They look like a god damn hindu god

[crisp forge]

And to think people still want Slaanesh's squatted

gtfo lol

[vivid rune]

What?

[elfin yew]

Who

[vivid rune]

Wait people wanted that?

[crisp forge]

Yeah some people still say shes uncessary or "explicit" because of the horny fans

and im like "PEACOCKS BRO"

https://tenor.com/view/peacock-bird-fabulous-wiggle-tail-gif-16360988

[vivid rune]

Ill be honest when they launched aos i didnt like it because they squatted slaanesh at first

[crisp forge]

Sorry kids its your turn on the harp now

[vivid rune]

[elfin yew]

Tbf she wasnt rlly ded gone. Her position rn is pretty neat

[vivid rune]

I fucking love the enternal enraptress

Am i the only one that does the opposite of GW?

They always called slaanesh a "it" like...bruh... So i always say "they"

But like

It

Comeon gw wtf

[elfin yew]

Yee I usually say they

[vivid rune]

I love the single sided breasts on the model

[crisp forge]

I usually treat them as girls because im gay so

[vivid rune]

Sometimes i paint them smooth

[crisp forge]

[vivid rune]

Sometimes i paint a nipple

Sometimes i paint a mouth

[elfin yew]

😳

[vivid rune]

[elfin yew]

The celestant wasnt lying

Those titties do scream

[vivid rune]

These nips DO come off

[plush swift]

😳

[vivid rune]

As much as i like the addition of the gluco big guy its just not my cup of tea so this is a good centerpiece for me

[elfin yew]

Speaking of AoS stuff

I wonder who the new big 'antagonist' of action is gonna be now that the soul wars are ending

I'd really love a destruction faction spotlight

Maybe orrukz + the rest mixed in

[crisp forge]

Orruks?

OH ORKS

I FORGOT

do they have a big head honcho?

Grimgor isnt here yet

[elfin yew]

They do yus

Tho I forget his name

[crisp forge]

LOL

[vivid rune]

Biggess bossist

Thats his name

[elfin yew]

Their battletome is really funny

There's a story about them routinely defaming a statue of archaon

over and over after archaon repairs it

[crisp forge]

God i hope grimgor comes back soon, like hes gonna, its a smart business decision. But its just a matter of waiting thats killing me.

[elfin yew]

Probably not

There's already a charcater who fills his spot

no reason to bring back WHF characters when they can be filled by new ones

[crisp forge]

If Sigvald can come back im pretty sure he can too

[elfin yew]

Oh I mean he can

It's just that there's no special reason for him to

[crisp forge]

Yeee i get what you mean but we'll see

[vivid rune]

Wuzzrag needs to come back

[crisp forge]

they'd make even more bank if they did i think

[elfin yew]

Wurrzag does

YES

[crisp forge]

him and his dancing

SOMEONE POST THE GIF

[vivid rune]

They sully his model by making it a generic lord

[elfin yew]

They should make him a new model with oversized feet

y'know

for dancing

[crisp forge]

https://tenor.com/view/wurrzag-total-war-warhammer-dancing-warhammer-fantasy-greenskin-gif-15577128

I wrote it on discord gif search

not dissapointed

[crisp forge]

NOOOOO

[vivid rune]

Lookatemgooo!!!

Also goblin boy didnt come back and he prob wont

If gw forgot him during endtimes whyd thry remember him now? Lol

[elfin yew]

LUL

[crisp forge]

You fuckers

[elfin yew]

Atleast we got the Loonking who's maximum lulz

[crisp forge]

[vivid rune]

Hes

Funne

[elfin yew]

I actually like the Loonking more than I like any of the WHF named gobs tbh

Except maybe that one that grom sat on

[vivid rune]

Blacktoof?

[elfin yew]

yes

[vivid rune]

Ead in a jar

[rose sluice]

blacktoof is an ork is he not?

[vivid rune]

No

Hes a night goblin shaman

Who grom sat on

[crisp forge]

I keep confusing it with Makari

who Ghaz also sat on

LOL

[vivid rune]

Now they keep his head in a jar and it still speaks to grom

Makari is a fucking G

I love bringing that stupid mother fucker on the tabletop

[rose sluice]

total war changed the icon for blacktoof so he looks more like an ork

[plush swift]

hey brohs...

anyone wanna see my new defiler?

[vivid rune]

Ye

[plush swift]

Before

After

[vivid rune]

Noice

Wait

Oh wait nvm

I confused that for a different models thats ALWAYS sold out on WH website

[crisp forge]

The fact that you could make that awful model look badass is worthy of all the praise i can give

[rose sluice]

i like the defiler

what's wrong with it haha

[vivid rune]

Crab

[rose sluice]

crabs are cool

[vivid rune]

https://tenor.com/view/step-back-bitch-crab-knife-gif-5128633

[rose sluice]

powerful opponent

[plush swift]

the defiler is simply a dreadnought that evolved to crab in the warp

[rose sluice]

i hate how generic the designs for them are tbh

they don't seem to have very much customisation for different legions out the box

[uncut olive]

It doesn’t even have massively over sized shoulders

[plush swift]

i put a little tau skull on him now 🙂

[crisp forge]

[plush swift]

i wish i was a tau fire warrior

i wish i was in 2004 playing tau fire warrior

[rose sluice]

hellish

[plush swift]

it was the last time i was happy

[vivid rune]

That game brought you happiness?!?

