>>93373962marine scouts look awful and always have
>>93373988Wrong.
I wish that regular terminators either got a point reduction or got better weapons. As it stands right now, if I wanted a heavily armored deep strike infantry with good shooting, I’d just pick inceptors. >>93373962>TQ:I like that Leagues of Votann have an interesting art style. It manages to look future sci-fi and grimdark in its own way. You can almost imagine the emblems on their vehicles being logos for different mining corporations.
>>93373999this is literally the worst they ever looked
>>93373988Okay.
Progress on scorpions I built this morning.Post your projects here let's see how far you've come
>>93374006Inceptors don't have a 2+ or a 4++ or a melee profile past mandatory CCW.
>>93374027Okay, but actually try getting terminators to do anything. They deepstrike in, 9 inches away, so you have to shoot for one turn at least, but you only have storm bolters (str4ap0dmg1) so you may as well shoot at chaff, but then you have to move and charge into something else, so a terminator captain is needed to actually make use of melee in a timely fashion and at that point, just get a vehicle that can blow those heavy infantry away before your terminators can reach them. Hell, storm speeders are cheaper than terminators and they can deep strike too, lmao.
This thread is now being GUARDED. Imperially, GUARDED. Loyal regiments will report in and hook into the line.
>>93374053>They deepstrike in, 9 inches away, so you have to shoot for one turn at least,Try rapid ingressVehicles and storm speeders don't dig out infantry tucked away well in ruins and then contest the objective. Different tools for different jobs
>>93374024Meat sword update: this scheme looks better on poxwalkers and I'm not particularly satisfied with it atm. Considering maybe washing it down a bit, which should give it a bit of a slimy texture because VMC washes are kinda glossy. Idk. Advice is welcome.An anon here had suggested bone instead, but I stuck with the flesh hoping that I could bring a touch more red onto this dude.
>>93373999>DA scouts>white dudes with feathers on their headsLmao
>>93374075>>93374075>Rapid ingress Yeah, but then you have to use CP unless you get lucky with the teleport placement, and it just seems more prudent to get another unit. Also it seems like a play style issue. I play a lot of white scars so I have jump packs and bikes everywhere to root stuff out. My use case is probably different than yours.
I took a break from my haruspex and built that extra commissar I found and finished putting the backpacks on my kriegy bois
>>93374055Boomtown squad reportin' to tha front as ordered suh!
>>93373999Kino
>>93374055Feels good to know I'm "Guarded".
Acetone or alcohol to remove dried paint from my brush? Getting master brush soap too if that matters
I don't know what I want from Warhammer related Youtube but it's not this. So much clickbait and hyperbole, which I get is by design for the algorithm but fuck it makes me not trust anything.
>>93374174Why not just stop half assing your brush destroying cleaning process and dip it I'm lava?
>>93374178Your suggested videos are entirely based on what you watch. Self report of the month bro
>>93374174either the paint is in the bristles, and you wash it out with soap, or it's in the ferule, and the brush is kill
Guard bros, how you holding up?
>>93374178>Should we reject WYSIWYGIt's an entirely personal preference, why the fuck would anyone discuss this as if it's up to the community to decide?1984 is a warning, not a fucking target.
>>93374208>when the catachan goes to the officio prefectus
>>93374210WYSIWYG is explicitly not a personal preference little bro..
>>93374234>little bro..lolYou can proxy if you like, m8. I'll be WYSIWYG.It's fine by me.>but tourn-Are also free to set their own rules.
>>93374186Yeah, it's based on sorting for things related to Warhammer.
>>93374259And related to videos you've watched.Funny how I get Warhammer videos recommended to me and none of it is slop shit huh? Almost like I watch none of it so YT doesn't push it to me
>>93374249>You can do X, it's fine by meRight, so even you admit it's not a personal choice as you're giving permission. Then lampshading TOs requiring it like that changes anything.
>>93374292>you're giving permissionDo you know what consent is?Two people make the mutual decision to have sex, but they both make the individual decision to consent.It's your decision to consent to proxies, ergo WYSIWYG is a personal choice.TOs can require or not require it. They have that choice.Both are (as they should be) completely divorced from the ramblings and whims of online personalities and their following.
>>93374178dont dis Eric's Hobby Workshop he's cool
personally i feel a smug sense of superiority when my models are WYSIWYG but my opponents' aren't
>>93374319False equivalence, nobody is talking about your decision to model correctly, it's about turning up to games with things modelled correctly. The obvious context any non-autist would understand.It's what YOU see is what YOU get, not what I see is what I get. Retard.
>>93374174Isopropyl alcohol from like walmart
>>93374208They keep pushing us to use more tanks but the don't have the support yet to be good.
>>93374359I certainly care way less now that 40k has switched to power ratings and gear doesn't fucking matter
>>93374090Maybe more purples and should be saturated with colour.
>>93374386>nobody is talking about your decision to model correctlyCorrect. I am not talking about what you choose to model but what you choose to bring to the table.>It's what YOU see is what YOU get, not what I see is what I get.What? We get whatever you agree to allow. Or whatever we've consented to by way of attending some organized event.>Retard.Back at ya, champ.Last (You).
>>93374386This guy is right>>93374442This guy is wrong
Im right
>>93373962Anyone got the 10th ed csm codex on pdf
>>93374208Haven't seen guard at my FLGS in awhile. I don't think I have played vs them in 10th.
>>93374504You people are still asking for it? Shit I should have saved it when that one anon shared his scans here to satiate you poor bastards.
Here's a funny though experiment:If GW created a Dark Mech faction what would be their signature color scheme for their "face" studio paint job models to make them distinct from all the other chaos factions and the Adeptus Mechanicus?
>>93374208>Guard bros, how you holding up?Better than Codex space marines.
>>93374548>GW created a Dark Mech factionno fuck off.
>>93374442The proxying at my shop is out of control some time. Unless I'm playing my newest project of orks, I always play fully painted WYSIWYG but I'll play pick up games vs dudes running grey tide space Marines as chaos with the most random cross overs. What bothers me most are when old heads with oceans of points painted, still find the need to proxy shit. Don't be a sweaty loser and play what you have....please.
>>93374556uh oh exoditefag melty
>>93374566admech look ugly enough as it is, I doubt GW will ever capture darkmechs appeal in plastic.
>>93374548I'd like to see black with purple robes. Although, what keeps regular mechanics from being played as "dark"?
>>93374282>actually defending Youtube's brain worm infested algorithmYea it's my fault I randomly get suggested to watch livestock hoof care videos, because of all the livestock hoof care videos I watched.
>>93374234WSYIWYG died as a rule so my squad leaders could have 3 visually different guns with the same rules.
Does anyone have pdfs of the imperial armour books? I have a trip coming up and I want to read something on the plane.
Would it be rude to bring 2 mek guns to a 750 point game?I'm not mean enough to do 3. All bubblechukkas of course.
oh wowstill no new 40k news
you just got news for boarding patrols. Shut up and get your wallet ready for overpriced terrain.
>>93374024Working on more ultras. Almost done with this squad.>>93374678Eh, not really. They're not even that great at the moment. As always when in doubt, though, discuss it with your opponent.
