dusk hill
i do kinda appreciate how buff wyches are tbh
for as much as i've never really liked their designs
dusk hill
imo though just like. With the scale GW functions at it's really difficult to get like, models with a lot of skin showing to look good
even with the fantastic paintjobs GW gets done for them
especially if it's a fem model, to me the proportions and everything just invariably look kinda weird idk
nova hinge
Kingdom Death and Infinity managed realistic proportion tho, I wish Warhammer does it too someday.
Not their lewdness
edgy cipher
That's the issue with heroic scale aka 28mm, you are forced to some change a bit of proportions to make the models pop more
Which is is more weird on armors
And it inevitably hyper masculanize or feminize the minis
dusk hill
p much
edgy cipher
But that's more of a scale problem
Add to that a pretty male dominated culture and... well you get older minis
edgy cipher
The oversized pauldrons are one of those examples
dusk hill
tbh oversized pauldrons are basically just a distinct 40k thing at this point. it's not even an issue with scale
bold lily
it's mostly faces they end up being terrible with imo
dusk hill
40k is just the big pauldron universe
edgy cipher
Not really Ratty since those appear in a lot of fantasy media
bold lily
a lot of the weird muscularity or really weird looking proportions is paint job
dusk hill
biggest E is the biggest pauldron man
edgy cipher
It's just an overly masculine thing
bold lily
the old dark elf sorceress was a good example of that
dusk hill
Ye the muscularity is always wonky too
it's def v easy to mess up painting them, which is another reason why i avoid it tbh
painting flesh is my bane
edgy cipher
Most of the flesh I've painted was ogryns and since they are pretty muscular/fat lads with big minis its not hard
dusk hill
ye, if they're meant to have super ruddy skin it's probs a little easier
with eldar you've kinda gotta make it a lil more uniform, cus elves r pretty and have fantastic skincare routines
dusk hill
My worry is just that my drybrushing would be a lil ham fisted for flesh. Which isn't so much of an issue if it's like
a dorf or ogre or whatever
nova hinge
How about, if they scale up? It will be easier to make a proportions are better right?
edgy cipher
I never use drybrushing for skin
Yes but scaling things up means changing completely of gaming style on the tabletop
nova hinge
dusk hill
they have lowkey scaled up for certain games
edgy cipher
Like how Priaris made SM armies even more elite almost to a Custodes level
dusk hill
necromunda models are a lil bit bigger
edgy cipher
Yep because fewer models on the board
dusk hill
I never use drybrushing for skin
i mean, but then how do u get definition with the muscles? like, i guess you could just go over with a wash and leave it at that but idk
dusk hill
sure!
I shouldn't be painting flesh anytime soon but still good to know. Lowkey gonna be getting lended an imperial knight to put together by my brother so that's gonna kinda be dominating my time
big crusader boi
edgy cipher
On this video, since the man is shirtless he shows a lot of techniques to paint muscles
He even shows you how to make them pop more or less
Which is an imporant detail for eldar if you wanna make them look less Catachan-y
Its a bit of a long video but worth it imo

Absolutely yeah
Like. You can kinda go ham with painting vehicles without worrying about all the tiny lil bastard details on infantry
It's a way less stressful experience
void orchid
I'm mixed on this because while that's true, getting a nice smooth finish on those big armor plates stresses me out a lot too haha
sly wraith
it is definitely different, because the details are bigger it helps the model pop
but also they have bigger areas where flat color stand out
dusk hill
In my experience just using super thin paint helps with that. Like, I'm paranoid af so I've used practically watery paint for it before, maybe nearly a dozen layers until its a consistent shade without being thicc
void orchid
Obligatory THIN YOUR PAINTS
sly wraith
yeah it does not take much
dusk hill
I'm fine with flat colour, tho I have been meaning of trying out the whole speckled vibe. Like, using a frayed brush to kinda poke a speckled texture over the base colour

and tbh i would hope everyone thins their paints

Around the same time taking into account when the tau were like, in development

Tau came out in like, 2002/2003?
dusk hill
So could've been some inspiration yea
crisp forge
Hmmm yeah as Ratty say perhaps JUST a bit influenced.
elfin yew
I've heard some ppl say that the Tau might've been inspired by the Protoss which is kinda funny
Considering they also have a 'caste system' of different functions and such
dusk hill
Tbh imo it's more likely they were inspired by the covenant like, after being initially revealed? I have difficulty believing ethereals haven't been kinda influenced by the prophets

Better than 3, 4, 5, 6 sides.

And this Gun may be for the Vampire Hunter (With hammer and stake on his coat)
We briefly see the lower side of his arm and it look like it's in the same position

That's from the Vampire Hunter and it really has the same look as the Gun

Conscripts to be a wave of volley fire
With psykers backing them up
I can do some adjustments to still get it to work

Yeah, I don't know why but they keep removing nice stuff from IG
Especially when its not doing hot rn because of old codex and giving secondaries

I don't have that issue with scions however, what OS do you use ?

