40k-minis-and-armies

[edgy cipher]

Baby carriers are stupid, atleast the ones that expose the user

Which is like all of em

[lapis tundra]

Thats an ifv

How is it stupid

[edgy cipher]

I mean the 40k ones

[lapis tundra]

Oh fair

[edgy cipher]

Keep your tanks in your history chat

[lapis tundra]

😔

[rose sluice]

[hoary ermine]

its not a baby carrier model

its literally a step-in suit

look at the fucking art jezus people

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/329719332517052426/886956506120077322/klTFnFbkQMyc0Gdh.png

[edgy cipher]

Looks a bit schtewpid init

[hoary ermine]

so do you but we dont mention that

[hoary ermine]

Nah but the suit does fit the vansaar style very well

[hoary ermine]

yes cherrypick the one part that suits what youre looking for

[edgy cipher]

Still less so than your unfinished pfp

[hoary ermine]

hes carrying the suit, not the other way around, Dil

[crisp forge]

thats literally what every other 40k babycarrier suit does too

[hoary ermine]

No?

[crisp forge]

sigh

[hoary ermine]

The others sit in their suit

hes wearing the legs himself

like, inside of the legs

the others are in their driver chair

this is literally a good step away from the shitty baby carrier design and yet you people find a way to whine about it

im genuinely surprised by this fandom sometimes

[lapis tundra]

Damn

[crisp forge]

What whining

its just a joke

you act like i called the mini a plastic abomination or something

[sour hill]

Ugh. I hate this model just because Elyksis likes it.

😔

[crisp forge]

😔

[hasty sorrel]

the art looks almost okay

[hoary ermine]

you think youre the first one to say haha babycarrier?

[crisp forge]

No?

[hasty sorrel]

the actual model is a babycarrier with extra steps

[hoary ermine]

stop perpeptuating those jokes then

[crisp forge]

Chill man lmao

[hoary ermine]

its tiring

[thorny totem]

This suit is very similar to the SOB one no?

[hoary ermine]

the krieg jokes arent getting a pass, so these arent either

[hasty sorrel]

very spike

[thorny totem]

This one

[hasty sorrel]

similair to the SOB and the grey knight one

[hoary ermine]

Not so much the GK one considering, AGAIN, thats carrying the user on a platform seat

[thorny totem]

It’s less like a mech and more just an Exosuit

[hoary ermine]

definitely exosuit

its also why people keep comparing the tau to the fucking vansaar STC

[thorny totem]

I also like that it actually protects the pilot if it’s in a full combat load out

[hoary ermine]

well

[thorny totem]

With the spider eyes

[hoary ermine]

necromunda has heavy WIZZYWYG

[hasty sorrel]

i just dont get GWs obssession with roll cage baby carrier design

[hoary ermine]

WYSSYWIG*

what you see is what you get

[lapis tundra]

I dig the armored version of the new baby carrier

[hoary ermine]

im gonna break some fucking legs soon

[thorny totem]

The this?

[lapis tundra]

Yee dis

[hoary ermine]

Yeah thats the armored version

[thorny totem]

Me too

[hoary ermine]

So FYI

[thorny totem]

That’s what I’m sayin

[lapis tundra]

Especially the face

[hoary ermine]

everything in necromunda has reason

[rose sluice]

I prefer grabbo hands to the weapon ones

[hoary ermine]

for example

you can attach gear to a model to show they have a radar unit

or a comms scrambler etc

[crisp forge]

[lapis tundra]

Could prolly remove the dudes arms and 100% greenstuff a robot

[hoary ermine]

if they dont have that model on them

MANY players ignore you saying they have it

So that plate can very well be fucking rule-based ghear

like let me show you what i did for the vansaar players

TO UNDERSTAND THE FUCKING SPRUE WE GOT

[thorny totem]

The suit is for lifting cargo and doubling as a combat “vehicle” right? I don’t know much about Necromunda

[hoary ermine]

THIS WAS MADE

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/329719332517052426/886957545539919882/Van_Saar_Sprew.jpg

IN ALL ITS GLORY

we had to because nobody had a clue how the fuck the guns worked

[thorny totem]

What guns

[hoary ermine]

okay so if you take a pistol grip and a rifle front, youve got a lascarbine

[lapis tundra]

Gw 3d printing, luv it

[rose sluice]

I’d say prolly more hauler/work with retrofitted combat

[hoary ermine]

But if you take a plasma front and a rifle grip

you get a plasma gun

[hasty sorrel]

like

what is with the rollbar spam

https://www.games-workshop.com/resources/catalog/product/600x620/99120101264_SMPrimarisInvictusTacticalWarsuit01.jpg

[thorny totem]

I was gonna say

[hasty sorrel]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/735941248036241489/887063940868227092/unknown.png

[thorny totem]

The invictor warsuit is so bad compared to how this one is setup

[hoary ermine]

And for your info on the arachni rig, its a combat suit first and foremost meant to scale the unwieldy terrain of the underhive

[lapis tundra]

Especially the one on his gun

[hasty sorrel]

like

whats the point

is it competetive baby carrier racing

[hoary ermine]

The suit was mainly made to fight against the goliath brutes

the chem stimmers

[hasty sorrel]

so they need the bars to proctect them in the case of rolling

[hoary ermine]

Hence why it has, beyond the spider theme, 8 limbs

2 legs and 6 arms, 2 parry arms and 4 weaponized arms

with 2 integrated weapons on the frame

[thorny totem]

I see

Interesting

[hoary ermine]

a rad plate, assumedly to irradiate the enemy and shred your own organs less so

[rose sluice]

Fuck i hope it isn’t forge world

[hoary ermine]

its not

all neccy munda brutes are plastic

[thorny totem]