>>93374548>>93374571GW would need to ask the good modellers from AoS/Necromunda/horus heresay to make 40k models if they wanted to have the faction standout from the current admech linedont know if they can though, we'll probably just be stuck with the 40k modellers
>>93374591YT gives you more content of what it thinks you want, yes. I watch Vince, Cult of paint, occasionally NJM, BDCF, and some other small painting / wh channels and I don't ever get served sloppa. You do, because it clearly thinks you like it.
>>93374617Read a book on paint thinning too jesus.
>>93374604WYSIWYG didn't die, GW may have been retarded in some instances but it's still important for the guy with a flamer to be represented properly.
>>93374178Eric's Hobby is fine. The rest you need to click the dots and Not Interested. It won't fix everything but it will help.
>>93374722that's not thick paint that's phone digital zoom ruining the picture
>>93374744Not interested barely works. What does fix it immediately is removing videos from your history.
>>93374744eric is cool but the thing on his neck is so distracting
>>93374718it's unreal how good the heresy admech models are compared to 40k
>>93374773>heresy admech modelsWhen do the new ones come out? I want that tank.
>>93374678Mine almost never kill anything.
>>93374208was doing pretty good until Thousand Sons fucked me in the ass without my consent
I’m building some terrain and buildings for my at home 40k table. My friends and son play 10th-adjacent homebrew where we don’t get retarded with visibility and the current ruins rules. I’m making some buildings with multiple floors and was wondering what GW terrain heights are for floors? I’m doing 3 inches myself.
>>93374878GW doesn't standardize terrain
The old upgrade sprue still looks good on the new bodies and I hope GW puts effort into new and units rather than release a codex that is just the index but with a new sonic marines sculpt and a pity model that's just "slaaneshier marine".My ideal is new sculpts on everything but given GW track record the best feasible outcome is something like>Combat patrol EC:>10 sonic marines (legionnaries with one copy of the noise weapon pack and 2 copies of the noise marine upgrade pack)>10 Bikers of slaanesh (extra heads to supplement the marines above)>Doom Rider>the anniversary sonic marine model as a captain equivalent>sonic dreadnought
>>93374178Cult of paint is good. I've met Henry in real life. He's a damn good painter and a genuine nice person.
>>933748783 inches is generally community accepted standard, at tournaments and other organized events
I wish my 3 inches could be accepted...
>>93374932depends if its painted or not.. you do paint your measuring tools for games right?
>>93374208On the cleanup stage of painting this thing. Couldn't get a game last week but I sure as hell got a lot of painting done, instead.
>>93374791No release date yet, but we’ve been on a 40k/30k release drought for nearly two months now. Once AoS finishes releasing, we’ll probably start getting news again.Personally I just want to know what the promised HH melee upgrades will look like.
>>93374899I don't think EC will just get Legionaires with an upgrade sprue, they'll get Noise Marines and lose Legionaires (and every other non-EC unit), like every other God-specific CSM army did.It's just gonna be World eaters all over again where they release half an army and forget about it for a few years.
Ale dairy
Ork bros, how are we holding up?
>>93375099thing is I still think they'll give the cult legions daemons and squat undivided daemons as a thing. so EC units plus daemonettes and seekers etcetc
>>93374899What happened to phoenix terminators, did they all end up corrupted? It’d be kind of a shame, they’re on the cooler end of legion-specific terminators.
What are the odds they actually increase admechs point value? I have only like 2080 points of admech after 2 battleforces, combat patrol, boarding patrol, a skorpius, and a spare chicken, giving me little choice in what I'm running.
>>93374591You too get those? I thought I maybe got them because I watched some sheep herding dogs videos
>>93374548Yellow.It's the only Chaos colour available, I'm sorry it has to be yellow.
>>93374548Dark green with neon green accents
>>93374591Livestock hoof care is important anon
>>93375072
>>93375106Sudden urge to paint cow-print elves
>scammer terrorizing my local trade group>tons of different accounts and tons of aliases>its a transformer
>>93375293/toy/ club is two doors down
>>93375293Same thing here, although I don't know the real identity of the individual. Every day there's a a few fresh new listing's that are all scams
>>93375135>cult legions daemons and squat undivided daemons as a thingWould probably be for the best, though not sure how Belakor or Vashtorr would work then.Probably gonna need to rename Chaos Space Marines to just Chaos or Legions of Chaos or whatever, if they're gonna roll the daemons into it
>>93375293There needs to be a retard filter scammer in every areas group to teach the mouthbreathers adult life skills. Some guy scammed one of the members of our local trade group into buying 1k in fortnite cards in exchange for a titan that never got sent
>>93375423Vashtorr already has his own detachment, Belakor gets given one for CSM-brood brothers where its "take 2/3rds your army as daemons" or some shit
>>93375452i agree its stupid to get scammed but its actually kinda refreshing that people are so trusting in the hobby. like every other aspect of life it seems everyone is trying to scam/grift you.
>>93374208Sky tallon finally came back in stock, been waiting for like 8 months to buy that stupid thing. Was honestly afraid they were going to oop it. Just waiting on a vulture now and ill have almost everything I need to complete my small totally not starship troopers force.
>>93375478>Belakor gets given one for CSM-brood brothersYeah, could work.Probably could be added in a dataslate or something upon the squatting of the daemon codex next edition probably
>>93375501>it's refreshing to surround yourself with retarded peopleIt absolutely is not. The whole warhammer hobby community would be leagues better if it's participants had more adult life skills. I'm tired of hearing about warhammer players with 12k piles of unpainted plastic tell me they don't have money, or that everything is so expensive. I've seen multiple retarded warhammer players with kids buy $500+ piles of kits at my lgs just to be brought back the same day with their gf or mom standing behind them tapping their foot and chewing them out about their kids daycare or their apartment rent payments. All those retards deserve to be scammed out of their money until they learn how to be a grown up
>>93374178Ehw is great. But hobby related videos are just friendship simulators, and absolute timesinks. Unless you're learning something productive from them, they're a complete waste of time. Your time would be better spent reading or painting
>>93374174Jesus christ anon, just regularly swish them in normal water while painting.
what is the eavy metal way, and what are the alternatives?
>>93374174Alcohol soak for 15 mins and then working normal shampoo through the brush to remove the remainder. Running conditioner through the bristles will also help paint flow from the brush as it will smooth the surface of the bristles. >tldr: clean your brushes made of natural hair the same way you'd clean your natural hair
>>93375591Eavy metal way involves painting your models nicely and carefully applying your highlights. The alternative is that your models look like muddy slop and only get complimented by talentless europoors with less than 5 painted models
>>93375591eavy metal is basing, washing, highlighting your base back up then edge highlighting everythingthere are tons of alternatives including oil pinwashes for shading and volumetric highlights for more advanced paintingand things like zenithal/slapchop for lazy sloppy volumetric highlights
>>93375628Show your nicely painted models that totally aren't a muddy slop then
>>93375647why are you so defensive of the models you will never own or paint?
