laser melee weapons have been added since then
havent' gotten around to using the Kaiser set to build the Tallgeese because that set is absolutely for building the Tallgeese
they know their audience
It's like Armored Core + Gundam?
more gundam
bit more Zone of the Enders too
you can focus on melee or ranged but you are best off making use of both
it's faster than armored core
more forgiving in aiming too
Hey, should i keep the bottom square as a base or remove it?
Very nice
I think it looks good as a square?
but im not a modeller so my opinion isnt that of an expert lol
is this monster hunter but gundams
oh god how expensive is that terrain
Damnnn. That looks so cool.
@hoary erminePart VN Part horde fighting game in varying terrains and scenarios but it's also not finished, that's what is in now
Looks good as is. Gives it a certain visual heft?
Yeah i finished and im starting to print, just gotta re adjust the heating bed
Forgot you were printing something for a second and was like a heating bed sounds comfy
Thats around for like a year or so
Idk when did dark uprising launch?
@vivid rune and @crisp forge Do either of you have the artistic abilities to turn a Veggietales characters into an Inquisitor?
And while you’re here, why did I ask you here? This is more of a meme more than anything.
Give me the character you wish to be inquisified and I shall try my best with my mediocre editing skills
You’re character, m’lord.

Good luck.
o no
oh no
this is going to be brilliant
''allow us to introduce ourselves, Inquisitors from the emperors holy inquisition.''
@shell yacht lmao i dont know how to use editing software
Then draw him.
Paper?
Id post my old art but im sure snake cock isnt safe for this channel
oh
oWo
Fair point let me find it
No, i think it wouldn't be... But DM exist sooo
banned for lizard coc
god i just thought of a good meme to draw later for 40k (unrelated to my last message)
Heres an orc i drew
Kinda
You mother fuckers made me go through a time capsule misery that was my 2016 google photos
i feel old, thats 5 years ago
now your the other person
to clarify, the last was a joke,not insult
Idk where the fuck this was taken lol
Comicon?
I think anime milwaukee
I wanna go to a comicon one day
Digital is just cleaner
Wraith no please youre gonna get buffed in 2021
Imo I rlly enjoy him now
lmao
I remember playing beta trapper
A reaaaaaally cursed picture of me
And old flickbilly
Lmao
@crisp forge you want to see an extremely cursed picture of pre ascension puddles?
nice
that's going rent free into my nightmares
Thanks i hate it
❤️
Poifect
Beautiful
@dusky mango i think my favorite jumpscare in the game is the one where the lady screams while her jaw unhinges and then a baby fetus emerges out of the mouth reaching for you and also starts screaming
wtf
Ye
is that what fundamentalists think happens in planned parenthood clinics?
i wonder what would happen if i punched her throat
@gentle talon theres a key she pulls out
she would get angry
And hands to you
Also her tongue slops out
And its fucking long
Oh
Shit
Yea the aligator lady from KOTD
Holy shit
SHOW
Shes a cool monster design
i like alligators
she bites?
i'm unsure but this may count as nsfw on gore side
dont bother me but might be worth checkin
Thats her mouth @hasty sorrel
im aware
Shes a demon lol
yes
Thats her bite attack
i am aware
thats...
she just keeps being better and ebtter
Dreadout: keepers of the dark is a good horror game
People sleep on the dreadout series
i think i might get this game
Its fun
KOTD is a boss rush game btw
Dreadout 1 plays like fatal frame
Dreadout keepers of the dark is fatal frame darksouls
Dreadout 2 plays like silent hill
i have never played any of those games before
Here we see the ultramarine thats gonna get stomped by a mech, a former dark angel in gravis armor and his first advisor
Just need 1 more generic marine to be given the shaky business by the local drone
well, did something wrong assembling my Aggressors, and my attempts to fix the mistake backfired, so now my blood has been spilt, and I'm pretty sure that I broke the bits
On the plus side you got bits for your other minis?
