[lavish crescent]

They all fight on the front line, shoulder to shoulder

Can someone please me a dm with any news on the adeptacon

Gotta sleep

[coarse badger]

If I'm awake I'll send you stuff

[lavish crescent]

Cheers bro

Big guess but we getting the lion back

No doubt

[coarse badger]

I hope it's a cop out

Would be VERY funny

[lavish crescent]

Why?

Ngl

It would

[coarse badger]

Imagine it's Luther

[lavish crescent]

Lion is traitor

[coarse badger]

That'd be such a fuckin rug pull

[coarse badger]

Comes back to kill Chaos Lion

If we get Lion we get Luther 100%

And hopefully Vortigern

[lavish crescent]

But still would fucking awesome to see the fallen rejoin dark angels

Cypher joins back

The dark angels fully form back up

Chaos would be fucked if that happens

[midnight locust]

Hm. Debating if I want my Cadian command squad in the mud or in a nice “trench” command bunker

[coarse badger]

I say the latter

[lavish crescent]

An absolute cock tease would the lion getting pokeballed

Just the necrons appear, pokemon the lion and disappear

Infront of everyone

Just pull a clonegrim

[woven verge]

They go on either side, if you remove him from the seat and inspect the model you can see two rectangles on the body of the hellstalker thats where the leash goes, as for how he sits pics below

There ya go, i left my guy unglued from the stalker until i paint him, and his leash broke D:

[devout lake]

You could always cut the hand off and put a bolt pistol

[woven verge]

But see what Im talking about, with the rectangles for his leashes to seat into?

[devout lake]

But thanks man this is a big help. I'm painting it separately but damn it feels like a pain to sit the guy down and glue the straps

[woven verge]

Np glad to help ^^

[coarse badger]

Truescale termites anyone?

[sage matrix]

Sorry for the dump

But just finished this 😈😈

[sudden notch]

Man i should make assault intercessor kill team but with khorned berserkers

[trim hare]

that's some impressive work on the blood!

[naive umbra]

I'm curious for characters like this, do you prefer just the head, or their badass special helmet? I tend to favour helmeted options myself, but a lot of people seem to build as just the bare head face

[coarse badger]

I love helmets

Faces are cringe and stupid

Only time your head should be visible is when you're being beheaded at an execution

[naive umbra]

Even then, paper bag

I'm the same, like I'll probably pick up Commander Shadowsun some point soon, and she's got such a cool helmet but everyone builds her with the ponytail.

[brazen notch]

Them updated Terminators

After 15 long years

Finally they got updated

[coarse badger]

NGL I'm most happy about these

[brazen notch]

The new models for underworlds

Are chefs kiss

Finally some magic sigmarines that dont look boring

[dusk osprey]

I NEED IT

I NEEEEEEEED IT

[coarse badger]

The utter CHADcast energy from Domitan

First new model I've seen with no tactical rock

[brazen notch]

He’s picking up tactical debris

Which is ten times better

[coarse badger]

Yeah it's very self aware, I love it

[naive umbra]

GW design meeting: Hear me out, what if he is throwing the tactical rock?

[coarse badger]

Genius move

[brazen notch]

https://youtu.be/X98ImCbhjnI

Updated Termie Librarian

And I guess Sternguards?

Lots of Bolter Combi Flamers

[grizzled jolt]

I'm not that great at taking pictures but where a complete bullgryn squad.

[coarse badger]

Bud of mine said primaris tactical maybe?

[brazen notch]

Maybe, but i think its time for better veteran options now

Hellfire Redemptor Dreads too

[coarse badger]

Oh you mean making "Veteran intercessors" more than worse intercessors with white helmets

[brazen notch]

Veteran Intercessors were the worst addition like goddamn

[coarse badger]

They got like what

+1 to damage and lost obsec

[brazen notch]

Pretty much

[coarse badger]

I don't even play I'm just a very big fan of 1st company stuff/ the veteran models

[brazen notch]

If they were allowed to be more customizable itd be nice but even then its crap

Now we’re all waiting for the ever needed

Jump Pack Marines

[coarse badger]

There's a massive rules overhaul apparently

From what friends tell me it's adopting a lot of ideas from AoS

Mostly good ones

[brazen notch]

Yeah I read the gist of it

But Im not a serious tabletop gamer unfortunately

So it dont matter to me

[coarse badger]

I don't even play, not a numbers guy and no local interest

[brazen notch]

https://tenor.com/view/handshake-predator-arnold-hi-hello-gif-9920452

[plush swift]

apparently it's tyrannic war veterans returning

for the new tyrannic war with leviathan

since they won against orks in the octarius sector

also, the new nid models are the 2nd edition models for nids

screamer killer

neurothrope

and the tyranid shrike returns

[coarse badger]

How delightfully cursed

[upbeat carbon]

Well how sad

No Inquisition…looks like they really might be on the way out

[coarse badger]

Idk inquisition have some newer models

My god, it's him, Dark Jonson

[upbeat carbon]

Now that is the better side of the news, yea. Great Primarch mini.

The new question is; if GW is to equalise the ratio between Traitor and Loyal Primarchs

Who will be the 3rd Loyalist?

[coarse badger]

Probably Jagathai or Corvus

[dusk osprey]

Hey, my dad has one of these. As a young lad, I always thought it was the coolest model because it weighed like 400 tons

[coarse badger]

Get ready for an upgraded one then, boss man

[dusk osprey]

I dont even play nids and I'll buy it

[coarse badger]

Hopefully Nids will become less absurdly expensive

Somehow I doubt it though

[plush swift]

now it's gonna get a new model >:)

[plush swift]

they will in the starter box dude, I gotta find someone to share it with

[coarse badger]

I just want more of these goons, man

[upbeat carbon]

Imagine converting a regiment of these into Feudal World Guardsmen 🤤

[coarse badger]

It'll be great for conversions yeah

Personally I like GSC/skitsrii combos more for medieval looking guard

[upbeat carbon]

Ah ok fair

I just happen to think this is close to text, so to speak 😅

[coarse badger]

Idk if I like the more medieval look, always was a fan of the Renaissance thing the empire had going on

But we'll see how the rest of the range pans out

[brazen notch]

Isnt the Sanguinor coming out this year as well, but like Primarch sized? Its supposed to be an Avatar of Sanguinius no?

[coarse badger]

Iirc it was a sanguinary guard body double who got mega juiced on warp stuff and now serves as the embodiment of the BA's nobility and general good guyness

[brazen notch]

yes we know that

but the rumours for the model itself

[coarse badger]

Oh probably idk, we did get Dante

But BA releases seem to be pretty slow

Like when did Mephiston come out, 3 years ago?

More?

[brazen notch]

Dante was made in 2019, hes been hidden for a long time

[coarse badger]

Damn GW backlog...

[brazen notch]

yeah, a lot of stuff got backended

[lavish crescent]

Hopefully with the new addition we might get that backlog coming to the surface

[coral anvil]

They just have very very long development cycle.