>>93375653>not posting modelsi assume you don't have any either then
>>93375657not that anon, just laughing at how instantly pissy you got :)nobody has ever pulled off blanchitsu model painting well other than blanche, even duncan's attempt at it just looks like every other grimderp pigment slop paintjob
>>93375647Taking pictures is for secondary faggots. Why would I waste my time taking gay pictures when I could be painting kino models, or playing games. Maybe wash sloppas have extra time to take pictures but I certainly dont
>>93375666you post this exact same bait every few weeks and nobody falls for it, yet you continue to do sowhy?
can the angry people please leave already
>>93375662John blanche is such an utterly talentless hack that even he can't paint models in his own style and make them look good. Pic very related
>>93375680(you) tried
>>93375676>everyone who hates wash sloppa is the same person>hes gangstalking me and keeps making fun of my ugly models covered in tidemarks
>>93375692your pathetic ass knows I'm talking about the same low effort baitpost of I-I'M TOO BUSY PLAYING TAKING PICS IS FOR GAYS AND GIRLS WHO DON'T OWN MODELS
>>93375700Sounds like something a wash sloppa with too much time on his hands would worry about. Maybe if you were spending more time on each model you wouldn't have time to stress about the bugmen making fun of your models anymore
>>93375591'Eavy Metal style exists because it's the best way to compliment a model, hell I could say it's the best way to paint a model period.It may not be someone's style, but at the end of the day there's a reason why it's used for the boxart, it's that good.
>>93375711except it actively makes certain schemes look worsefor example, dark angels look infinitely better without neon green tron outlines
>>93375710>calling yourself a bugmanlmao
>>93375718I actually like it, I was thinking of using DAs instead of BTsNow I could have been really nasty and used the HH 2.0 SoHs which I adore, that'd have rustled some feathers
>>93375718>except it actively makes certain schemes look worse>for example, dark angels look infinitely better without neon green tron outlinesThis post was typed by paintlet hands that only touch ugly models
>>93375727>>93375728the knightly chapter doesn't look knightly when covered in tron outlines, simple asthey could even go with a less garish yellow-green to highlight to alleviate this trash but they continue down this path
>>93375734>knightlyI want my power armour to look like power armourIf I wanted my power armour to look like metal, I'd paint Grey Knights or buy some Bretonnians.
is it fair to take a brigand in 1k? assuming not in 500
>>93375718>newfag take locatedAbsolutely abysmal taste. Bright edge highlights on DA are kino and sovlful
>>93375744>DVBasedI will now post my favorite DA miniature ever.
>>93375744these are not the same level of highlights as these >>93375727 which literally proves my point that even a less obnoxious highlight color would improve the current eavy metal scheme for dangels immensely you disingenuous faggot >>93375738>I want my power armor to look like power armoryou're complaining that the knight chapter is supposed to look knightly and ruining their aesthetic as a consequence, go play your milquetoast grey knights and fuck off, retard
>>93375752>proceeds to post an image from GW store and not an image of his own miniaturemany such cases
>>93375753That is a lot of words to type when you could just say you're blind, have shit taste, and are shit at painting
>>93375763Post your models
>>93374178I like Poorhammer
>>93375769It won't change your shit taste or make you any better at painting so I'll pass blind-kun

>>93375831>>93375840That's exactly what I'm saying, that is sad that people don't like some original xenos boxes sculpts.
>>93375718I also hate the neon chunky highlights some do in DA. Desaturated is better.

>>93375806As a robot fan, what I don't get about tau ones is that they don't look good compared to others IPs.
Is it just me or does Vashtorr have a weird niche of needing to buff a vehicle while hitting something with his hammer and flamethrower? How likely are you to do all 3 of those things in one match and get your points worth?

>>93373962>TQI like the chapters idea as easy way of make your dudes, but I hate space marine armour, looks like the wet fantasy of a 12 year old child.
>>93376034Pretty sure they're in IP hell and not owned by GW, seems like the Khrave have replaced them as 'powerful pirate xeno race that can go toe to toe with astartes'>>93376011I utterly agree
>>93376034And I want Gal Gadot's lips around my dick like a gasket, but we can't have it all anon.
>>93375711>can't into volumetric highlights >edge highlighting unnecessary shit It exists because it's consistent and approachable for beginners. There are better ways to paint black than bluing all over it.
>>93376089>powerful pirate xeno race that can go toe to toe with astartesHere you go
>>93376102This doesn't look good, looks too cartoony.
>>93376111>looks too cartoony.Good
can you filter GWs site to show only generic space marines, it shows me a list of 200+ units and I just want to see generics
>>93376102This model that you posted as evidence why edge highlights are for beginners is covered head to toe in edge highlights. You can make the claim that you don't like blue edge highlights on black which is a subjective thing, but edge highlights are a tool used by everyone from beginners to the best painters in the game
I haven't exactly followed the rumors but is Deathwatch getting axed?
>>93376148Hopefully
>>93376089>the KhraveBoring, they are just like the AoS vampire mutants.
>>93376148Nah they're just doomposting. At worst they'll be part of the agents of the imperium codex. Even then I doubt it cause I think they want all marines under the marine label neatly.
>>93376148>Deathwatch axed before your 2nd game is out
>>93376169Checks out, the game is still using old cadian designs too
>>93376146so you're just making up a conversation in your head huh
>>93376148The fact is that Deathwatch combat patrol was pulled from the store at the same time as the Inquisitors and Assassins. If I had to guess, they're being rolled into the Imperial Agents codex.
Wait, centurions are from manlet days? That means they might get an update of some kind or get squatted with the rest of the manlets. Which is good, because they look like shit.
>>93376212What are you talking about anon? Centurions sold so well and are so beloved they based the entire primaris line on them.
>>93376212>That means they might get an update of some kindGravis, gravis is just the same idea "strap more armor on top of a standard power armored marine" as centurions but done actually well.
>>93376221KEK
>>93376212no they will make primaris centurions, they'll have knee fins and a roll cage, GW can't miss a chance to bloat the codex more
>>93376229Don't forget the stubbers!
Finally managed to secure a Fire Prism after months/years of it being out of stock. Very fun to paint. I am wishing I had put more colour into the crystal though.
>>93376212>That means they might get an updateI pray for this everyday
wait hold on so half the people that are arguing over paint styles dont actually paint themselves?
>>93376236Looking good. Didn't know we had multiple people into Iyanden here
>>93376245>halfChrist, I wish it was only half.
>>93376245Of course. I have posted models with barely highlights and even no highlights and no one called on me and got praised.
>>93376176I accept your concession
>>93376236I'm not personally fond of ochre but that's a very subjective thing. Good shit anon, very tidy
>>93376245The only people who throw fits about other people's painting choices are those unable to make their own painting choices.
>>93376236I hate elfs, but this chasis is pure kino.
>>93376174No it isn't, they all have the knee pads that send your rotted axewound into a fury
>>93376278I think it's just the lighting the white backdrop messed up the iphone's camera a bit.
>>93376321
>>93376260>barely highlights and even no highlightsHonestly, if the paint is smooth and you paint within the lines without overspilling and put a basic wash on it, the shit looks fine without all the edge highlights or whatever.
>>93376324
>>93376300Nice try
>>93376331
>>93376334
>>93376337
>>93376326You caught me!I usually do bright colors as a base and then start using washes to make the minis dirtier
>>93376340
>>93376269>This model that you posted as evidence why edge highlights are for beginnersQuote me where I said this schizo. You even felt the need to point out that the model has edge highlights on it like it's something anyone with eyes would fail to notice. I'm afraid you're addicited to "winning" convorsations with retards (yourself, in your head).
