Epic
No idea aggressors or terminators probably
Smooooooooth
Both my printers understand the aerodynamics of imperial aircraft!
I’m starting to get the impression you made up all this being bad at painting thing just to mess with us, because wow
bamboozled
We’ve been positively fooled
quite thoroughly tricked
downright deceived
It was a trap
Very crispy. What those sneaky golden boys doing tho?
I finished them yesterday! I'll repost a pic for your sake
The golden boys are my first big box I finished. I got the combat patrol and a box of wardens, and I'm considering a rhino for my sisters
Witchseekers good lad
Yep, I chose witch seekers since flamers are hot, and the sword ladies because swords are cool
They need a stand alone hq kit already
I kind of wish I went with a grey or white fur on the coat for more contrast but I'm happy

Im about to repaint mine cuz I'm dumb
Strip then repaint
That's the spirit. I haven't repainted any minis yet since I'm forcing myself to live with the mistakes and sins of the past
..also so I can see how I improved over time.
I have my first fantasy army for the same reason
I've thought about buying a fantasy army, or at least a box
I fucking love the squig herd
I think the jump from golden space warriors to angry ball of teeth is funny.
Stole the idea, tried to do more than just a head swap and am loving the colors. Pic sucks cuz my camera is scratched.
I like the silver actually
Ancient gw chainmail pots that I covet lol
I'm newer to mini painting so I'm absolutely hoarding my paints and trying to make sure they never dry out
Ive been thinking of transfering all the paints to dropper bottles
Tried it, not fun
You'll lose some paint in the transfer due to them sticking to the transfer surface
Hmmm. I'll consider it.
I'm trying to figure out what I want to do next for my army
Rhino or Dreadnought. Hmmmm.
For your talons or sisters?
Uhhhh. Yes. I don't know. I just paint the fellas to be honest.
I asked earlier and someone mentioned I could use a rhino for my sisters.
Honestly I'm painting my army so I can get that neat bronze pin later this month.
This one.
Oooh mkay. Both are solid choices. Witchseekers in a rhino is pretty fun.
Dreadnoughts are super solid
I just got to figure out what dreadnought I need to buy..
OH SHOOT wait a second I just read that you can bring knights in custodian armies? Hmmmmm.
Oh no oh no heheheh
Yeah lots of people have been running three of the smaller shooty ones
I think I'll go with a knight detachment over the rhino or dread. Now I just need to figure out if I want to paint a big boy knight or the armigers I think they're called
Brother, don't give me ideas...
I hear rumors from eyes that it has 3D printed armor kit somewhere;)
Just finished posing my XV8 Crisis Suit in flight and loving how dynamic it looks. I was thinking of trying something with the proper base to try to make the sand "rippling" under the thrusters, so far the only way I can think of is thick PVA glue that I gently blow to form the ripples then slowly sprinkling sand on it, but open to better suggestions if anyone has done a similar effect
You can also make ripples using greenstuff or air drying clay, then glue the sand on top of that.
I think the thick glue would be best as then you can get a more natural look
I did think about doing something like that with greenstuff, but not sure I'm confident enough in my modelling skills to make it look natural with my own sculpting. I figured blowing the glue would look convincing because it's the same thing the thrusters would do to the sand as well.
Do the glue, easier to get more natural ripples
It's decided. While I love the Iron Warriors, my traitor heart belongs on the eightfold path
Only the nails shall sing for me as I pass into the peaceful embrace of rage
Imma have to buy the WE
new heresy model
perfect
neat
Heresy is definitely getting the better models rn
Lol thanks dude! I've tried to improve on every model, I'm buying my 2nd box tomorrow 🙂
You should be very proud of that
Well I'm thankful all of you have been so helpful answering all my questions 🙂
I found your red butchers XD
Ratiod
Only if you exclusively like space marines and sniffing fw resin
I love both of those things
Perfect! Play heresy
I do!
The kits on GW are resin?
Most non legion specific stuff is moving towards plastic, slowly
But all elgion specific stuff remains in resin aside from a handfull of characters
Glad I did not make a blunder

¯_(ツ)_/¯
Heresy is something, its alot of gun, but its an expensive game to play
The aod box set is pretty good, and i would reccomend it
You get 2000 points for 300 bucks
Whicu is a better dollar to point value than even Custodes boxes
Got mine for £144 :3
Gw overcharges us here in thr states because they use pre brexit exhange rates
That’s like the one advantage of living in the UK
Fair
Atleast your not french
Man the queen really did kick the bucket without drclaring war on france first
😱
I would but I have no one to play against
I am just painting for fun
Jokes aside that’s actually a pretty scary stratagem
If your us based im sure there are online groups near you that throw down both 30 and 40k
Like damage 3 powerfists or damage 2 combat weapons
Nope null here
It's difficult to even get the models and tools

I live in Qatar and the only store that sells stuff is in Dubai quite a drive
Yea and even the store in Dubai is limited in their selection
Yes much happy world eater noises
You could buy the Horus red butcher models if you’re willing to brave resin
It has begun
Thats not very butchers nails of you
Hes getting a new model in 2 days lmao
Oof
... but its resin
Being happy about being extra killy. That is very butchers nails. Its why they sing
Reain isnt that bad
honestly i'm just glad that world eaters are becoming their own faction finally
Yes. We have juggerlord now
Only one more faction left
The horny marines
Femboy fuck toy marines
I thought they were too busy drowning in warp snuff and daemonett traps
They lack nails
Female space marines ❌
Femboy marines ✅
Best of both worlds
Basically
Nonoononononono
A lovely model
Yesyesyesyesyesyes...Y E S
Im interested
Men of culture,one and all
Why is this chat once again filled with foul heresy
Femboys
truth
I see your only interested in the exceptionally rare
It's what the emperor wants
This is the way
Keep it up and you just might get a surprise visit from slim variant grey knights that just go "uWu" before nuking you out of reality 😄
Intercessor Sergeant done... troopers shoulderpads and weathering to go.