I too love kitbashing/converting
Wip mortarion
That looks uncomfortable to use
Good job but make sure you somt drive any particles into your skin
I took this pic when I was cleaning it, it was uncomfortable to wield so I grinded off any pokey/janky bits and then wrapped the handle with athletic tape
And thank ya
Oh aight then
You guys have any tips on doing jungle bases
Fish tank plastic plants maybe?
real shit
@crude urchin Totally badass knife. You sure you ain't an Ork?
Looks like a might fine choppa.
i really want to put stocks onto my astartes bolters
like i saw thius guy's conversion where he uses lasgun stocks and puts in on bolters
My balcony spiders had put up a net right in front of my balcony door.
They want me
it's your own fault for being delicious to spiders
apereantly the cat expects you to eat it
i guess its mimicing the behavior of adult cats teaching kittens to hunt for themselves
cuz your cat thinks your kinda dumb and dont know how to fend for yourself or seomthing even though your probabaly feeding the damn thing and yourself all teh time but iguess thats instincts for you
Cuz if you ate it i guess the next step is bringing you along on the hunt lol
I just have a ton of spiders on my balcony. Even more when I got it full of plants and flowers. So I guess they know where it's good to live
Parrots like to feed other pets and people too
Was reading it on a thing about cat behaviour not saying other animals dont but i could also see that as just part of a birs social dynamic
Animals can do similar things for different reasons
And if you read up on cats apperently alotta stuff these days say they kinda do see us as just large wierd two legged cats
Also birds are generally more advanced in social areas then cats
I kinda want a bird but simlar to rats They tend to live shorter or ya id feel bad not being able to give it the level of attention they nee
cuz i also know they bond very strongly
One rider down two more to go
im finaly getting my monolith print done, but im afraid its too small
its like slightly bigger than hand sized
Then ask for measurements on the real monolith
I got my first display plate delivered for my diorama
🙏
one of my friends is currently making a pretty big (I think) Tzeentch pyramid for one of his colleagues
looks like a multi-level monolith with thousand sons-like flame motifs
I'll see if I can get his authorization for posting some of his wip
kinda look like pizza stones
Thinking about buying a baneblade or manticore artillery tank just to convert it for my renegade militia "army"
Somebody stop me
Dewit
How can we possibly stop others when we can't even stop ourselves
Definitely do it
But i already spend like 200€ on necromunda a few weeks ago 😭
OOF
"Dear grid reference"
It even comes with renegade guard crew
That looks sick
But i can't spend another 125€
Its getting out of hand
Guess il just wait a month or so
I need help
Yeah
the drivers are on the ''back'' of the barrels
so they can re-deploy and keep firing
I just love the looks of that beast
Also how does the crew not get smushed when that thing fires
Hope its just perspective
perspective
@lapis tundra our pain
its the imperium they just put a new crew in every time it takes a shot
Me too
I like his style
those ones always have massive dark souls vibes to me
Nice
Skeletons are more aerodynamic
I also dont know if their profiles will be different
I see skeletons being more swingy, and zombies more durable
Yeah thats p much it
Well
Atleast in LoN
Skeles worked better with danse macabre
Skelebone swarms with a gillion attavks
No idea what Soulblight with them will be like
Oh you're talking tabletop ?
Damn, funny in Dnd 5e danse macabre also works better with skeletons
Yeeeep
Swarms of skeletons and necromancers buffing them is like a mainstay of Boner Time
I assume Soulblight will be similar
TWW 2 I assume ?
Oh
I know a bit about AoS
Yeah, Zombos are good for screening your heroes
Pretty tanky for their costs and can lock up dangerous foes in melee
Skeletons are good at killing hordes
That's the extend of my knowledge
Become doot
I mean
Reject skin

I like my fucky skin thank you very much
Im a metal skeleton
I am a skeleton covered with muscle. I shed my skin long ago.
Necrons/ mechanicus in a nutshell
The shit i ordered about 2 weeks ago finally got send!
