Thats a lotta points lmap

#

Oh and kroot

edgy cipher
#

Onut gave you stuff ? Nice

dusk hill
#

fuck yeah

void orchid
#

Very nice

untold pier
#

Some inf aswell

edgy cipher
#

Seems like you really needed that moeny to buy those acolytes @elfin yew

untold pier
#

I cant wait to put these together

#

Might go out and get some epoxy tho

#

Do a lil bit of greenstuffing

sour hill
#

Can't wait to see you post them built!

untold pier
#

Yea i might just do the rip and some inf, cause i have ideas for the other suits that require more materials

sour hill
#

🙏

#

Keep us up to date.

untold pier
#

Will do

sour hill
#

Alright. Now we just gotta paint all these Orks.

#

And then I'll build the case/diorama scene.

#

And THEN finish with my BT.

#

🙏

#

I need to find castle bases for the BT as well.

sour hill
#

I also want to get a dope print to frame for the back of my wall.

lapis tundra
# sour hill And THEN finish with my BT.

Your pile of shame is growing, i once thought it is defeatable too but i was proven wrong. No warhammer hobbyist shall ever paint every model in his collection. Its the eternal curse nobody warned you about before joining the hobby. The curse cant be broken

sour hill
#

LMFAO. I am doing very good with my pile of shame!

lapis tundra
sour hill
#

I don't usually let more than a month go before I dig in.

#

So that print above a snowy battlescene below.

#

OR

lapis tundra
#

Legends tell of a buff hobbyist who shall break the curse for all eternity, thus freeing every other hobbyist

sour hill
#

FUCK. It's missing from their website now.

sour hill
#

Just ATTEMPTING to exert self-control.

#

That's the other one.

#

I would put above.

lapis tundra
#

Yeah but jokes aside my backlog is brutal, dont let yours get that bad lmfao

sour hill
#

It's probably still my favourite image. Period.

lapis tundra
sour hill
#

Hell yeah.

#

It's just got such a fucking grim feel to it.

#

Just like a lot of my art/photos I have up around the room.

#

Or used to, at least.

lapis tundra
#

There was another sick one too, lemme find it real quick

sour hill
#

Definitely let me know if you find it.

#

I can order an official print (so it'll be super high-res per scale) and then just frame it myself for cheap.

#

Man. Both are so dope.

#

I love the first one because I think Neophytes are some of my favourite iterations of SMs.

#

The rimless pauldron, the serfdom. Feels very dope old knighthood.

sour hill
#

@lapis tundraDone. Ordered. Terminator boy coming home.

I do wonder if GW will ever release plushes of something that's uh

not a squig

hasty sorrel

if you don't know dw, the books have enough sad that my sad could be anything

but you'll know which sad it is when you get there

You tired of Gaunt books ?

You gonna punch it each time you read an Abnett pun don't lie

visual cliff
#

that one as a plush

dusk hill
#

this krieg meme gets a pass cus it's fairly cute

dusk hill
#

or servo skull, with also a plushy chain so u can hang it off like lights and stuff

crisp forge
#

Skelly mentioned it in off-topic too but

green cave
#

Wait... Men and women? Gamers triggered!!!!111!!!11!!

twilit cliff
#

should i get a box?

#

or are they expected to get replaced by better models?

dusk hill
#

virgin actually giving new sculpts vs chad yeet the metal models

edgy jackal
hasty sorrel
#

those arent new sculpts of Steel legion night

twilit cliff
#

yeah no

#

but i want someone with more knowledge than me to decide for me lul

#

get me some steel legion or nah

crisp forge
#

I dont know why you'd even want to get those models

#

they're old as hell lmao

hasty sorrel
twilit cliff
#

mhm

hasty sorrel
#

cause metal models are

#

i say as someone who bought the final run valhalla models

bold copper
#

i think it would be cool as a piece of history at least

twilit cliff
#

im curious how IG is going to go forward in terms of sculpts

#

im thinking the new krieg are waaay better sculpts than say the current cadians

hasty sorrel
#

we'll either see more krieg esque updates were the side factions get kill teams n stuff (which i'd actually be fine with)

#

or we'll see nothing at all seeing as standard guard are 20 years old and just got extra heads

dusk hill
#

i treasure my metal gandalf the grey

#

The true trauma is big metal models

twilit cliff
#

yeah i think iagree with skele

edgy cipher
#

Current cadian box is from 1996

#

Kriegs are super detailed next to em

#

Plus their equipment also helps,

bold copper
#

they also got an upgrade sprew to kind of sort of update them without a brand new sculpt

hasty sorrel
#

the IG upgrade sprew was some guns and heads

#

overall the quality hasnt changed much

bold copper
#

like i said, kind of sort of update

edgy cipher
#

Mold lines are still shite and lacks details

bold copper
#

not anything major

hasty sorrel
#

but hay, atleast you don't have to pay extra for plasma/melta/sniper/bolter now?