[brazen silo]

Im only limiting 75$ of my paychecks to warhammer cuz i have important things to buy and a warhammer problem

[rare hornet]

I have no such self control

[brazen silo]

I need a new phone and i want to takd my boyfriend out more and my geckos need food

[rare hornet]

I have phone that kinda works, nobody loves me and geckos is understandable

[brazen silo]

Damn

I also gotta buy gas and some stuff for my room

[rare hornet]

Yeah that’s understandable

[teal wolf]

Trailers got me wanting astartes again

[upbeat carbon]

Well at least now I know for sure I must kitbash an Inqusitior if I want one…

(That is up to scale, that is)

[rare hornet]

They got me wanting MOAR

[teal wolf]

Those termies are deliciously thicc

[rare hornet]

Gonna blast through my current marines for the summer

[teal wolf]

Yay plastic crack

[brazen notch]

Imma get Cataphractii Termies first

Love those guys

[tepid lily]

10th edition looks amazing so far 🤔

[heady lotus]

Literally woke up and saw the trailer...... I had a feeling that trailer with the termi and tyranid would have something big to do. Can't wait for the 1st company of ultramarines to be wiped out agin

[tepid lily]

Honestly I really love it when the imperium are failing

Is that weird lmao

So excited for all the new models though

[heady lotus]

It's a shame I don't really wanna do space marines.... I'm going to start a farsight enclave.

[pastel grotto]

it is my god given right and pleasure to announce that the great Devourer consumes.

[heady lotus]

The great devourer gets no bitches

[brisk vapor]

it devours all the bitches

[pastel grotto]

Bold words for someone out of synapse ranges

[heady lotus]

Bold for someone out of mont 'ka range

[dark violet]

Bold for someone within poleaxe range

Tactical rocks

[heady lotus]

One thing I am looking forward is easier access to rules.

My biggest complaint about horus heresy is constantly flicking through two large books to find rules.

[coarse badger]

Most based model is the anti-tactical rock Chadcast

He lifted it up from under him, first model I've seen without one

[teal wolf]

Everyone is welcome in guardian spear range 😘

[dark violet]

No motivation to work

Need to finish 2 more sacresants

[teal wolf]

Just touch the brush

[coarse badger]

I wish SoBs had a spear units

Or wait actually

Lemme see if I can find someone

[dark violet]

They do

And morvenn vahl

[coarse badger]

This would be very epic

[teal wolf]

Can't argue there

[coarse badger]

I've seen kitbashes with the Serberys models I think?

[lavish crescent]

Fight me but the best thing at adepticon is grandpa Lion

[lavish crescent]

Mf I use those books to murder big ass spiders, its effective

[timber wharf]

looks sick

[pastel grotto]

Sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never oh my god

[lavish crescent]

The will of the Emperor and my big fucking book compels you!

[jaunty trail]

Aaah... soon my order will arrive... another armoured vehicle for the eternal crusade

[lavish crescent]

What chapter?

[jaunty trail]

Black Templars ^^

Today my new Predator will arrive... currently repainting my Land Raider Crusader (once upon a time it was in ultrasmurf blue, now it will wear the blackest of black)

[rare hornet]

Ayyyyy

[lavish crescent]

Ayo, black templar as well

Ill be honest though: I have ultramarines but thats only for 30k

[rare hornet]

Playing black Templar and seeing the new librarian terminator makes me glad I’m gonna have a support detachment of grey knights

[midnight locust]

With 10th edition approaching, I’m wondering if it’s worth having one of each variant of weapon for guard (for example instead of 2 Cadian shock troops with plasma and melta I have 1 and then 1 squad with grenade launcher and flamer), or just going straight plasma melta per 9th edition recommendations

Warmaster Titan, to 22m scale

[pastel grotto]

The lad

[slate hill]

The size of an actual child

[simple thorn]

O shit, are those Termagaunts?

[slate hill]

From bottop to shoulder mounted missile battery it's a whoopinn 75 cm

[pastel grotto]

Yyyessssss

[lavish crescent]

Why

[rare hornet]

Because big

[slate hill]

Absolute unit

[tiny jay]

Is there armor sections that go on the legs for this? Looks hella spindly.

The Warhound is still my favorite looking titan model.

[slate hill]

Yeah it does have armor on both the legs, the shoulders and on the sides of the gun

I just haven't printed them yet

[tiny jay]

Ah, cool.

My pile of shame grows, most of my Moebians have shown up.

I got a couple boxes of Blooded (one from the Moroch box)
A couple of boxes of the new Cadians and some Stationforge stuff.

Also got 2 sets of hounds of Xaphan and Ogryn beast masters. They’ll do as pox hounds, might do something with the Ogryn. They’ll be fun as fast attack along with the GBD’s.

Looking to find one or two of the Renegade Ogryn models from FW to pair with a Necromunda Zerker that I ordered for a pair of Mutant Ogryns.

Haven’t decided on what I’ll do for poxwalkers, I did buy a set but handballed them to a friend for his Death Guard.

RN just putting the finishing touches on the plastic parts of Hero Quest terrain for some painting practice.

Not super worried about the list being tourney legal, the main GW shop near my work is owned by a complete douche canoe.

[lavish crescent]

Respect

[naive umbra]

Detachments are a thing of the past apparently. Grab your warlord, grab your models, rule of 3 (unless Battleline keyword then 6), and keep it under points.

[rare hornet]

Yeah I’m not too sure of how it’s going to work

Just going off 9th Ed for the time being

[midnight locust]

Might just make one of each type until I know for sure how things are going to shape out

[tawny topaz]

I got my manipulus

[left egret]

Chat is disturbingly loyalist today

Have a world eaters master of execution

[left egret]

I want the big angry man, but I am poor.
Love the paint job though

[compact umbra]

THATS AMAZING I NEVER THOGUHT OF UISNG NECROMUNDA HEADS ON MARINES

[left egret]

... getting that one to fit was a pain. I'm using a different corps grinder head on the next one

[left egret]

Originally bought the cgc to spice up my old school khorne berzerker helmets and weapons

[compact umbra]

It looks way better then I was expecting, those heads would be amazing for more religious looking khorne followers

[left egret]

Exactly

[compact umbra]

And mroe demonically touched

Weird that religion isn’t as big of a thing in khrone for 40k, it’s a huge part of their identity in AOS

[proven marsh]

This is the way.

[left egret]

Pretty sure that's because the world eaters are less religious and more lost to the nails

[proven marsh]

The hardest one is the Reaper. Gone with a renegade ogryn with chaos heavy weapon.

[compact umbra]

Fair

Amazing kit bash I might look at CGC for my murder priest for my word bearers

[floral wind]

Can't remember if I shew these but this the squad so far. Still awaiting a flag bearer replacement

[floral wind]

I may have already shown this too but here it is in a nicer set of photos. My BA inspired marine, the second marine I have ever painted

[ivory vortex]

@final folio not my print*

[heady lotus]

He skipped leg day

[final folio]

Looks rad as hell

[lavish crescent]

KRIEG

[floral wind]

Yes but actually no xD

They are proxies cos real Krieg are expensive

[lavish crescent]

Grimguard?

[floral wind]

YES

[lavish crescent]

... erm

Its not like I have 7 boxes of veteran guards man ready to use..

[floral wind]

GIB

[lavish crescent]

No

[floral wind]

[lavish crescent]

I was lucky

I tried to order online but it went to shit

So I got a refund and got them in store

Nearby shop had like 10 boxes untouched

£25 per box

[lavish crescent]

I am curious but were you meant to make him shiny?

[floral wind]

I didnt its just the lighting. Lamp too close but its the onky nice way I can get the photos

[floral wind]

Absolute deal

[left egret]

iron is back baby, good to be rid of the nails. That ticking is annoying

[lavish crescent]

Nails?

[left egret]

butchers nails

[lavish crescent]

Ooooo

Ew

[dark violet]

Second marine ever?