>>93376344
>>93376349
>>93376353
>>93376342and that's totally fine.I like doing a bright basecoat, put a wash on it that darkens it down and shades the recesses and then just go back to the original basecoat for a brighter highlight. Literally just a single paint and a wash and you have a shadow a midtone and a highlight
>>93376358
>>93376363
>>93376367
>>93376360Thats also a great method. I think that washes are more fun to use in general
>>93376373
>>93376379
>>93376387
>>93376392
>>93376396
>>93376392Those cans look so unfinished next to those marines
>>93376400
>>93376407
Thought I'd post a pic of my whole Iyanden army while I'm at it.
>>93376410
>>93376410I never realized the new avatar was that small. Wraith titan turned out pretty cool tho anon
>>93376424Stuff looks pretty small next to the revenant. One day I'll get my hands on a phantom and then they will really be dwarfed.
>>93376260based, i farm (You)s with my shitty airbrush jobs
>>93376424It's a huge model though
Is the salamanders fag here? I'm looking at the thunder hammer in the samalanders upgrade sprue and wondering if it would fit on a terminator or be too small. Does anyone know how those arms on upgrade sprues compare to terminators or do they just look too small on the heavier armour?
>>93376245Not quite. I do think nothing but edge highlights looks much worse than doing proper volumetric hilights, which are also quicker. I don't get why they say edge highlighting is better for begginers when begginers don't have the brush control to make it look decent and takes ages to paint every single edge multiple times on top of being unnatural. Finding where to put the volumetric highlights might be a bit difficult at first but there's tricks to do it. I'm not an expert myself but I think my models look way, way better painted this way.
Anyone else still want the old chaos lord over the new one
>>93376444I had assumed he was knight sized for some reason
>>93376483Bad case of marine scaletisms
>>93376457Painting secondaries love saying that something is for beginners because it makes them feel superior in a field they have no practical experience in. Edge highlights like any painting technique can be used well if they're done mindfully and with purpose, just like drybrushing has a place for heavily textured surfaces like groundwork and fur but suffers when used on smoother surfaces
Why are we still here? Just to suffer? How did we get to this point?These are tournament win rates of different armies.
>>93376485We don't have any eldar players at my current lgs and the lgs in my old town had one but he played Oops all jetbikes. This is my first time actually seeing the avatar outside of the box art and next to another model
>>93376497Those are clearly timestamps on a youtube video
>>93376500Yeah. And?
>>93376500based retard
>>93376497Because thr game is difficult to balance due to the variety of units and focused melee is especially hard to balance in a game where shooting can be so powerful
>>93376502You pretended they were win rates. Tier 1 and 2 are meaningless without context.
>>93376509Tier 1 - top tier. Highest win rates.
>>93376514Next time put some effort in and post actual winrates. The other auspex tactics watching faggot did.
>>93376519Ok.
>>93375647
>>93376542None of these include any tangible data, it's all just arbitrary lists with no numbers to show what you're talking about
>>93376542I thought everyone was crowing about how the ork codex was good? What happened?
>>93376565Absolutely malding, E
>>93376565I don't enjoy the ice bases but the ogryn turned out very nice
>>93376565That actually looks nice!Nice job anon, i'm sorry i doubted you
>>93376571It got a ton of nerfs for some reason.
>>93376571Didn't they get massively nerfed in the dataslate?
>>93376571They were and then the last dataslate happened
>>93376542Tier 5 signing in.
What's a non-skewed take all comers marines list designed to be kept for a long time and not altered with the meta?
>>93376571GW balanced it to shit.
>>93376565God, ogryn models are dated.
>>93376600Would be nice to get an updated Ogryn model, maybe a female one with huge tits
>>93376592Only things that stay in the fat middle of the meta tend to be basic dudes like intercessors, assault intercessors, lieutenants etc.. everything else tends to ebb and flow in competitiveness but basic dudes always trend towards the middle. If you paint as /yourdudes/ then you just pick whatever flavour of marines runs the best at any given time.
>>93376590How does it feel to be at the bottom?
>>93376592You can't do that and stay meta. You can build an unchanging 1200~ point "core" of your army that you triple varnish and don't ever change, and then adjust your remainder of your list to whatever is hot at the moment.
In hindsight early primarised characters were really done dirty. If he released today he could have been a proper terminator again and his honor guard wouldn't be bog standard MKX with a cape
>>93376620>that you triple varnish and don't ever changeBased and stillmanpilled.
>>93376624Maybe he'll get Primaris'd 2.0
>>93376624Shrike is an abomination.
>>93376637I rike him
>>93376620I can print as many non-centurion infantry as I want thanks to accurate designers and scans of GW models but I do lack vehicles, so all I need to buy would be vehicles and the odd character I guess.
>>93376613It's great. I'm saving money by not travelling to events, and I have heaps of time to paint now. The homos at GW will surely fix things eventually.
>>93376640Okay?
>>93376638The fact that you had to put the helmet that wasn't designed to even fit on his neck already tells much.
>>93376651In hindsight I don't think I'd have minded his bare head.It wasn't a very hard conversion in any case.
>>93376655I know it's not difficult, which makes it even weirder that it wasn't an intentional build option. But in any case, the new design is simply worse in every way to the old one. They just had to fix the proportions not change everything.
>>93376542Luv me Admech
>>93373962Did the Sororitas and GSC codices get scanned?
>>93376665The emo heads just made me think the sculptor was taking the piss desu.
Out of 40k, 30k, and AoS, which setting do you think has the best Tzeentch army?
>>93376624>johnny-come-lately has awful tasteShocking.
Where does the trend of painting Ork armour vibrant colours like >>93371788 come from? I remember a White Dwarf around 2010 with a battle report featuring some guy's Evil Sunz painted with brilliant red and orange armour plates that looked great but it's kinda random , unlike other armours the material is just metal so are orkz slapping fluro paint on it>>93376410>>93376417Your tone transitions are so smooth anon, looks sublime
>>9337672340k.
>>93376723I do love me some tzaangors.
>>93376718they're really not that badI like the Conan looking bastard
>>93376774>Conan lookingMy fucking sides.
>>93376792You fear the truth
>>93376713I have pictures of the sister codex and a physical sisters codex, but Im not disassembling my codex to get a scan of it. Its not too big, if I could just take pictures without removing the pages from the binding I'd be open to doing it but I wouldn't want to edit the pdf.
>>93376571They got overnerfed because they were winning too many games in tournaments, and less tracked absolutely STOMPING casual games.
>>93376542When deathwatch goes away next month I'm going to miss them. I love those bolter ammunition strategems, and they just fixed captains not being able to do them for free.
>>93376748I don't know where the trend itself comes from but I simply enjoy bright models. To me, they're more pleasant to look at both on the table and in a photo.
>>93376842Releasing new models for them right before primaris was a retarded move. On top of that it's a conversion heavy army in the modern hobbyscape. That said being like 4% of armies really isn't bad when you're one of many space marine armies and a mostly unsupported one at that.
>>93376774I can't ever imagine myself using any sort of bare heads for space marines.Helmets forever for everyone.