[crisp forge]

Its a fun game!

as awful as it is

[plush swift]

i was like... what 11 years old?

every game is good when you're 11

[rose sluice]

oh yeah

just doesn't seem to have aged very well

[plush swift]

oh yeah

it was fuckawful

but it was like the only 40k game to get bolters correct

[vivid rune]

Speaking of orks

[plush swift]

yo i got a buncha lil chains and tiny barbed wire and metal piping

how should i put it on the defily

[rose sluice]

lookin fresh

[vivid rune]

Its not a new boyz kit

sigh

ITS LOOKS SO FUCKING COOL WHY ARE THEY INSISTING ON MAKING THESE SEPERATE MODELS!?!?!

They arent boyz

They arent knobs

There inbetween?!

So is it just going to be an underpreforming and overcosted model to take?

[obtuse sinew]

😔

[vivid rune]

Btw

Nobs already suck

They are super over costed for being a little bit better than boyz

Sooo

Man this is frustrating

[deft gorge]

i think they´re neat

i gotta admit with all the new stuff announced already this is very cheap

but at least its something

but it all depends on the points if they´re worth it

[vivid rune]

Either theyll suck harder than nobs

Or theyll be a way better choice than either boyz or nobs

And throw ork lists into this weird position

[elfin yew]

tfw weird/forgeworld models are your best units 😩

[vivid rune]

Exactly

[elfin yew]

fucking

dimaechs

are so good

but I do not want to pay for them

[vivid rune]

I like bikes and cars in my ork list

[deft gorge]

i guess it will be like 9-10 pts with a unit cap of 20

[vivid rune]

Im not putting squig riders and generic brand snakebytes into my list just to make it preform

Thats not good design lol

[deft gorge]

this would suck alot

[vivid rune]

I feel that

[elfin yew]

Yeah it's sad

I'm starting Tyranids soon and like

all the good units are fucking

FW monsters

which are like 160 each

Like uhh

barbed dules and shit

[void orchid]

💸 💸 💸

[deft gorge]

speaking of the snagga boyz i think they will have access to heavier melee weapons like big choppas

and maybe even those funky spears

[vivid rune]

Most likely

Power spears?

They work the same as the meganob weapon

[deft gorge]

maybe they have a range stat

[vivid rune]

Wait

Not meganob

Stormboyz have them

Power stabbas

[deft gorge]

fits them i guess

a big stick to stick big stuff

now give them some improved WS when fighting monsters and maybe vehicles then boom have the theme fulfilled

[vivid rune]

Good against vehicles

Nobody is taking them right now lol

Also tankbustas

[deft gorge]

yea but monsters and vehicles are the same basically

[vivid rune]

Outside of a snakebytes list i dont see the appeal of these guy and i want to like them so badly

They just look the exact opposite of how i do my orks

For fuck sake

I paint blue jeans

On my ork boyz

[deft gorge]

i just hope they rework the other klan kultures so there wont be evil suns and deathskulls spam

[vivid rune]

Yea

[swift arch]

Practicing some basing and more camo cloaks

The Suppressors aren’t fully painted yet

[rare solstice]

Nicely nicely

[plush swift]

Here's how it's changing: we're not doing it any more

[rose sluice]

na, it's on hiatus

[vivid rune]

you can thank a little chunk of covid for that and a big spoonful of brexit for it

its mostly brexit

[obtuse sinew]

Hey @hasty sorrel I'm getting the Isle after all y'all's praises of it

[hasty sorrel]

haha

its super early atm

the dino stuff is fun but its mostly community hunting packs and stuff

[obtuse sinew]

hey, even if it doesn't have a ton now, it will have more, clearly

[trim hemlock]

And maybe just a little bit of the Ever Given

[vivid rune]

Its actually mostly brexits fault

Since this boxset was manufactured over seas in china, the very recent tariff that has now been implimented hit GW really hard with that box set and butchered sales

The box

Doesnt make them money

Thats why they gave up on it, it is a net loss to make now

[elfin yew]

Bri ish moment

[dusky mango]

CCP moment

[elfin yew]

Evil ccp making britain brexit

???

[dusky mango]

nah, just evil CCP being the CCP

who put the tariff on who btw?

[void orchid]

God damn freemasons pulling the strings and charging me 💸 💸 💸 for my fantasy green army men that are always out of stock

[elfin yew]

Xi personally paid me xibucks to shutdown the 40k mini market

Chaos agent

[vivid rune]

This is literally the brain dead UK government fucking up its own businesses

Guys

Its ez

Just like

Produce locally

I dont care if youve been doing it one way for fucking 10+ years

It could of came from anywhere

[dusky mango]

in the short term. long term we absolutely 100% have a plan and know what we are doing

[vivid rune]

Its about the raw materials coming from somewhere outside the UK

Doesnt matter if its china, america, etc

That got them slapped with a giant and very new tarrif

[elfin yew]

Conservatives in the UK blowing their own legs off then blaming the rest of the world as they fall

[vivid rune]

But guys 80 year old farmers wholl be dead by time this all got implimented wanted this

[dusky mango]

yey democracy

[obtuse sinew]

So when is Scotland leaving the UK again?

[vivid rune]

Is it really democracy if all your politicians come from 2 extremely expensive universities and were apart of a drinking society that allowed you to do shit you should be publicly shamed for instead of becoming a prime minister?

[vivid rune]

When the irish start giving out free cars again

[obtuse sinew]

hmm

yes, here is your key sir politician, right there is the car, yes, don't bother checking the engine it's all good

[vivid rune]

Reminder that tony evers fucked a severed pigs head in college

Guys were just a little drunk is all comeon

Fuck im talking about uk politics in a hobby chat lmao

[dusky mango]

I wanted to vote remain but couldn't vote at all 💀

[dusky mango]

same thing

[elfin yew]

When James owns the UK

All will be right again

[dusky mango]

James?