[lavish crescent]

Its funny you need nails to even be close to a custodes combat capabilities

[dark violet]

"Close"

[left egret]

funnily enough the way the nails are described in the book it kind of reminds me of one of my ADD symptoms. So my head cannon is the the world eaters all have ADD

[lavish crescent]

Sounds about right

Custodes have genetic ADHD

[floral wind]

Yh I only painted 1 before him which was the freebie from gw. He came from the starter booklet

[lavish crescent]

Cant tell me im wrong

[left egret]

donnu havent read up on them too much. They feel a bit mary sue 😈

Retreats to trenches

[lavish crescent]

-_-

Say that again and then look at the ultramarines 40k

[left egret]

They are too

😘

[lavish crescent]

Not as bad as the custodes

[left egret]

was that a self burn? 😶

[lavish crescent]

They were designed to be the body guards of the emperor. Thats why they come off Mary sue like but the one down side is they have zero emotional connection + laws restrict what they do and can go.

Space marines, no offence, have nothing holding them back and nothing limiting them

[tiny jay]

I'm not gonna start out trying to make one of everything. Just starting out with what interests me the most.

Starting out with 2 kill teams. One to play using IG rules/One using blooded rules. The Pox Hounds and Blight Drones will be something I want to have as a FA option if I ever get it built out to a full army.

[lavish crescent]

Kinda?

I'm English, we do it all the time

[tiny jay]

These look pgood as poxwalkers though. Might replace some of the bells with skulls or like, random items.

[left egret]

i do it all the time myself. One of the 2 legions i play are world eaters and they are barely, if at all, functioning psychopaths so drunk on bloodshed that they dont know where the fuck they are.
The other is the iron warriors... and while they are brilliant their bitterness is all consuming

as for what you said about the custodes ... fair enough, does make sense

[tiny jay]

Torn between a Fist's successor or Raptors still, for my Marine bois in KT Moroch though.

[left egret]

beautiful

[left egret]

screw the fits 😤

Bitterness for the win

[tiny jay]

✊

[left egret]

https://tenor.com/view/chaos-terminator-warhammer40k-chaos-space-marines-terminator-shoot-gif-16980493

[tiny jay]

Only other loyalists I'm interested in are Salamanders but I just don't feel I could pull of a Salamander paint job.

Though I guess adding some bits of leather as hides could be kew

[left egret]

loyalty is overrated, chaos is the way to go. You can put god into the machine, just to spite the word bearers

[tiny jay]

I only go chaos for Grandfather.

[rare hornet]

Y E S

[tiny jay]

I still kind of wish the Termie's were taller.

[left egret]

the grandfather is a fair choice. On the other hand i want to make the terminator into chaos

[tiny jay]

LIke, its way better than the old ones.

But Primaris are tall.

Though honestly a cut at the torso and a bit of putty could probably fix that.

[left egret]

yes... and guess what happened in arks of omen angorn 😈

Khornite primaris is the only answer

[tiny jay]

Enlighten me, I've basically read nothing but Abnett's Ghosts stuff and ravenor/eisenhorn.

Abnett's portrayal of the blood pact is part of what got me hyped for the Moebian's

[left egret]

angron and khorne broke a planet with psychic machine, releasing the murder curse... which bascially turns all but gray knights, sisters of silence and custodes into khornites (if they cant resist) .... and an indomidus crusade fleet was defending that planet. Now we basically have world eaters primaris

[tiny jay]

RIP

[left egret]

its cannon but has no model

[tiny jay]

I mean, chaos-ing up a model is easy.

Spikey bits

[lavish crescent]

Dark angels!

[left egret]

but yeah angrons fleet of blood crazed butchers just grew exponentially ... and it was already the greatest WE fleet since the siege of terra

[tiny jay]

Skulls and spikes.

[left egret]

that and left over chaos termie heads

[tiny jay]

Or just make some tusks for regular termie heads

[left egret]

aye

anyway gotta go

there is archaeology that needs doing

[coarse badger]

The 3 you listed were singled out specifically because they were IMMUNE to it lol

There were a bunch of others

But enough of them lost it that the entire fleet was condemned

Oh wait I misread sry

[left egret]

no worries

[coarse badger]

Just very used to chaos fan sperging

[left egret]

yeah, like it turned a majority of the sororitas, marines and guard insane. But also had good moments where a sister repentia killed an afflicted repentia and then said: "Unforgiven"

brutal

[coarse badger]

Yeah and some fans I've met basically figured "Oh they must all be perfectly lucid and willingly doing this"
Despite khorne worshippers in general being kind of off their rockers lol

[left egret]

yeah no. They are cursed

Its called the murder curse for a reason

[left egret]

... is ... is that first claw?

[weary nexus]

Yes, yes it is

[tiny jay]

I do just wish they'd scrap carapace armored scouts in favor of Phobos marines.

[weary nexus]

A year of work to get them there.. but soon they are complete

[left egret]

i miss talos

and uzas

he did nothing wrong

At least we have Variel and Decimus

[weary nexus]

He most certainly did not. His finale made me cry. Hopefully ADB will continue that plotline at some point

[left egret]

me too... Damn that fucking slaaneshii snake.

[weary nexus]

Cyrion played the long game of among us

[weary nexus]

The mini in the back was my take on xarl. As i could not get a hold of a massive two handed chainsword.

[left egret]

Oh wait also have lucoryphus of the bleeding eyes. I was glad he survived

[left egret]

world eaters have those now

[jovial siren]

How did you do the glow effect on the eyelenses? I utterly failed with my approach

[weary nexus]

My next project

[weary nexus]

This brings joy. Time to make xarl

[left egret]

its in the berzerker kit

[weary nexus]

Glorious. The champion shall be glorious!

[floral wind]

I first painted them with corax white then used tesseract glow

[midnight locust]

PVA or super glue for adding tufts to bases

[jovial siren]

Ah, the secret ingredient is a paint I don't have

[floral wind]

Tbh any contrast would work too if you have any

I only have tesseract because it came in the starter set

[jovial siren]

sadly no, have just the classic paints and some washes. I know its possible to make the glow effect with them too, but I'm a bit too lazy to learn it via a youtube tutorial

[floral wind]

[mystic tundra]

Currently hoarding STLs

my folder is up to 4.5 gb so far

we gotta crank that number up

I'm going to make the fucking Black Library of Warhammer STLs

[plush swift]

Anyone used this asking since I am kinda desperate

[lilac moth]

Someone about to get fucked

[rare hornet]

Abaddon better watch the fuck out

[lilac moth]

No one fucks with the Guilliman's breachers!

Tho i have a feeling abbydaddy just might

[coarse badger]

Until he meets a door, anyway

[pastel grotto]

Abaddon when I introduce him to a regular human sized door

(impassable terrain)

[lilac moth]

My headcanon is that he just taps it with his weapons and there is a tank sized door. Or just points at it and his terminator gang just walks up to the door and makes it not be there anymore 😄

[sudden notch]

Just shoots abbys head off with shotgun (idiot didnt wear helmet)

[feral shadow]

Just finished this bad boy few minutes ago

[sudden notch]

That looks good

"Do you have any idea how fucked you are"

[feral shadow]

Why ?

[sudden notch]

Chaos sm staring into gatling cannon

Cant really describe it as anything else

[feral shadow]

Oh he about to get punted

Dred has it other leg just slight hidden

[jaunty trail]

New Terminators or Primaris ones?

[rare hornet]

Same unit new model

[jaunty trail]

noice

Is there Any photos of the model kits itself(unassembled)?