edgy cipher
#

New heads and equipments are pretty ok tho

dusk hill
#

it has aged pretty well as a kit

hasty sorrel
#

kinda ratty

dusk hill
#

largely cus these are just footslogging losers ur gonna be putting on the board in their dozens anyways

hasty sorrel
#

until u have it nxt to the guard kit

#

the krieg kit#

#

and go "oh right ye"

dusk hill
#

yeaahh

#

i imagine the difference becomes pretty explicit rgshd

edgy cipher
#

Want me to post a comparison pic for the laughs ?

dusk hill
#

do it

bold copper
#

i just want to see new stuff

#

i don't really care if it's xenos or imperium or chaos

hasty sorrel
crisp forge
hasty sorrel
#

my (wip) comparison

bold copper
#

i like marines though

#

i just don't want them all the time

hasty sorrel
dusk hill
#

the worst thing for those comparisons is tau

#

just cus their heads are SO goddamn big

#

it looks so janky next to almost any other humanoid sculpt GW has made

#

esp pathfinders

hasty sorrel
#

you ever considered that tau just have big heads

#

big long melons

bold copper
#

i honestly hope all the major marine chapters get a black templars level refresh, after we get more pressing matters done of course

hasty sorrel
#

9e is weird in that it feels like they are updating everything

dusk hill
#

on the one hand yes i should be glad if marine players got nice refreshes

#

on the other hand i care so little about marines that to me nothing might as well have happened at all in that case

bold copper
#

as i said i like marines, but i don't want them all the time so i have a chance to breathe

#

i play ultramarines and orks for god's sake

#

orks refresh was a breath of fresh air

hasty sorrel
#

i think my only issue with the new marine updates has been the conversion of existing firstborn characters to primaris

#

I'm not actually aware of any original primaris characters getting models yet other than maybe 1 of the lieutenants

bold copper
#

that's simply because of money reasons

#

old characters getting updates to their models sells

dusk hill
#

i just treat primaris as new redesigned marines at this point

#

they're not distinct from firstborn they're just the straight replacement GW uses for revamps now

hasty sorrel
#

i would but they don't have tactical marines

#

which are like

#

the best part of marines

edgy cipher
#

Nope because having a unit that does everythinbg is bad for sales Skelly

bold copper
#

the new black templars castellan can be primaris or firstborn. there really isn't much difference between them anymore, if there ever was one

twilit cliff
edgy cipher
#

GW needs to release new op niche space marine units to survive

bold copper
#

i suppose to be honest i actually do like the more specialized marine units

hasty sorrel
#

when i say dumb they are bright red lul

twilit cliff
#

yessss

#

can you compare them all?

hasty sorrel
#

sure

#

a fucking

#

timeline of IG

twilit cliff
#

yes please

bold copper
#

my biggest issue is that the marine codex is like 280 fucking pages long by itself, and then every other codex is like 140 pages at most

edgy cipher
#

140 for the bigger ones you mean

#

IG has one of the bigger codexes and its 140 something page long

#

Custodes is sub 90 pages I believe

hasty sorrel
#

i will say the paint has chipped on the metal ones cause im not done painting em

#

which is a pain

#

also got a pic of their faces

twilit cliff
#

thanks skele

hasty sorrel
#

np

#

i don't hate the metal models but

#

they are lower quality and a pain to work with

twilit cliff
#

the krieg dont seem like THAT much of a leap in quality

hasty sorrel
#

kriegers have a lot of smaller details that the cadian doesnt

#

stuff like buttons n pockets

#

dmg to their coats like small holes

twilit cliff
#

only thing that really irks me is the heads

#

older models seem to have wider faces

hasty sorrel
#

also backpacks

#

cadians just... don't have them

#

bar the vox caster

twilit cliff
#

yeah i was thinking of getting some backpacks for my IG

#

or shields dunno

#

also

#

wasnt some art for darktide posted with a steel legion guardsman having like

#

the regular army rank markings or whatever theyre called

#

instead of the funky thunderbolt patch

hasty sorrel
#

1 sec

twilit cliff
#

yh

#

what's up with that

hasty sorrel
#

the thunderbolt patch is regimental insignia where as the above is a mark of rank