If I had the bits and the skill to kitbash I’d change the ork out for a word bearer
Nice use of the BT shoulder pads
Looks dope
Thanks a lot! Flash of the camera is a bit light this time but i will make new pictures when squad is done completely
Looks also dope... Glad to see the full result ^^
I want to make this so bad
Get the bits mate, there's nothing holding you back but your willing to try. Keep trying until you get the model you want
What paint can I use to get that old leather look on the boots and belts and such? Vallejo pale sand maybe?
vellejo dark chocolate might work
base
Ahh okay, I usually use vallejo game brown leather for the base, I'm just not sure how to highlight it to give it that old worn look
Agrax earthshade makes a good weathered look
Just mix it
Lift out the color with like Paint in a large block and get mixin
Also the worn look is made with several layers of diluted color and maybe even some stippling
Beat me to the post lol. Love the wash you used.
From the Icy planet of Qoluna(my backyard)
The Dark Angels Successor chapter, Knights Umbra, are joined fully by a pledged Freeblade.
My. Hands. Hurt.
man that thing looks awesome
Okay, World eaters do have basic terminators, but not special terminators like red butchers
that seems racist against our bois in green
they had it coming to them
they deserve it
Kill the xenos...
From my perspective, YOU are the xenos...
Chaplain Richter
burnt umber and unbleached titanium
ignore the hobby paint, thrive in the good stuff
a good burnt umber beats out every brown hobby paint by a lot, and I mean a lot.
super easily modifiable with good undertones
but from a high end brand its a whole $12 for a 4oz bottle
Thank you paint master 
nice
good old heavy flamers
getting a sanctorum guard box in the next couple days to do :D
Multi meltas too
i only have a heavy flamer and heavy boltor atm
i want more heavy boltors :D
just lay down the nice thump of heavy boltors onto some heretics
So... i started magnetizing my terminators
But the god damn box gives you 10 right pauldrons and 5 right pauldrons only
i do not like heavy bolters persoanlly
Im looking at going 1 sergeant, 2 thunder hammer/shield bros, 1 dual lightning claw guy with missile launcher backpack, and chainfist shooty bolter boy
Ferda deathwing termies
Finally have done some lore to my crusade... 2 Pages of text. Even my GF loved what i've written and she understood it... Soonish Intercessors will be done and then Land Raider Crusader repaint is on schedule ^^
i kinda like the idea of writing some lore for my sisters
or atleast info about the order that i thought off that they are part of
Multi melta 😂
Yeah but it’s not the same
heavy bolter is better
Glorious melee combat
oooh steel legion
Rhinox hide over a white primer is my go-to for leather base, but might be a touch too red for that image.
Does anyone else think that the horus heresy went exactly to the emperors plans?
Because it went the way it did, he has become far more powerful than he ever was when still "mortal". Because at this point, via worship of trillions of trillion human beings and the daily munching of human souls, he now IS a god
That can't just have been an coincidence
So what you’re saying is the Horus heresy is galactic scale insurance fraud
After all big E is powerful enough of a psycher to still be able to have the sisters of silence see him exactly the way he wants them to see him. And that image is that of a broken man.
But here is the thing untouchables and psychers work on powerscales. So if the most powerful sister of silence is a car battery the emperor is a nuclear power plant. Her aura would never negate his raw power. Sure it would be a car battery weaker, at most it would be halved... but this is the most powerful psycher to ever walk the galaxy since the old ones. A blank or untouchable could never nullify his power
And every single person that interacts with him sees him differently, exactly the way he needs them to see him
Emperor is the universes most powerful corpse I think you mean.
Now he is
Galaxy’s most powerful 5G tower
But that's what he wants us to think just so he can grow his power on psycher slurpys
Shit don't add up is all that I'm saying. The horus heresy is basically the story of him getting "outsmarted" by his tools and toolbox (primarchs and horus). The man could see the future so how didn't he see it coming? Curious
tinfoil intensifies
I'm pretty sure even the most powerful psyker wouldn't want to just sit on a throne for 10,000 years
Man's would be bored as fuck
Would he even need to move his body? At this point he is basically everywhere and nowhere at the same time. Definitely spying on eldar bathing
But does he know the ways of elbow destruction?
Incorrect
I mean now that I think about it the universes most powerful corpse would probably be a necron
Anyway night folks
still incorrect
Old one?
Corpse starch is the most powerful corpse in the universe
How could I be so blind
Because you couldnt see the imperial truth before
Revs chainaxe
Yeah no
Your imperial lies shall not keep me from the bone pile that is my bed.