[elfin yew]

James Workshop

[dusky mango]

lmao

[vivid rune]

Good ol james workshop

[elfin yew]

Corporate ogliarchy of england. Controlled by High Chairman James

sh*t u weren't supposed to find out

[lapis tundra]

How bad for health is plastic glue? Ive been glueing some terrain and breathed in the fumes for quite some time now

I don't even choke anymore when breathing it in

[void orchid]

Become the glue

[lapis tundra]

Plus head feels pretty light now

[void orchid]

All I know is fumes are pretty bad if repeatedly inhaled for a long time, once or twice is not a big deal

Obligatory ' I am not a dogtor'

[obtuse sinew]

wearing a mask would be a real good idea

[void orchid]

Yeah

[lapis tundra]

That sounds like a solid advice

[void orchid]

Double plus good if you make a mini booth for venting airbrush and paint/glue fumes

[lapis tundra]

How did i not think of that myself?

[void orchid]

Too much glue huffing

[lapis tundra]

I guess

It does smell pretty good tho

[void orchid]

Oh same, that and I think gasoline smells good

Stupid brain

[dusky mango]

it does

[lapis tundra]

It really does

[void orchid]

Forbidden juice

[dusky mango]

it REALLY does!

[lapis tundra]

Like a parking deck for example smells like heaven

[vivid rune]

I airbrush and glue in my office with no spraybooth or vent what so ever

[lapis tundra]

Lung cancer gang!

[vivid rune]

Not to mention i smoke meat as a job so im constantly exposed to smoke

[lapis tundra]

Damn

[vivid rune]

I hope i die young and pretty

Im here for a good time, not a long time

[lapis tundra]

Same, kinda don't wanna get old tbh

[elfin yew]

Just stop aging

[lapis tundra]

But getting hit by a truck seems better than dying of cancer

[vivid rune]

Honestly

I regret settling down extremely young

Im 23 and i feel ancient

I wish i wasnt married and have a kid right now

I wish i wasnt tied to all these obligations

Not yet at least

[lapis tundra]

:c

[vivid rune]

Kinda wanna run away from it all and start new

None of my resources or time would go to anything but myself

Id be nice

[lapis tundra]

Im hate the feeling of running out of time

Which is kinda retarded since im 19

But on the other hand thats like 1/5 of my life already gone

[dusky mango]

yeah being this age is trippy

[obtuse sinew]

seems like y'all spend way too much time thinking about what coulda been and not enjoying what ya got

[lapis tundra]

Stop hurting me :c

[vivid rune]

What if you dont enjoy what you have?

What if the moments of happiness are so few far between the long stretches of unending sorrow and melancholy?

[elfin yew]

this is giving me ultradepression

[obtuse sinew]

then you probably get some medicine and all that

[vivid rune]

American healthcare moment

[elfin yew]

Honestly antidepressants ar ereally cheap but meds won't solve everything

I actually really dislike american psychiatrics focus on drugging people

[void orchid]

Finding the right medication to deal with depression can be a long painful process

[void orchid]

Also this, most of my 7th grade year was spent being put on a bunch of different meds to try and make me more normal

[lapis tundra]

I got bullied at school but then i made my first job training (is it called like that?) and made a few (only 1 tbh) friends. Unfortunately contact broke off so i hope when covid is over we will meet a few times instead of canceling any remaining contact

[elfin yew]

Pretty much yeah. It's a issue but I suppose it's from a reason. There's material conditions which are causing the rise of mental illness, and the psychiatrist cant attend to those

[void orchid]

My takeaway has mostly been that I'd rather try to learn ways to deal with my dumb brain than to try and chemically mess with it and end up making things worse

But that's a personal thing, everybody's different

[vivid rune]

I came from the mid 2000's " idk wtf is wrong with them, lets just put them on pills for ADD and hope for the best" gang

[void orchid]

Adhd gang rise up

[elfin yew]

Yeee

[vivid rune]

Then pulling the big funny of

[lapis tundra]

Im still high on glue fumes, gotta get some sleep now

[elfin yew]

Hobo's found the true mental healthcare meds

model glue

[vivid rune]

"Guess what youre 18 were moving half way across the US and no more pills also youre starting college now"

[void orchid]

Adhd meds make you more depressed, depression meds make your anxiety worse, and anxiety meds make it hard to focus

Fucking end me lol

[vivid rune]

My parents still dont know i attempted to take my life that year

If they did, i doubt they would understand why they didnt have to foresight to see what lead up to it, why would they have it now?

[void orchid]

I feel that

[vivid rune]

I lust to send myself to oblivion's arms

[dusky mango]

for what its worth I'm glad that didn't work. vibing with u is awesome

[plush swift]

I second this. You got too much work to do, Puddle Grammaticus. No oblivion for u

😌

[grizzled stump]

Dwarf man is coming along nicely

[plush swift]

man, das gud

[vivid rune]

@plush swift @dusky mango thank mates, that means alot

[dusky mango]

Always here buddy.

Well nearly always

I have to go to sleep now but I'll be around again tomorrow

[plush swift]

we gotcha buddio!

[chrome niche]

My oldest niece said to my sister, after asking if I was married, that since I'm not married I still get to have fun.

[vivid rune]

@chrome niche dont settle down until youve experienced all that life has to offer you and you want nothing more that the piece and quiet

Otherwise your good life will feel like nothing more than a golden cage

And a golden cage

Is still a cage

[chrome niche]

Hah, peace and quiet.