Now another 2 weeks waiting for it to arrive
I guess they finally decided what type of shipping they should use
Lol jezus
Time to begin setting up the farm ground on my diorama
Im gonna put the bike and the dog on a slope/height point and pull a bit of a stream of water along the wheat
@plush swift what in the peak of the everfuck mountains is that?!?
it's a kitbash of a mutant cultist from the Eye of Terror campaign codex
When you thought it was Friday but it's actually just Thursday
When you have a dream of being at work only to wake up to have to go to work

@vale sleet sickkkkk
Tried doing a grim dark UM sergeant. Kinda boring but I'm proud of him😋
NICE
It looks great ! Try to be careful about moldlines if you can
looks great man!
@edgy cipher Definitely. I didn't even notice that line on his arm until now. Thanks!
First miniature i finished this year
Still waiting for the other necromunda stuff i ordered 😔
That shading! Love it. Great details on the control pad.
@lapis tundra What the fuck. This man paints a door better than I can paint an HQ figure.
😔
the monitor and metal surface are amazing
Thanks
Metal was just leadbelcher, 2 coats nuln oil and drybrush of necron compound
I played with the thought of adding text or something to the screen but decided against it
I'm so excited to get my Nuln Oil and Agrax in the mail soon.
it works really well as it is
My figures will benefit a LOT from shading.
Everything does
Broken wrist? Apply nuln oil! BAM fixed!
I'm stoked. I think it will elevate a lot of what I've already painted. Especially the HELL that is Imperial Fist yellow armor.
Painting yellow can be a pain, i would try to limit the agrax earthshade to the recesses tho and leave the rest of the armor as it is
Yeah. That's the plan. Just Agrax the overlapping metal pieces and recesses.
Post some pictures once you painted them :)
Tor Garadon has some major flared metal pieces all over so it'll be nice to help those pop and not just blend into the mush of yellow.
For sure!
Indeed
Nice, I like it
Nice weathering on the broken panel
You seem to be good at painting, I'm surprised you don't share stuff more often
@proud gorge
!!! woah that's actually really good
Can you...?
the lil computer is amazing
Lil bot can do a lot
And also pls don't ping incan he's already gotten one
Ah
poor aussie
Gotta wait for him to wake up
Anyway sculptamold is great
Waiting for that stuff to dry
It takes 30 minutes and then its rock solid lol
Your rogal dorn looks fucking incredible! Good finish for first model of the year
Thats because im an extremely slow painter
Also my phone camera sucks and lets most of my stuff look bad
But thanks, i will try to paint more often
👍
Do it at your own rythm
Good work takes time
And I can def see you bothered far much than I would have for a simple door
And that's dedication
I really take too long, i got way too lazy
Thanks, it was actually just to test if the scheme i had in mind will look good
But im running out of leadbelcher spray
The only time I bothered this much was for the inside of a valkyrie I was sure people would see
I mean how many doors ya got left ?
1 2x1 door, 2 1x1 doors, 4 1x1 walls, 1 2x1 wall, 6 colums and 4 12x12in floor tiles
And when the stuff i ordered arrives i get about twice as much to paint
I did spend too much money
Mocking up the model locations
@hoary ermine what is that for?
Man i love 40k dioramas
50k in this case
Or dioramas in general
Oh thats pretty interresting
do you know the premise of the fan concept 50k?
Im not that familiar with it tbh but i guess its just 10k years in the future
The emperor is fucking dead, he did the big dab and nullified chaos on terra and took one of the chaos gods with him.
we dont know which chaos god is gone
The eldar are no longer dying (Not related to the chaos gods) and the drukhari dissapeared.
The orks re-evolved into the Krorks and are in a permanent civil war.
The t'au got rid of the ethereals and exist all about the galaxy now, fighting small skirmishes against each other in the east.
The nids lost the norn queens and went feral, mostly inhabiting the ghoul stars.