#

usually they'd have one to a shoulder

twilit cliff
#

ah

#

still not a fan of the rank markings

#

looks too contemporary to have survived for 38000 tears

#

years

hasty sorrel
#

no reason for it to change really? like

#

theres some new ranks that are unique (the weapon specialist one is neat)

#

but other then that i think its fine

twilit cliff
#

yh i guess

#

im nitpicky and anal about stuff like that

hasty sorrel
#

also its cause steel legion are ww2 america so they got this kinda stuff to work with

#

wow that workled

twilit cliff
#

it didnt

hasty sorrel
twilit cliff
hasty sorrel
#

i know it didn't

twilit cliff
#

sarcasm doesnt translate well

hasty sorrel
#

we can prob assume the regiment patch isn't there cause hes part of the inquis group

#

unsure if hes playable or a hub npc tho

twilit cliff
#

i think he's got that archetype to just be an npc

#

sadly

hasty sorrel
#

probably, although this guy comes up twice

#

so this might be a playable

twilit cliff
#

looks tight

#

but seems like alternate versions to me

hasty sorrel
#

he looks like he works at the pub down the road from me

#

its kinda great

twilit cliff
#

might be skins but i dont think so

#

yeah i like that

#

they seem very down to earth

#

same with the steel legion man

hasty sorrel
#

might be alt versions/skins, but definetly some equipment concepts

#

not gonna take it as melta/hotshot confirmed yet tho

twilit cliff
#

where did they post these anyway? i only ever see you post them

hasty sorrel
#

these are from the dan abnett reveal trailer

green cave
#

Bolter confirmed?! So space marine confirmed too?!?!

bolter has been confirmed since the magazin in like

i feel like

#

nobody watched this

#

lol

twilit cliff
#

i did and forgot about it

hasty sorrel
#

i just checked

#

3 million people across the 2 original darktide trailers

#

40k watched the dabnett reveal

green cave
#

Eh, it was meant for people who know who he is, for general gamers it had nothing interesting... No gameplay, no story, nothing... Not that it was the case, since we got some new footage from it iirc

hasty sorrel
#

yup

#

stub revolver n some extra hammer stuff

#

and its where new glove came from

#

i'm still convinced its the 5th character

green cave
#

GSC confirmed?

hasty sorrel
green cave
#

I don't remember it was here that one person wanted/was sure that one char was a GSC infiltrator?

twilit cliff
#

the glove man

hasty sorrel
#

that was nuclear medic who was convinced it was GSC cause they wore gasmasks in the original reveal trailer

green cave
#

What do they mean??!!

edgy cipher
#

So I just noticed that the ork sledgehammer is a brick attached to a broom handle

hasty sorrel
#

amazing

edgy cipher
#

ork tech never cease to amaze me

green cave
#

Ah, yes, it was here that one person wanted a GSC infiltrator in the squad, and it wasn't medic

oh so 140k to 3 million

a bit better

compact umbra
#

About to go pick up my chaos space marines start collecting

plush swift
hasty sorrel
#

don't expect that too hard, considering that would mean no characters

plush swift
#

pretty much

hasty sorrel
#

which, they said no SM specifically to have characters

plush swift
#

Well not necessarily

#

You’d be the characters really

#

Just uh

hasty sorrel
#

not in a Hunt style thing, hunt has perma death

plush swift
#

Have some friends or good gaming buddies

green cave
#

Lol, all this again

plush swift
#

Ngl perma death would be the true way to do it for the Imperial Guard

#

Inquisition stole all the phoneix downs

hasty sorrel
#

Perma death works for a different style of game and i'd be down for that

plush swift
#

Tho looking at the gameplay also gave me a strange urge to play some more Deep Rock Galactic

hasty sorrel
#

but i want characters again, since they elevate VT so much

plush swift
#

Something about going down on a mission with a squad and rekting shit

#

Regardless whatever it’ll be, I’m sure it’ll be pretty alright

hasty sorrel
#

we'll see ye

and it does give me DRG vibes, mostly just cause 4 man scifi shooters

which are rare

#

Thanks! I wanna make my first actual army an emperors children army!

sour hill
#

Wonderful choice. Nice bright colour choices too.

compact umbra
#

Yea! They also have a nice variety on how you can style them, I wanna focus more on the mutated and drug aspect

sour hill
#

Hell yes! There are some really fun options you could pull off.

#

Poxwalker bits could make fantastic second heads/arm growths and shit for just general crazy mutations.

#

Gonna start painting my Deff Dread today.