[rare hornet]

But technically Primaris can be given terminator armour according to GW

[rare hornet]

Not yet, the model just got announced today

[coarse badger]

One size fits all

[jaunty trail]

Oh okay

[jaunty trail]

Laughs in Templar

[rare hornet]

It's going to be part of the 10th set guaranteed

Also the apothecary in the trailer had gravis armour

which makes me happy

[jaunty trail]

Hmm currently building my crusade on 9th Edition rules & Codex Supplement... Good that i don't do tournaments and play with friends only xD

[rare hornet]

I have quite literally got my entire crusade planned out XD

from the Marshall, the command squad the lot

[teal wolf]

https://tenor.com/view/crusade-gif-20872967

[jaunty trail]

Still having 3 Neophytes to be done, so that battle Patrol box is finished... Currently repainting and rebuilding my disassembled Land Raider Crusader and today my Predator arrived xD

[jaunty trail]

Look at my profile Picture... I do such thing in RL xD

[rare hornet]

I got my terminator chaplain who is the master of sanctity, who has his own personal attachment of relic terminators

[jaunty trail]

My Chaplain in Terminator Armor was a gift from a friend of mine. After having it done assembling and painting she said me that it was a limited collectors edition Terminator Chaplain... Was kinda weird and a honour for me

[teal wolf]

I did some in my day. Miss tf outta it

[jaunty trail]

Still loving to do reenactment and medieval fighting aswell. I think i will do this until my flesh is to weak for it 😄

[rare hornet]

Chaplain Micael he's called, he served alongside the original crusade marshal before he fell to the orks

[jaunty trail]

And after all Black Templars are done i will start with my Votann Army box XD but still have to get some bits from Green Stuff world 🤣 i want those middle fingers for my "rage space dwarfs"

XD

[rare hornet]

The marshal was on the planet while Micael was in orbit, the marshal and his force was surrounded by orks, they fought to the last until he called in an orbital bombardment upon himself (Micael the whole while was desperately trying to tell the marshal to wait longer until he and the relief force could be teleported down)

[jaunty trail]

Thats mad but it's Crusade style... No retreat and maximum kills....

[teal wolf]

I have the urge to raven guard again

[jaunty trail]

Also a nice Chapter

[rare hornet]

Micael was too late. However, both the black sword and the Marshal's body needed to be recovered, as the Marshal's armour was still reading a very weak signal. But the blast site was already being swarmed with orks, both who had somehow survived the barrage and those who came to loot the spoils. Micael went down alone, refusing any assistance. He returned with both the black sword and the Marshal's body. His terminator armour so heavily damaged the master of the forge had no idea how it was still functioning

Nobody in the crusade knows what happened on the planet when Micael went down, and he refuses to speak of it

[jaunty trail]

Pure will and fury... led by the enlighting light of the emperor...

[rare hornet]

All that is known, is that after that day the warboss known as RuntKrusha was never spotted again during the crusade

[pastel grotto]

Time to become the main villain at my LGS

Going to reenact that trailer on god

[rare hornet]

Bug

[teal wolf]

Many o bug

[sudden notch]

How many transport cases you have for them

[jaunty trail]

Lookin' good for xenos bugs... i'll prepare my melters and flamers as also energy weaponry to cut through this xD 😉

[pastel grotto]

You will call that sacred piece of weaponry a MELTA.

[jaunty trail]

xD

[undone pike]

Finally finished my first kataphron breacher

[mystic tundra]

I hate whoever at GW named all the primaris units. If you know what the fucking difference is between an intercessor, impulsor, infiltrator, incursor, inceptor, eliminator, eradicator, aggressor, suppressor, and an inceptor I'm going to smack you in the fucking face

[zenith ether]

listen, you can't say that. GW went to a lot of effort to be inclusive to people with learning disabilities and you have to respect they're doing their best.

[plush swift]

Aggressors are the sword bois

[mystic tundra]

NO

WRONG

[plush swift]

[mystic tundra]

GAME SHOW BUZZER SOUND EFFECT

[plush swift]

That’s why I picked Death Guard

I didn’t know what to pick for space marines

So many options

[plush swift]

Eradicators are for sure the heavy weapons guys

[midnight locust]

Finished dressing up my bases. Crazy what a couple tufts and some chicken wire can do

[hybrid locust]

I've been resheading my miniatures after getting a suggestion from someone. Just showing a before and after of the result

[glossy hawk]

Fucking stunning army bro

[simple thorn]

Impulsor: Sounds like the jump-jet infantry.
Infiltrator: Scouts. I know because I have those fucko's on my wishlist.
Incursor: Clippy's older, pointier brother?
Inceptor: Sounds like someone cut off the 'ter' from 'interceptor,' so also Jump Jet infantry except maybe ranged. Which is honestly a baller idea and why does something like that not exist.
Eliminator: Scouts with bigger guns.
Eradicator: Devastators/Heavy Weapons Marines with bigger guns.
Aggressor: Tactical Marines with two chainswords? Otherwise just tac marines, I think.
Suppressor: Devastators with even more dakka
Inceptor: You listed this one twice, so for my second guess I'm going to just look it up and edit my answer. Edit: Holy fuck they're ranged jump jet infantry.

[teal wolf]

All of the primaris unit were named by Dr. Doofensmirtz

https://tenor.com/view/doof-anime-phineas-ferb-gif-5752863

[simple thorn]

And now for what they ACTUALLY are

Impulsor: Floating transport. Guaranteed to make Chaos Lords crap themselves with impotent rage.
Infiltrator: Space Marines trained for Stealth. Basically Buff Scouts.
Incursor: Also Buff Scouts, but I think they're more item and battlefield control-based rather than 'shoot the enemy commader in the face.'
Inceptor: Ranged Jump Jet infantry
Eliminator: Snipers. Also these are the guys I have on my wishlist, not Infiltrators.
Eradicator: Heavy weapons team
Aggressor: Primaris Terminators
Suppressor: Heavy Weapons Jump Jet Infantry

There's also Intercessors who I guess one of the 'Inceptor's listed was supposed to be, and they're basically just Tactical Marines designed for close combat. Except the Heavy Intercessors, who are given heavy bolt rifles and heavy bolters are are just bsically beefier Tac Marines without being Devastators.
There's also:
Rievers: Melee jump jet squad (of 10)
Hellblasters: Tac Marines with Plasma everything

[sudden notch]

I prefer old tactical/devastator/assault/scout synergy

[simple thorn]

Seriously though, how many ranged-focused Jump Jet units are there?
I feel like the Specters the Eldar have are the only ones

[plush swift]

Devastation and not Devastators is the biggest mistake name wise

they are Devastator squads idc what GW says

[bold copper]

Progress on World Eaters Lord Gorath Blood-Drinker

[hybrid locust]

Very much like what you did here. I had a buddy of mine did a Kit bashed Daemon Prince of Nurgle and He used Guitar String for Makeshift pipes and wires. I know this is not a Nurgle Themed guy. Just wanted to suggest something for your larger projects is all

[last stratus]

thanks, yeah guitar string is a good material for such stuff

[tiny jay]

Been messing with some super thin leather offcuts and the Phobos marines from Moroch, I think I can make some cool looking salamanders. Can easily sculpt a bit more 'scale/hide' detail into the leather.

Atleast Salamanders avoid my dread of trying to paint normal skin

[naive umbra]

Like every Tau battlesuit haha

[simple thorn]

Fair point

[lavish crescent]

Morning fellow plastic crack addicts

[teal wolf]

Oh hai

[midnight locust]

I mentioned that term (plastic crack) off hand to a buddy of mine who just started the hobby and he laughed his ass off cause it’s so true

[rare hornet]

Did someone say plastic?!

Where is it?! Give it to me!

[teal wolf]

It's just empty sprues 😈

[naive umbra]

I can still use my Citadel mould line remover tool to carve them into basing materials! Give them to me!