Space marine chapters shattered into warbands clinging to their fame, honor and ''birthright'' of ruling the galaxy.
that is very cool and mostly just seems like a bit of an improvement
on the current state of affairs
man what I wouldn't give to get rid of the Tau
quiet mongrel
the crons i forgot
they are pretty much just ''yeah uh, dont touch our stuff and we will be good.''
fairs
I just find them annoying.
TLDR they became territorial and will watch it all unfold
Yeah that fits them tbh
long as you let them be, they wont slap your shit to hell and back
and back to hell and back and back to hell...
seems I missed all the action
The hell happened?
The game released
Stop
it's no worries, glad Kaelus got it handled
The silent warden
Last one is a bit to dark to make out details but these are pretty good
I’d suggest staying away from black, go more for a really dark grey.
Yeah I've been trying that more lately as it's hard to go back after a hard drive failure angering the machine spirit of my pc.
Its still really cool though ngl!
I actually love the darkness
keep doing the hyper dark silhouettes
add detail as you feel comfortable
the outline, the silhouette is so important to the piece, the raw idea that the unrestrained silhouette evokes
its the first thing the brain recognizes
Haaah. Miniature Market sold out of all preorders from Soulblight GRavelords.
Can I post this here? Lol
The new addition is the deathmarks in the back
And the overlord with the war scythe
Necrons, the boys
Niiiiice
I cant count points properly, I play custodes, so I see two boxes worth of minis from an army and I think thats immediately 1000 points xD
UH
I mean. NO lol
I know deathmarks are 18points a model and I think lychguard are 17 points.
Yeah, I'm kidding lol. Does look like some nice minis. Like your painting on the dudes upfront
My deathmarks and lychguard are 175 points total. And ty. I know I can do better. It’s just been 15 years since I’ve painted minis. I’m rusty AF trying to do better before I go my custom army of necrons. That’s why I have the cheapo marines and orks in the back to practice more on first before I make my golden necrons
Oh dude gold? NMM or just... gold gold?
But I added some purple on the warrior as t’au blood spatter and some red on the claws of the scarabs
All that bronze will be gold
It sounds awesome. Post pictures! : D
It’ll be awhile. I wanna get a lot more paint practice in before I do
My deathmarks I want to have gold armor with a red targeting eye and prolly red flowing energy.
That sounds sick!
Or I may start swapping to the khorne red for my energy on my own custom necrons
Cause ya it’s great to have a painted army.
I want the army to feel like it’s MINE
Meaning I need to go get a khorne red technical paint and shader.
This of course was my F it move to necrons after I moved and my 1000points of chaos didnt make it
Unfortunately that can’t be replaced. It was all metal
Well pewter. But it went missing
Ooof. Thats a big loss man. =\
I feel that. I had some old school IG metal Stormtroopers. With the gasmasks and everything. I miss em still haha
What do you mean they didn't make it
WOW WOW WOW

He finished it and it looks INCREDIBLE.
Heresy!
It is one of the most fantastic models I've ever seen.
Absolutely incredible.
@plush swift Will appreciate the fuck out of this
Oh hell yeah he finally finished it
ITS SO GOOD
my boy
my boi is CHONKY
damn, that's one thickass boi!
i like both of them alot
Badass figures.
