case they want to do things the exact way you did. I'm personally not familiar with the AdMech kits at all, so I had no idea what that gun was. Secondly, a little low volume background music for the whole show would have been great. I know not everyone likes that though.
Thanks for your feedback! My next few videos are already finalised so I can’t take any of your suggestions for those, but I certainly will for future videos.
Fantastic! 🧙♂️
Late to the party, but any idea at all what set that Mechanicus part is from? I have a bunch of Mechanicus stuff, but can't seem to find it. Thanks.
Do you mean the gas canisters on his mask? On the skitarii kit, you know how there are the rifles and then there are those other carbine guns? On those carbines, the little magazines or battery things, right on the end there are little round bits. Chop those off and away you go. You should end up with a half sphere with a little lip.
Man, that milliput looks like a turd
I've watched this a few times and every time I just think "he's a god damned mad genius"
And you are
Might try this with the same chaos lord, but using some of the lord of executions bits...
i was watching the video to see how you made the ice effect and then you just skipped it, you skipped from when you glued him straight to the end where the ice was put in, could I see how you did that and what you used, that was the whole point of watching the video.
In this video I show how to hollow out the base and place the trapped space marine. In the other video (how to paint night lords) where I paint the actual model, I finish it by pouring the resin and painting the ice. Just skip to the end of that video to see the resin pour and finishing the base. I split my videos into 2 parts, how to build/convert and how to paint.
man, that frozen base is so dope. what exactly did you use to fill it up? just glue?
Renay90 thanks bro. I showed the finishing process in the other video, ‘how to paint nightlords’. It’s just a clear epoxy resin from an art store. 2 part resin that you mix and it cures gently over about 5-6 hours. You can get polyurethane resins that cure much more aggressively, over a few minutes, but for stuff like this where I don’t want to damage the paint, I’d use epoxy resin.
Bro, GREAT tip with the paintbrush for smoothing. I use silicone tools but the paintbrush wont lead to anywhere near as much shift in the sculpted part. Very cool idea (especially for milliputt coz it gets so dry)!
Yeah I always try to keep the milliput wet, but not too wet or it turns into mush. The paint brush has many uses :)
Fucking love this
i wonder how he manages to keep his hands so still? he could be a surgeon! XD
wolfy boy thanks wolfy :) just practice and trying to stay calm. I also don’t drink energy drinks or any of that stuff, I do drink coffee though, and I notice the difference when I do. My hand will feel a tiny bit unsettled. I just try to stay calm and have relaxed breathing. It’s also a good idea to brace yourself. I will mostly join both hands together while I paint, one hand holds the model, the other hand holds the brush/tool, but holding them together gives each hand stability and support. If they shake, they will shake together, hope that makes sense.
@@Mezgike yes, it does. i keep getting impressed when watching these, even though i have seen it before. XD the first time i was like "waow! that looks amazing! he can't improve it!... holy shit! he improved it!" for like, 4 times. XD it's amazing. it's like watching magic.
Absolutely incredible work. Really enjoyed watching you build both bases & the sculpting tips in general are seriously useful.
your sculpting skills are realy on the next level... right there in the top notch section, next to your painting skills ^^ very impressive! also wanted use this chance to say thank you. i get alot of new ideas by watching your vids, so im not just entertained but also creatively pushed. that makes me double as happy i (re)discovered your channel by coincidence not to long ago ^^ keep up the good work, i hope we will get see alot more of your amazing miniature conversion/painting in the future =)
Thanks so much, I'm so glad I can help inspire you to push your painting.
Hecking chain link! Your incredible mate... absolutely masterful.
Thanks :)
Impressive!
Most impressive! ;D
I've been looking for that knight of shrouds mask for ages, can't find anybody selling it and I don't really want to buy a £20 hq that I won't use, even then, the mask is the only bit I can use for converting.... Ah well...
How about taking a standard CSM helmet and using green stuff and some wings rough cut from sprue then built up with more green stuff to convert your own version of it? Give it a try you might surprise yourself at what you can achieve.
Never thought I'd get scared and educated at the same time, but here we are.
please make more video! You are just awesome!
Truly amazing work! 🙌🙌🙌 💪💪💪
Thank you 🙌
Very impressive, have subscribed, all the best Garry
Cheers Gary!
