#

Alright i know what ill do with my lasgun

#

Im gonna print a barrel adapter for the lasburst barrels, make it so i can mod it into a twin lasburst, singular lasbarrel and bayonet lug, triple las repeater and single las barrel and a full shotlas

obtuse sinew
#

wow

#

prepared for everything, eh?

hoary ermine
#

Modular

#

I want this gun to be a swiss army knife for my custom regiment anyway

obtuse sinew
#

swiss army knife, or swiss army lascutter?

hoary ermine
#

Yes

obtuse sinew
#

good answer

edgy cipher
#

So kind of like the M63 of lasguns

twilit cliff
#

The admech would like to have a word.

hoary ermine
#

No they wouldny

#

Modifications to lasguns are legal

#

In fact, there is some nerd out there that turned his normal lasgun into a lasburst with the lasgun components that were left over from an artilleryvsiege

#

He was promptly promoted to tech adept and initiated

#

The omnissiah guided his hand

#

@edgy cipher pretty much

#

To sum up; lasburst twin las (literally 2 las barrels), las repeater (downscaled multi laser with 3 barrels), las with lascutter (a normal barrel combined with a tri-barrel below it) and finally the normal las with bayonet lug

#

Of course, interchangeable stock with maybe a folding attachment if wanted

#

If not running the normal or lasburst variant it will need a triple power pack extender however

#

How does this sound;
Twin las; lucius las caster - Twin Las
Lascutter/1barrel; Lucius las caster - Las repeater
Las Multi Laser; Lucius las caster - Multi laser

void rivet
#

The Admech are way less conservative than what people think

obtuse sinew
#

Though the IG will get you for illegal or unsanctioned modifications, so, always ask your superior officer first

#

and maybe make the modification under supervision

void rivet
#

Meh, not much more that most National armies at this time

#

If you modify your weapon and break/degrade it it could award you with a punishement

hoary ermine
#

Pretty much

#

youre allowed to: Repair

#

improve within logic, adjust for personal comfort/use as long as its revertible upon your death, upgrade (within logic)

#

So, if youve been in service for long enough, you can purchase your own lasgun, around a months wage for most conscripts, a weeks wage for most sergeants/captains

Is that... An DE helm?

dusky mango
#

that helmet probably has spikes on the inside

potent rampart
#

I like it because it’s pointy and reminds me of the redemptionists style

#

Body is neophyte hybrid and arms/backpack are from the scions

#

I’m considering either of these as general colour schemes because I like the idea of the inquisitor taking the best or repentant killers for his killteam

Thanks everyone!

#

I've been trying to get back into miniature painting recently

#

I got a new brush and set up a wet-pallete

#

But my paints seem so inconsistent

#

Like red paint won't go down and make clean colours

#

But others will come on to heavy, is there something else I need?

sand tulip
#

what color primer are you using

dusk hill
#

Also, which paints are you using? Diff paints have different qualities

zenith tundra
#

Uh

#

I use black spray primer

#

And I use Citadel paints

dusk hill
#

hm right, and are you thinning them or just using them straight out of the pot?

sand tulip
#

yea you need to thin the paint and wait for it to dry for a min then add another layer

dusk hill
#

ye. Okay so minor textwall time

zenith tundra
#

Well it waters down on the wet-pallete

elfin yew
#

Hes using a wet pallete so he should he fine on thins

#

Have you tried shaking the pot before taking paint out? For me, the paints and their like bonding agent tend to detach and the agent rises to the top and has to be mixed

#

Esp with metals

sand tulip
#

black base mostly overwhelm the first layer of paints

edgy cipher
#

That's why I like grey primer

dusk hill
#

If paints aren't coming through properly then that could be a number of issues. It could be that your wet pallet is too wet and is thinning the paints down too much, ideally a wet pallet should just be moist, not actually wet. Some ppl also make a big deal about using parchment paper, idk I don't use wet pallets much.