I figure get the big scary one done first.

elfin yew

Emperor's children good choice

dusk osprey

My brother gave me an Eversor assassin missing an arm, so I improvised

Idk what you mean chief

looks fine to me

edgy cipher
#

I can't believe GW made the BT a horde

elfin yew
#

Waiting for Marines to get grot shield but with tempestors and the fluff text says "The weak serve as good bodyshields and not much else"

#

Their average 15 minute lifespan put to use

edgy cipher
#

You still mad about that ?

#

Also ouch : (

elfin yew
#

Zherlum

#

Im not

edgy cipher
#

I know I'm kidding

elfin yew
#

But you annoy the fuck out of me bringing it up every 2 daya

#

I cannot talk abt tabletop or orkz

edgy cipher
#

I shall stop then

#

You just needed to ask

elfin yew
#

Its oki

edgy cipher
#

But yeah if I trust Auspecs, those guys are as tanky as vangaurd vets

elfin yew
#

Its just been like 2 monthd since that game. Itd be like me bringing up a ambush to elf from august

#

Over and over hhhbh

edgy cipher
#

So BT have units slightly less tankier than bladeguards but way easier to buff

#

Yeah I get it, I understood the first time

green cave
#

What is the situation for Ad. Mech. are they still solid?

elfin yew
#

Very

edgy cipher
#

Still top tiers atm

elfin yew
#

Theyre both regularly good and Esp good since can be kitted to kill the other rlly good faction atm which is Drukhari

green cave
#

Top tier? Weren't the DE top tier? I mean, i knew that Ad. Mech. was still near the top, but i heard that other factions reached them

vivid rune
green cave
#

Ah, then i remembered correctly

elfin yew
#

Both. Are

green cave
vivid rune
#

Yup

green cave
#

How

edgy cipher
#

Vanguards are really cost effective

green cave
#

How can the Ad. Mech. be a horde faction?

vivid rune
#

Ill explain later i gtg drive home

edgy cipher
#

Because Mars is great and beneficiates alot from troups spam, plus the Ironstrider got nerfed pretty blady

green cave
green cave
#

The one normally only for servitors and techpriest

edgy cipher
#

Yeah their canticles are really good, plus them getting access to a great buffing character helps them towards the horde playstyle

elfin yew
#

Yeah Mars is like, disprortionally better than the other fws because of that

#

Its werid

#

Ive seen it described as "There's admech tier then there's Mars tier"

edgy cipher
#

Because Mars beneficiates shooting ... in an army where shooting is their primary phase

green cave
#

Yeah... When i managed to read some info it was weird to me that only mars got canticles on skitarii

green cave
edgy cipher
#

It is, but it doesn't compare to Mars

#

I know some people like to pick a detachment of lucius

green cave
#

It looks good ngl, the same can be said for some distant world homemade

#

Like, the expansionist ones, they seems to have good things

edgy cipher
#

Oh definitely Admech isn't bad, Mars just blows everything else out of the water

green cave
#

Oh

edgy cipher
#

And since Mars boost every Skitarii unit

#

Well Mars is run as horde

green cave
#

A lot of inf?

edgy cipher
#

But since its just straight up better than everything else, well Admech is mainly run as a horde

#

Yeah Mars gives all units with the skitarii keyword canticles

#

So to utilize it to the max you want to have as much skitarii as possible

green cave
#

Eeeeehhh, sound exactly what i would do... I mean, they still need a decent transport

#

Or vehicles afaik

#

Are the grav tank any good?

edgy cipher
#

Plus the Wrath of Mars stratagem is made to be used on a unit with a lot of shots

#

Which is the case of skitarii blobs

#

Plus Skitarii vets are really good

green cave
#

Skitarii vets? Are they a new model? Or just skitarii that survived many table battles?

edgy cipher
#

They are an upgrade, you can select a skitarii troop and give them the veteran template

green cave
#

Oooohhh, nice, didn't knew this

edgy cipher
#

These guys are petty good since it enhances their basic stats, allows them to get more bonuses from HQ units and they get very good stratagems

green cave
#

What about scions? Are they good? And most importantly, they can get a valk right?

edgy cipher
#

Scions you mean the Imperial Guard unit right ?

green cave
#

Tempestus scions, so yeah, IG

#

But i have no idea if they are their own faction

edgy cipher
#

They are a bit overcosted because of their innate deepstrike rules but they are very flexible in their loadout. They are currently being used as suicide squads that pop in, annihilate a key target then die. They can have valkyries in their detachment yeah

sour hill
#

Still got a lot to do. I have to work on the engines next.

#

But we're getting there.

They're crazy, honestly. It's the size of Ghaz.

Dredd's should be cheapish on ebay atm, with them being in the ork combat patrol

I think I'm finishing the Dread completely tonight.

#

My big weekend project.