>>93376797>40yo looking emoRG is the secret true cringe chapter.
>>93376895The rubicon primaris gave them a new lease on life
>>93376924
>>93374053Rapid ingress helps termies a bit. Though the problem with termies is that they don't really have any targets they're good at hitting, and they're not tanky enough that you can just forget an objective if you're sitting on it. Their melee isn't good enough to justify their non-existent shooting, they're kind of expensive and they're slow, which means not a very good unit unless it's legitimately unkillable.
>>93376950lol someone at GW was malding
>>93376895>When I was>A scavver>My father>Took me to the spire>To see the Raven Guard
>>93374006If you want to see what terminators need to do to be usable look at Deathwing Knights. One of the most pushed units in the entire game as of now.
Apparently, the T'au know about the DAoT and the STC.What would happen in the T'au got their hands on an STC?
>>93376995Tau tech probably already mogs anything an STC could make because GW love them that much
>>93376950And this is why we have the Minotaurs because space marines are fucking mentally deranged
If the chaos bikers ever get an update do you think they'll get a more modern chaosy model with fleshmetal bits, teeth and perhaps the bikes tranforming a bit into beasts? Or perhaps some daemonic halfway joining centaur style? Or do you think they'll stay their old style evil spiky marines?
>>93376995Probably get horrifically raped by it? I doubt the AI inside of it is keen on being used by fish aliens
>>933770183 miniature lords of skulls
Do recasts normally have a ton of flash or did I just get a bad batch?
>>93377023Did you forget that the Drukhari claimed an STC and corrupted it for their purposes?
>>93377018i hope its just a modern refresh true to the originals because the old bike design is metal as fuck
>>93377041I did wtf did they use it for?
>>93377049Political flexing and then as a bioweapon.
>>93377012>Weirdwaaagh! Zagdakka decapitated>forge world Columnus saved>Iron Father Kristos and his conduct are scrutinized by a council of his peers under the observation of Martian officialsThere's nothing about it that would warrant a punitive action by the High Lords.
>>93377049I know they found several mega important cures and medical miracles and decided to keep them locked away or even reverse engineered them back into bigpox just for the luls and because they can feed off of the suffering of plague victims or something. Drukhari have a bunch of weird bioweapons like one that makes bones grow erratically into a prison in your own body or transformation people into living statues of glass.
>>93377059>>93377080Vile xenos
>>93376995>terminator armour is super great, made with advanced materials and can survive getting stepped on by a titan>Russ is a terrible death trap that dies to a stern look>both are made with plasteel and ceramiteWish the writers stopped drinking the internet meme Kool-aid.
>>93377124>Leman Russ>masterpieceA single Hammerhead skimmer tank is a match for a formation of Leman Russes. It outranges, out-speeds, out-maneuvers, and outshoots Imperial tanks.This was made painfully obvious in the second battle for Agrellan when Imperial tanks outnumbered T'au tanks by a factor of 10 to 1 and STILL LOST.
Man people are selling their armies out of nowhere for some reason
>>93377124thought russ' were made from plasteel and ferrosteel, not ceramite
Do Necron have artillery?
>>93377171Yes. Monoliths, Doomsday Cannons, Megaliths.
>>93377171?
>>93377176Remember when Calgar lifted one of these to redirect its fire at a C'tan cage? How much do you guys think it weighs?
>>93377147When are we going to see Imperial planes shoot down one of those Tau titans, since titans are dumb and inferior to air superiority. Or is it ok when the Tau do it?
>>93377147>tau wank>look up source>tau booksThis is how it goes for any faction really
>>93377176
>>93376542was bully boyz really carrying orks that fucking hard?
>>93376542I like how he chose to only use marine pictures except for the one votann pic
>>93377240I mean to be fair if you put every 40k faction on a board and threw a dart at it there's a really good chance you'll hit some flavor of space marine.
>>93377204Not if you’re Eldar :(
Not a bad look for 'stealers.https://www.warhammer-community.com/2024/07/19/the-gangs-and-genestealers-of-hive-secundus-painted-by-the-warhammer-studio/
>>93377268The Gav Thorpe curseSidenote I'm reading Valedor right now which is slightly better but I like how its idea of a planetary scale invasion is a dozen raiders with like 10-20 wyches eachWith numbers like these chapters being 1000 marines make sense
>>93377279>https://www.warhammer-community.com/2024/07/19/the-gangs-and-genestealers-of-hive-secundus-painted-by-the-warhammer-studio/good paint job but these models still look dumb as hell.
>>93377279Patrolling the Ash Wastes almost makes you wish for a nuclear winter.
>>93377279Black to neon highlights often looks good when it is pulled off.
When's the OP link going to have the new Codexes?
>>93377291mutations and deformities aside, I vastly prefer their poses and proportions to normal stealers, normal stealers are too humanoid, these at least try to look like xenomorphs
>>93377330
Didn't GW already make new genestealers a little while ago? Did I just imagine that?
>>93377322Nobody is scanning the new codices.>>93377337The new Purestrain Genestealers and the upcoming Malstrain Genestealers are different units made for different games.
>>93377337Nope, they got their refresh recently, and moved from 25mm to 32mm bases.It's just that different studios at GW don't communicate with each other at all
>>93377343I know. I just can't tell if they got updated or not.I guess the sprues look relatively new
>>93376542>BA Tier 1since when?
>>93377358Since Auspex Tactics said so into his 30 year old microphone and put it into a power point video
>>93377358always, space marine fags are just really fucking stupid. Its why you should never pay attention to their win rate.
>punk gang warfare?
>>93377337>Didn't GW already make new genestealers a little while ago?With the launch of 10th edition and the related Tyranids wave, yes
>>93377374Spyrers and Van Saar were always the high-tech groups.
>>93376542>Now have two tier 4 armies and a Tier 1 armyI know what I'm playing till the next balance pass

>>93377374We want the Infinity audience and injecting off-theme bullshit into our current niche skirmish game is less expensive than making a new one.
>>93376542>none of these AS far aheadNigga it don’t matter. CWE were catching nerfs while they were below 55.Prepare your anal cavities, this is just how we do things now.
>>93377411
>>93377291>but these models still look dumb as hell.Why?
>>93377374Its fucking kino af and totally inline with necromunda.
>>93377403Why do all of these look so retarded
>>93377432I guess necromunda players have always enjoyed eating shit
>>93377432
>>93377293Leave this one to me
ngl spyers look awesome but I just know they'd sit on my backlog and that money could go to another unit or two for my army
>>93373962Found a Guilliman from the imperium magazine and got it on a whimI dont play marines yet and I was going to start a BA/BA successor army with HH marines and I was thinking of turning Robute into a big ass sanguinorDoes anyone know of a good wing stl asset that I could attach to his back?
>>93377374Why can't actual 40K look like this?
>>93376332you're a special kind of stupid
>>93377550Those are not the nu kneepads. The nu Cadian designs also go far beyond just kneepads.Did you think people seethed over any kneepad? How embarrassing.
>>93377535Because this isn't a lady who fights on the battlefield, she's a flashy rogue who goes on adventures. You can run her in the rogue trader entourage though as an ally to any imperial army which might be much better once the imperial agents codex comes out.Rogue Trader armies, Navy armies, Inquisition armies... ah I'm so hyped.