[vivid rune]

Yea, piece and quiet

[lost carbon]

It doesn't end. It will never end. Only accelerate. I'm 30 now and that existential doom keeps getting worse and worse. Wait until you start a career and your coworkers are 15 years older than you; you'll start to realize that they'll be retiring when you're their age. When you're that age they're dying.

[vivid rune]

Ez

Just dont die

[elfin yew]

Get a better gaming chair

Never leave it

Immortality

Thats what kroak did

[uncut olive]

Yeah. Science will catch up

I plan on living forever (or at least until I get bored)

[plush swift]

I made a Kitbash of a Chaos Dreadnought to act as a proxy for a Chaos Contemptor bc I'm not spending ~100. I'm really proud of it! Ignore the messy background

[uncut olive]

That’s cool

[lapis tundra]

That would be terrible actually

Since overpopulation will become even more of a threat then

[uncut olive]

Yup

It’s what’s going to happen though

[lapis tundra]

Yeah

[twilit cliff]

Will you guys stop filling me up with more existential angst it's only ten in the morning

[green cave]

I can feel this, well, in part... I lack the job part sadly

[green cave]

Nope mate, i refuse to send away a great person...

[green cave]

I agree and share this

I think this chat needs some support

This is for everyone that feel down, i hope it help you all, or at least make you laugh a bit

[obtuse sinew]

Mate, 1) overpopulation is not a threat, we have so much goddamn space you would not believe, 2) if we can make people fucking IMMORTAL why would resources even be an issue? By that point we would undoubtedly have the ability to produce night infinite food and water and all that, which is something we basically already do, in that we throw away way moer food than we eat

[rare solstice]

Additionally, at least at my work place the app "woebot" is recommended for people to try. I doubt it will fix everything but i've heard good things.

Ooof 1 second too slow and we slip into futurology

[obtuse sinew]

actually that's the end of the conversation, as far as I'm concerned

[plush swift]

Why would servants of the God emperor be lacking in motivation?

Lack of motivation = lack of faith

Have you not done your morning prayers?

[green cave]

I don't pray, but i don't lack motivation... I lack emotions though

[hoary ermine]

by the time we know how we can improve people to the point of immortality, space is never going to be an issue ever again

advancements lean on each other

[lone dust]

im still waiting for a mattress to be invented that is actually comfortable

[plush swift]

I sleep on the floor like a fucking inhuman urchin

[hasty sorrel]

[plush swift]

Oh god DAMN skele, you’re duckin good

[hasty sorrel]

Spent an evening showing my cousin you can paint fast and get details good

[trim hemlock]

https://www.warhammer-community.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/0MwHN6iRJnAIzq98.jpg

[hasty sorrel]

tau?

or necrons

[trim hemlock]

Thought it was Tau for a second but the more I look at it, it feels Eldar-ish

[rose sluice]

not gene stealers?

[hasty sorrel]

definetly not gs

[rose sluice]

don't they have floating tech

[hasty sorrel]

you are right undead it looks kinda eldary with the uhh

soul stone looking nodules

but eldar dont tend to have buttons on their stuff

[rose sluice]

the hand is too small to be necron or tau

[hasty sorrel]

i dont think

[potent rampart]

hands look like eldar

look at knuckles

have little gems

[hasty sorrel]

imma say eldar or tau ye, the gems look eldary but its like a weird handheld disk

stg if its just a giant death frisby i give up

[hoary ermine]

either tau or eldar considering there are the air caste

[twilit cliff]

So it's not van saar?

[hasty sorrel]

im leaning more towards tau honestly

very unlikely to be van saar unless they are randomly expanding one gang when each gang so far has been one and done

[green cave]

No, it isn't ours

[crisp forge]

Probably Tau

eldar gems are usually more oval

[rare solstice]

Tau tend to use tech/consoles too more so then eldar who lean to more like spiritseer shiz. Could be a tau who like controls drones or stuff like that

[obtuse sinew]

yeah

I was thinking that the thing looks like the drones

[rare solstice]

Maybe another "packmaster" esc unit, with 1 controller and a bunch of machines

[dusky mango]

your work is incredible

[hasty sorrel]

thanks

[dusky mango]

that's really cool

[dusky mango]

I think it might be an inquisitor. It looks like the disc is based on Tau tech but also appears to have what could be Eldar soul stones in it (one at the right of the top segment another at the bottom of the low right segment)

also I can't imagine the way it is being held fitting into a Tau pose

it looks like someone is yeeting a frisbee

[dusky mango]

I see a thumb with 4 fingers. I just checked some Tau art and they only have 3 fingers. The being holding this is NOT a tau. It could be a traitor human serving the tau tho

[vivid rune]

Does it look cool? No? Its 40k

[crisp forge]

lmao

[dusky mango]

oof

[vivid rune]

Im making french toast

[hasty sorrel]

the sweet crackers or the egg fried bread kind?

[vivid rune]

Egg fried bread kind

[hasty sorrel]

[vivid rune]

I think i made too much batter

And now a whole loaf of bread is getting turned into it lol

[hasty sorrel]

goooood

[vivid rune]

Oh fuck

I got a lot of orders for french toast

[plush swift]

BROH

[vivid rune]

Thats

Easily over 400 dollars

[plush swift]

THOSE ARE FROM 3 DIFFERENT ARMIES!!! 😳

[sour hill]

🙏

[vivid rune]

How much?

[plush swift]

that's fuggin sick tho

[sour hill]

I'm into the painting/modeling. I haven't started building an actual army to play yet.

Thraka is OOP; got him for 70 from a local shop. Maw Krusha 110, Kharn 35 and Mephiston 40.

[plush swift]

Also: a lot of people complain about the price of the citadel tools, but don't listen to them, those tools are the best you can find, and they last.