Good night
hmmmmmm, somethings fishy
No more like human fleshy
He's not even the tower. He's just the blinking red light on top that stops airplanes from crashing.
Kharn the Betrayer is complete
I've been trying to decide on what army to start building from Thousand sons to Adeptus Mechanicus. Something compelled me try out some Death Guard so i got some Plague Marines. Then a day later I got sick. So I'll take the sign from Nurgle and start them up
Good job! Moving fast to
Gigachad Nurgle enjoyer
Buying my 2nd box tomorrow.phobos strike team lesgoooo
Very nice, phobos armor looks so good
And since I'm too poor to afford a full army, a strike team will do nicely
But I posted a picture of my primaris marine in our group chat and now my friends want to teach them how to paint
So that should be fun
Boarding actions looks fun for smaller scale.
Encourage the painting. I'm quite envious of that.
Not joking
Got my gf a starter set for Valentine’s Day, she studies art but even I’m worried for her 
Sir your Dark Eldar miniatures don't count as a girlfriend
This said, if you get your gf a SoB army it may be better
why is it somehow a requirement that women HAVE to play sisters of battle?
fuck that shitty loyalist noise, im sick of it
Now THAT is a REAL womans army
I think you're missing my point
Fair enough
Most woman I've met in 40k played nids
...how many have you met?
None. The Tyranids ate them all.
Only one I've known I think did...Salamanders
A whole 5 lol
Wait, you think you’ve known a woman or you think they played salamanders?
My last partner wanted to play Khorne much to my dismay. But she also cheated on me so she can get fucked.
I think they played Salamanders
That's rough dog
Not to delve too deeply into personal shit but I should have seen the red flags when they lied about being biologically female to start with despite me making it VERY FUCKING CLEAR before we even started dating in the first place, that I literally have no issue dating a trans women, if anything, I prefer it.
So at the end of the day, I suppose its on me.
That's not really a red flag for cheating, just trust issues
I feel like cheating kind of is a trust issue though.
Because if I had never started to doubt shit in the first place, I wouldnt have started to get paranoid about stuff.
The experience definitely creates trust issues
But regardless this channel is about little army men and women not my personal problems.
Lesson of the story is Khornites can once again GO AND FUCK THEMSELVES WITH A CHAINAXE YOU BORING CUNTS.
Can’t be cheated on if you’ve never been loved

Minis love
Dice hate
Remember: you can’t buy happiness, but these warhammer figures have being doing alright so far
Facts! Hobby can be great for mental health
Exactly, small plastic man make brain release happy drug
Sadly we are not into that shit. Leave those slaaneshi thoughts out of this
I mean if it's reved it'd probably be a good vibrator 🤷♂️
Ugh slaaneshi's.
I would never
No no, they’ve got a point
BAHAHAHAH
Too bad you'd be getting the sharp spinny end
Kinky
... I knew you'd say that 
Blood play is a common fantasy 🤣
Alarmingly so
Evisceration isn't though...
Idk have you ever worked retail?
Does working at a sleazy burgerjoint and dealing with the dregs of society count? (Just one of many jobs but arguably the worst one)
You can just say McDonald’s
Oh it does. I'd commit despawn before working in food again
We don't have that here. Quality was better and they is only one joint, not a chain.
Did you just say that you don’t have a McDonald’s? I didn’t think that was possible
Depends for me actually. I know a decent place that I would work at if I desperately needed money
They practically reinvented colonisation
We had McDonald's for like... 3 years then 2007 happened and they left, much to the betterment of our food
Feels good to live on a rock in the North Atlantic
McDonald’s only has conveniency going for it
And cheap compared to other US fast food
Yeah... they failed health inspection here
Nah mcdonalds amazing here in germany
Burger King is shit here for example
Rats and rotten food everywhere
Nahhhhh
Burger king is just shit always
Better than McDonald’s here
Actually prefer burgerking. I don't like eating 7% chicken chicken nuggets
U do have Döners !!
Do you people have no food regulations
I miss Döner
No need mcdonald
We do they just broke em
Wendys is the fast food queen.
But i cannot have wendys 🥹
Mcdonalds. I'm lovin it
Burgerking in Scandinavia is pretty good actually... as well as the Netherlands
The sponsored fast food chain of the adepta sororitas lol
Five guys burgers are great but really expensive
Well to be fair McDonald’s here is only shit if you order delivery
Still I got neither McDonald's nor burgerking here... we do have KFC though
I find KFC can vary wildly
Yes it can
Some are amazing... some are just a bad day on the can
There is nothing in between
Now I'm hungry 💀
:3
Was just about to go ans grab food actually
Its is thy blessed cheat day 😇
I just skip breakfast
Well when you wake up 15 minutes before you need to leave you don’t get a choice really
Sacrificing work for an extra 5 minutes of sleep?
No, I went to sleep at 12:40 last night
My box for the whirlwind Scorpius also came with the same pieces to make the Deimos rhino, so what would look better the single view port or the two the rhino (and 40k whirlwind) use
Double
Double all the way
Yeah the single one looks better on the deimos predator that's what I was thinking
Double with the lights off the single?