I have no issues on Android, they are all using hotshot lasguns and Volley guns are special weapons for me
edgy cipher
Let me try on my side
Ah
I do have the Bullgryn Bone'ead issue
So you're not alone on that one
Also I just realized something while i was watching some videos
Tank Commanders right now are the best IG units and the ones that feeds the most secondaries
If you don't take slay the Warlord, they litteraly feed Thin their ranks + Bring'em down + Assassination
At 7 victory point per miniature

Oh yea, agreed. Like i said just keep the warriors as they are, everything else old as hell needs an update

I haven’t finished painting my Dark Angels but I’m now gonna assemble and paint a punch of Orks. Also fuck Super Glue, takes ages to dry on plastic yet it solidifies the micro instant it touches your skin. Too long have I dealt with the pain of grasping a piece on a model and moving my finger assuming it’s dry, only for it to fall off or find out it’s glued to my fat thumb.

Use plastic cement or smthing like that
It dries super fast
Just dont breath it too closely

I def agree that the shaggoth is uglier
Tho I dont think the dragon ogres are esp good either

weird, i can't find either on the site anymore....

I want to include canids in my guardsman army. Should they be the Sergeants, or the special weapons guardsmen?
edgy cipher
Canids ?
crisp forge
🇨🇦
nova hinge
Dogerman
feral valley
Yes
So I'm not sure if I want him as my sergeant, since everyone knows dogs are fantastic for morale (maybe I could run them as commissars, come to think of it), or special weapons guardsmen, and green stuff a neural link to a flamer
feral valley
Above NCOs and Sergeants, below junior officers
Which I why I was saying they need a distinguished role
feral valley
Hmmmm, thought of that, but voice of command is kind of odd.
Maybe command squads, with one that has a standard on it's back, one carrying a vox, one with a med kit around its neck?
And then the last veteran on the squad could be the handler
edgy cipher
Vox carrier would make sense
feral valley
Yea? Not sure if vox are worth bringing in squads just for the cost tbh.
feral valley
I mean I'm taking flamers either way, cause I'm gonna melt any obsec that try's to contest
edgy cipher
I prefer to stick those on Chimeras but if you manage to make it work, the more power to you
feral valley
Thanks. I just figure that with 9 or 10 of them, that's 10d6 of auto hitting objective clearing/holding fire
Not bad
edgy cipher
Have you ever tried doing special weapons squad with flamers ?
Because I haven't and now i'm curious about how good would they clean objectives, from shaff that is
Because a squad of Heavy intercessors will laugh at the 10d6 shots

i wanna bash a melee tau squadron

"Melee T'au"
arctic gate
What T'au? That sound impossible
elfin yew
imo if GW shifted Tau's tabletop identity from "shoot only, do damage in one phase" to just center on their mechs/auxillaries their main problems would be solved from like
every angle
assault crisis suits would b pog
plush swift
imagine waiting for gw to change a rule set
plush swift
laughs in homebrew
arctic gate
i dont think that will ever happen. Tau are to dumb to learn how to modify their super hightech stuff for melee 🙂
nova hinge
Just make a short but bloody powerful plasma or fire or whatever. Bamn, "sword".
bold lily
More like it won't happen because it'd just piss tau players off, and kind of hurt their actual game identity a bit
plush swift
90% of 40k suck fat ass so i don't really look at em
nova hinge
The energy kind of sword
bold lily
40k isn't exactly lacking in elite melee forces
elfin yew
Most tau players I speak with know that the ranged identity exclusively kind of sucks
it's anecdote I suppose but that's like, the general consensus I get
Ppl don't like only being able to do damage in one phase
bold lily
I can't imagine it's a terribly common one, there's not much reason to play them if you hate their style
elfin yew
It's like, the main part of their identity that like no one likes
bold lily
Plus, would be more "your army is now invalid, buy a whole new one" that would piss people off
elfin yew
Because you like their aesthetic/art/etc?
I think that's why most ppl play any army
outside of metachasers
nova hinge
But the "fusion" blade like things are way to un-economic
Power weapon is the way
Or those, sonic blade or whatever of Mechanicus
You can all those sonic things a "vibrator", it is technically right
arctic gate
I woulndt mean a new army if you integrate some melee troops into the tau. All other units would be still valid
elfin yew
Yeh
It'd just open up a new option
You can still be a Shoot army and have melee units
nova hinge
It just vibrating SO FAST you can just slice the things like a butter
And actually, we already has it
It calls super sonic cutter or something
It is kinda burns or melt through the material
It literally goes brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
trim hemlock
Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't the entire existance of the Kroot is so Tau can have melee?
elfin yew
Sort of but Kroot are.. really bad
If you wanna be technical they're more for being like
a cheaper infantry option for covering obj and being chaffy
They'll still get shredded in melee, just not quite as hard as a fire warrior
They also don't get like, most of your faction abilities unless you run a specific sept + stratagem
Actually I can't even find that, I thought there was a dal'yth stratagem that gave kroot FTGG but I can't seem to find it
nova hinge
Kroots are Umgak
dusk hill
Yeah. Kroot are less melee tau and are more just chaff that are marginally better acclimated to melee