I thought it was just to protect the… Van Saar I think, to protect their cargo, bases, and to help lift stuff

And then they made modules to change the arms and legs and stuff into weapons

[hoary ermine]

Sort of

So, vansaar have recently dimmed down the rad output of their gear to minimal levels

[lapis tundra]

Nah gw 3d prints their stuff before making moulds, you can observe that on like 99% of all eavy metal minis

[thorny totem]

Most of my knowledge is Tyranids so pls forgive any gaps in my knowledge yes-yes

[hoary ermine]

theyll still eventually suffer some organ issues, but mostly nowadays they havent gotten any issues with it anymore

but the suit specifically was supposed to defend them from the radiation they had when they were inside the STC chamber

[lapis tundra]

Tfw when even orks are more practical than you

[hoary ermine]

which btw is now suspended in an antigrav field above magma beam

[rose sluice]

You know damn well that stock isn’t getting used

[hoary ermine]

so the arachni rig is used to either; climb in and out of this fucking STC chamber, or they use grav boards

and the rig is also used as their counter to the brutes

beyond, building and traversing

[thorny totem]

My brain is a cacophony of Tyranids squabbling around with interspersed homebrew Astartes and a single custodian, watching the chaos

And then the Tau from my Killteam vibing in the corner playing cards

Or some equivalent game

[lapis tundra]

Yee but at least it makes sense, unlike primaris trash

[sour hill]

Every arm of the Imperium gets a baby carrier.🌝

[hoary ermine]

okay let me show you this fucking trainwreck of a kit @thorny totem

[thorny totem]

Okay

Share away

[rose sluice]

I’d argue not really if they’re never going to use it but i see your point

[lapis tundra]

Oh no that means.. imperial knight babycarrier next 👀

[hoary ermine]

again we had to make this guide for newcomers to the vansaar side of necromunda to understand how the guns are put together

[lapis tundra]

God gw 100% already has plans for that

[hoary ermine]

rifle stock

with laspistol front

= lascarbine

BUT

Pistol stock with lasrifle front, is also lascarbine

[lapis tundra]

Fair

[thorny totem]

Huh…

[hasty sorrel]

never thought i'd see the day

[thorny totem]

That sounds needlessly annoying

[hoary ermine]

rifle stock with rifle front = las rifle

well it makes sense

if ytou see the actual combinations you have in a kit like this and them wanting to keep it to 2 sprues for 10 gangers

it starts making miore logic than it should

[lapis tundra]

Safety glove for when the flamer gets too hot

[thorny totem]

Poor guy

He didn’t get his gloves in green

[hoary ermine]

so if i take a pistol stock and a rifle front i also get a sub carbine

and a sub carbine is a high-firepower, low-range carbine

but specifically the las variant

[rose sluice]

Other hand is horrifically burned however

[thorny totem]

There sure are a lotta Orks that could be used to make an “Orks Team Fortress 2” Killteam

[hoary ermine]

more room for da meky 'and

[thorny totem]

I may try and do that anyways

[hoary ermine]

this is the worst thing about the vansaar kit btw

[edgy cipher]

Meanwhile primaris

[lapis tundra]

Well lets not talk about that 🙃

[hoary ermine]

we had to identify this all without rules

because the vansaar rule book was delayed for a month

[lapis tundra]

"Hey lets wear robes when dealing with fire"

[edgy cipher]

Look at his hand placement

[rose sluice]

I like how that’s the calmest looking primaris thing ever

[lapis tundra]

Also tactical knifes in case you run out of knifes i guess? Ok i think the glove and the folding stock were the only 2 smart ork inventions so far

[thorny totem]

Slight lean back to the posture, cool and collected with the flamer

[hoary ermine]

thats the glue line

good luck getting it on straight without fucking it up a few times

[rose sluice]

Watched rambo or something

[lapis tundra]

I still adore this lad tho

Especially the sledgehammer

[edgy cipher]

power ram

[lapis tundra]

Unsatisfying amount of ork butt tho

[crisp forge]

I also respect the fact that some of the ork kommandos are literally modelled after british commandos lol

[rose sluice]

Claw boy is my fave

[lapis tundra]

Close 2nd for me

[rose sluice]

Hate is stupid hat tho

[crisp forge]

dont disrespect the beanie

[rose sluice]

Gave mine the gasmask

Not da beenie

[lapis tundra]

Luv the beanie

[rose sluice]

The military cap

[edgy cipher]

A bit rewd innit Dila

[rare solstice]

need to get into mine and work out what bitz I can fold into a second squad

[crisp forge]

:I

[lapis tundra]

Also orks canonically neither got buttholes nor genitalia

I’m slightly intimidated with the amount of options for that box though

[hoary ermine]

That booty is tiny

get this man an ass

Stat.

[lapis tundra]

Old sculpt

[hoary ermine]

GREENSTUFF HIM AN ASS THEN

[rose sluice]

Is that wurzag?