[rare hornet]

I’m still gonna eat them

[teal wolf]

I do have a mtn of sprues that's facing the trash bin...

[midnight locust]

Rubble I’m guessing?

[naive umbra]

Or bent/twisted steel beams

[teal wolf]

Sprue stick figure army inbound

[midnight locust]

Mm yeah that would work too

[naive umbra]

I've not tried it yet, but it was an idea I had while looking at my empty sprues thinking "these could make nice girders"

[midnight locust]

Well this gave me an idea for how I want my Cadian Castellan standing atop a mountain of sprue rubble

[lavish crescent]

[midnight locust]

Getting my black primer this weekend so I can finally work on my sentinel

[lavish crescent]

Ayo

Started working on my dark angel blade guard

[tepid lily]

Jesus that was fiddly but all ready for painting now wooo

[midnight locust]

Side note for a Castellan I know I want to keep it cost free (ie no plasma pistol or power fist) but what has more merit: melee weapon and pistol or boltgun and pistol?

[weary nexus]

Not my work. But damn i want to make it.

[pastel grotto]

Reminder someone made a lore video explaining how that guy is the good guy.

[copper siren]

he was just playing tag with his brother Lion

all those murders were just Ultramarian propogada against the 8th

[lavish crescent]

What about the skinned bodies?

[copper siren]

Pranks

[lavish crescent]

Alpha legion?

[heady lotus]

Ngl it was when curze was on trial he was like,:

Why you use phosphex lion?

[plush swift]

[winged lava]

I guess they were mentioned in the lore once

[left egret]

@rare hornet have you looked at the cogs of vashtorr army of renown?

[left egret]

.... I would just about kill for new 40k beastmen models

[pastel grotto]

My very pyromanic Eldar Corsair Way Seeker I finished a couple of days ago ❤️‍🔥

[lavish crescent]

Abit off topic but OMFG my gf is the cutest thing on earth. Like how tf did a plastic crack addict end up with a beauty model!!

[ivory vortex]

GW's 3d printer lines, gotta love em.

[jagged sparrow]

Lmao. They 3D printing their own models

[coarse badger]

They always do it

If you look closely on reveals/rumour engine stuff you can see print lines

[midnight locust]

First Castellan

[coarse badger]

Pretty

You can give him a bolter?

[midnight locust]

Yep

[ivory vortex]

for sure, but only on a couple pcs. making me think those are some of the last parts made or modified.

[plush swift]

a lot of those lines can also occur from the milled molds too

[proper trellis]

first mini is (nearly) done

[midnight locust]

My first attempt at eyes. It’s… not terrible.

[midnight locust]

Look's solid

[proper trellis]

thanks

I like your guy too, IDK what he is though. impressive work on the eyes. you should try making the foregrip of the bolter black, it'd give more color to it!

[coarse badger]

Guard HQ I think, called a Cadian Castellan

[simple thorn]

The fuckin' leopard print pants

[tiny jay]

IIRC they're basically the same models as BF?

[midnight locust]

Cadian Castellan, basically an HQ Unit. I might just paint the foregrip black; it should help the green upper pop a bit more

[glad dust]

Hello there, I don't have any minis yet, would the Death Korps of Krieg be a good starting point?

[rancid bluff]

how are you guys and gals able to color these figures so amazingly well

[hybrid locust]

But I dry brush the cadian flesh Tone then do a layer of flesh shade to blend it together

[jovial siren]

good, now give him the harkonnen treatment with nuln oil

[naive umbra]

Anyone else enjoy seeing the new boarding patrols sell out within 1 minute of them going live?

You'd thing these online stores would have figured out how to stop botting by now.

[midnight locust]

Have you seen the Armageddon steel legion prices

[jovial siren]

People with a malicious mind would get the idea, that its on purpose, so that potential customers visit the page more often and maybe buy other stuff too before they get what they actually wanted to buy. You know, the digital version of getting you into the store because of some attractive deal, so that you stroll around and leave more money than planned

[primal summit]

Trying out all the flesh tone paints I have.

[coarse badger]

Kislev looks the most "alive"

On it's own anyway

[primal summit]

Yeah Kislev is great feels like the only one that dosnt need effort to look good. only one there dont really like is ungor, a bit to vibrant for what I want. I like the flayed ones sickly look and the albino of pallid. Rakarths also a bit like Kislev, dosnt need much effort to make it look good.

[coarse badger]

Ungor looks like what beast man flesh looks like in the total war games which IG is the intended effect

[naive umbra]

My go-to for human flesh is flayed one mixed with cadian fleshtone. Can use more cadian to get a more tan look, or more flayed one to go paler.

[tepid lily]

Need opinions, before I start to detail and shade the model further does the color scheme look okay? Personally I'm quite proud of it considering it's my first custom job

[primal summit]

I like it, gold tooth chainsword a nice touch.

[proper trellis]

https://tenor.com/view/this-is-the-way-mandalorian-star-wars-may-may-the-fourth-gif-21430119

[tepid lily]

Thank you ! really gotta clean it up though xD so many mistakes from shaky hands lol

Shaky hands + Bad eye site = a whole load of mistakes 😄

[primal summit]

I feel your pain my hands are all over the place and my glasses are hmm not as correcting as they used to be.

[marble sorrel]

Same thing but what helps me is using the rim of the table to help stead my hands

Just below the hand but above the wrist kinda

Kinda resting the side of you palm

[tepid lily]

Great tips, i kind of do something similar by putting both wrists together

[marble sorrel]

It takes time and it’s a learning curve

But if it makes anyone feel better it’s a easier learning curve than tarkov

I’m looking to get some of the new guard models soon as I can cash my check. Despite me absolutely seething that they got rid of the old models

[tepid lily]

Agreed ! and i have gone from painting a unit of gray knights (First proper unit i brought) to eventually building a whole Custodes army which i'm still proud of but to now be building and painting guard models is wayyyy different

[marble sorrel]

I’ve always been a guard and ork main

I miss the modularity of the now previous guard models

P much could take any kit and combine them with any ground model and they would fit perfectly. Now im not sure if they will but one way to find out

Gotta figure out how my veterans will look differently from my regulars

[plush swift]

Striped helms

Maybe a tint of gold somewhere

[marble sorrel]

my regs already got that

my scheme is the 92nd firebrands

[plush swift]

On one of the shoulder pads then

[marble sorrel]

they got a horizontal stripe on there too lol

[plush swift]

A brown one right?

Change the color of it

Or make it vertical

[marble sorrel]

more of a orange but yeah helmet and shoulders are taken

[plush swift]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/750942554643628063/1089178880759316541/PXL_20230325_132622414.jpg

Maybe even change the whole shoulder pad color

making a big one

So many ways

[marble sorrel]

as far as i know is this regiment has a vertical on shoulders for command squad and horizontal for infantry squads with a stripe down the helmet and pant leg

[marble sorrel]

looking like the eldrich abomination that would give my guard nightmares

i love it

[plush swift]

Veterans could have a different colored stripe or even a different shoulder pad color entirely

Not too distinct but distinct enough

[marble sorrel]

ill figure something out when i get a box

i mainly need to see the new parts in order to get a idea of what i can do that would work

[plush swift]

That too

[marble sorrel]

im thinking of doing something with the cuffs on the uniforms tho

[plush swift]

thx

[marble sorrel]

give it a pet name or just a strange generic name

like charles or something

lol

[plush swift]

I'll do one better

Fluffy Bunny

try to explain how your entire unit got killed by a Fluffy Bunny

[marble sorrel]

Henry

[marble sorrel]

just a idea but you see that talon thats near the hip of the leg

if you plan on adding more or even a bigger one. consider maybe adding a guardsmen helmet to it. cut a hole in the top and just fit it through

thatd be p cool

[plush swift]

I was planning on having a Guardsman being dragged in the mouth under those talons

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/750942554643628063/1089188588433985546/PXL_20230325_140539309.jpg

[marble sorrel]

that would indeed also work

[naive umbra]

Finished assembling my Pathfinder grenadier

I dunno why they put one of the sprue connections on the grenade, of course when I went to tidy it with a file after snipping the grenade broke off the fingers and I had to struggle gluing it back on

Like seriously just put one on the arm

[grizzled linden]

DOODOO PAINT PACKKKK

[simple agate]

First compared to most recent...god dayum

[floral wind]

Wip and how it's going so far

[round crystal]

That’s some great improvement!