What's the difference between edge and volumetric highlighting?
>>93377568>rogue trader entourageI wish it was more customizable, instead of just being the Kill team loadout with 0 options.If anything, a rogue trader and his/her crew should be the most customizable and varied unit possible
>>93377589edge is when you jerk off without cooming and volumetric highlighting is when you highlight based on the objects shape and lighting
>>93377616Honestly rogue trader/inquisitor squad should let you take a model of basically any infantry unit in the entire Imperium. From a preacher to a space marine.Will never happen because it would be a nightmare to balance™
>>93377625I think it'd be feasible if we still had unit costs per-model.Space marine is 15 points? Pay 20 points for a Space marine bodyguard in a Rogue Trader unitSister of battle for 10 points? Pay 13 points to have her alongside a Rogue Trader etc etc
>>93377589edge highlight is highlighting the edges to add definitionvolumetric lighting is highlighting surfaces as they would be hit by a light source, it's what you see people do for a lot of display piecesignore the clickbait sloptuber thumbnail it was the first image result
>>93377632Left marine is much more SOVLFUL than the right one
>>93377632This mf need to learn how to shave his face properly
>>93377632OK that makes sense, thanks anon. How is the volumetric highlighting normally achieved? If I could do that through stippling I'd be pretty happy. I've seen it a lot on bigger models but it usually looks like it was done with an airbrush >>93377624Nice
>>93377654>If I could do that through stippling I'd be pretty happyYou 100% can do that with stippling and it creates a really cool texture if you do so.
>>93377654any amount of ways to paint would for it, you can just stipple with lighter and lighter as would make sense, or you could do something like layering and glazing to get really smooth transitions like that thumbnail example
>>93377664>Try stippling >Make a messI hate being a retard I'll go back to my trillion glaze layers
>>93377664Fantastic I'll give it a try at some point>>93377665I'm yet to try glazing and feel like it would be much harder and take way longer, but it looks better than stippling I'm guessing
>>93377632Edge highlighting is not always meant to be a literal rays of light catching edges of something.A lot of organic substances are thinner and lighter towards the edges, just look at your nailsWhat I am trying to say is that it's not exclusively a lighting-focused technique in spite of the name>>93377330They're fantastical models but they definitely look less like xenomorphs than regular stealers, xenomorphs are very purposeful, streamlines and symmetrical, while these are pretty discordant. They're the Alien 4 human-morph to regular xeno what malstrains are to purestrains.The only thing I don't dig about malstrains are the huge ass spikes, those look like they wouldn't fit inside air shafts, which is quintessential for xenomorph-expies.
>>93377695They're more like The Thing than a Xenomorph, i think.But they're so fucking cool.
Eldar Exodites 2025
>>93377695>those look like they wouldn't fit inside air shaftI'd imagine that like codyceps fungus, which is what the spikes are obviously based on, that they're not a hard material and are actually fairly flexible
>>93377358Blangels and Furries have been doing really well. Death company marines and thunder wolf cavalry are some of the best units in the game. The problem is that the rest of the marine dex tends to be fairly meh. So if you aren’t running an deviant chapter you tend to got roflstomped if you don’t know what you’re doing.
>>93377497Sticking to one rules system is a great way to keep your pile of shame manageable. Specialist games a common trap for beginners to get sidetracked on
>>93377738Maybe I should filter every image I see so I only have to see new models.
>>93377770Sorry, I can only paint so fast. Those guys are third from the last and I didn’t take a pic of my scouts. The post model man didn’t specify new models. I figured I’d wait a week or two before posting my jump pack dudes again so here have the newest predator that I posted last thread.The scouts should be done sometime next week, then it’s Typhon or Mk3 armour Hellblaster time.
>>93377800I hate you and your earnestness/ childlike joy in the hobby.
>>93377770Are you really trying to make 40kg show less painted models. Even if you saw them before its better than another >how would x fair in 40k>Why is x so bad in the current edition>Why did gw do x in the lore instead of y>games workshop will die in x weeks >X black library book is gay/written by guys>new reveal bad>X army is for gays, y army is kino
>>93377809Now now, he was right to chastise me.
>>93377804You should let yourself have fun instead of being a miserable faggot all the time
>>93377817Probably. But it’s more fun to piss people off. One day I WILL get Sallyman to flip his shit.
>>93377809How does the same handful of samefags going "post models" and then seeing the same 5 models a 100 times enhance my 40kg experience? "Oh well you see I had to post them because someone asked!"Besides my filters affect only me.
>>93377828Be the change you want to see.
>>93377816He definitely was not in his right to be a cunt Sally anon. Any painted models are welcome in the thread, especially from you given your continuous work to keep painting stuff. Anyone who would rather see another thread of nothing but arguments over a thread full of painted models is brainrotted
>>93374899Even if it would lead to a better product, repackaging the old upgrade sprue instead of making a new sprue would be an optics nightmare.
>>93377809How would Sigmar fare in 40k?Why is internal balance so bad in current edition?Why did gw do nothing with Fulgrim lore instead of foreshadowing his returngames workshop will die in 104 weeksMost recent black library book is gay/written by guysnew reveal bad because there are no new revealsUnited States army is for gays, Ukrainian army is kino
>>93374208Considering getting some Cadians to paint as Rynnsguard to run alongside my Crimson Fists.
>>93377828Because this is a hobby about painting cool dudes first and foremost. And even if you've seen something you should be able to appreciate that someone else is putting content into the thread that isn't just another shitpost, baitpost, or pointless complaining
>>93377411Turned some attention to my wraith units, got a lot done on the spiritseer, pretty happy with my colour choices, I think he matches without completely blending in.Wraithguard will have white heads
Played against Dark Eldar last night with my Death Guard. They just have so much endless trash to run objective play and screening with and still manage to hit like fucking trucks. I could easily pick up anything I charged but then get wiped on the counter charge.The loss of PBC consistency has ruined this matchup that used to be an easy slam dunk.Still ended up close at the end but I could feel how behind I was all game.
>>93377738Sallyanne returnsTell you what, that cursive shit in the background is homo as fuck, just in csse you were looking for feedback
>>93377856I wish more eldar stuff had the kooky smooth facemask that the spiritseer has
>>93377872>returnsI never left. I’ve been here. Watching, reading, judging. You’re right about the cursive but I don’t tell my beloved what to do with decorating the kitchen. If it was up to me the house would have zero soul since I’m shit at interior design.
>>93377873Dark Eldar actually have quite a few of them I think
>>93377756>is a great way to keep your pile of shame manageable.Already way post that point but hey never too late to fix it.
>>93377898Nah basically only the pilots. GW employees just get to cheat for their projects when it comes to bits.
>>93377411Built a flamer guy. Four more and the squad is built, then I can start painting.
>>93377917maybe primaris aren't so bad after all
>>93377920If that’s what you like, I guess. I’m not a fan.

>>93378026I don't understand how you're still working on these, it feels like I've been seeing these for over two months now
When will warcom have news about 40k...
>>93378041NTA but sometimes life intervenes.I have some half painted squads myself I haven't been able to get back to in over a month because of travel/health
>>93378048What's the matter? Not excited about the "new" boarding actions game mode update?