[sour hill]

Not too bad.

[plush swift]

That's sick tho

[sour hill]

Yeah! I did my VERY first one entirely by hand.

[plush swift]

good haul

[sour hill]

Holding it all is brutal.

But now I have a way to hold all the big bases and stuff.

And I'm gonna' try my hand at actually doing custom bases too.

Eventually I'll build an army. Probably orks or blood angels.

[vivid rune]

Let me tell you

[sour hill]

I've got leaders for whatever I choose at least. 🙏

[vivid rune]

The mvp of that kit

Isnt thrakka

[sour hill]

THE LITTLE MAN

LMFAO

[vivid rune]

Its that fucking immortal goblin

[plush swift]

[sour hill]

It's SO good!

[plush swift]

GROTS WILL INHERIT DA WORLD

[vivid rune]

I send him to his death by making him charge the biggest threats on the tabletop

And he doesnt fucking die

[sour hill]

Just tie up the models for shooting and watch the dancing ork survive.

LMFAO

[vivid rune]

He wastes your opponents time

And the best part

It gets them mad

[sour hill]

Meanwhile Thrakka comes in.

🙂

[vivid rune]

The longer hes there

The more and more tilted they grt

And the more upset they are the more the focus on the goblin

[sour hill]

LOL

[vivid rune]

Meanwhile the rest of your army reaks havoc

[sour hill]

"All the Leman Russ turrets are going into the gob..."

But yeah. I took the day off; I got my second vaccine yesterday and felt fine but I feel like shit today.

So I guess I'm painting/modeling instead. 🙂 LOL

[vivid rune]

I feel that

[sour hill]

I'll keep everyone posted though, for sure. 🙂 Gonna' just do a cozy painting stream.

[plush swift]

look forward to seein how da contrast paints come out!

[sour hill]

For sure! 🙏

[dusky mango]

yeah!

[sour hill]

Mephiston WIP

Contrast painting style is SO fun.

Feels more...comic book/heroic?

[obtuse sinew]

oooo nice red

Cheers! This is my second model ever, so I'm still learning but I feel like I understand the contrast layering a lot better now.

[main bobcat]

Almost done

Maybe 2 more days and I should be finished with him. Gonna take my time.

[obtuse sinew]

he's looking pretty damn good

[sour hill]

@obtuse sinew Thank you very much! 🙂

[plush swift]

Woah

That looks cool

[vivid rune]

I just got paid to paint

[sour hill]

@vivid rune Now THATS a treat. Maybe I'll get good enough to do the same one day. For now I'm happy painting for my shelf. 🙏

Loving the blues on the Necron.

[vivid rune]

@sour hill work has be babysitting sausage for so long i got stretches of time where im doing literally nothing, so i brought my painting

I painted on the clock, therefore i got paid to paint lol

[kind rock]

Puddles does make high quality paint jobs though

[plush swift]

https://youtu.be/u_2LG4y7U28

Nice tutorial

[vivid rune]

Awe thamks

[sour hill]

Even better!

[vivid rune]

I cant wait to get these two commissions done already so i can get a nice flow between my cursed city box and dailara's yvraine

[plush swift]

Today I made wild mushroom and sausage ragu and it was good. 😊

I dont even like mushrooms normally, but this was delicious.

[chrome niche]

What...kinda wild mushroom?

[plush swift]

porcini

[chrome niche]

I do love mushrooms

[vivid rune]

Yooo this man using PORCINIS!!!!

Hell yea i fucking love mushrooms

[plush swift]

🙂

[plush swift]

It's me again, after changing a few things and beginning painting, I got into the groove and got this! My take on a Thousand Son's Chaos Dreadnought

Looks great

You should try and maybe "dirty" it to make the colours less bright

I used some old makeup on a tank model to simulate grime and dust and it worked pretty well

Yeah, I'm hesitant because I feel like I'll Jack it up lmao

[vivid rune]

@plush swift agrax earthshade is what i use on blue and gold necrons to dull them down abit

[plush swift]

I'll have to add that to the list of things to get, thanks for the suggestion, I'm working with like only Nuln Oil here haha

[plush swift]

i just use agrax on literally everything

but then again

my boys are very dirty

they do not shower

[plush swift]

I bought something on etsy that said ‘corpse piles 32mm’ expecting them to be on a 32mm base

Always could glue the Champion on top of the corpses, itll make a nice mini diagram

[lapis tundra]

Oof

[hoary ermine]

Im thinking of calling the system defense laser my forgeworld has G.E.I.S.E.R

Galactic Energy Interception Stability Engagement Ray

[dusky mango]

like a massive warp gun?

or is it fueled by gravity?

sounds very cool

much dakka

[obtuse sinew]

Big Laser with cool name

Ah, and then you can call it Old Faithful!

[hoary ermine]

@dusky mango its a set of dyson swarms that power platforms on their sun

[dusky mango]

oh wow

that souds fun

[hoary ermine]

These platforms transfer the energy through mirror arrays to the planeta to convert power

[dusky mango]

but how will u shoot it at night

[hoary ermine]

Let me get the passage where they weaponize it

''A most marvelous design saw their star weaponized. Truly fictional from the ancient texts that we read from in study, the planet's mirrors aligned, not to provide power to its sprawling network, but to output the energy beam through space, illuminating its presence and that of the array through the very cosmos around us. From night, the planet went to day as its mirrors aligned rapidly, a thick, tremendous flash of energy blasting out from its upper regions. The ship was cut down and subsequently atomized in rapid succession, its void shields flickered out in only a mere moment as the laser approached, allowing us to take good document of the pure and raw power of a star-engine.''