[simple agate]

Finally gotten back to painting my guard haha! Bane blade in the works

Kreigs are the first kill team I ever finished painting

[floral wind]

Thoughts on this scheme?

[simple agate]

Last post before I really get this legend finished!

[simple agate]

I'm vibing with it, good set of colours there, the orange...socks? Lol just match, I like the gasmask too different then others I've seen 😄 stick with it!!

[floral wind]

Thanks I wasn't sure if it was working tbh 😂 the brown is very orange I will admit that what I was afraid of. Again thank you for your feedback

[simple agate]

I feel like a dark brown and that orange would work...but that also kinda works as a wood mix 😅😅😅...damn got me wanting to experiment stuff

Oooooo actually!!!! Like a citadel rhinox hide colour with vallejios parasite brown colour for highlights sounds like a hella skits mask combo!!!

[floral wind]

I sadly don't have rhinox hide 😭😭 it's on my wishlist the darkest I have rn is mournfang brown however with the browns I do have I will use on my trench bases I bought online 😁😁

[simple agate]

Excellent!!!!

Doesn't fit my normal scheme but it looks great none the less, maybe throw a wash to dirty up a bit haha

[floral wind]

Gonna leave it here for now. Got some of the metallics will tidy up on the next session

Lots of work to be done

[glossy hawk]

Local painter finally ascends beyond not thinning their paint

[glossy hawk]

Here’s a criticism, don’t paint the areas where you’re going to glue a limb on

Glue on paint is not a good idea

[floral wind]

duley noted thank you

[final folio]

Two more outta the pile

[simple agate]

Not only that but it was cheap $1 store paints hahaha

[left egret]

i am calling nope, cant get me close to that thing

looks awesome, but no sir. Nope, nopedy nope-nope. Tyranid tentacle crotch mouth is disturbing as fuck

[plush swift]

in my defence the tail was intended for a kitbash Malenthrope, so when I grabbed it to do the "T-Rex" there was a head already encased in resin at that place

I just added teeth

[left egret]

🤣 no need to defend it, looks wicked. At the same time i wouldnt want to be close to such a creature

[plush swift]

Then it's working as intended

[left egret]

indeed

[plush swift]

need to add more tentacles

[left egret]

https://tenor.com/view/neil-patrick-harris-shudder-shrug-disgusted-gif-13575156

look suspiciously like pre-heresy world eaters

if more aztec

[floral wind]

@simple agate apologise for the ping but what do you think of this base I did? (Ignore the base rim I'll repaint it later xD)

[glossy hawk]

I fucking love your nids

[plush swift]

Thank you

[glossy hawk]

Looks so easy to have painted

You did great

[twilit cliff]

I didn't even know nids had shield dudes, very cool

10/10 would engage in glorious melee

[plush swift]

They had shield dudes. . .

. . . In 3rd edition

[twilit cliff]

I like them a lot

[plush swift]

3rd edition vs modern kit

Don't worry about it :^)

Welp he’s done, just gotta finish his base.

What chapter are they? Looks friggin dope

[sudden notch]

was squad for game 5 or 6 man

More work on the rogal dorn

[final folio]

Custom Chapter. English they are Hull Hounds. In Otomi theyre Tenamitl Galgo.

Aztec World Eater Loyalists.
In short they were a Warband trapped in a small sector after the begining of the scouring. the warband was headed by a Apothecary and they took to this Primitive world and brought them up, recruiting the few they could to bolster their ranks. Untill the Great rift they were secluded, and now they gladly accept the Primaris as a sign of forgiveness for their legacy.

[jaunty trail]

Current WiP of my reassembled and repainted Land Raider Crusader...

Still not finished but happy with the progress

(Side Note: it was before Ultrasmurf blue)

[final rune]

I while back I got a throw-away army to practice painting and building. I got this lil guy down and now I’m thinking about getting a real army. Should I keep the stuff I have or should I upgrade to something else? The bloodletter is what I got out of these supplies.

[jaunty trail]

If you dont want to waste them you could strip the colour and repaint them with your skills you now have... or also a possibility by choosing another army: cut them down and use parts as base decoration.

[final rune]

I didn’t know I could strip the paint. Thanks.

[jaunty trail]

Here some help:

[final rune]

Thanks bro

[jaunty trail]

You're welcome, without helping people there can't be a "good" community to a hobby 😉

[floral wind]

Not sure how I feel about it, not finished but almost there

[jaunty trail]

Good start i think 😉 but try to get some less paint on the model it is a little too thick coated (you can see it by watching the rifle parts)

You could look up some drypainting or other painting method vids ^^

[floral wind]

I have and tbh I don't really think my heart was in it tbh. Which is sad cos I love doing it I just don't know where thr enthusiasm went

Perhaps out of boredom I just wanted to get it done tbh

[jaunty trail]

I can feel that... when i have "uncreative episodes" i just don't paint cuz' i know i won't do it good... But to want thing got done is something that is okay. In this case you must find your own way to get some "peace"... If i'm not happy i strip the models and do them all new xD

[floral wind]

Thank you for being understanding. I think I'll leave it as a reminder to better myself in the hobby. I'll do what I can with it to make it look semi decent but for now I shall sleep on it

[warm dune]

Some crome tecmarines

[jaunty trail]

Some sand later...

Having to fix the storm ramp mechanism again... only part of this tank i hate xD

And still having to put some shades on it...

[warm dune]

heck yeah!

[jaunty trail]

i don't like "clean" armour xD

[warm dune]

oh yeah. got to get um good and greasy

its only the first layer. no details yet. but it still looks really cool

[jaunty trail]

Need to look for some additional bits for the land raider... got a fuel canister, a chainsword with scabbard and a helmet as decorations... also some purityseals... but i'm thinking of adding some wooden logs or something like that... and eventually also an unloaded Bolter or some gear that a Astartes crew could store outside of the tank....

[warm dune]

have you seen how metal is cut and weld beads on real tanks?

[jaunty trail]

Yeah but i'm not that good by doing small metal parts... but i will see what i could get... maybe i ask my friends for some inspiration or additive bits.... Still thinking about to use an unused Banner of a Terminator squad.

[warm dune]

yeah some epoxi putty can do a million things!

[jaunty trail]

Yeah there is still a Predator tank waiting to be done... and there will be the same additives to do as i do for my Land Raider ^^

[warm dune]

lol i build the predator but my land cruser is still in the box

[jaunty trail]

The joke is that i paint most of the parts before assembling them xD

[warm dune]

i think the only part on the minis i will leave off is the capes. that seems like the easiest to screw up with. and gets really in the way

[jaunty trail]

I learned it like i do it now... started with some WWII models back in the day cuz' my dad did them as well... in 2004 i got my starter pack "Battle for Macragge" and 2008 i painted (ruined) the Land Raider the first time.... Last year i disassembled it because i started new with 40k and got to Black Templars xD

[plush swift]

Oh jesus thats a lot of bad info in there... btw IPA is not recommended on GW plastic. I ruined several armies by using it to strip them, it causes the polystyrene to become unstable and hyper brittle

Very first mini I've ever painted. Still not done but making good progress.