ngl that actually looks better
lmao thanks
Not a huge fan of them either, makes her look like a dwarf
that is some wild work, how the hell
so is she supposed to be a khorne or slaanesh boi
she's just black legion judging by the paint job
black legion dont exist in fantasy
i dont 
slaves to darkness
oh right
chaos unaligned
tbh imagine the stress put on the neck from a giant horn coming out of ur cranium
I'd cut that horn and stick it on her other pauldron
i'd give her a helmet
ye i can see that zher
and ye atlas helmet would be better
a shame cause the rest of the model is great
but GW face issues
IT
I do kinda like the snapped horn she has
pennywise looking ass
I feel like its stuck in a middle
Asking at the hair isn't attached to the shoulder plate you could just give her a head swap
Either its not pretty and people cry or its too pretty and people cry
There is no winning
idk the face looks fine to me
face isn't that bad
She seems like she'd stab you in the back
Maybe she'll get one
Or you could easily kitbash it
I see msot of GW's characters getting either a head or a helmet
Yeah i imagine there's a million chaos helmets u can use
Great
More event exclusive models 99% of the warhammer community will never get their hands on
Thanks gw 🙄
oh that's where they're from
Yes
gross
The new warhammer events and tournaments they apparently feel safe enough to host will have these for sale there
And in future events for 2021 through 2022
Im not a fan of event exclusive miniatures that arent primaris lutenent #3453
fair
Im fine with the marine variants because theyre just the same model in a different pose
shame. i like the body of that necron
I really like both of them and its upsetting ill never get these unless i spend 100 bucks paying off an ebay scalper
ebay wins again
Always will
I find it even better when you're thirsty in the middle of the night
🤤
Man i wish it would be a little hotter over here, we got like 15° the last few weeks
And its fucking summer
✨ it hailed so badly a few days ago that it looked like snow
We just got rain c:
Its boiling here
We went from below freezing morning to mild afternoons to 90°F (3°C) by lunch
And high humidity
It's kinda nice and sunny here but I'm stuck in office
I wanna prime my cursed city and GSC but not with this humidity
Some times all you want is a proper drink of cold water
I ended up finishing my turox prime and company veterans. I am thoroughly happy with how my models turned out.
Nice Taurox Prime
Niiiice
Black and gold is just fancy as fuck!
@vivid rune Do you know where to get this model? Saw someone say it was event exclusive but wondering where
Rlly want Her for when I build slaves to darkness
Yeah so probably ebay
Or that haha
Hate event exclusives, esp when they are one of the better looking characters for chaos
Big chaos women are my vibe
Same
Oh well, Khagra will do for now
Like this space marine terminator chaplain
Khagra looks better than this new one tbh
Yesss I do love her
Same
Slaves have some of the best chaos models across settings tbh
ESP with Archaon
I love new turbo dorghur
Hell yeah
Im having a hard time choosing between Slaves or blades of khorne, but I can use bloodcrushers in either army so I think I'll do slaves
Im not a huge fan of this varanguard cavalry tho, they really went overboard with them
Im a fan of big chunky cav
+they can be a troop option so yo ucan theoretically have a entire army with just archaon and his varanguard
Im not that familliar with aos but can't you just make a mixed army like in 40k?
Bloodcrushers/Skullcrushers remain the besto chaos cav in terms of look to me tho
Yes!
Even easier IMO
Since AoS' ally system is better/simpler
And I believe slaves can take any chaos unit that's not skaven
since archaon hates skaven
Yep
Same but they don't look that clunky to me, they just have really weird proportions
Ahh I could see that yee
Hell yeah!
People from the DT forums be like 'WOM,END DO NOT BEWLOGN INWE WARHAMMETRNHOJNREHBEOIRTHKNLKEJRTHNEROLKNHRKEHRNJKOEHRNGERERHJNERL;KHERTNERHLKRHENHLERTKNLKTERNHELKHENTLKHNMLKRT"
wow slender its almost like you read their minds
Anyway have some illusions for the last weapon I did.
@elfin yew those 3 warhammer events they just announced, that model and the the necron lord will be exclusively sold at events through 2021 to 2022 starting with the three recently announced tourniments
Welcome to event exclusives
pain
Prepare to pay a scalper 100 bucks for it
They're kinda poo aren't they?
Theyre fucking pooy most times and also really fucking weird how they work
Theyre all 1 unit usually with a gimick and all have different weapon profiles
Theyre just fucking weird
I reccomend going to the GW storepage for the ravagers to see their warscroll pdf @elfin yew
Yee I got u
I was just gonna proxy one as a chaos lord or such
Not run them as the actual unit
Hey guys I got a question
Thats one spicy boy
what optics should i add on the top left?
i got these
i removed the floodlight, felt unnecessary
Its looking nice!