#

I finished a necromunda floor tile but didnt finish all the other stuff i planned on finishing :(

#

Almost finished my red corsairs right arm, pauldron and head. Will prolly finish those tomorrow

#

Hopefully*

#

Which should leave me with enough time to finish his backpack through the rest of next week

#

And that would be my first finished 40k miniature this year lmfao

sour hill
#

Dopeeee

#

Slow and steady progress. You're still stepping closer to completion.

#

It's not a race.

#

Just as long as you're satisfied with your work. 🙏

lapis tundra
#

Yeah tbf i barely painted stuff earlier this year and then started like 500 different projects while running out of important stuff like super glue, certain paints and most importantly bits to convert

sour hill
#

LOL

#

It happens.

#

My issue is I run out of like... My black contrast.

#

Immediately go to the store the next day and come home with 20 other supplies I didn't need but figured "just in case"

visual cliff
#

contrast, my mind is still like mmmh heresy

#

army painters new paints got me like mmmh yes

sour hill
#

I use contrast paints as my base layer.

#

It does a great job of shading low areas and such.

lapis tundra
#

Finished floor with door and barricade, glad i managed to get them look half decent without any weathering besides nuln oil

sour hill
#

And then when I add a layer or two on it, it's clean AF.

#

@lapis tundra That looks seriously GREAT. The dirty metal look is what I live for.

lapis tundra
#

Its pretty much just leadbelcher, 2 coats nuln oil and a drybrush of necron compound

#

Simple yet effective imo

sour hill
#

Very very effective.

#

Love it.

lapis tundra
#

The only difficult thing is to apply the nuln oil without leaving any marks and not using too much necron compound when drybrushing

sour hill
#

It's why watered down Black Templar is my über Nuln.

#

That shit doesn't leave a streak and gets layered VERY quickly.

lapis tundra
#

Oh i mean streak as in "starts painting randomly while the corners already start drying up"

visual cliff
#

its looks amazing , im to inexperienced to do scenery , still need to finish my Dkok and maybe then ill try my hand at some trench scenery

sour hill
#

Oooo. The red pants and nice. Some dark shading on that and it'll look great with that blue coat. blktasPogL

yeah gonna wash it down and highlight it back up

anyone have a marcharius completely black or tanks completely black paint job ?

#

I've got a macharius, but not in complete black.

#

tried a leman with grey primer then black tiger stripes

#

doesnt look too bad

#

just wanna give the vanquisher a very grim look

hasty sorrel

red(er) pant

rose sluice
#

Me like

hasty sorrel
#

thanks

rose sluice
#

What blue did you use for the coat?

#

The outer bit

hasty sorrel
#

Base in macragge, layered over that in hoeth and then the edges and stuff are in fenrisian grey

#

the turned up bits on the front are dark reaper with fenrisian

rose sluice
#

I want to give mine the blue coat but i’m not sure about any of the rest of it

hasty sorrel
#

grey works in place of the red, might just do the red for the officer

edgy cipher
#

Do you plan to do a confidant aswell ?

hasty sorrel

a what?

# hasty sorrel a what?

The confidant is the second in command that replaces the sergeant if he dies, its a unit choice and it would also require red pants

How did you do the blood splatters on the sawblade?

sour hill

@edgy cipher Smug

sour hill
#

And then just pull back the bristles and let it fly free.

dusk hill
#

yee keeping an old frayed brush forthat sort of thing is useful

sour hill
#

Hell yeah. 🙏

lapis tundra
#

I tried mine with gw small drybrush but it didnt come out as good sadly

sour hill
#

Yeah. You need to find a brush that is legit like... Dry as fucking pine needles.

#

It'll feel crusty AF.

#

Decent brushes will still be pliable and move with your thumb flicking the paint.

#

Shit brushes will bounce back to stiff, shitty up front.

#

And don't wet the bristles at all. Let it just soak a little contrast or red.

lapis tundra
#

My problem was that the brush got too wet from the paint and didnt really splatter the paint onto the mini

hasty sorrel
#

if theres too much paint get some kitchen roll and run the brush against that first

lapis tundra
#

Like it wasnt dripping wet or something, just a lil soaked too much

#

(Now that i think about it that might have been because i used the thinned down blood for the blood god i used to paint the blood on the axe for the spattering part aswell)

sour hill
#

Ohhhh. Yeah. I'd just use straight up bftbg

#

It should be thinnish like a contrast paint.

#

I just realized I didn't put a decal on the dead SMs shoulder pad.

#

One more step to do tonight I guess before I let him full cure and prime.

It had to do with pumping material in/out of the planet, or maybe it was energy