Yeah that's what I was thinking I wish they had that for the rhino it looks cool
Makes it more beefy looking
Yeah those headlights just make it much better
I guess we will have to wait until they release the Deimos command rhino and the rhino command predator rhino whirlwind to get it
That would fuck up my day if I did. No breakfast and I'm a zombie for the rest the day
Oh yeah it’s not fun
Feel your pain
Roll ya 5 up shrugs

wakes up in the morning
rolls a 6+ shrug
Fuck now I need to get up
Also wanna know something fucked up?
Well now I'm curious
So my younger cousin (edgy 15 year old) got into 40k lore recently... he is still on the OH mAh GuRd SpEss MaRiNeS, Imperium good stage.... well the little shit asked me: If you could be Isekaid into 40k what would you want to be?
...
Me: ... First of all fuck you for asking. Do you want me to die horribly and have the black blob I call my soul devoured by daemons for all eternity?
Secondly that universe is so fucked that the only sane thing to do is join chaos... and that says something. Nope, no, never, why would you ask me that?
Just become a custodes that's the easy answer
... that's boring though.
Ork
But it at least doesn't challenge your cousins tiny brain tho
Ooh yes
When I was 15 it was when the genestealer cults first came out and I thought they looked cool but I didn't want to be them
... I showed him what happened to the cadian refugees at that one forgeworld. 
Either ork or emperor’s champion
Awwww
Because you certainly won’t have a boring death
Or Cadian anything even before the planet blew up
If you could choose anything you could just become the hivemind
No!!!
Just cheat say you wanna be a chaos god he set no rules
I would not want to be Cadian
That's my point being a cadian is miserable
Catachan?
At least being a Krieger you have the being sad part of your brain not even there when you came out of the birth pod whatever it is vita womb
Yeah I have slowly started to lead him down the road of chaos. He now knows more about hivecity life and servitors than he ever wished
Your two instincts are to shoot or suicide by monster
Have you read krieg?
No I'm lazy and only watch pancreasnowork
Ooh boy
I mean I know a lot of the lore I just haven't had the time to read many books I wanna build my tanks
Vraks is a rabbit hole
I have read the entire imperial armor books about badab and vraks
And all the horus heresy black books
I listened to it on audible. Krieg are actually less suicidal than you think. They sell their lives strategically.
There is a moment in the book where a krieg death rider charges an ork biker killing the ork, totalling the bike, killing his horse and mangling his own body so badly that he is about to die... the thing is, if he hadn't done that his Cadian allies would likely have died. So he weighed his life against theirs and judged that many lives and an officer outweighed his own @ornate bramble
Unfortunately some folks out there take the meme descriptions of 40k to literally
It's definitely a lot less haha suicide and more strategic about where and when to die but it can be a lil bit more than your average guardsman, there's just more of an understanding of when and where to die to save the most comrades and take the most enemies with you
Save comrades or take the most enemies with you
Rip those guys that got turned to soup on vraks by the death guard
Worse than the death guard they're the purge, those guys hate everything
Yeah... that's rough
How often is groups like the red corsairs or the blood gorgons painted
Blood gorgon's were on the front of the chaos marine codex I think for 7th or 6th edition
What edition was dark vengeance? Dark angels and Crimson slaughter box?
First CSM codex I bought was 8th and had the blood gorgon as the cover
Dark vengeance was 6th and 7th starter box I think
Oh wow
Has it really been that long?
No way
I started the edition before dark vengeance that's wild.
Stepped away for 6 and 7th tho
Hold up Oct 2012
Are Plague marines sociable ? Do they play poker and stuff? Or they are just vomiting all day long
The meme is that all Nurglites are all holly jolly since everyone is a big loving family
or something
However, pretty much all of the Daemons...aren't
In fact aside from the Beasts and Nurglings, every single one is some form of depressive or vindictive. Or victimized
Plague Toads apparently flee the warp en masse when they can, because Nurgle himself uses them as stress balls whenever he gets pissed off. And other daemons use them as sport
Plaguebearers are all depressive punks, Rot Flies are...Rot Flies, etc.
So in reality they're probably reclusive shut-ins who cuss everyone out unless their brains are too rotted to even properly think, and only come together when ordered or when they decide that their brand of misery deserves company
I think the question that should be asked is, Do Chaos Marines even have time to be sociable?
well they smell like shit so who cares if they are sad
they are still an afront to our lady in pink either way
I just feel like the Traitor Marines are constantly busy doing some shit
pretty sure CSM are just as sociable if not more than regular Astartes
maybe Word Bearers and Emperors Children got some nice chatting time
World Eater's social time is probably just gladiator matches
Word bearers are just out in the warp building their silly little churches
And you are an affront to our crimson lord. Fite meh 
Quite soothing actually. Get your daily dose of adrenaline today
Would a stress ball calm the nails? 🤣
guys guys, you should hear lorgars teaching and all the gods are great, who's with me?
Hey that's the one I started with
Plague toad cricket
Was a good one. I still have the chaos half sitting around
Word Bearers are pretty much still how they were pre-heresy, IIRC
Just, y'know. Evil Spaghetti Monsters
Yoooo look at that!
My first minis jesus that was ages ago
Those are your first?
First Warhammer dudes
Wowie pretty good
Oooh I love the top possessed
Any idea what shade could darken the white cloak
I’m worried agrax might be too dirty
Agrax with water !
Thinned contrast white?