Da great green prophet

Lovable oaf

[lapis tundra]

Thats him indeed

https://www.games-workshop.com/de-DE/Wardokk

[rose sluice]

No it aint

Grrr

[lapis tundra]

Oof

Also return to proper ork butt gw

[rose sluice]

No

[lapis tundra]

I beg you

[rose sluice]

Please don’t

[crisp forge]

gonna need a good spine squig to fix that

[rose sluice]

Kick his arse

Realign his tailbone

[lapis tundra]

How is he not falling over

[hasty sorrel]

recoil

[lapis tundra]

Ah right

[rose sluice]

Glorious

[crisp forge]

owned

[hasty sorrel]

also counter weight of the big ammo pack

[rose sluice]

Orks 1 liberals 0

[edgy cipher]

His dumptruck helps him

[hasty sorrel]

orks would be republicans wouldnt they

[lapis tundra]

Oh god lmfao

[rose sluice]

Tories yes

[lapis tundra]

Looks like a centaur missing its front legs

[rose sluice]

You wanted this

You requested the return of this

Suffer the consequences

[crisp forge]

bruh

i can just hear Taylor Swift's Booty song over all these images

[lapis tundra]

Orks fix they posture when they get older, interresting

[crisp forge]

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

but alos Beer Gut™️

[lapis tundra]

Luv him

[rose sluice]

Which one help

[lapis tundra]

I went for left guy

[hoary ermine]

@rose sluice killteam

[rose sluice]

Yes

[hoary ermine]

okay watch this

[rose sluice]

It is

[hoary ermine]

Give him the lasgun

but

[lapis tundra]

Also last one for today, goddamn it gw

[hoary ermine]

model him with the backpack and the demo kit on the base

now you have both

and you can choose whenever you play another game

[rose sluice]

Hm

You make a point

I’m thinking more for the build

I don’t want to encounter people like that

[lapis tundra]

Or go the other way around and make demolition dude and put a scope on his backpack rifle

Seems way easier

[rose sluice]

I do kinda want to give them all standard rifles but that’s boring

Skip him for now

[lapis tundra]

I just went for the killteam on gw website

[rose sluice]

I hate how the demo guy sits tbh

Looks like he’s pulling a zweihander out his ass

[lapis tundra]

😳

No zweihänder 😔

[rose sluice]

Sad

He can’t take full advantage of the poise break damage

[lapis tundra]

Also scope wont work :(

[rose sluice]

I really hate dynamic poses i think

[lapis tundra]

Same

[hoary ermine]

id prefer if GW started working with hidden balljoints but

thats sadly not doable with TTM's

[rose sluice]

Wish they were all just standing or in a walk

[lapis tundra]

Or aiming

[rose sluice]

Yeah

[lapis tundra]

Aiming ones are always my favourites

[rose sluice]

Ideal poses

Like

[lapis tundra]

Those are neat too

[rose sluice]

They’re doing something

But aren’t caught in a stasis field mid summersault or something

[lapis tundra]

https://www.games-workshop.com/resources/catalog/product/920x950/99070101045_SMPrimarisLieutenantinPhobosArmour01.jpg

Choke choke

[rose sluice]

Yeah literally

For basic infantry

[lapis tundra]

Also those skull masks are fucking cringe

[rose sluice]

Standard poses

Eh

They’re better when they’re full helmets

[lapis tundra]

"look how badass i am, i got a skullface mask"

"U kno cuz skeleton = death, we are quite deadly" Pukes

[rose sluice]

Imperium is mostly skull iconography

[lapis tundra]

https://www.games-workshop.com/resources/catalog/product/920x950/99070109003_DeathwatchWatchmaster01.jpg

I dig this guys pose

Way better than these:

https://www.games-workshop.com/resources/catalog/product/920x950/99120102073_DeathshroudBodyguard01.jpg

Especially the dude in the front

https://www.games-workshop.com/resources/catalog/product/920x950/99810104007_StrikingScorpionsNEW_01.jpg

NEW STRIKIN SCORPIONS HWEN GW

Whats with this guys pose, its extremely ugly, i cant tell why

[edgy cipher]

Very rigid

[sour hill]

Legit I still think those models hold up, BUT. They do need to update them all.

[lapis tundra]

2 dudes in the back look perfect, front dude ruins the entire kit, hope there are less stupid options for him

[lapis tundra]

Yee they do still look great but i want an update badly

[sour hill]

There's way less shitty options for him.

For the Elims.

[lapis tundra]

Thank god

Removing the scope looks so fucking stupid

[sour hill]

Yeah. Mines the pistol wielding dude, I believe.

[rose sluice]

eh their fine aswell to me

they're like

elites

idk

can give them a pass

[lapis tundra]

Neat

[lapis tundra]

Back 2 dudes yes, front dude not so imo

Also:

There

Instructions from the interwebs, can give him binoculars apparently 😳

[sour hill]

Yee!

[lapis tundra]

Damn gw removed like 99% of their basing stuff from the webstore, the static grass was gone for quite some time now but now they dont even sell grass tufts anymore

[median pumice]

I use gamergrass. It sounds like a weed thing tbh, but it's pretty good. I used it for my realm lords.

They even go so far to ask you to check your friendly local game store to see if they carry it before ordering from their site.

[sour hill]

LMFAO

I'd like to smoke some gamergrass. 😎

[median pumice]

Ayyyyy

[quaint halo]

Testing out a few paint techniques

[sour hill]

Oooo. Share share! What's the techniques you're trying?

[quaint halo]

Leadbelcher base with Talassar Blue Contrast

From left to right

Control nothing done beforehand

Washed with nuln oil first

Edge highlights before contrast

[sour hill]

I think I dig the Nuln first, but I'm insanely biased. I like gritty, dirty figures a lot.

[quaint halo]

Yeah I may do the nuln then do the edge highlights

That way all the contrast does is color it

[sour hill]

Yeah. My contast layer basically sets the main tone and does some light shading/highlighting ahead of time.

[summer pawn]

I suffer in War Thunder...

[quaint halo]

Yeah I'm definitely going to try this and make my Dominion Stormcast of the Celestial Knights Stormhost

[sour hill]

💖

Can't wait to see!

[median pumice]

The metallic blue is sliiick

[median pumice]

Bruh you just sold me on what to do for my custodes jetbikes. I was gonna do like a dredd lawgiver kinda color and that blue is perfect

[twilit cliff]

Some tools for kitbashing I ordered are being delivered today

I can practically guarantee theyll ring my doorbell when im having a noon nap

[hoary ermine]

Perfect

[sour hill]

LOL

[twilit cliff]

update

the guy did bring it during my nap

but didnt ring the bell and just dropped it in my mailbox

it barely fit in too lol

what a guy

[vivid rune]

Anyone want some Daughters or Khaine models?