... yes. Do it. Perfect
idk it feels like it clutters an already big model
Mmmm.... maybe just one or two?
well it looks weird with a gap
so iguess i have to put a plate over it and then see what scanners i want
TBH, I like all the scannerse on it, except the one in the middle bottom?
The others look kinda cool
neat looking model
Niiiice. It looks good.
Though it does look a little blank... Think you could do like.... rivets or something?
Well the open area is there for decal to fill in the emptyness
Ahhhh gotcha. Yeah, that'd work then
Ayyyy they're looking snazzy
I really aught to post my minis here.
same, buut once i paint them'
@vale sleet wait you paint them?
I thought we just half built them and then bulk bought some more?
no, but i want to
I thought thats what we do in this hobby?
Im getting that mother of nightmares model wednesday knowing full well its not getting touched for months
My back log is so bad right now
i think you can if you want
Sadly I lack both the time and money for miniatures right now, but I thought I'd share some of my art if it's acceptable for this channel?
@plush swift all hobbies are welcome! I love the boxy nature of that cowl very friggin cool!
Yeah it's a really nice design, and thanks. I am hoping we get a primaris Grimaldus at some point, but it might just be a case where if you wanted that, you'd have to do a conversion Black Templars are definitely my favorite and biggest source of 40k inspiration followed by Dark Angels and Ultramarines (mainly due to the availability of art/photos of the models)
I don't have much practice with animation, and this one is over a year old, but a lot of people seem to enjoy this servo skull
god i love good pixel art so fucking much
it just hits some sort of instinctive pleasure trigger in my brain
i love it mr doe
Thanks haha, I hope one day I can do the franchise justice with my art
Crisp
I love that dude
Loving scarab father
don't question it
Mayne its psychosomatic. They believed they had ot on their life eand they believe they have it now
Hello. I am a huge Warhammer 40k fan and I'm glad to show you my chainsword 3D model
https://www.artstation.com/artwork/B1RYmA
oh, I thought he meant 3-D printed
Oof
Good gob m8
@waxen sky These are absolutely incredible. Do you ever print/sell finished ones?
I will be building from scratch a full suit of space marine armor to cosplay in at some point.
Those are insanely high quality.
Static. But I don't think that rigging will be a problem here. It just wasn't the main goal of this project
Im dissapointed but understand why necrons havent realy been cosplayed
ah thats fine, they look great either way
just was curious
Nope, but i can publish model on sketchfab and you can download it for free, if you need it. It isn't printing ready, so keep that in mind
Appreciate it. Don't go out of your way, but if you decide to do that at some point let us know in here, please. Keep up the amazing work!
Also. Does anyone have images of or know about Deathwatch Heavy Intercessors coming soon?
I think I'm going to build a Deathwatch army and magnetize the chapter specific pauldrons on them so I can mix and match armies.
Might be!
I'm not 100% sure. Just was in a local shop and decided I'm gonna buy the Combat Patrol box for them. And then he mentioned "also, heavy intercessors next week..."
So I'm tryna gather info on it.
I mean
It's possible that the local store guy is less knowledgeable about it than a forum of nerds
Been leafing through the new vamp battletome and Vampirates are still a thing, although it's unclear how much swash and bucklery they still have
@twilit cliff Yee. That's why I was asking here.
I think they've been mentioned earlier as a skyfleet too
Lemme assure you as someone who is 50% up to date I have heard no such news
Someone could still correct me tho
I draw shit
!! pretty
Nice
nice
Out of curiosity, if i wanted to go for another army, what are easier, the adeptus mechanicus or the orks?
To paint or to play?
Issue is that both armies are infantry heavy
Admech is easier to play but holy ahit their models are spindly
Admech a bit less hordy
Admech is a lot less hoarde
If you look at average lists, they have alteast 60 skitariis
You arent making 80 boyz with choppas and sluggas
Mars lists even more
May go with orks, just cause i assume they got more commanders and stuff
Also less spindlies
They have way less bits to paint compared to admech yeah
It's also good training to learn how to paint skin
Well if i get a "thin your paints" moment its gonna be with the necrons first
@vale sleet orks are very old model wise
Also some sculpts just dont hold up well HQ wise since most named bosses are FUCKING RESIN
akh
I'd say the beast snaggas look like a good beginning
They have said its more than beast snaggas getting an update for orks
So you better just wait a few months till they release the new ork stuff
Does anyone know how to jump on preorders for black library?