Oh God here's one of my first minis 🤣
.... probably not, they would likely sing at a crescendo
Sorry I am a fresh world eaters recruit mkay 🤣
Ah not yet implanted I see

Nothing in there to Implant ngl
The nails
Head empty
Ah, warp ghost I see
Wanna see something heretical?
Mayhaps
Its a "world eaters mini"
Can't be anything worse than what I've concocted for my IG Dudes
Yes
You turned them all into servitors
Didn't you
I give you Karen the betrayer
She'd like to speak with your chapter master 🤣
No, I needed an excuse to give Guardsmen railguns
So I cut them off from the Imperium and had them constantly beset by the Tau to the point they ran out of materials and started stealing Tau stuff
And they get away with it because:
1: no fucking Inquisitors
2: no Commissars (all dead)
3: every single remaining Techpriest is a Xenarite
To quote an old friend "I bought the fuxking toys and I'll do as I please with them"
They can't even properly communicate with the Imperium, and after looking at the actual galaxy map there's no real reason for it other than saying the Xenarites don't want to lose their little playground and are pulling the same shit they pull with Stygies with the entire damn system
Oh gods no
That is to say, they uploaded a virus to the entire Imperium that constantly deletes any and all traces of the little enclave they have within the fucking Enclaves
Sweet jesus
Don't worry I won't even use her lol
This is so cursed 🤣
Kharn with a double handed axe is a definite win
And abbs!
BURN IT!
Filthy novice painting filthy heretic.
Very solid work
🩹 for his elbow
Solid. His arm looks uncomfortable though. He may want to see the doctor for that
how it feels after you sleep on your arm the wrong way
My wife likes xenos filth 
Damn, nice tabbard and head details
just primed first 4 models
will see how they turn out
using mechanicum standard grey
Box o grass tufts for $7.99 best purchase I’ve made in years
Ngl that looks really good.
Also I got this fuckin dude
I will never get over how awful the necron Locust destroyer models are
I simply took a rock, painted the surface part wet mud, the sides rough iron, traced out where my models feet would go. Then glued tufts upon tufts
Ive only been modeling for two months, you can probably do a much nicer job than me
Maybe if it’s thruster things weren’t curvy like a butt, it would look cooler
It just kinda reminds me of a reject from the movie Robots
What you going to give him?
For me it’s the solid green glowstick of a gun
Dam
Chain sword, and probably a helmet. I suck at faces and skin
Looks like someone stuck an otter pop on a Gauss flayer
I paint to paint, I don’t play the tabletop
I'm giving mine a powerfist
I tape them to an IKEA bowl
literally painting him now XD
Oh yeah, I’ll probably put that on his other hand
That extra sword+hand it comes with is going on one of my primaris hellblasters
I’ve gotten decent at cannibalizing parts and sticking them where they shouldn’t go
I tried to attach extra gun to my hellbrutes shoulder so it had power scourge + whatever plasma thingy it has + rocket pod on the shoulder. Couldnt make it work properly so ended up taking it off mid painting and just covering up
Demonette models are the worst fucking thing ever
You need to use industrial glue or pinning to keep the demonettes from falling apart 24/7
$35? getting absolutely robbed bro
sick mini tho
Hmm in my local GW store this Mini is about 27,50 €
just get a resin printer man
No money for that tbh... and i like getting the official stuff...
I live in the middle of shithole town hillbilly ville, it’s the only place nearby that I’ve got for minis. I’ll pay a little more if it means I can see it with my own eyes before I buy it
But I get what you’re saying
you actually paid slightly less than retail
the GW price just surprised me
Pay the premium for the thicc boi
I’ve learned to just ignore the price unless it’s triple digits or above 50 for one fookin dude
Oh by the way, if you want to build him with the helmet, be sure to put the helmet on before you glue his front and back together
Otherwise you'll be in for a painful time
I can attest to this
Thanks! Yeah I put the torso and legs together, then everything I keep separate until it’s fully painted
But yeah his armor encloses his head, tbh I am probably gonna do the helmet it comes with instead of the helmetless options
I suck ass with flesh, unless it’s like necrotic flesh on a flayed Necron
The new guy whose hood didn’t turn out all to well 😩 and the collection so far.
Better pictures of my intercessor sergeant... the corporal is pretty fone also... pics will be pisted tomorrow or so..
Even when i don't like any non imperial faction, those minis are lookin' very nice in my opinion!
Wow that’s some steady work. They look amazing. oh and Ty 😎.
Try to do my best to get them battle ready for narrative crusade that is planned and also for some kill team fun with friends or smaller skirmishes... Still having to do 3 Intercessors and 4 Neophytes... after that battle patrol box is done and i will go on to reassemble and repaint my Land Raider Crusader.... Aaaand after this i have to paint the Army starter Box of my Leagues of Votann 😅 too much building and painting left xD
I’m enjoying the painting so far might get into actually playing down the line only been at this just over 3 week now. Went a little overboard and got a tonne of figures only painted just over a quarter of the death guard I got lol plus I got a box of adeptus sororitas aswell 🤣 so much fun.