[twilit cliff]

Are those the snakey ladies?

[vivid rune]

@twilit cliff yes

[twilit cliff]

neat, but i'll pass since im from europe and postage is probably through the roof

[median pumice]

Mmm tempted. I was gonna do some non helmeted head swaps for some of my realm lords but I'm unsure how they'd fit. Can you post pictures of the minis @vivid rune ?

[vivid rune]

@median pumice

Youre getting 11 models

Look i need to get rid of these!

Somebody please!

[twilit cliff]

why whats wrong with em 👀

stolen?

[vivid rune]

No just trying to get rid of my overstock

[rose sluice]

god i'm tempted

but like et

shipping will be evil

[median pumice]

I think I'm gonna have to pass puddles. :( I'm sorry

[vivid rune]

Thats okay

[rose sluice]

oh shit you've got melusi aswell?

very nice

[vivid rune]

Im giving out for free, just have to pay for shipping

[rose sluice]

know how much it would be?

might have to

haha

can't pass up lamias

[vivid rune]

No clue, if youre US itd be like 15 bucks max for a flatrate box

[rose sluice]

na

scotland

where could i even check that?

[twilit cliff]

uhh you cant

you can do like

[rose sluice]

might end up being more than a box of them

[twilit cliff]

but thats no real indication

[rose sluice]

yeah

hrm

[twilit cliff]

tbf puddles is giving them away and we shouldnt be like

you know

being difficult

[vivid rune]

Biting? Yay or nay?

[twilit cliff]

i'm not, i thought i maybe might turn them into like daemonettes for 40k but i honestly have no idea where to start

[lapis tundra]

You got any spare 40k stuff puddles 👀

[vivid rune]

I got a box of chaos space marines

[lapis tundra]

Oh i already got enought of em 😔

But thx anyway

U dont got any primaris stuff i could outsource for bits tho no?

[twilit cliff]

i could use some chaos marines 👀

[lapis tundra]

Based

[rose sluice]

potentially

[vivid rune]

My wife is building the HQ lmao

[rose sluice]

not trying to be difficult sorry

[tiny cairn]

If it's not Ork or guard it ends up as basing for me, and even some of my guard ends up as basing too

[twilit cliff]

i got this cadian foot you can have

[vivid rune]

@rose sluice nah youre okay, just let me know if you do

[rose sluice]

i think i do

[lapis tundra]

I bought like 20 cadian legs for my renegade militia

[twilit cliff]

no i mean

just the foot

[lapis tundra]

Huh

Where did the legs go 👀

Btw can anybody recommend good static grass or something? Since gw stopped producing their stuff ill better go for some 3rd party before 90% of my army is gw grass and i run out of it

[vivid rune]

Army painter@lapis tundra

[twilit cliff]

He was maimed in a tragic green stuff accident

[rose sluice]

eat it

[twilit cliff]

And then i was fucking around a bit

[lapis tundra]

Oh nooo :O

[lapis tundra]

Anything specific you can recommend from them? I only heard good things about em so far, seems to be quality stuff

[twilit cliff]

this was before i discovered vaseline

[tiny cairn]

Gamer grass I haven't used it but yesimokay swears by it

[lapis tundra]

Yo @median pumice

[dusk osprey]

“Gamer grass” sounds like another name for pot

[tiny cairn]

Here

[twilit cliff]

im gonna start calling it gamer grass now

[lapis tundra]

[lapis tundra]

Oh neat

You light up the mini if you are feeling yourself

FEEEEET

[lapis tundra]

CLAWS

[rose sluice]

FEEEET

[summer pawn]

Ohno

[crisp forge]

Get em lads

[rose sluice]

i like the Cthulhu face

[elfin yew]

Ymgarl time

[twilit cliff]

why are genestealers called genestealers

and not genethieves?

[elfin yew]

Genesharers rlly

[crisp forge]

it sounds more marketable

[elfin yew]

Is more accurate

[twilit cliff]

you dont say like

there was a stealer in the house last night

[crisp forge]

Some do

👀

[twilit cliff]

unless theres something wrong with you*

[rose sluice]

stolenerer

[summer pawn]

I dont speak about, cuz i killed it

[median pumice]

https://www.gamersgrass.com/

Ahh my bad. Its gamers grass. Still sounds like a weed thing

[twilit cliff]

[elfin yew]

"Touch grass"

The grass:

[lapis tundra]

In german genestealers are literally just called symbionts

[crisp forge]

LMAO

[lapis tundra]

Why "my bad" 👀 you didnt do anything wrong no?

[median pumice]

I basically used the green grass one and the wildflower set. I finished off the 6mm green grass ser and am about half way through the wildflowers set for the gamer grass.

I just use some stirland mud then load up the tufts.

[elfin yew]

Thats probs more accurate to the rel word

[lapis tundra]

Also thx for the link

[crisp forge]

in turkish its "soy hırsızı" which is literally Bloodline Thief

[twilit cliff]

oh no my bloodline

[rose sluice]

that's badass

[lapis tundra]

Dayum

[rose sluice]

sounds like a 1800's criminal that kills off royalty

[lapis tundra]

Thats sick

[median pumice]

Sounds like a metal band

[elfin yew]

Truly the term should be Genegifter

[lapis tundra]

Why does literally any other language have a better name for them lmao

[rose sluice]

marketability

[twilit cliff]

geneborrowers with actually giving backers

[rose sluice]

genereturners

[median pumice]

Geneneveraborrowerorlenderbe

[elfin yew]

Tbf it is mostly nid dna being given to humans rather than the opposite

So genegifters

[twilit cliff]

genemuggers

[crisp forge]

No no thats the trademarked term the cult uses

[median pumice]

... lo.... loadgivers.