I want to get that Thrakka book
I. need. That. Book.
I'd say that or get in contact with any local bookstore that orders from Black library and asks them to keep one for you
It has always worked for me
You can also pre-order them on the GW website but that's scalp central nowadays
This ones a limited one
Im not finding any listings for it
Its up for preorder this saturday I THINK?!
Yeah that's how it works. The stuff GW previews on Sundays are up the following Saturday at 12:55 EST
1255 pm or am?
PM, sorry should have specified
It sounds like your CST so that sounds about right
Heard
Now i need to make sure my paypall is loaded into GW and im on the fucking page i need to be saturday
trying to draw maps for wrath and glory but distracted making characters for lancer

Is art here allowed?
yes
not in the grim/dark of the 41st millennium
as long as it ain't wack
neat
Sadly still strugling to texture them in 3d
You got the general silhouettes down pat tho
Amongus?!11?!
no
CEASE

H0Ly SHiT Am0NgUSS!!1!11

Is there a reason why the miniatures costs like $60 for a squad of intercessors
Because games workshop wants your money
@plush swift oh sweety welcome to warhammer
Are you calling me a sweat
If im not carful ill spend 100 bucks in one fucking trip to the hobby store
Sorry, typo oops
Lmao
I have what they call
And if you play certain armies.... forgeworld will beat the crap out of your wallet
A highschool diploma from the state ranked 49th/52 state school districts
A telemon dreadnought and achillus dreads are expensive....
That includes puerto rico and the dc area, hence 52 and not 50
It's just weird because (a little sweat like me) have a done a few tank kits that I buy from Amazon and like a Panzer 4 that's 1/35 scale is half the cost of 5 miniatures
The detail on stuff like Space Marines looks good from the videos, but it doesn't look like it's masterfully crafted
I'm planning to do mainly Sisters of Battle, but I thought it was a good idea to practice on some regular space marines
Sisters have a lot of folds and hard to reach spots since theyre smaller than marines
The whole 8 ft super soldier vibe makes the space marines physically bigger then the guardsmen or sisters
It's obviously compensating for something
Those 90's miniatures always held a certain charm for me
Still got a box of chaos warriors
Since theyre the only cheap battle line for my hedonites army
Nice
the Classique or the new?
I plan on collecting slaves to darkness soon and I rlly like their SC box
I just wish Chosen and such had updates too
just ol chaos warriors
If you wanna practise on space marines I advice you to buy the cheap push to fit intercessor or reiver boxes
Part of why the boxes are so expensiveis because they usually come with multiple equipment options
something about these too looks different but i cant put my finger on it
Any suggestions on companies that make good fake snow?
I think I'm going to have Kharn running through some bloody snow.
gw stuff is aight
Liquid frost from greenstuffworld is fun
Vallhallan blizzard from GW is great
@sour hill
Forgot to post this a few days back but I finished my entry for my local GW's anniversary competition
Also yeah the GW is pretty solid for snow effect even in mass amounts
@vivid rune Thanks as always! I'll look into it.
@grizzled stump Cheers!
Good luck by the time way. The dirt road effect looks incredible.
Well it makes more sense what the dude at the shop was talking about. Heavy Intercessors are just now coming. So I should buy a box of that, upgrade sprues and the Death Watch Combat Patrol.
🙏
Can you field heavy inte as DW ?
Yes.
Oh lord
I wonder if the heavy bolt rifle have the heavy bolter keyword
If so its free mortal wounds
Please do!
So you ll be able to use the hellfire rounds
D3 mortal wounds
Here is the link if you want a look
Wahapedia: Space Marines — Heavy Intercessor Squad (stats, options, wargear, abilities and keywords).