All primed
think over all I used to much on em since my can ran out at the end of morty
but I got em all
Hehe I’ve been using pot base coats so far got a can of primer coming in the mail hehe. Seems much better way of doing it. They look so much smoother
what I did was use bottles of soda/gatorade or whatever
put blue tack on the cap and it was super useful
You will hate me, with exception of Tanks i do any painting by hand... And i also assemble parts after they are primed or completely painted.... Only Weathering and some effects are done after assembling the single parts.... 😄
Something I learned, if you want decent blood splatter. Dip your brush deep into your blood color, then blast the brush with compressed air
Ah junkfood and painting... good old Domino's Pizza xD
Yeah same. Although I plan to try batch painting for my assault intercessors
That’s what I started doing after my first marine. The getting into the tricky parts was hmm to tricky 🤣
Yeah thats it, i also want to get the parts that mostly nobody get to see... I have some friends that only prime and give basic coat on those "hidden" parts... but for my aesthetics this is not enough so i make it my way... I'm a bit slower than my other friends but much more happy with the results
And i was so insane that i also have written two pages of background lore to my crusade and also designed an heraldic shield for the crusade 😅
👌 commitment. Me like.
This is a thing that comes out of my medieval reenactment hobby... BT's are in short a mixture of medieval templer order and teutonic order...
So many of the things that are mentioned and shown on BT's are common to me... I can't just have a nameless crusade without a history... BT's are the "Knights of the Emperor" i want to suit this xD
the world eaters transfer sheet
Nice transfer sheet... i'm quite happy to have 3 D BT Symbols already on the shoulder pads ^^
nice
Transfers are a nightmare
I have yet to attempt it
Does anyone know when the new khorn berzkers come out
Just gotta do eyes and lightning
Current WIP
Bought 3 of the 5 man primaris intercessor sprues. Will I be able to make 15 unique space marines? Or just like the same 5 space marines 3 times
Nice got her myself just gotta assemble her aswell
been fun so far ALOT OF details to figure out how i wanna paint it up still not sure on cloth color yet
Mine will 100% match my own little custom order by being very gold and gilded:)
But first the other 6 paragon warsuits that came in my box
Applied some flesh shade to all my good looking ladies lol
Don't mind the u painted cherub
mine is kinda trying to mix her main colors with my armys been learning Nmm to do stuff havent touched metal pains in a bit
i still havent touched my cherubs
lookin good so far
let me see
2 custom poses in those
custom poses not as easy these days
Yeah
warm water bath goes BBBRRR
Had to cut off one hand from another
Also I should have painted one of the sisters hands in steel cuz she actually has a prosthetic
The front left one with the bolter
Didn't notice that it's a robot hand until very late lol unless I leave it gold aswell
Is that the push fit sprue?
Damn those are nice
I sadly don't have enough colors and good brushes yet
You not gonna paint the fleur de lys on the heavy bolter?
baby steps i still dont think i have good enough brushes
Uhh lemme check
flur and wings are white on them and guns are kinda greyish it works looken atem on table but picks kinda odd with lighting
I don't think so no, they look like glue fit
well alota folk usin it
Also this box is cool
2 paragon boxes alone would have been 90
Plus morven is cool aswell though I do mainly want celestine
Celestine and some other named characters after this box
same celestine always the one sold out
She isn't sold out for me but I grabbed this one instead cuz more models
Gotta make celestine an army to command first
My whole order is based around her x3
mine basicaly is i snaged vahl cause she was in stock next time i can snag celesine i will may have to GW order tho
Am glad I got so many online tabletop stores in germany
Celestine is always in stock on one
Nice
thos are fun to paint also
used to be alota shops around here but now only a couple really and amazon hasnt had celestine since oct
If you are in the EU try fantasywelt or kutami
i'll likely snag a box of pargons at some point but i would have to green stuff cloaks like vahl has
US atm
whats cheap good FW sites?
Well I gotta go now and pick someone up from the station but I do plan to try green stuff aswell
tc
pink armour, interesting, interesting, yes.
Perhaps some black leather to compliment it?
And just a few tentacles and claws to tastefully spice things up perhaps.
White scars leviathan dreadnought my beloved
is purple kinda amethyst like. if i there was rules for chaos sisters think we know where that would be going for sure
SOB just got way cooler
"yo gurl i can smell some hot genes in you" Kroot Chad from Pech
Dont see a lot of different coloured Sisters
Its always like
Black red white or some form of it
With argent shroud being silver white
well i mean theres technically no rules saying you cant make your SoB chaos worshippers
And theres been a few that fell to Slaanesh in the lore
I'm waiting for these to drop as a solo box, they're so cool
Dorn.
Wish I had a 3D printer. I’d put Larry David’s head on a commissar
Very nice! I just finished a predator tank last week. I look forward to seeing it all painted up
New saturday and New figurines from the collection !
Question but: fuck Lorgar?
is superglue better for sub assemblies
Not fuck but head on spike is acceptable.
Fuck Erebus
He's the chuckleMcFuck who ruined everything
I'd say launch him into the sun but that'd just ruin an entire solar system with the sheer pollution released
Horus just a weak simp ass bitch
True sigma leader wouldnt have fallen to chaos so easily..
Nice DG can't wait to paint mine
hnnnnngh why the fuck did they release khorne bois right now... Im the middle of working on my abby daddy bois and now these red fucks are distracting me so hard
Wanna go one day
its ok, the customers suck though
they all like this game called 40k and are way too fanatical about it
Cult HQ FTW
thousands of dollars worth, the paints and brushes etc are hundreds of dollars
‘Mon then
is that yours?