LMAO

even im not that lowly

mostly

[median pumice]

Best part is they're on like... little sticky plastic adhesive? So you can cut them to taste.

[lapis tundra]

Neat

[median pumice]

And just attach them with superglue

Be sure to use tweezers though

[lapis tundra]

Yeah i have bad experience with superglue, they tend to just coloer everything nearby white for some reason, ill prolly go for pva glue

Cant type already, damn

[median pumice]

Oh dude if you got a chance try the gel super glue from loctite

This stuff works great, isnt nearly as rinny as normal super glue and works fine with most superglue accelerants

Just be sure of where you put it as it's a bear to undo stuff

[lapis tundra]

Will def try, gw doesnt sell superglue too anymore, seems like they slowly only focus on minis

[median pumice]

Theres probabaly like a supply chain reason or something. But yeah that glue I use on like resin and metal minis

Used it to put this yadu trooper from infinity together and attaches it to this resin base

[lapis tundra]

Nah they only sell the thin plastic glue, nothing else is listed on their webstore

[median pumice]

Hmmm if anything for plastic glue, the tamiya thin plastic glue works wonders. Though I'd use it in a well ventilated place

[lapis tundra]

I think ill just stick to pva glue, never had bad experience with it

(Only for basing stuff ofc)

(Dont glue minis with pva glue please)

Bruh just realized that gw doesnt sell their pva glue anymore too

FFS

[rose sluice]

drank it all soz

[median pumice]

Bought these in 2018 and they're only just running out.

[lapis tundra]

Keep producing that shit gw, there are enought idiots like me who buy ur glue and basing stuff >:c

[median pumice]

But they do melt the glue together so.... dry fit first lol

[rose sluice]

tbf i'd love to have a brush applicator

[median pumice]

And yeah the brush applicator is boss

[lapis tundra]

Same

[median pumice]

The unthinned one has a big brush and thinnest glue has like a very small fine tip. Almost like a 00 brush

I recomend them highly for plastic kits

But not for sub assembly minis

Because they will eat the paint lmao

Anyway gotta get ready for work. You all have a good one and happy modeling!

[lapis tundra]

Thx, a nice workday to you!

[twilit cliff]

Wait

Is that plastic glue with a brish?

Brush

[lapis tundra]

Yes

Its glorious

[twilit cliff]

hmmm

is there also a superglue version?

[twilit cliff]

oh question

[lapis tundra]

Oh nah there aint

[twilit cliff]

i was looking for magnets earlier this week to magnetize some models

and awh, too bad

[lapis tundra]

Superglue would fuck up the brush

[twilit cliff]

there were magnet tape strips

why would you drill and glue in actual magnets when you can just slap on some magnet tape?

[lapis tundra]

Neat idea tbh

[twilit cliff]

im gonna need someone to tell me it's a stupid idea

[misty pollen]

nintendo is going all in with this metroid

https://metroid.nintendo.com/

love it

im not even a Nintendo consumer

[edgy cipher]

Well they realised (finally) that Metroid had potential on today's market and are trying to bring it up to light since it wasn't THAT well known outside the eponymous metroidvania genre

[median pumice]

Nope, that is TWO plastic glues with brushed. Lmao. But yeah Tamiya glue is great. Just.... be in a well ventilated area. No joke. Its strong lol

[misty pollen]

i hope it sells well even tho i cannot afford it

its up to the 1st world people

[edgy cipher]

Mostly up to the japanese since Nintendo's real impression of : "that game sold well" is the number of japanese sales in the first week of the release

[misty pollen]

yeah, as 1st world as you can get

still gonna play it tho on my own ways

https://tenor.com/view/hehe-pirate-funny-laugh-gif-10011178

[edgy cipher]

Oh no that's mostly because of Japon's more nation oriented sales and decision making

[sour hill]

I'll be buying it, don't you worry.

Just making sure not to spoil anything.

[misty pollen]

yeah but still, japan is 1st world as you can get

[rose sluice]

don't know if anyone posted this yet

[median pumice]

I wanna say... age of sigmar, forces of destruction, and an undead.

[sour hill]

Sick AF sword.

I see a swoop of hair and an ear.

[vale sleet]

God, i dont think i have the brain to play 40k at all

[vivid rune]

Umbraneth?

Maybe malaketh?

[elfin yew]

Pld

Pls

Yed

[median pumice]

God i just thought: what if they bring back alith anar

[vivid rune]

Who?

Is that the high elf who lives on dark elf land just to fuck with them?

[dusk hill]

yee

angry vengeance legolas who lives in the northern area of ulthuan that's badly devastated cus of dark elves

[hasty sorrel]

The boys for the Only War campaign i'm running finalized their colour scheme

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/636580754859491359/887497659592638464/Quinn_1.png

[sour hill]

They look incredible, dude.

Love this scheme!

[hasty sorrel]

The psycher is having to use the older token gen

but is rocking it as well

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/636580754859491359/887500310967353374/token.png

[sour hill]

I love the like...slashes of grey in the red.

Solid look.

[hasty sorrel]

ye they've come up with a fantastic design

looking forward to the first session now

[quaint star]

So they're clearly a drop regiment, but what's their story?

Oh also since I really like the website, lemme just post it for everyone else

http://test.hbtokenbuilder.ru/editor/?Future

[edgy cipher]

We're from a agri-world that specialized in growing recaf. This planet was owned by a rogue traitor that may have kickstarted a Black Crusade which doomed the planet.