>>93378041better than the orange and teal fag showing an unprogressed wip 5 months later
>>93377999Okey dokey.
>>93378041He always does this. His name is E- ACK
Lot of bitterposters today, huh?
>>93378072Always bitter all the time
>>93378041NTA, but if i posted my "progress" you'd see the same mini for half a year.Being busy and tired is a bitch
>>93377920Where do you see primaris parts there? The head?
>>93378076What the fuck
>>93378090Wrong train of thought. Try another.
>>93378090he's saying tortugaslop makes primaris look goodjust yet another larper pretending he owns or cares about the difference between firstborn and primaris models
>>93378090That head isn’t primaris. I got it from a Tactical Squad kit.
>>93378076Christ. So much effort, yet it looks so terrible.
>>93378072They hate us ‘cus they ain’t us. Model posters are are nice to see.
>>93378099You seem upset.
>>93378116tiresome seeing three faggots circlejerk over muh firstborn muh primaris day in and day out
>>93378117I just like firstborn, dude.
>>93376624Can't imagine how fucked my boy would have been
>>93378148I just want them to bring back Cortez.
>>93378061No i am not excited about that
>>93378076these guys look like fat cosplayers with tiny heads
>>93378184VGH they're truescale as all marines should be
>>93378041he's a nogame attention whore
>>93378076sorry, these look bad. Primaris had it about right with scale
>>93376637jesus christ what happened here?
>>93378076Those hazard stripes are fucking heinous. Combine that with poortuga gay bodies that makes these the worst looking marines in the thread lmao
>>93378202both of these look awful>>93378204that's not tortuga
>>93378187>chapter'sBong education at work
>>93378204Now this is.
>>93378204Those aren’t tortuga, seetheposter.
>>93378056Sure but you probably haven't been posting the same wip model pics for 60-90 days straight
>>93378076I can imagine the people at your local store half-heartedly going "Wow, so cool", holding back disgust as you excitedly put them on the table.
>>93378215I'd just like to point out that whenever you see this filename format it's the same guy shitposting 99% of the time.
>>93378215still looks better than >>93378026
>>93378210>>93378221All troonscale shit looks the same and is all dogshit
>>93378238didn't ask, brainrot-kun
>>93378230You pussies just can't handle TRUEscale
>>93378202>All those jump pack fins>A silencer on what's essentially a grenade launcher>Tacticus body but Phobos legs>That gay mask while his helm rests shamefully on his hip>Not just a tactical rock, but a tactical pillar
>>93378215>benposting in 2024This is definitely ass but still mogs all truescale trash because at least the base sculpt has not retarded proportions
>>93378243You don't need to ask, everyone already knows
>>93378238>primaris BAD>manlets BAD>anything else BADYou don’t enjoy anything lmao
I will not have you losers badmouth Shrike
>>93378202They got the characters noone cares about out of the way early in the primaris pipeline and it shows
>>93378282Some were pretty good
>>93378270I don't hate primaris or manlets. I do hate bad conversions that lead to wack proportions though
>>93378292Not much of a yiffer but Ragnar's probably one of the best upgrades
>>93378292This is just a normal intercessor with a big belt buckle, a cape, and a bird
>>93378303>complains about proportions>but likes ill-proportioned manletsConsistency is important, buddy.
>>93378307>topknot
>>93378334top knots are top notch
>>93378330Numanlets pretty sweet and properly proportioned, I do agree the old squatting guys look pretty retarded though
>>93378354
I thank the God-Emperor every day that I was not born a Space Marine player.
Fuck primaris lol gay fag loser
>>93378292except one little thing HES NOT ON A FUCKING BIKE
>>93378384I’m beginning to regret my choice.
>>93378398they didn't exist yet lol
>>93378316>this marine is just a marine + additionswow
>>93378357>and properly proportionedTheir thighs are overly long and they have too short torsos.Primaris over all have the better proportions and the better size.It's what all marines should have been upgraded into model wise. Yes, even chaos marines and all firstborn.
Might be due for a new bread
>>93378398>>93378409Kor'sarro was always a footslogger character.
>>93378307That’s a pretty good werewolf in human form face. They’re getting better at the subtle wolf thing.
>>93378407don't, marines reign supreme and anything to the contrary is just inferior seethe
>>93378422I hadn’t noticed how long the thighs are until now, jeez. Femurs? More like threemurs lmao.
>>93378455He had rules for a bike and conversions were encouraged
>>93378471I mean I’m not going to abandon my project, I just regret that I chose the armor autism faction when I post here.
>>93378235I don’t think so.
>>93378478>but muh rulesThose don't matter, especially if they don't have an accompaning model.
I can't believe I bought snaggas and squighog boyz, I feel sick for falling for the sniggers meme
https://www.warhammer-community.com/2024/07/19/weta-workshop-unleash-the-despoiler-in-all-his-diabolical-glory/
>>93378487every army is the armor autism factionlook at the retard seething about kneepads on new IG modelslook at every eldarfag seething about identical models in range refreshes
>>93378498I'll give you 50 bucks for it
>>93378488well, you're simply wrong and retarded
>>93378499I've never seen ork players complain about armor designI've never seen GSC players complain about armor design
>>93378499I legit thought the kneepads on the new cadians thing was a meme.
>>93378499>every army is the armor autism factionlolno
>>93378498Let me guess, this giant hunk of junk will cost like 2000 USD, wont it?
>>93378461Yea, he's really ho-- I mean badass
>>93378514literally 5 posts above you is an ork player complaining about armor designGSC complain about ONLY having mining equipment and brood brothers>>93378519higher up in this very thread is one melting about the new marine game having "old" cadians>>93378522didn't ask for your cope
>>93378519It is a meme.A meme as in that low skill autists throw a thread long fit over it.
>>93378514some new ork fans don't like meganobs for some reason
>>93378539>literally 5 posts above you is an ork player complaining about armor designOh so you think literally everything about a model is armor design, cool.
>>93378499We are immune from such faithless discourse do not ask about the Paragon legs
>>93378549whining about an ork having fur trim and tribal tats is the same as somebody melting down about a marine's helmet looking different
>>93378510I’m guessing yours is the green marine.
>>93378499I like how eldarfags get to be plural but IG fans are just a singular boogeyman. >I'm not invested in this thing so it all looks the same to me, I'm so mad about people complaining!Fuck off, no one asked you.
>>93378539>didn't ask for your copeDidn't ask for wildly incorrect statements but you gave one anyway
>>93378556can I ask about repentia attire?
>>93378558I'm sorry that you are schizophrenic and seeing statements that don't exist, anon!
>>93378560you didn't need to announce yourself like this lmao
>Orkish armor autismReal tuff ladz don’t even wear armor.
>>93378539>higher up in this very thread is one melting about the new marine game having "old" cadiansThe game literally uses the old Cadian designs, anon. I don't know what to tell you.
>>93378565Fuck!!!
Somebody seems upset.
>>93378580explain the kneepads on the guardsmen then :^)
>>93378576Doesn’t even look out of place. Orkz are the best for kitbashes and conversions.