Give em the strongest of bonks
Love how you did the axe
Thank you
The prebator
Did you do the little silver marks by brushing up from the edge in quick little flicks?
That is funefang steel lightly dry brushed over the metal and black
Smart man
@rare hornet I did these bits yesterday, part of a nob
He’s my second mini I’ve worked on so far
The ork army I’ve been using as of late
Love the roller on that battle wagon
Thank you!
I went overboard with the details
Like the yellow wheel having damaged rubber
I love how orks can look silly and believable
I just ordered my first model, a armoured sentinel and some other bits, what im lacking is something to build the model and others soon to be aquired on to protect my desk. Any suggestions?
Any A4/A3 hobby cutting mat?
A small cutting matt is ideal, snippers, exacto blade, glue, and a file if you fancy
I went with this, got a raft knife and some glue coming too
Gonna get a toothbrush solely to clean the parts before assemble with hot water and soap too 🙂
Any other things i should look at doing?
Did you get a forge world model?
First time building a warhammer model?
Yeah
Didnt want to go for a guard yet as they appear finnikey
Going to use the sentinel as a test bed and if it goes well get more armoured elements over infantry, i dont plan on playing the desktop game anyways
Just a collection of awesome shit
That i can (hopefully) take pride in
Ok, but a word of caution is that forge world models arent that great compared to the more traditional models. Since the models are resin instead of the polystyrene usually used they can warp and bend and require more work than a typical model. Its completely fine to have one otherwise but itll just need a bit more work
I have a eldar cobra super tank that needs more work with filler and filing
Isnt forgeworld the official ones though :/
Forgeworld is the side producer of GW
yea just doing a off color scheme then i'll have a coverted one later down line
Games workshop sells the better more beginner friendly models
Whereas forgeworld is more for the bigger and obscure stuff
Don’t worry about it, just make sure you scrub your model first and it should be fine
And make sure to prime it too
Then it will be fine
One thing that confuses me IS the paint
What brand do you use?
Looking on my phone at the model page at the bottom there is a selector for the paints, do i need everything from the classic set?
(Ive not got paint stuff yet)
Oh citadel, go look up citadel paints on YouTube and there are official guides for everything about them
Awesome!
I prefer army painter but they are cheaper in bulk
Im gonna have to look up guides on HOW to paint anyways lol
You can also go to hobby lobby and they sell paints labeled ‘model paint’ who are usually fine out of the bottle
They uploaded a video late last year for how to actually use the paint lmao
I was so confused for ever
XD
I use a water dropper to help thin my paints
But getting a below average sized paint brush wet should be around the same amount of water
One of those sqeezy things that drops a single drop of water?
army painter and valejo I have heard are good
Yea army painter use to be meh unless you added paint balls, but now they come with the paintballs so they are probably one of the best ones
is possible use spray primer
so easy and smooth to use
Arks list for the day
Beautiful
Made the local toxic guy rage quit turn 2 😇
you do the lord's work
To be fair he shot me with 19 mining lazers....
Guess total dmg
4?
3 🤣
Genestealers
oof, sounds like today wasn't their day
I have no clue how to fight votan. The fortresses are kinda bs
To be fair I've seen a squad of deathwing terminators lose a fight to 15 boys
poor guy couldn't catch a break all game
Oh nooo
we did a rematch today though and oh it was so close
it all came down to who won a single fight won the game
his terminators did much better this time
but damage 3 meganobz are not to be messed with
Slowly but surely seeing improvements, def lots to improve but I enjoy the heck out of it
Nurgle boys built
It's the forge world model on the store, I will get that skilled eventually
im scared to put a brush to the praetor model i bought 😦
Why that?
lots of detail im scared of fucking up
ive only ever painted a ironclad dread before
You got parts of the dread left? If yes use them to get used to paint things, try to grow on painting parts that are not really needed... and if this is not enough i recommend to buy a standard squad or so at the next possible moment and just learn to paint them before doin' the praetor ^^
Also i recommend to watch some tutorials on YT they are often helping out with "how to"
i did buy a tac squad of mk6s but they havent arrived yet
i think ill hold of on the praetor till i have some more practice for sanities sake
Thats okay ^^
Did ye win?
Yes, only just. It came down to turn 4 and whoever won the fight between 4 deathwing terminators and 3 meganobz won the game
Current BT crusade detachment... 2x intercessors 4x neophytes & 1x land raider crusader are still missing..
Super close games are what I live for
It was an amazingly close game
It is pretty good!
getting my paint shopping carts ready, what pallete should i get?
hot
sta-wet, the hobby based ones are just more expensive for the literal exact same thing, ignore the special papers all those pallets try to sell, its just mid grade parchment paper(baking paper)
Looking good
@neat forge so damn nice
Plasma gun. (Now with mouse Matt butt cropped out 🤣)
Aww sheit.. that’s annoying.
Yep... All 10 brushes in the same shape
The good thing is... I can correct it myself
Spare cash means more stuff 
Uuuuuh, shiny
Me realising I gotta now spend hours building and painting 
Hopeful they don’t snap when you fix em.
some brushes are sold purposely like that, are you sure you didn't buy a set of those instead of the normal straight ones?