[median pumice]

My mind immediately wondered if the name of the planet was Fol-Gers. 😆

[edgy cipher]

Sadly I wasnt a player during that campaign but ask Skelly and he'll tell you the whole thing. In short our little merry band is from a planet that doesnt exist anymore.

[quaint star]

oh, so you're a regiment from a planetary coffee plantation. That's actually really neat!

[edgy cipher]

In short, we are a group of snipers that are parachuted on a tau planet, thanks to our farmer background we can easily live off the earth and outrange the taus

[quaint star]

oh shit cool. SAS coffee farmers

[edgy cipher]

We also have heavy ordonance in the form of a man portable lasscanon and drop scout sentinel

Only War is neat so far

[quaint star]

Well good luck on surviving. Remember the merits of suppressing fire

[edgy cipher]

We are all sneaky beaky to an extend, even the sentinel so this is only if things go south

Which they will of course

[quaint star]

That's the proper guardsman spirit!

[plush swift]

""True Son Marine" looking to carry out the emperor's true will one free of the perversion of the crusade"

Idk if it's lore accurate and idc

[twilit cliff]

oh nice job i like it

Why not?

[plush swift]

Cuz it's cool and i like bending lore and i like pissing off lore sticklers even more

[twilit cliff]

Oh with the gsc stuff

I dunno i just like seeing kitbashes

Maybe its a trophy

[dusk hill]

he found an astartes helmet and he stans marines aggressively

he calls everyone battle brother and they go along as to not hurt his feelings

[twilit cliff]

Or that

Is the green stuff robe to hide that the marine torso doesnt fit on the gsc legs

Maybe he could use like q backpack of some sort

Not necessarily a power pack

[plush swift]

My headcanon is that he's not even a genetic marine he just kills unjust marines and strips them of their armor

[quaint halo]

Oh I know my Cthulhu Genestealer Patriarch will piss them off too

[proper canopy]

Yeah, but, the rule of cool, is the top priority.

[twilit cliff]

oh very cool

werent there chthulu looking nids in lore?

[proper canopy]

the ygmarl genestealers, or however it was spelt.

they just didn't have wings.

[twilit cliff]

ahhh

who cares right

[quaint halo]

I also deviated on the skin tone for my Infantry

[twilit cliff]

Ohhh pics?

[quaint halo]

The Aberants are more close to Deep Ones

One sec

[twilit cliff]

i dont see anything wrong with that

Gsc dont have do be purplish right

I love the colors on their uh

Armor?

[quaint halo]

Lol

[twilit cliff]

The green and red armor work well with the skintone

Which i wouldnt have expected if i was just told

[quaint halo]

The red is actually Screamer pink

So a more violet tone works better

[proper canopy]

I can only imagine them as teenage mutant ninja turtle villains now.

[twilit cliff]

Yeah

I like them a lot

[proper canopy]

Yeah, it's a pretty awesome scheme.

[twilit cliff]

Now i want gsc with turtleshells

[quaint halo]

Greenstuff those and bandanas

[twilit cliff]

yeah

yeahhhhh

man that'd be so cool as just four one off models

and then just get an old skaven as master splinter

just say theyre abhumans or sth

and they fight hive city crime

so cool

[quaint halo]

Go go my amphibian sons and fight-smash crime in underhive...

[twilit cliff]

im kinda wanna do this but is need to figure out how to give the genaetealers nunchucks and stuff

[proper canopy]

you mean, it's not just two sticks of dynamite with the fuse holding them together?

[twilit cliff]

great input

what about he uh

those shqnks the red one hqs

has

[crisp forge]

Teenage Mutant ~~Ninja ~~ Hero Turtles? 👀

[twilit cliff]

im gonna kitbash them

AT SOME POINT

[rose sluice]

Liddle cutie

[dusk hill]

babi

[twilit cliff]

neat

[dusk hill]

time to kill him for some glowing rocks

[crisp forge]

LOOT BUG

no wait

[rose sluice]

Titanite lizard

FAKE FAN

[crisp forge]

AAa-

[twilit cliff]

oh that's from dark souls?

i had to look that up, never played

i thought it was a baby tmnt

[edgy cipher]

Get lizarded

[rose sluice]

Babe alert

[tiny cairn]

Boutta roll off the side of this cliff

[rose sluice]

yeah 😔

[dusk hill]

large woman

her being murderous only adds on benefits

[rose sluice]

I forgot how built she is

[rose sluice]

need some colour opinions if anyone is inclined

[dusk hill]

i am colourblind but my wisdom evens it out

go ahead

[rose sluice]

Painting the ork kommandos

and going along the sas theme

i decided to paint them like the rainbow six guys

they're blue and black

their blue isn't that exaggerated so idk if i should my blue exaggerated or keep it muted

[dusk hill]

i'd keep it p muted, making it super vivid risks just making them look clowny imo. messes up the like, SWAT-y vibes

there's plenty orky stuff in those models without having to include bright colours anyways

[rose sluice]

that's what i was thinking

but i wasn't sure if i should make it bright just cause their orks

So i was thinking the grey/blue trousers and black gillet

Was going to make the claw red just for a bit of variety

And probably make the straps green

But probs an obnoxious green and then give it a wash

[dusk hill]

nods

[rose sluice]

we'll see how it looks

thank you very much!

[dusk hill]

good luck!

[rose sluice]

Him so far

Am liking the blue

[sour hill]

The grime process has begun.

I need to pick up purple paint still for the "necklace" on the front and still need to hit a few areas with brown/green.

Also gonna try checkerboard somewhere.

And then it's a waiting game for the rust paint to really give him character.

[elfin yew]

Just noticed this art has the Old World logo on it instead of the TWW3 one

Pls yes

Give me a reason to play OW

[rose sluice]

reckon it will be a forge world thing then?