[plush swift]

Really good

For a first attempt

[hardy timber]

Thank you!

[plush swift]

I suggest that you try everything you can as practice

[hardy timber]

Yeah i've been watching a lot of video and trying a lot having a lot of fun in the process

[plush swift]

Same but you can only watch so much

[warm topaz]

Chaos nurglfied warlord titan

[marble sorrel]

This turned out amazing dude

I’m excited to see it painted and finished, please do @ me when it’s done

[plush swift]

😅

I'll try to remember to @ ya

and I too am exited to paint it

and base it

[marble sorrel]

I would be too

I do dioramas sometimes

My darktide one got cut short and I need to start the models from scratch since the guard I was using changed before I could order my last set

With something like what you got I’d have it looking over into a trench with a scared guardsmen inside it looking back up at it

[plush swift]

You mean watching his friend getting eaten?

[marble sorrel]

Both is good

Miss my tyranid friend, he always had a great hive mind mentality

We would combine our grand battles with dnd and have these epic campaigns that would last months

[plush swift]

Sounds like fun

[marble sorrel]

Example being starting out as a simple platoon commander with only a few things and have a recourse counter for food, water, supplies and ammo. We would have to maintain our armies as we went to different world which could have different elements that would modify how we play

One being a Fog which would limit sight range

Eventually everything got so big we had legitimate “regiments” of soldiers on one field

[plush swift]

Sounds like a game of Only War

[tepid lily]

So... I think I didn't thin my paints enough for these models.....

[marble sorrel]

I’ve seen worse

Nail polish remover will strip the paint just don’t leave the model in for too long if you do

[tepid lily]

Hmmm honestly like my original gray knights i might just leave him as is as a "DON'T DO THIS" reminder

[marble sorrel]

That’s what I did with my first ever model

Blood angels

[tepid lily]

Here are my first proper models

[marble sorrel]

Globed a whole thing of red paint to the whole squad

[plush swift]

unfortunately my firsts models are gone

[marble sorrel]

I only have one left

And those knights look good

[tepid lily]

I'd love to see your blood angel though 😄

[marble sorrel]

No.

Lmao

[tepid lily]

xD

[marble sorrel]

He is forever imprisoned in the black stone fortress (I forgot what box I put him in, nor do I wanna look)

[tepid lily]

Oh that poor probably ugly blood angel xD

it can't be as bad as my guardsman surely? 😄

[marble sorrel]

Ew icky

Very smelly

These are my previous guard

I’m going to get the new ones soon to replace them

But yeah, my Fox Caster is dead. Turns out vulpine biomancy doesn't really work against Tyranids.

Now I want to see nature loving psykers that mind control wildlife to attack

[marble sorrel]

Just having a single one of those loose in a underhive

[simple thorn]

Those are literally just stereotypical DnD druids

[naive umbra]

Yeah

Without the shape-shifting

[marble sorrel]

Doesn’t matter they are all equally schizophrenic

[naive umbra]

Unless they lose their mind and get possessed

Then some shape-shifting

[marble sorrel]

Upgraded schizophrenia

Weaponized schizophrenia lmao

[plush swift]

A big one

[simple thorn]

That doesn't answer my question

[plush swift]

It's made with part from the Trygon/Mawloc , the Tyranofex , Venomthropes, and Warriors kit

[plush swift]

It's a T-Rex

[simple thorn]

Ah, it's a kitbash

Gonna need a bigger boat

Gonna need a bigger lasgun

[rare hornet]

Tyranid kitbashes are great because they’re all canonically feasible

[marble sorrel]

Something I learned recently is the blooded traitor guard can’t mix almost perfectly with the new cadian models

[plush swift]

I made lots of Nids kitbashes

[rare hornet]

Nids are a great opponent, but they terrify me with how good they are

wait

the 2nd one is full of 3D prints

[marble sorrel]

Ah the behemoth hive

Right?

[rare hornet]

Ah racing stripes

[plush swift]

The Beehemoth hive

[rare hornet]

Speedhemoth

[marble sorrel]

My buddy had a night stalker type hive

[naive umbra]

Just finished assembling my Pathfinder drone controller

[marble sorrel]

He based it off aliens from AVP

[marble sorrel]

Drippy

[plush swift]

More of my kitbashes

[naive umbra]

Some of it got under my finger when I was attaching the antenna and slightly melted the helmet, but once I get a primer coat on, you won't see anything.

I know coz same thing happened to my Fire Warriors a few times and they look fine with paint on now

[marble sorrel]

👁️ 👁️

[marble sorrel]

We’ve all been there brother

[naive umbra]

Stupid sexy tyranids

Love it haha

[rare hornet]

Wait, i just clocked it as well

[marble sorrel]

I’d rather my guard die distracted than horrified

[plush swift]

Distraction Lictor

[rare hornet]

he died as he lived

[plush swift]

always work

[naive umbra]

Feels like they're eating nothing at all

[rare hornet]

Do they have a adaptation which causes the target to become completely paralyzed?

[marble sorrel]

This is very specific

[plush swift]

You could say that "she" secrete pheromones

[rare hornet]

Remember in the guard you can either fucking die, or die fucking

[plush swift]

That's against Slaanesh

[rare hornet]

doesn't always have to be

[marble sorrel]

That’s one army I have never gone against personally is a slannesh cult

[plush swift]

I guess it could happen against Orks

[rare hornet]

because EC players don't exist in 40K, GW refuses to acknowledge them

[plush swift]

insert Dreadnought meme

[marble sorrel]

To be fair I would be scared of what they may want as models

[urban harbor]

no that is only for the space marines...i hate myself for this

[floral wind]

My "finished" Trench runner.

[jaunty trail]

Rifle looks way better now 😎

[floral wind]

Thank you, that means more to me now I'm done with it. Until I aquire some micro sol/ set that is to apply decals 😄

[rare hornet]

Do not think too much

[marble sorrel]

You can’t stop me, I might be into it

[rare hornet]

Booba is the one weakness to every 40K player

[floral wind]

Can agree. My gf distracts me from the hobby

tho I'm secretly trying to get her into it too

[rare hornet]

Double deception

[plush swift]

What happens if you live long enough and die peacefully

[floral wind]

Impossible

[plush swift]

I don’t think it is even if the chances are impossibly low

Over a trillion guardsmen I am sure half a guardsmen made it into retirement

Maybe a quarter of a quarter

[floral wind]

My guess is that guardsmen regiments that don't see very much action have a lower mortality rate

Unless the world your stationed on gets a daemonic incursion or is visited by Tyranids or orks

Then nobody wins

[simple thorn]

You get promoted to General, given Rejuvinants and if you're really lucky and don't get sniped by a ratling, ork or 'ork,' you get to have a planet named after you

And if you survive longer still, you even get to rule that planet
Until you get sniped by a ratling, ork, 'ork' or rival noble who doesn't think you're enough of a ponce to ponce it up with the rest of the ponces because you were a smelly guardsman and not the most noble of ponces who married/was born into more money than the God Emperor

Because nobles are fucking morons

[plush swift]

No no no I want to go to an agri world and live with PTSD

[simple thorn]

Too bad, it's either that or become a Rogue Trader
Anything else and the commissar will execute you for defying the will of the Emperor