Rogal Dorn Proxy
I...cannot see a silver lining for that.
Easier to paint around corners? I guess?
Looks like a good brush for getting into hard to paint areas now
You sure it isn't intentional
They look intentionally bent
What's the brand
I just asked about it. They're coming tomorrow to get the brushes
Is that the Warhammer 40,000
Got my company command standard bearer almost finished, just need to paint the base
Is that necrons I see?
I love Necrons, they were my introduction to 40K
Nice
Currently I only have Flayed necrons and a lone Necron trooper from a beginners 2 pack. I really should get more of them
My town has 1 hobby shop, I was walking around and felt some sort of schizo calling coming from a box of “Flayed Necrons”
And now two months later and I’ve spent probably $300 on kits alone
I was always a big fan of the Borg from Star Trek, so my love for Necrons probably stems from that
starting to regret priming my 10 legionaires white just so i can use black legion contrast to paint them
Should have just primed em black -.-'
Hm
Hindsight is a beatiful thing
Worked wonders on my cultists but that is mostly due to abusing the shit out of different contrasts, but legionaires are pretty much just 95% black so it was totally shit idea
I mean, what some people suggest for CSM is to do the trim first, then fill in the panels with contrast. If you're referring to 30k, where iirc the space marines don't have a lot of trim, yeah, you get all the blotchiness and not many benefits.
For some reason i find it easier to be precise on the trim instead of the open spaces. Much more prefer having the black be under there and then just going 1-2 layers of trim on top of it instead of trying to do the base color without ruining the trim
I feel that
Miss doing "center piece" dudes instead of these copy paste guys
Much more prefer spending endless hours on the details of a single model instead of mass producing 10 almost identical dudes
that's why I like more elites armies(even though I don't have a full army)
while i got myself a sanctorum guard box i also got myself a box of skitarii rangers to be support for my ladies :D
put 2 together already and my god they are easy to assemble compared to sisters
i am not a fan of kastelans
only gonna use the skitarii as support for my sisters might get a techpriest from somewhere that commands them
oh, I play admech so I like all their models
not many people like the amogus robots, while I cant get enough of them
Kastelans are awesome
I love chaos but we have like 5 red and metallic color schemes lmao
Still got the fine details to get done but pretty much finished my new plague marine.
Nice! What did you use for the Horn growth thing?
Aweosme! I love the red you used it looks like they are literally painted in blood
Screaming skull base, abaddon black in the cracks, some reikland flesh shade coats and a few nuln oil coats.
Nice
Second warhammer model lol i think im getting addicted
Very clean for a second model
What's the best army compsnfor Imperial Knights 1k and 2k points?
Gorgeous! Love that red, what chapter is it?
Oh they’re cool. why are they?
its my chaos league of votann
Having just seen the made-to-preorder kill team(s) coming out including some re-released ones will they only be available to order whilst stocks last or will they be available once preorder is finished?
thank you, its salamander chapter
Getting back into the swing of marine painting
Finally kasrkin
Ordered some minis on ebay not realizing I had set my old address as the shipment place. They haven't shipped yet so hopefully the seller sees my message before he sends them
They're coming from London though,so I got time
Really nice, especially for your 2nd model
Very crispy leather
I’m new to the table top and I just ordered my first army for 40K. What kinds of supplies do I need?
Some clippers, form of exacto knife and plastic glue is a start
I have only had the time to put the wash on his chest today
Findfly 10Pcs Gundam Modeler Basic Tools Craft Set Hobby Building Tools kit for Professional Model Assemble Building. Package Include: 1Pcs x Side pliers 1Pcs x Manual model tools file 1Pcs x Pen knife 1Pcs x 5Pcs spare blade 1Pcs x Polishing cloth 2Pcs x Double-sided polished bar 2Pcs x Tweezers...
this is everything you need
also a building matt wouldnt hurt
painting and stuff is different of course but to actually build use that
Pathfinders Killteam have been built. Getting the Kroot Farstalker Kinband Killteam soon.
First of the boyz done as a practice run
a flush clipper, a few nail files, plastic glue, and an exacto knife. Never buy those hobby kits. They really suck, you pay a a lot for dogwater quality. For paints, professional fluid acrylics will be noticeably better than hobby paints. Brushes only buy from artist companies, not hobby companies. Hobby companies get artist companies to make them then charge 500%+ more
for cheap clippers, dont venture outside of Hakko or Xuron. Seriously
I can see the finish line.
More progess
O fuck those are ballin'
Any recommendations for sand pigment powder?
hey guys
Naked magnus O.o
HIS PENIS IS OUT
AAAAAA

Magnus the Red Rocket

First attempt at using solid green stuff tho fill this guy's shoulder and my first 3 skitarii
Dicks out for all the lost thousand sons
The swords got me hot and bothered 😮💨🤤
Amen
Sage of ligmar but I like dorf
Hey fuck you, we don’t hate on you for being small. Do we?
Smol shovel boi is best boi
Might paint it metal but idk
Blue has grown on me lately lol. The base also looks great
The ladz
Always nice to see some more bad moonz orks
Trying to make the mud look well muddy
Harder than I thought
Bad moonz actually feel more enjoyable than Goffs
Khorne gang