[elfin yew]

Probably

I'm figuring OW will be akin to 30k

[rose sluice]

i'm sceptical about it now

could be wishful thinking

[lapis tundra]

Cathay minis i can use for bits 😳

[rose sluice]

Tbf if they have one of those sentinel models it is getting acquired isntantly

[lapis tundra]

Ur face ok atlas? Looks a little dry to me

[rose sluice]

i'm hollow

[lapis tundra]

Can we fix it or does it heal itself over time?

[vivid rune]

Yea once im done with you

[lapis tundra]

😳

[vivid rune]

[lapis tundra]

You already got a partner and child puddles, dont betray em ples

[rose sluice]

😳

[vivid rune]

Nono its okay

[rose sluice]

i'm a target after the black market transaction

[vivid rune]

I only publically sexually harrass people who could probably kill me in less than 5 seconds

[rose sluice]

giving me alot of credit there

[vivid rune]

Lmao

[lapis tundra]

😳

[rose sluice]

flattered though

[rose sluice]

@crisp forge

[crisp forge]

🙏

Good luck on your journey Atlas

[rose sluice]

good lord

[crisp forge]

wipe that dust

[rose sluice]

starting again

fuck it

[sour hill]

@twilit cliff per your request sir.

I did my best to freehand some Goff checkerboard.

[twilit cliff]

ah yeah nice

[sour hill]

I loved the idea of giving him that contrasting hood with his teeth too.

[twilit cliff]

how long did that take you?

yeah it works well

[sour hill]

About 10 minutes tops.

It had a natural curved design to it.

[twilit cliff]

shit well you're way quicker than i am

[sour hill]

So I used a pencil to get a general feel for the space and mark where they should go.

[twilit cliff]

that'd work on a big area like that

[sour hill]

Yeah. Other areas I can't imagine.

I'd just use a decal if it was super tiny.

[untold pier]

ok i just clicked back to this and the color combo made me think u put ghaz in a maid outfit

[twilit cliff]

didnt you say you wanted to do a checker pattern somewhere else too?

[sour hill]

I was thinking the cod piece potentially.

But it's metal right now.

[twilit cliff]

also probably really difficult

[sour hill]

I still need to go buy purple too.

So I can get that tooth necklace thing at the front properly purple.

[twilit cliff]

the gun progressed too?

[sour hill]

Maybe I'll go buy some fun paints.

Yeah. Yellow but properly grimey.

[twilit cliff]

looks good

[twilit cliff]

i was actually thinking he colors bits and bobs on his torso

[sour hill]

Yeah. I'm going to be rusting ALL of the pieces I painted metal.

[twilit cliff]

sorry what i meant to type was he needs color on his torso

[sour hill]

I basically looked at every single piece of armour and if it was technically an "outer shell" piece I did it with my dark gunmetal.

Does he? Should I do checkerboard down there or?

[twilit cliff]

im looking at some reference images and like

some bits need to stand out from the black imo

[sour hill]

Ah. Yeah. The jaw checkerboard is what helps it "pop"

[twilit cliff]

especially youre trying to give him this all ork clans united type of vibe

since youre* im tired

[sour hill]

?

[untold pier]

basically yea

[sour hill]

LMFAO

[untold pier]

just the white base looked like the apron

[sour hill]

For sure. This base is gonna be a nightmare to do, but I'll make her pretty soon.

[twilit cliff]

yeah bases

a while i ago i was complaining i didnt know what to base models with

nothing really gave a vibe i really wanted

[sour hill]

@twilit cliff Hmm. So I think I should hit some purple on the necklace...and now also wondering if I should hit the cod piece with purple.

Or maybe do the necklace as bone coloured.

[twilit cliff]

im thinking i might just go with sector imperialis

purple codpiece would work

[sour hill]

And make the cod piece nice and bright purple.

So instead of metal that I make rusty he's got a big purple cock.

[twilit cliff]

if it were me i'd paint the jaw red but that's personal preference

[sour hill]

Which nobody can see.

[twilit cliff]

i just have a preference for the dow1 campaign orks

[sour hill]

I'm staying away from traditional artwork.

Or trying to at least.

[twilit cliff]

yeah that's fair

i found this bit ive never seen before in my bitsbox

i want to use it for something IG related but i need ideas

it's actually an old space marine torso

has a general kind of vibe to me

[shell yacht]

Do you think Orks color their guns orange so they shoot faster AND hit harder.

?

[untold pier]

the gun is colored with lucky and killy colors, while the bullets are red and yellow

[shell yacht]

I see

[sour hill]

Started to hit the exposed wires with colour now.

[twilit cliff]

oh yeah i like that

[sour hill]

Have to clean up where the colour bled some, but we're getting those details in.

🙏

[tiny cairn]

Be careful, you don't know if those are live wires or not

[sour hill]

@tiny cairn Thank you for looking out for me. 😢 Ghaz just kept telling me to do it "or else"

[tiny cairn]

Damn stay safe partner

[twilit cliff]

and i cut my finger again

[sour hill]

😔

Blood for the blood god at least.

[lapis tundra]

https://youtu.be/nUpfnQrPMZE

😳

Richard gray at it again

[lapis tundra]

Also F

[twilit cliff]

well uh

im trying to build a model with lots of magnetizing options

probably only going to do that once lol

but at least there's blood sweat (and tears) in it

[lapis tundra]

Never tried magnetizing yet

Also what knife do u use?