Just put the deathwatch chapter
Wait I dont know if it will work with KT
They do, you do get stratagems
So you should be able to field one of your heavy intercessor with a heavy bolter or executionner heavy bolter and use the stratagem
Yep! Even if not in KT itself I'll still be dope for tabletop.
Heavy intercessors are very good, Especially on Kt
Yeah. That's what I've read a lot of.
Youll have your money worth
Perfect. Combat Patrol + Heavy box should be plenty for me for a while.
Both to paint and play with.
Thinking of magnetizing all the chapter shoulders too so I can swap them out as necessary on units.
You could play tabletop with a 500 pt game yeah
I dont know, does it change anything ?
So what can and what cant use special issue ammo? @edgy cipher
And doesnt it also kinda suck now compared to 8th ed?
All the weapons with the special ammunition keyword from what I saw
Well I saw the effects and good lord they look good
Ive only played DW once back in 8th with TTSim so my experience is lacking
In Kill Team, choices for special ammunition can have a huge effect.
The only weapons that have it by default are Deathwatch bolt pistols (which is NOT on the Deathwatch equipment list), Deathwatch boltguns (and their associated twin and combi-weapon versions), the stalker-pattern boltgun, and the vigil spear possessed by the Watch Master. Other units can get it via the Artificer Bolt Cache or by spending 2CP on the Special-Issue Loadout Stratagem, but otherwise that’s it.
Very small group of models that need to have max effect vs. the opposers.

Free 2CP upgrade.
Veangeance and Hellfire seems fantastic
Vengeance makes a normal bolter oneshot a space marine and hellfire round is a straight up 15% increase in your killing power
What about kraken, aren't those good too? Like, extra range and penetration sound really good
Id see it as a rapid fire range extender
Because, with bolter mastery thats ×4 shots with -2 ap
I dont play KT but I assume an eliminator with camo cloack at cover has a 1+ save
So yeah its cancer to move
For sure. Cover ruling is really specific in KT. More benefit than it is in other iterations.
On the tabletop its usually just a +1 to save or -1 to hit depending of the terrain
Glad i could help you Jambo
I mean, Heavy intercessor in KT is a no brainer
T5 / 3 wounds and heavy bolter weapons
Saltie's Morning Star for AA. 🙂
Flanged maces are far prettier than spiked ones imo
Honestly they should add bone breaking sounds when you kill something with a blunt weapon
That would make it way more satisfying
ok
I mean
Oof
There
19th century repro but still..
Oh didn't mean to criticise your work btw
You did a great job
Thanks.
Man that thing looks painful af
It should be.
Morning star go bonk
Yeah maces in general were meant to bypass armor by maximum bonk and thus applying concussions
Yeah, I love it
Flanged I think were more effective cutting the armor on top of the concussive force.
Vs. spiked which were meant to just pock mark the armor and the wearer with flesh wounds on top of the concussive force.
Both had their use.
But flanged legit would split the armor vs. putting holes in it.
They wouldn't cut, maybe dent a little more but the flanges were to get a better "grip" when hitting the armor to prevent it from glancing off and loosing most of its momentum
Its hard to impossible to punch holes in breastplates, depending on the quality
Even guns didn't penetrate at first when they came up
Flanged maces would punch in or grip
like a uh
War hammer and mace combined
if you manage to slam a tip into the armor instead of 2 at the same time, the force that is used to punch in is greatly enhanced due to small-tip focus
It would be possible on lower end plate breastplates
But honestly even if that would happen you wouldn't get deep enought to hurt/kill anybody just by hitting them with the spike
slap their heads
sides or back
or yknow
be chad and open their visor before poking their eyes out
Or just open their visor and not poke their eyes out
Instead capture them and ransom them
Way more effective
For you
Damn :(
your chaos marines are nothing in the face of MURDER PISTOL
Time to not play the tabletop for another 5 years wheeeze
tis just a relic
nightmare fuel?