There's a sorta sweet spot with paint thinning wise, it shouldn't hold its form (e.g. it should form a cohesive pool, you shouldn't be able to shape it) but it shouldn't be super watery. If it's too thick you run into the paint coming on too heavy, if it's too thin you'll need tonnes of layers (let first layer dry completely, paint the second, let that dry completely, etc) to get a good cohesive finish. If your paint is thinned correctly it should only take two layers, tho that depends on a bunch of factors.

One factor is, like other ppl said, the primer. Black works very well with dark colours but it might be troublesome to get a good flat layer on if you're using brighter colours, cus the shade of the primer effects the layers above it.

And like jeanstealer said, some paints also get fucky when in storage. Some of them don't but if it looks weird when you open the pot then def shake it around until it looks normal again before using it

#

my personal preference thinning wise it to get the paint on my brush and dip it into my pot of water a few times until it's the right consistency

#

so long as you're thinning it right, painting in layers and making sure the paint doesn't clash too badly with the primer you should be good. The whole light-colours-being-annoying-on-primer thing is why people hate painting yellow and white

Oh what an amazing one

Quick question: I am new to the hobby and want to make a full primaris Blood Angels sucessor chapter. I can't help but feel that if I do not have flying chainswords then I are not representing BA heretige properly. Primaris Marines have no version of the jump pack assault marines. Assault Intercessors just walk and Inceptors are a fire support squad, not close support (you can't convince me otherwise). I make that claim because even though Inceptors are close support in the rules (If I remember correctly) 2 guns, particularly the plasmaguns option, feels like a very stupid loadout for close support. To me they feel more like highly mobile fire support for actual close support squads with jump packs, mele weapons and pistols, which are what I desire to create.
So, to cut a long story short: If I were to put jump packs on assault intercessors and play them as assault marines to fulfil my image of what I want my primaris BA successor chapter to be, is that allowed and or should it be?

hoary ermine
#

Make it what you wnat

#

@dusky mango basically

#

anyone complaining your army isnt correct because of X detail is being a bit fucky

#

theyre the models YOU buy

#

there are currently only 2 types of jumpy units for the primaris and those are the inceptors and the accelerator autocannon guys

#

Look into those and maybe have some decorative items

#

I have a whole mutant forgeworld for crying out loud

dusky mango
#

thank you. I was thinking about tring to find a way to get something like the MK4 jump packs and sticking those on the backs of the assault intercessors.

edgy cipher
#

Thats the magic of 40k you could homebrew your own chapter and it would make sensr

hoary ermine
#

Basically yibble

plush swift
#

also, unless you are doing armies that are meant to be for official tournaments you can use whatever you want as proxies

hoary ermine
#

my own forgeworld suffered mutations due to their STC helping them survive

#

doesnt mean its out of lore though

hoary ermine
#

I had someone whine that its not fluffy because the mechanicus dont accept this

#

but they do

#

just read up and ask around a bit for what you would like for your army and youre pretty much good

#

Heres a few do's and dont's tho

plush swift
#

stick metal wings on them that's cool

hoary ermine
#

Dont: make it better than something that is described as The best in their branch
Dont: overfluff to make up and try and jam in all you can, sometimes less is more
Do: Be happy with what you can make and accept that sometimes you need a break
Do: See that sometimes you need to take more time than youd like, think around

#

Like an example

dusky mango
hoary ermine
#

My unique forgeworld? what do they provide?

#

Better gasmasks

#

Theyre a forgeworld in a largly water logged system, so their gasmasks can pull air from water

#

thats all, next to them using solar auxilia style suits

edgy cipher
#

I mean you could go the Sanguinary Guard and create jetpacks if you have a 3d printer or are good with miliput or greenstuff

#

Stick that on assault intercessors and voila

hoary ermine
dusky mango
#

thank you everyone. If I ever get this done I will be sure to share my results

#

they also have bird DNA

dusky mango
#

like penguins? for being aquatic. or flying? or Ostrich speed?