[dusky mango]

to be fair, although hiding behind things to dodge the sun sounds easy in theory it means that all any defence fleet has to do is to drive an invader out of cover which can be done by forceing them to dodge torps and then make them dodge the sun

[hoary ermine]

There is nearly no hiding

[dusky mango]

nice

[hoary ermine]

They stripmined the inner asteroid belt to shreds

[dusky mango]

the Omnissiah's disco ball

[hoary ermine]

They have a massive defensive structure hovering around the planet and its 4 moons

Like

These guys had 15k years to armor up

This solar system is a fortress

[dusky mango]

clink clank this world is now a tank

[hoary ermine]

Pretty much

I have the doc on my computer but

[dusky mango]

that's an amazing world

where abouts is it?

in the galaxy

[hoary ermine]

The system has extreme defenses on all incoming warp routes, it has 4 moons gravitaionally tethered and atmospherically tethered to the planet

It lies to the galactic north west

In a former dark zone

[dusky mango]

nice

[hoary ermine]

They industrialized 2 of their moons and gave them atmospheres by prozy tether

The birds on the planet can migrate from one planet to another

[dusky mango]

now that is brilliant

[hoary ermine]

Youll find this one more hilarious

The fish can too

[dusky mango]

I rly want to see a normal imperial character traveling between the world and the moons and seeing this out of the window of their gunship

pilot crashes into the water in the middle of outer space

I like this planet

[hoary ermine]

"Fuck aaah Fish"

[dusky mango]

might be the first ever time the pilot had seen fish as well

"wait those space things also live in the water?"

[hoary ermine]

There are clear guides and space bouyes when they enter the system tho

Yknow to prevent washing the ships

[dusky mango]

but if the fish did wash the ships u could make a shark tale reference

[spark hamlet]

Leman russ for the 65th cadian armored finished

[hoary ermine]

Tonk

[feral ingot]

that's a tank

the tankiest tank

[obtuse sinew]

Damn he THICC

THAT'S ONE THICK ASS BOI

also nice mud stains, very cool

[hoary ermine]

Weathering can do a lot for a model

Its why i like weathering my skittlws

[spark hamlet]

Thanks 😃

[chrome niche]

Great dirty look

[vivid rune]

Progress on this stupid fucking thing

Im almost done with this commission thank christ holy fuck

[void orchid]

Quite the tail on that one

[rare solstice]

whats the issue with it?

[quaint halo]

Got my Major Kill mini

[lapis tundra]

Noice

[dusky mango]

Noice

paint it as a word bearer and send it to him.

then tell him that u turned him into Erebus

[quaint halo]

Lol

I was going to do an Iron Warrior

[vivid rune]

Just not enjoying painting it

[quaint halo]

Anyone done 3d printed models like this? Do I need to clean it with soap and water?

[rare solstice]

Fair enough! Tricky or just not fun?

[dusky mango]

will it come to any harm if u do anyway?

[dusky mango]

now u mention it that would make a very good IW

[quaint halo]

Not really but I just want to make sure the paint sticks

[uncut olive]

I think it depends on what kind of material you used

[plush swift]

I found a really good ukranian store that makes high quality alternative models

But for some reason, every female model has the “no-top” option 🥸

[lapis tundra]

[obtuse sinew]

yikes

[plush swift]

Worst part is

The topless repentias are a “best seller”

[obtuse sinew]

YIKES

[lapis tundra]

By the emperor..

[void orchid]

Classic gamer move

[plush swift]

Dude just imagine that though.

[sour hill]

LMFAO

[plush swift]

You’re chillin at the gamestore trying to find someone to play a 2000pt match

[void orchid]

You gotta play against some smelly dude with titty repentias

[plush swift]

And this guy comes up to you

And busts out

NAKED SISTERS

All of them

Just butt naked

Fully painted

[sour hill]

Sisters corrupted by Slaneesh.

🙏

[solid idol]

I mean objectivly I don't think its bad but if you plan to be in a public setting where kids might be around yeah just go clothed lol. On a side note thinking about kit bashing ideas ect and at what point is a model not considered offical(tournement wise ect). I know its typically by store, but lets say I buy an offical SM model then add some bits from non GW stuff is it then void.

[plush swift]

And never mentions it

[lapis tundra]

I would cry and then run away screeching

[void orchid]

Do you think he tips his fedora to each one of them in turn, saying 'M'lady' softly

[plush swift]

You just look at him

And he says nothing

No one mentions it

[sour hill]

He's just half mast the whole time he plays.

[plush swift]

You just play for like 5 hours

[lapis tundra]

I think its just bad taste

[crisp forge]

[plush swift]

Your girlfriend or female friend stops by to say hi or bring you some fast food and she just stops mid sentence when she sees them

She says nothing either

Just nods and leaves

[void orchid]

Same people buy card game sleeves with nekkid ladies on the back
Just why

[plush swift]

LOL

[sour hill]

Hey. The wife respects my hobbies.

[plush swift]

I was just told by my local bartender that they kicked a guy out of their weekly magic game for that

[sour hill]

Even if they're perverse. 🙏

LMFAO

[plush swift]

Theyd play in bars and stuff

And he just whips out ahego cardbacks

Anime girls covered in.....

[sour hill]

YIKES

[void orchid]

GOOD

[plush swift]

you know

[sour hill]

Literally no shame.

[plush swift]

Apparently the guy literally had no idea that it was weird

he was completely confused

[lapis tundra]

Im fucking dying lmao

[obtuse sinew]

wow

yikes

[sour hill]

Some people are that detached.

😔

[plush swift]

Maybe the crazy christians were right when they said porn warps people's brains

[solid idol]

I haven't played Magic in forever, ton of new stuff since I last tried it.