>>93378560there's a reason why IGfags are number 2 on the whiny tierlist just under eldarfags and you're displaying it perfectly
>>93378589Some of the old cadians had kneepads to show heavier armor. it's also lifted from kasrkin for visual variety in a video game.They look absolutely nothing like nu Cadian designs. They even have straps holding them in place.
>>93378605crazy how they ONLY have the kneepads like the nu models and none of the shin/thigh armor then
>>93378588>IMG_4379
>>93376542>Drukhari tier 1>Aeldari tier 3Wow. For the longest time I remember Aeldari being undisputed top tier while Drukhari being squishy dogshit. How things change.
>>93378409>>93378455ITS NOT RIGHTMUH FLUFF REEEEEEE
>>93378593I should take a break from marines and focus more on my caveman orks. They’re so fucking retarded, I love them.
>>93378526You won't pay for the Warmaster but you will certainly pay for Celestine, won't you, waifufag?
>>93378616Drukhari are the older ones though and the eldar are the students.
>>93378270All types of space marines are for man children... Except one.
>>93378621>things can only ever reach the heights they're already reached>things can never improveWhy are warhammer players like this? Clearly the White Scars character should be on a bike
>>93378641>you don't like this over priced hunk of junk>it totally means you will buy this other over priced hunk of junkNo.
>>93378616Why do you care about Auscuck's opinion?
>>93378641Celestine is WONDERFUL AND PURE and if I didn't get her model my Greyfax would be lonely, okay?
>>93378654>Clearly the White Scars character should be on a bikeNo. He was always a footslogger.>but muh rulesI don't care.
>>93378616Didn't play much 9th edition did you? True, DEldar were midtier at best for most of the games history but the 9E codex was fucking cracked in like three different ways and they had to be nerfed three times to get below a 70% winrate.Also they're not as crazy as they seem right now in 10th because they are still a very difficult and tactical army to play effectively, but they definitely have a very high skill ceiling right now.
>>93378624For sure. Post more when you do them later.
>>93378641Why else would I buy big overpriced figures?
>>93376950>>93376967>>93377012tbf this is Kristos. The marine malevolant who impersonates an iron hand. This guy is the reason IH are the way they are.
>>93378539>>93378558Hey hey hey I'm complaining that I feel like I was forced to grt snaggas for anti tank / monster nonsense, I'm not having a sook about their model design, I don't mind them desu (although there'd a bit too much going on with thr beastboss)
>>93378499I'm so hyped about the direction of the Eldar refresh.the right balance of sleekness and decoration, we have things like the ornate new avatar, but also the simple and perfect guardian refresh.More organic-looking bone armor would have been so shit and also invalidated the good plastics we already had (wave serpent, wraiths etc).The fact that I can run my old guardians beside the new and no one would notice is great
>>93378686She is bare feet'ed.
>>93378542I found one part of the kit that didn't fit properly and had to file down something but other than that they are far better than the old metal ones
>>93378734I wish
>>93378682I will. The snag I’m hitting is what to do for Nobz and a Warboss. I was thinking of using the current models for both and just painting their clothes as buckskin, make them look a step higher than the boyz they lead.
>>93378384I know down the line I'll gather a 1000 points casual Raven Guard army because I like the Phobos Army and the Vanguard Detachment.
>>93378737VGH camisole...
>>93378737>Modern technology allows for better sculptsWoah...
>>93378560IG fags just can't help but respond to every post criticizing their boring sperg army
>>93378384Give me Frateris Militia NOW.
>>93378746I think I'd probably end up doing CSM over Space Marines, even if both are pretty far down my list. I just don't find any of the loyalists particularly appealing. Maybe BT. Raven Guard have a great color scheme, I have to say.
>>93378745>The snag I’m hitting is what to do for Nobz and a Warbossironjaws and gorgers
>>93378560There can't be multiple Eldar fags because I am all of them and single handedly responsible for making Eldar 6% of GW's total sales.
>>93378775Vandire lost. The temple will not rise again. Cope.
>>93378799To be fair there's a sizable population of tourists who buy eldar whenever they're the best army in the game again(every other month)
>>93378775You're preaching to the choir, brother. I don't dare hope for new crusaders/frateris in the Imperial Agents army.
>>93378779>I like this black and white chapter>but I could also be tempted to paint this other black and white chapterWhy don't you just pick the sculpts you like and paint them in a black and white scheme, it sounds like you already have an idea on colours you like
>>93378768Passive aggressive.
>>93378824I don't like Marines really, that was my original post.
>>93378737Now if only the upgrade kit on the left had as many things as the one on the right.
>>93378745I agree with the IJ from aos suggestion. They’re beefy boys and the underworlds ones don’t even have chest armour.
>>93378799>6% of gw salesLmao you fucking wish dude
>>93378813>>93378775We have been over this.Frateris Militia are not permanent armies aka standing armies. By mandate of the Inquisition and the High Lords of Terra all Frateris Militia are to be disbanded at the end of each war.Failure to do so would result in dire consequences.
>>93378076Haters gonna hate, I think they look cool
>>93378864This anon gets it.
>>93378786I don’t know why I was under the impression that the Ironjaw megaboss had been axed, but he’s perfect. Those madlads riding giant boars are great too.
>>93378775>Give me Frateris Militia NOW.???
>>93378334>t. bald 30 year old virgin
>>93378614Anon, I... >>93376332
>>93378845I buy all the Dark Eldar and the Craftworld Eldar and the Harlequins/Corsairs/Ynnari and all their kill teams. I am 5.5% of the player base.
>>93378894>my highly armored super soldier is the same as a bunch of scraggly peasants willing to die as a canon fodder for the sisters.Frateris Militia are temprorary forces of volunteers organized for Wars of Faith, and a common part of sisters armies in lore
>>93378961>buy cawdor gang>run with voidsmen rules>?
>>93378737>right>stuff you can see from across the table>left>shit that look pretty on the store page but becomes meaningless blur at arms length
>>93378894https://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Frateris_Militia
>>93378845>admech so expensive that they clock 3% for an army no one playsimpressive!
>>93379018Could also run them as crusaders, you can have 2 units of 6 I think.
>>93379047Those are player rates, not sales. AdMech are obviously at least 20% of their income at those prices.
>>93378514Snagga armor design isn't for me but I'm not one of the paranoid idiots who thinks it's "replacing" the normal Ork aesthetic because my brain is capable of focusing on more than one thing at a time and thus I am able to recall that the snagga release was accompanied by an only slightly smaller number of Ork kits with the typical design on full display.I fucking abhor Ironjawz aesthetic with some very fringe cases, though, I absolutely hate that they did away with the brutal-but-functional armor design of Fantasy for the actual garbage of Ironjawz.
>>93378922post your eldar then
>>93379037>lazy lower detail sculpt actually... goodthe power of the contrarian mind is truly staggering sometimes
>>93379149>>93379149>>93379149New thread since we hit image cap and all that
>>93376148DW should be an ally unit for any imperial faction
>>93379214I'm surprised GW hasn't already opened that can of worms so they can sell marines to every army
>>93379110I would but we are at image cap. Just Google Eldar models. First result. Any results. They're all mine, as the only Eldar collector.
>>93376452it's a primaris arm. If you have any sitting around you can decide for yourself if you think it's too small