hoary ermine

Spread around, a bit different per person

#

anywho be unique but within the lines

#

and just think long and hard

dusky mango
#

flesh is weak, so feathers must replace it

hoary ermine
#

Indeed

plush swift
#

i have an inquisitor with a dreadaxe that isn't actually an axe

dusky mango
plush swift
#

a two-handed sabre

dusky mango
#

that sounds 1: really cool 2: big enough to caught in every doorway that was not designed for space marines

plush swift
#

an elegant weapon for a more civilized aAAA FUCK IT'S EATING AWAY AT MY SOUL SHIT FUCK OH FUCK

dusky mango
#

*to get caught

plush swift
#

yep

dusky mango
#

like a deamonhost but a sword?

plush swift
#

and nope, it's actually smaller than the axe counterpart

dusky mango
#

that must be aukward for the sword when the inquisitor fights chaos

#

assuming they still do

plush swift
#

a lot of radical inquisitors employs daemonic weapons and lore to fight the forces of chaos

#

others take instead to cooperating with xenos, employing inhuman mercenaries or using xenos weapons

#

you just mustn't get caught doing that by anyone that would take up issue with it

dusky mango
#

"why yes my puritan colleague that screaming weapons locker is completely normal and not worth worrying about at all"

plush swift
#

yep.

#

also, the sabre in question is approximately such in dimensions

#

thus easier to carry than an axe would be

#

no need

dusky mango
#

imagine if this could be done with members of the Legion of the Damned. Imagine having a power or force sword that was possessed with the spirit of a loyalist space marine

#

Im going to give that to my chapter's chief librarian

plush swift
#

i'm not sure you can trap a non-daemon's soul in a weapon like that

#

at least i haven't heard of it happening

dusky mango
#

well the Emperor makes and maintains deamon like entities so it could probably be done.

edgy cipher
#

Nothing mentions him creating them

plush swift
#

to eat other daemons, duh.

dusky mango
#

I see the Big E as a counter Chaos God

edgy cipher
#

Nothing in the lore ever mentions Big E being their creator directly

#

And yes The Emperor has anti daemon powers he is called the Anathema for a reason

dusky mango
#

Like he went through the gate of Moloch and studied the Chaos gods, their methods and deamons and now, wether or not he planned to he is using their methods against them

#

*Molech sorry

hoary ermine
#

so far for my lasgun mod document

dusky mango
#

nice

hoary ermine
#

i am hating the amount of bureaucracy i have to sift through to find administratum and munitorum documents

#

this is why Papa Smurf exists

hasty sorrel
#

guns are legal to mode as long as they do not threaton weapon reliability

hoary ermine
#

depends completely actually

#

theres like, 3 documents that have to be made for modifications

#

that is, if its not a field mod into the accepted mods

#

Just pop by an aspirant or a techpriest to bless the gun after you did it or to fix the small issues

hasty sorrel
#

i mean ye

#

its no different to actual military

#

where we have gun smiths

hoary ermine
#

Yeah pretty much

plush swift
#

they're cool aren't they

dusk hill
#

!! ooh that is pretty

plush swift
#

tbh my main reason for this is that i don't like axes. pollaxes and halberds yes but not axes

dusk hill
#

i think if i wanna get a new sword i'd get a straight sword or something tho

#

i already have a sabre

hoary ermine
#

i personally like axes due to utility

#

get me a native american space soldier boyfriend

Gonna be working on doing the barrels of the laspew tomorrow

#

i want a click-release system or friction fit for the thing tbh

hoary ermine
#

So im redesigning the barrel support a bit to make sure the thing is ready to hold both barrels

#

But uhm

#

well i found a small issue

obtuse sinew
#

what is the issue, clever creator of things?

hoary ermine
#

Well the barrels are frotting

#

but i fixed it

#

the lower barrel has no primary offset

#

so im ordering barrels tomorrow

#

and im widening the cut of the original support by a few cm

obtuse sinew
#

ah, I don't really understand, but I hope it's fixable

hoary ermine
#

okay so

#

The barrels are humping each other

#

Too close onto one another

obtuse sinew
#

alright

goddamnit i have to order 10 euros worth of items at my hardware store to be eligible for pickup rn]