[twilit cliff]

a couple

i use a boxcutter, a tamiya knife and a fine saw

the saw really helps but it's still a huge bother sawing through three milimeters of plastic in a clean way

but at least it's better than just pushing throuhg with a knife and probably warping the plastic

[lapis tundra]

Ah fair

I only use box cutter

[twilit cliff]

well depends on what youre going right

[lapis tundra]

And files for cleaning up mould lines and gw's drill (tm) to drill gun barrels

[twilit cliff]

im cutting up lots of things so having actually sharp stuff around helps

i would drill gun barrels but i made these las blunderbusses

[lapis tundra]

I think i got a gw saw lying around somewhere too, never found use for it so far tho

[twilit cliff]

it'd have to be a weird shaped hole

[lapis tundra]

Yee fair

[twilit cliff]

i bought this saw with multiple attachments

pretty neat

but usually just use the smallest teeth, not sure if that's smart

im looking to order some custom decals for this guy but im not sure if like

there's websites that do them, but i read you can just printer on transfer paper with a laser printer

one of the printing shops in town must have one right?

[lapis tundra]

Not sure how well thats gonna work, def worth a try tho

[twilit cliff]

i wish i knew the actual rules to this game lol

someone told me that you could give ig a unit in power armor or something?

[sage matrix]

Now I can take proper photos of my models 😄

[sour hill]

@sage matrix He looks great!

[sage matrix]

Now I await my patrol box

Thank you very much BigJambo, that means a lot

[tiny cairn]

Very clean paintjob

[sour hill]

For sure. You should be proud. He'll be an excellent submission.

[twilit cliff]

Looks perfect

[lapis tundra]

Finally got around painting again, did some edge highlighting (might even get a proper pic if i finish him in time, still got a really good camera from school, gonna have to give it back mid next week tho)

Because mobile camera sucks ass

[verbal sapphire]

Crispy highlights my guy

[sour hill]

Oooo. Love the highlights though my dude!

[lapis tundra]

Thx!

Will have almost no school tomorrow so i will def get some more details done

Took this pic of him assembeled a long time ago, hes gonna be some kind of tacticool vox lad

[sour hill]

So fucking dope.

Chaos comms boy.

One of my players is planning to grav chute onto a storm surge and stab it

with a knife

unsure how thats gonna go

[edgy cipher]

You mean 2 roight ?

[hasty sorrel]

[sour hill]

LMFAO

[hasty sorrel]

a fair warning

if anyone tries to melee a battlesuit they will be eating a flamer

[plush swift]

You can’t die to Tau flamers if you already hugged the battlesuit with 20 melta bombs on your back

[hasty sorrel]

your not wrong, but also please stop encouraging then

one of the players already wants to use mortar rounds as thrown weapons as a last ditch defence

we havent even had session 1 yet

[amber panther]

these are small heresy hours, try making a trebuchet for flinging promethium barrels at orcs and then we can talk.

our tech priest was not happy

[proper canopy]

I mean, They count as grenades don't they? Just shoot them. Apply the proper modifiers to hit a small target

[twilit cliff]

goddamn that looks gud

[lapis tundra]

Thx!

[crisp forge]

[rose sluice]

god damn

where'd that leak?

[twilit cliff]

👀

i want all of it what do i do?

[rose sluice]

i think that was rumoured to be the next kill team box

which means

the rest of that leak is probs real

[twilit cliff]

can someone post the leak again?

[rose sluice]

2 secs

[twilit cliff]

ly

[rose sluice]

BT shit is yet to be announced

[twilit cliff]

Hm

Im assuming that BT stuff is true, the orks is true, these sisters will cone first and then the tau in january?

Oh i think uhhhh

[rose sluice]

tau and sisters together

as part of kill team

[twilit cliff]

Valrak made a video on the BT rumor?

[dusk hill]

ngl is it bad that i dont like how the helmets look for the tau

maybe they're just painted differently but idk something looks odd abt them

the whole tau even

[twilit cliff]

They look meatier

[dusk hill]

yeah and they already looked ridiculously meaty

[twilit cliff]

I dont mind it

[dusk hill]

like, they're big af

[rose sluice]

i'd imagine they'll have more build options if the octarius thing is anything to go by

[dusk hill]

even nominally

that said tho, im horny for those new tau guns

[rose sluice]

they look sick as fuck

[twilit cliff]

They look like tgey got more variety

[dusk hill]

these look lowkey raypunk and i adore them

[twilit cliff]

I thought uhhh

Octarius was pretty poor on the orkses part?

[rose sluice]

huh?

[dusk hill]

wdym?

[rose sluice]

in what way?

[tiny cairn]

I wonder if itll be tau or sister terrain

[dusk hill]

The models for them are gorgeous

[twilit cliff]

Something about them@not having all the necessary options

[dusk hill]

hopefully it's ambiguous

[rose sluice]

leak says imperial terrain

[twilit cliff]

I remember some drama abt that

[rose sluice]

that's the boys kit

[dusk hill]

i dont really like super like, specific looking terrain for these boxes

yee the new boyz are the weird ones

[tiny cairn]

the 1st one was ork terrain

[bold copper]

that's the combat patrol box you are thinking of

[twilit cliff]

Same

[dusk hill]

where's the full leak?

and yee that's def for the better, imperial terrain is the best option here imo

[rose sluice]

the new ork box only doesn't have enough guns or melee weapons for a full squad of either

[twilit cliff]

I woulda maybe bought octarius if it wasnt for the ork terrain

[dusk hill]

can use it for basically anything

[twilit cliff]

Yh

[dusk hill]

yeah it's ridiculous

[rose sluice]

#40k-minis-and-armies message

[twilit cliff]

Yh thats what i meant

i think

[dusk hill]

plus they're like, crazy monopose

[twilit cliff]

Yup

[dusk hill]

oh right that from ages ago

[rose sluice]

yer

[twilit cliff]

But im loving these sisters like tbey got some really cool bits

The crown/mitre

the pimp cup

[rose sluice]

they could pass for AoS aswell

not weapon wise