[plush swift]

The Nids mary

The nids they’re coming to get us

[simple thorn]

Not if you become a chaos cultist and summon one of the Daemon Primarchs

But even then the 'nids are coming and are going to eat the demons

[plush swift]

They already are

[simple thorn]

seriously, a 'nid fleet getting trapped in the Citatrix Maledictum and not only surviving but also managing to chow down on some worlds also trapped in there was kinda hilarious to read

while also becoming uniquely adapted for anti-daemon ops

[plush swift]

I like the nids they are simple in their goals

I am excited for the last stands we will be getting in 10th

[simple thorn]

I don't for the exact same reason

They're like bears. They don't care if you're alive or dead before they eat you, and the combat bioforms aren't really the ones that are doing the nomming

[plush swift]

I think they are good for a beginner, them and the orks are simple and they were my in for 40k books Helsreach and The devastation of Baal

[simple thorn]

So they just incapacitate, move on and let the Rippers come minutes-to-hours later and finish the job unless you still have an arm/tendons available to grab the nearest sharp implement/pistol and resume making yourself a problem/cap yourself before said nom nom bugs get to you

[plush swift]

Chaos and their four factions and motivations and plots and background can be too much

Necrons and their war in heaven are also a lot of lore to digest

The imperium oof

Tau are unorthodox but cool

Elfs and dark elfs are well idk

[plush swift]

Yea which makes them perfect as an enemy

[simple thorn]

starts playing Memories Broken to the tune and tempo of Japanese Goblin

[plush swift]

I love Necron lore

[simple thorn]

The only two (three) books I've read of the Necrons are the Rise/Reign duology and Infinite and the Divine

[plush swift]

I listened to all three

Really good

[simple thorn]

If I ever end up in 40k I will make it my fucking divine mission to join up with the British Museum

[plush swift]

It probably should be there

[simple thorn]

I don't care how lethal it is, I am going to assist that fucking mad skelly lad, find a working fucking Biotransference Forge and become the Sullah to his Indy
Or something. IDFK

[plush swift]

I forget mechanics exists

[simple thorn]

And since there's unlikely to be some jank-ass C'tan floating around, I can probably get away with being the only Necron with a Soul

'cause I ain't smart (and simultaneously too smart) to join the Mechanicus. I'd end up a servitor at best and a Highly Decorated Skitarii at worst

[plush swift]

Angron has been started

[cosmic topaz]

JUST finished mine, enjoyed the hell out of it, yours is looking legit so far !

Getting some death company done

[plush swift]

Starting to figure out I shoulda painted parts separately

[cosmic topaz]

Arms! I put him together and went shit I shoulda done the arms separately hahaha!

[dark violet]

Only one more sacresant to go

[midnight locust]

First sentinel complete

[coarse badger]

I'm trying to check how bad the import costs would be for me, but it seems that the "Rest of world" option for GW is quite broken

[rare hornet]

Progress on the CHONK

Also, bonus CHONK

[coarse badger]

For some reason I can neither checkout or remove things from my cart...

It works fine for EU

Very strange Geedubz

[jaunty trail]

Aggressors?

[rare hornet]

Yas

[jaunty trail]

Lookin' darn good ^^ Black Templars if i'm right too?

Currently shading my BT Land Raider Crusader... Will be happy when the tank is done.

[plush swift]

How did you do the chest boney skull and wings

?

[rare hornet]

So that is wraithbone with seraphim sepia alone the edges

[plush swift]

I could do that for my death guard Hersey looking armour

Thanks

[rare hornet]

Yeah it works very well for bone armour colour, you may need to be prepared to do a bit of cleanup however, because wash paints have a mind of their own sometimes

[plush swift]

I dont mind that

[rare hornet]

Sweet as then

[teal wolf]

Thicc maroons

[upbeat hearth]

why does my paint rub off so easily

[midnight locust]

Did you prime the model beforehand?

[upbeat hearth]

yes

[midnight locust]

How soon did you handle it?

[sage matrix]

Trying out some molten effects

[glossy hawk]

fill those holes on the heat shield on the back of it with nuln oil

[midnight locust]

I did though

I’ll take a look at it though and give it another once over

That aside, for whoever plays guard, what’s the usual Cadian shock troops to Infantry Squad ratio?

[warm topaz]

Warlord Titan Nurglefied

[rugged vigil]

A lesson learned in using Air dry clay from the supermarket. What does everyone use to make mounds, hills or other such terrain on a smaller scale?

[glossy hawk]

I dig it, but it seems lacking in the nurgle aspect

[warm topaz]

[glossy hawk]

Give it.. More Flesh

MORE FLESH

FLESH !

@warm topaz actually though throw some more plaguebearer skulls on

[cursive vector]

Typically I’ll recommend miliput for that

Its good for small humps as well as hills. Anything larger than what’d go on a base or go to make up a small trench, you’ll want to do something other than clay

[simple thorn]

BEHOLD

TITANS

100% IMPERIUM-GRADE TITANRY HERE

READY TO FIGHT THE TYRANID SCOURGE

[plush swift]

Are you banned from the GW store by any chance

[simple thorn]

No, because I don't play the tabletop

I just paint minis and make them look cool because it's art and doing something that isn't just playing vidya games

The only tabletop games I've played that aren't Family Favourites (Uno, Monopoly, etc.) are BattleTech and DnD

[brazen notch]

Based

[tiny jay]

Planning to do simmilar with mine. Though gonna use ovals instead of pill bases. The ogryn looks fire thiugh.

[dark violet]

does anyone know where i can get asterion moloc mini? i cant find it in any store atm

hes the lovely chapter master of the very friendly much beloved minotaurs.

[brazen silo]

I cant paint for a year and it fucking sucks because im no longer burned out of my tyranids

[teal wolf]

His official mini was forgeworld

[plush swift]

It was a joke question but yes, I want to play but I don’t have anyone around so I just paint for my enjoyment

[dark violet]

thank you :3

[teal wolf]

Anytime!

[plush swift]

Much beloved minotaurs 😂

[rare hornet]

I think it's great when you look at the minotaurs then get told they're Iron Warrior successors

[teal wolf]

Most of the cursed founding chapters are pretty rad

[brazen notch]

World Eaters

Iron Warriors presumed successor (kind of true) was Silver Skulls

Red Scorpions was presumed to be like Emperors Children

[brazen notch]

their M.O was close to World Eaters, sheer mayhem and brute force

no traditional captain, everything comes from Moloc himself

so the captains act like little warlords instead

since the fleet travels as one most of the time

[tawny wedge]

Test mini for a Moebian 6th scheme for my blooded kill team/40K traitor guard! Base is taking forever to dry before washing and drybrushing but here’s where I’m at so far!

[midnight locust]

Solid looking guardsman there even if a dirty traitor

[dark violet]

gets astartes support straight from the high lords
it's the minotaurs entire chapter

[white tangle]

Another finished eliminator. I've never done a base so that's a problem for the future me.

[rare hornet]

Try a bit of caulk board, you can cut and rip it to make a pretty convincing cracked concrete, then just get the pieces to fit in the blank spaces

[midnight locust]

The one thing I’ve come to find irritating with this hobby are transfers, specifically on shoulder pads

[dusty nimbus]

field ordinance battery

[edgy jackal]

Clay, or custom resin pieces?

[dusty nimbus]

Resin

Got them from a company called Royal Model

The texture is amazing

[midnight locust]

Hm. Idk if I should work on my command squad or my second shock trooper squad next

[latent sierra]

why is there no new plauge toad models with the 9th edition daemons of chaos? they have like almost everything else