#

i cant just order 1 TOOb

obtuse sinew
#

damn

hoary ermine
#

im really scared of ordering TOOB tho

#

cause like, im not allowed to return it right away, its pick up and fuck off

#

tho, i dont have to fear much i guess considering it seems reasonable in size on my end as the 3d file shows 32.00mm

#

i can sand if need be

obtuse sinew
#

alright then, well, sounds like it's all well in hand

hoary ermine
#

#

I have found a barrel in my storage

#

why would you have a barrel of that kinda stuff?

hoary ermine

Cum barrels are important

obtuse sinew

real glad you ended up getting that one...

I am a member of the adeptus cumtanicus

maybe ill branch out the purpose for more than a token

ah ok

I was just saying that it's fine to draw something even if just for the reason of a token

hasty sorrel
# twilit cliff What's wrong with vraks?

it changed death korpe from elite zealots to suicidal idiots who walk on landminds to diffuse them. its a very poorly written set of books that culminated in something like 12 billion dead guardsmen and the entire planet running out of ammo

#

the planet was a fortress world

#

its an actual garbage piece of writting that is only not the worst piece of 40k writting because c.s. goto exists

ah, then you don't love Vraks, you love the art that was inspired by it

Plus some parts of the lore

#

Like the khorne assault that even drove the death korps in such terror that they fell back

#

wow

#

hot take but khorne is lowkey still the coolest chaos god

#

he's generic and boring af but still

How can it flow if it is crispy huh

#

tbh i think someone here said this but like. chaos gods are basically just those online intelligent learning bots that turn into horrific fascistic hellbots after being exposed to the internet for like 24 hours

#

No one says the Warp makes sense, bud

void orchid
#

Oh god lmao

dusk hill
#

except the internet is just the entire universe's supply of souls

void orchid
#

Yeah, the twitter machine learning bot experiments

dusk hill
#

IT FITS SO WELL

void orchid
#

It does because they're just a reflection of what they're fed by the collective internet unconscious

dusk hill
#

Yee

#

my hc is that chaos gods aren't even sentient tbh. They're just like

#

weird mindless soul leeches created cus reality sucks balls

hasty sorrel
#

they are emotions manifest

#

i feel they are more a direct entity and more just an influence

void orchid
#

Would you say they are a hive mind of souls/emotions?

dusk hill
#

yee same

#

like. imo they're more like vague concepts that influence reality through the warp, as opposed to actual coherent like

#

beings with a single intelligence and goals and stuff

hasty sorrel
#

yup

void orchid
#

Theres a few cool quote from fabius along those lines

hasty sorrel
#

thats my take which is why we never directly see any of the chaos gods

#

we basically see champions of concepts

dusk hill
#

one person's khorne isn't necessarily the same as another person's khorne

hasty sorrel
#

peoples consumed by the influence

dusk hill
#

yee

hasty sorrel
#

its why the whole "but khorne is honorable" thing is so weird to see

#

cause like

#

he doesnt care

#

its the specific cults that care

#

its why you see non combat khorne cults, that just kidnapp people and conduct blood rituals

dusk hill
#

nods

hasty sorrel
#

its a more interesting take imo

#

but its a spooky concept for most people i guess

#

cause it makes chaos more slow and insidious

#

you can't shoot a concept

dusk hill
#

It's sorta the take i always had. Like, ppl talking about chaos gods as actual entities is just but no that's not how that works tho

void orchid
#

It's like assigning intelligence to a hurricane

hasty sorrel
#

if they were actual beings, why havent they manifest in the history of ever

#

we see demons that claim that the gods are real

#

but thats because the power feeds to the demons as well

dusk hill
#

i mean, real is sorta relative with all warp related stuff in any case

#

demons aren't really traditionally real either

hasty sorrel
#

you know what i mean tho

unless one wants to cuddle

But i learned today that balancing barrels and working them out straight is hard

#

but just lots of busy work

I wish you the best of luck withn that barrel

Ohhhhhhhhhhh

#

Love that Lasgun

hoary ermine
#

Thanks, so far a normal lucius

#

great work mate

visual bolt
#

bout to drop a bombshell on you lads

#

heres my felinid (ex) imperial guard, long time in the making, but just in time (i guess) for Darktide