[sour hill]

Hey hey hey.

[plush swift]

My friends say the Commander format is awesome, but it really does seem like it's based on spending the most amount of money as possible to win.

I just want to play the regular game but no one wanna

[sour hill]

Porn hasn't done shit to me. Work lasts until 5. Depravity ensues after. 🙏

[lapis tundra]

I literally don't get the point of using horny minis/card sleeves. Is it to show everyone how much of a sad pervert you are?

[void orchid]

Commander is super fun, but imo only in a relaxed setting with friends not using turbo expensive cards

[sour hill]

I'm literally just getting started. I'm building my first 1000 pt. army.

[plush swift]

I don't think if someone has become a sad pervert, that they know theyre a sad pervert, ya know?

[sour hill]

So I've got a LOT to learn.

[lapis tundra]

Now im kinda worried

[sour hill]

Hobo doesn't know...

👁️

😂

[plush swift]

OH JAMBO HOW GOES MEPHISTY?

and have you decided which army ya gonna make?

[sour hill]

I'm going to soup.

[plush swift]

imperial soup?

[sour hill]

I want to mix Grey Knights with Blood Angels.

🙏

[plush swift]

nice!

[lapis tundra]

What the..

How does that work rules wise?

[sour hill]

Mephiston is coming along. Painted some more last night, but I've been busy with work lately.

[plush swift]

just add a different detachment

[sour hill]

Exactly. 2nd detachment.

[plush swift]

you'll lose cp for it probably but still its cool

[sour hill]

Should be a lot of fun.

[lapis tundra]

Oh ok

[sour hill]

Extra relics. Deep strike terminators.

[plush swift]

That's all contrast paints?

[lapis tundra]

Makes sense

[plush swift]

on mephiston?

[sour hill]

All contrasts and layer paints, yee.

[plush swift]

looks so good

[sour hill]

Thanks man!

I definitely want to get some Nuln Oil to shade him more around the armor, but so far so good.

Just taking my time for now. Got a lot to learn about painting AND playing. LOL

[lapis tundra]

Dont go too heavy with nuln oil

Pro tip

[plush swift]

Ask your local gamestore about doing 40k demos!

They can teach you how to play!

[sour hill]

For sure. I know you want to be really, really careful with it.

And yeah. Once COVID blows over I want to learn.

Bad.

LOL

Gonna make lots of small armies for fun.

[plush swift]

i just got my 2nd vaccy shot

time for the mutations to begin

[lapis tundra]

Noice

[plush swift]

Also jambo

[lapis tundra]

Didn't even got my first one yet

[sour hill]

I got mine too on Monday. Tuesday I was knocked out.

[lapis tundra]

Here in germany they are still vaccinating the old ppl first

[plush swift]

Once you learn the rules, a website I like to look at to get some ideas on how to play specific units/armies is https://1d4chan.org/wiki/Template:Warhammer_40k_Tactics

Ignore the rest of the website though

[sour hill]

If it's chan related I know it's cursed.

[plush swift]

it's kind of.... unpleasant

[sour hill]

But.

[plush swift]

BUT the tactic pages are legitimately good and interesting

[sour hill]

I'll definitely have to look around.

I'm checking out Wahpedia for now.

To understand the basics. Watching lots of Play On matches too.

[plush swift]

actually, watching matches is probably a better idea tbh

I just never go on youtube at all

[sour hill]

It's 40 minute summaries. I should watch full on matches. Some 3 odd hours or whatever.

While I paint.

[hoary ermine]

it is Thick Coat Thursday my dudes
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/195404877688602624/624388482747596800/True_Meaning_of_Contrast.mp4

[sour hill]

AHHHHHHH

It BURNS

[hoary ermine]

Embracing the 1 thick coat

[lapis tundra]

😳

At least its contrast

[hoary ermine]

its a video i made a long time ago when contrast just released

its a pot of basilicanum grey used to texture up the snow into gritty slop gravel

[sour hill]

That's dope.

I've got some army painter red stone I'm going to use for a very "mars" earth feel on all my bases.

And a box of skulls. 🙂

[vivid rune]

"Make it look normal" is all i have to go off of so i guess they want boring fucking colors and i super undercharged for these

Theyre expecting my best work and i charged them 15 per mini

Im a fucking idiot

These take me several days to finish so im essentially making .5 cents an hour on each model

[obtuse sinew]

oof

[vivid rune]

Im not making this mistake ever again

[obtuse sinew]

yeah, that sounds like a good move

[rare solstice]

yeah that's a bit grim

[plush swift]

Just overprice your services

You cant go wrong

[quaint halo]

So I cleaned the mini. I'm gonna stop by my gamestore on payday and get some barb-wire to wrap the arms and backpack

[compact umbra]

Hey has anyone made any Xenarite minis or art? I just want a bit of a reference point for my Eldar themed Xenarite

[sour hill]

@vivid rune Hello, Master Puddles. I would like you to paint an entire Emperor's Children army for me using your best work, but please make it look normal. I will pay you your going rate of $.50 an hour that I know is great money for you!

[plush swift]

I want the same thing, but I want a Lamenters army, and I want the checkerboard heart on both pauldrons on every model

for this i offer

2 full candy bars

[hasty sorrel]

i just want some french toast

[vivid rune]

@sour hill at that point id just settle for "ill pay you in exposure" lol

[plush swift]

aahha

[void orchid]

Don't forget to specify that you want it to look normal

[vivid rune]

Thats the part that got me

My ONLY fucking instructions

[void orchid]

Yeah

[vivid rune]

"Make it look normal"

[void orchid]

You see the same shit with web design

Vague instructions for the clairvoyant

[vivid rune]

Im glad i got a "red skin black hair" out of em later

[uncut olive]

I cringed when I thought of having to paint all that yellow

[sour hill]

@vivid rune I have a whole 170 followers on Twitch. This can literally make you famous. Up to you if you want fame and fortune.