What’s next good sir?!?
What about the White Scar?
@@Mezgike can we get a black legion tutorial? And your patreon?
That base is my fetish.
Amazing. The frozen base is genius.
You've got amazing talent, and I love the ice base.
One thing I'd prefer is if you scripted your commentary more - planned it out and communicated more succinctly.
Thanks for your feedback Telek. My next few videos are already finalised so I can’t use your suggestions for those but for future videos I definitely will. Thanks again
@@Mezgike thanks. Subbed, the videos are really great.
Just to note that the weapon on the sprue isnt a power maul, it's a thunder hammer
Oh ok thanks for the correction :)
another awesome video, thanks for sharing!
Nice
Where is the White Scar paint video?
Coming soon
Great result and even better presentation. Consider me subbed.
where did you get the waving hand?
Intercessors kit
That was nice and relaxing; with a cool mini at the end.
I love that ice base so much that I really want to try it out!!! How did you get the cracking in the ice of the resin? Was it a special type of resin, or something else?
It’s just normal clear resin. Have you watched my other video, how to paint nigh lords? It shows how to paint and crack the resin in that video.
@@Mezgike Oh, I hadn't seen that! Thank you so much for pointing in me there!!
Holy crap! That ice base was awesome!
fantastic job and idea. subbed as soon as i saw the painting vid. can't wait for the next vid
Thanks so much
Is that a bag of miliput or poop?
Haha this is what happens when it gets a few years old, after being in the heat. Still works :)
Okay so with you the painting is the easier part.😜
Definitely! Well it’s the most fun
I love it. That's a great idea.
kept seeing images of this base pop up on instagram, still just as amazed seeing it again now, crazy talented, definitely inspiring me to stick a space wolf underneath my Ahriman
That’s awesome to hear. If you get it done, tag me on Instagram I’d love to see it :)
Mezgike I definitely will do, I’ve got a tournament coming up in may that i need to paint like 200 orks for but as soon as theyre done im cracking on with this base!
OH MY GOD THIS IS INSANE!! AWESOME! YOU ARE AWESOME!
Glad you like it :)
Congratulations on a thousand subscribers dude
Woohoo, thanks my mate :)
HOLY SHIT IS THAT AWESOME!
Great job. Sweet conversion.
Can you do a tutorial on your plasma OSL? it looks top notch.
Already done, will upload soon
@@Mezgike I look forward to it. Again, beautiful conversion.
It's Mallex Jones
yeaaaahhh mate, nice one
Do you do commisions?
Not just at the moment sorry. Maybe in the future
Amazing
Amazing work!!
From which Kit do you take the arm?
Do you mean the one on his base? The arm on the base is from the standard intercessors kit
@@Mezgike Yes the one on his base ^^ thx
@@LPMadhouse no worries, if you get stuck just ask. I will be making an updated video of this base, to make it simpler.
What did you use for the ice? Just water effects?
Watch my other video which explains that part
@@Mezgike No, it doesn't. You just refer to "resin pour". Is it clear resin? Did you mix in paint to create the blue-ish hue? Or paint the bottom? Don't get me wrong, I love the base. It's one of the best I've seen and I'd love to do similar bases for my Wolves, but the end of the video seems a bit hastily done. I could have used a tiny bit more details as I'm still learnning to create bases
Mikael Rasmussen I misunderstood what you meant sorry. It is just clear 2 part epoxy resin. No colour added. The colour comes from painting the surface.
@@Mezgike ahh, okay. Thank you very much!
4400th sub btw
Thanks a lot :)
Please for the love of god, showcase at the start of videos.... amazing though.
Awesome!
Get stuck in!
Did.. did he go UwU?
Hooroo! My grandad used to say it, it means ‘see ya later’.
@@Mezgike Uhuru
The way you use that knife scares the shit out of me.
Cool vid really annoying that u did show the whole process
The whole process is shared across 2 videos, if you haven't watched the other one "how to paint night lords" then get into it :-)
@@Mezgike lol i realized later when i looked at more of your vids seen the other one really great job man love it
Iggy I suggest some music?
You could take that clipped off face and put it over the face of your converted archon in reference to the REALLY old archon model. Lol
Came here from Reddit
Where on reddit please? :)