#

pardon the nakedness but thats just to show off the scars, i dont think its too offensive to the eyes

proud gorge
#

it's fine

#

lookin' very tactical

junior sphinx
#

Is that a ripper gun?

plush swift
#

so i guess they don't have six tits like cats

#

she looks like if she stands in a door, you're gonna need a howitzer to get through, which is a compliment and a very desirable trait for a guardsman

visual bolt
sand tulip
#

that must be a freaking huge felinid for that size of a ripper gun

uncut olive
#

I still need to deepen the shadows and do the hair. But any recommendations for getting the scars looking better?

sand tulip
#

cool man, perhaps the scars on the eye follows the contours of the eye a little

uncut olive
#

Ok. I’m wondering how I could add a bit of depth to the scars. I looked around on google but couldn’t really find anything.

sand tulip
#

shade in the recesses?

uncut olive
#

I tried doing that and then lightening the edges but it just kinda looked strange

plush swift
#

put a bit more definition to the edges

#

specifically, more to those that would be in the shadow

sand tulip
#

are you using software or handdrawn?

plush swift
#

so usually lower edge

uncut olive
#

Ok.

#

Software

plush swift
#

also scars often tend to show stitch marks

uncut olive
#

So like?

sand tulip
#

hmm... try putting that scar on seperate layer and reduce its opacity

uncut olive
#

Ok. Thanks for the advice

plush swift
#

i draw deeper scars darker and if they're particularly large put a hint of the stitches in

#

you can do this in b/w too by making the side that would be shadowed (if the scar is a depression, then it should be in the opposite direction as the lighting on the rest of the body, if it's raised the shadow will fall in the same direction)

vivid rune
#

@plush swift I would pay top dollar for a commission piece from you god damn

plush swift
#

that will become an option once my school tasks are over...

#

though it also depends on the subject because there are things i can draw well and things i am trash at lol

prettyboy snob commissar

#

what else do i do with his outfit

#

and how do i put his coat on

proud gorge
#

strikes me as the type to button his coat up

plush swift
#

nope because cuirass

proud gorge
#

ahh I see

plush swift
#

the choice is more whether he's wearing it

#

or has it pinned to the shoulders of the cuirass and just billowing behind him

#

but i'm animating this character for a run cycle

#

so i can't make it too complicated

proud gorge
#

probs the latter

#

but idk

plush swift
#

are the faces distinct enough

proud gorge
#

they're the same character yea?

plush swift
#

nope

#

different ones lol

proud gorge
#

well there's your answer lmao

i mean to me they don't look similar but i'm used to the designs of my characters

Calm down Sargent. It’s not horny , it’s just a woman. LICHERALLY just drawing a ref of my character without any clothes like I do for every single one of my characters to scope out how they look under the clothes, I never draw icky genitals bc its not necessary and that’s not why I’m drawing them without clothes

genetic diversity is an easy fix, just steal some genes

the cool thing about this is, common weasels all come from 7 individuals (or species? I'm not sure)

but yeah!

AND ALSO

This means that they might be able to increase the genetic diversity!

By recreating older weasels!

They were people she knew, and so she kinda killed her whole squad in a “transport ship accident”

should i add a lever to the lucius lasgun?

no

#

add a turn dial to it tho

I will

#

im thinking, im seeing a lot of notes where the lucius lasgun has a uh, whats it called

#

green beam, instead of a red one

#

Result of the lenses?

green cave
#

Probably it is the result of it having a bit more power than normal lasgun tbh

#

Like, red is the colour of a normal laser, blue is the color of plasma, green in the middle since the lucius pattern has a stronger power output than a normal lasgun

hasty sorrel
#

lasguns can have different beam colours yes

hoary ermine
#

Hm yes yes

#

i am adding a crank too i think

so you can manually put a shot back into the pack