Old patriarch lives in my heart as possibly one of the ugliest models ever

I love him

[vivid rune]

Is he still kickin on ebay?

[elfin yew]

No idea

[plush swift]

i found him on one of da forbidden websites

[elfin yew]

I did see where someone had the throne-version and used the new patriarch + the throne

[vivid rune]

Should I?

[elfin yew]

yes

but only to melt him from this earth

[plush swift]

PUDDLE

DONT

DONT

[dusk hill]

DO IT

[plush swift]

no you'll never get it

[elfin yew]

🔥 Remove the Ugly 🔥

[dusk hill]

Give him the best paint job u can

[plush swift]

I ordered something from them a month ago

[dusk hill]

Oh

[plush swift]

its still in russia

its just going in circles

[dusk hill]

The patriarch is a lie

[vivid rune]

I see

I was browsing their weres

Alot of it seems like illegal recasting

[plush swift]

it is

very impressive work so figured people wouldl ike it 🙂

[lapis tundra]

Looks like a conversion to me, the claw hand is clearly from the posessed chaos marines box

Here is the original mini

[vivid rune]

@lapis tundra that entire website is full of illegal recasts

Wouldnt suprise me if it was

[twilit cliff]

The name of the website kinda gives it away

[misty pecan]

Yes you see we dont call it getting "banned" around here. Instead we call it an "isolated incident."

Occasionally we also call it "getting sent to the ranch."

[proud gorge]

yes

[sour hill]

LOL. That Spongebob is so cursed.

[obtuse sinew]

yeah it is pretty obnoxious

[hoary ermine]

Naturally we also have "sent to the penals"
"Servitor applicable"
And the perfectly suited "out the airlock"

I still need a backside plate for my robot

Gonna get his character sheet updated this upcoming month

[quaint halo]

So I contacted Major Kill on Twitter. It's a resin kit so doing the normal Forge World clean up is what he suggested. Already got it washed and dried so I'll prime it after work

[hoary ermine]

Good luck

[obtuse sinew]

May your hands be steady

[minor thicket]

when I get pinged as a mod I don't ban them, my hand just slips

[obtuse sinew]

of course, of course

[green cave]

The out of the airlock part remind me of that short story where an elevator get yeeted in space from an ark mechanicus iirc with a tech priest inside it

Did you change his weapon? Or does he come with a sword

[lapis tundra]

He did change it

Originally the dude got some kind of two handed mace

[rose sluice]

I thought so

Looks good still

[lapis tundra]

It does

Prefer this version over the original tbh

[void orchid]

Betrayed by the motive force

[weary nexus]

I feel that maces are not vampire enough. so I like what I did

[obtuse sinew]

fair, this looks great

[spark hamlet]

Finished a new version of one of my officers in the 203rd colours and will be doing a heavy weapon team after

[sour hill]

Love the detail on his jacket/medals. Nice work.

[spark hamlet]

Thank you 😃

[sour hill]

I think tonight I'm going to focus up and finish Mephiston. I've been feeling really productive today. Cleaning, organizing, etc. around the house between meetings and calls.

I want to finish my boy up.

[plush swift]

Anyone know how i might darken the red on the shoulder pad?

@vivid rune plz help

[weary nexus]

Could try a nuln oil

[vivid rune]

Layer with a darker red in the recesses or use

Lemme find it

Carroburg crimson

[plush swift]

[vivid rune]

nice barbed wire tho

[quaint halo]

I'm thinking chaos black

[sour hill]

Alright. Probably one more solid night of painting Mephiston and I should be done.

I got all the basing done, minus the Tyranid skull.

[vivid rune]

Lmao you have the buttplug painting handle @sour hill

[sour hill]

I have both.

LMFAO

But this one has been really, really nice for turning the whole model upside-down and getting really hard to reach places.

And when I'm done painting, I can sit on the handle for further enjoyment.

🌝

[vivid rune]

Oh shit

I never thought of that

I need to get one asap

[sour hill]

🙏

I'll share.

😂

[vivid rune]

Lmao

The upside down reach part is cool too i guesd

[sour hill]

Yeah. That's really the biggest thing for me. The other is great, sturdy but wide and bulky.

This one I can get way better views with my ONLY overhead light currently.

[uncut olive]

Nice. The purple looks good

[narrow needle]

Nagaroth Night

I thought that Primaris were slightly taller in lore.

ik that the models are difference bc proportions

[green cave]

They are taller

[hasty sorrel]

they are taller

hense i pointed it out

[dusky mango]

ah ok

[hoary ermine]

Like, a foot at maximum

But with armor it can differ a bit more

[narrow needle]

Custom painted for a friend who doesn't play 40k lol, but considering their personality probably emps children

[dusk hill]

tbh i adore every depiction of taumarines

i also appreciate the goddamn railgun pistol

why are u bothering with using the sword just bop him in the face with that

[hoary ermine]

"Melee, at range"

[grizzled stump]

dwarf is all finished up just need to base him now

[rose sluice]

Very handsome

[grizzled stump]

[vivid rune]

@grizzled stump nice use of ork bits

[grizzled stump]

No orc bits here, just pure dwarven engineering

[surreal iris]

My 3rd party wyches have finally arrived

They are so tiny, compared to my SM, no idea how I'm going to assemble them
