>TQobviously its going to be something chaos related. Maybe GSC cab give the contender a run for its money.
>>93418698>TQWhy, the last one to get updated of course. Because newer is better and newest must be best.
Thoughts on the new space marine 2 leaks? Normally hate space marines but this game looks pretty good so far.
Orks is best, because everyone's models are their models too.
RELEASE HIM
>>93418724I dont really care.
>>93418724Looks great, it will be a banger. Nothing controversial about it.
Post what you're working on.I'm cleaning up the flash on these shitty material models.And building some wraithguard.
You know Dark Eldar must have some good models because literally no one wants to see them get updates. ;^)
>TQObviously Eldar and I'll prove it to you with facts and logic.>Old good>New bad>Therefore whoever has the most oldest, still active, models therefore has a the best models
New painter here, first time doing a Necron. Should I stick to Nuln Oil for shading or should I use something like Drakenhof Nightshade?
>>93418734>Not caring about SPACE MARINES.Then why are you here silly anon?
>>93418698Black Templar
>>93418724Video games are for nomodels secondaries
>>93418724Looks cool. Saw some of it on bilibili, which is apparently the only place protected from dmca threats. Didn’t realize there was such a big following in China, but regardless, the game does seem to play pretty well. Story isn’t completely retarded either, though that’s only from the cutscenes I’ve watched. I’ll probably pick it up when it gets properly released.
>>93418698>TQThose old JD daemonettes were pretty dope. I feel like James really can't make anything semi-close to an attractive female face sculpt at all, so they went with a "nooo they're supposed to look like that" angle.
>>93418785the tecchmarine could have used some more liberties. Also is Grimaldus a primaris muhrine now.
>>93418785I’m starting to think something happened to GW designers within the last year or so, because 40k designs genuinely suck more often than not now. The Inquisitor is only the most recent in a long line of disappointments.>>93418754At this point, you better pray that an AoS designer takes care of warp spiders.
>>93418761Nuln oil works well for grey and dark grey.
Man I sure wish GW did share the artists
>>93418785damn i wanna collect black templar now, but i already collect Dkok, will people think im a nazi?
>>93418761Do you want him to be bland? Or have an interesting blue hue?
>>93418836Ben, samefag less.
>>93418831Honestly they made the right call to hide that information. Too easy to start a witch hunt otherwise, although there’s a certain irony in doing so when it comes to the Coteaz model.
>>93418840i don't who youre stupid fucking tripfags are you pathetic fuck
>>93418785It's so hard to make black coloured minis look awesome at a tabletop level in normal room lighting unfortunately, it kind of turns me away from black even though they are so cool
>>93418853Ben spotted
>>93418747I happened upon pieces of Pedro over the years and eventually got an arm to complete him
>>93418836Yeah, but what the fuck do you care
>>93418837I was leaning Drakenhof but I wasn't sure if it would muck it up. My intent is an arctic themed minor necron dynasty on a frozen shithole of a planet who have modified their weaponry to use magma and fire so that they don't freeze solid and can easily cut through the constantly reforming ice encasing the planet.
>>93418831>Artist behind well-loved malstrain sculpts proudly explains his thought process and shares concept art on instagram>Radio silence on CoteazHmmmm
>>93418875being a guy who started around 2nd-3rd edition, I abhor special characters in regular sized games. Pedro gets a pass though because he's cooler than most the setting
>>93418916Tbf it’s only been a day. Give it some time, I’m sure they’ll have an interview with the designer as filler content.
lol so are Rhinos just not in this game anymore?
>>93418928Sistas are doing it for themselves
>>93418785>faithful SOVLful recreations vs lazy cadslop smegmar soicast
>>93418928They’re still around, what are you talking about? Granted, they insisted on giving it a primaris restriction, but it’s still got rules. Other factions still have their versions too, like SoB and GK.
>>93418875heh
>>93418789>Be no models secondary. Learn about hobby via youtube and internet forums like a complete stereotype.>Play vidya related to 40k and fantasy for years spending a fraction of the cost to play conventional tabletop.>Discover ma and pa gameshop in my rural town.>Love the setting so much I cave and get a new army.>Pay easily over 500 dollars for the models alone.>Pay 50 bucks for an 8th edition codex and cards.>Paint them in my favorite scheme.>Play My first game. Get stomped by WAACfag with unpainted models>Keep playing Keep getting stomped.>Waacfags keep breathing down my neck telling me I need xyz in my army. Learn very quickly that the entire game is basically won before the game and the only strategy left is listbuilding that looks nothing like any of the art of the setting depicts.>Gamestore starts charging me "dues" because even though I bought the products from the store, I still need to pay for playing too.>Now just stick to the videogames and shitposting on 4chan commenting on what models look cool.Technically have a fully painted army. What's it called when a secondary actually plays, but hates it and wants to return to his secondary status?
>>93418964>yo dawg heard you like bases
>>93418911>>93418761kino. you are on the path, but obviously some little things could take your model a long way. look up videos on osl and edge highlighting and do an almost pure white on the blade of the halberd. I think even a novice could pull it off this color scheme is very forgiving. Also paint the eyes a really pure white to make them pop and give him a ghostly look. Welcome to the hobby anon I also started this year.
>>93418928they are literally the most important piece for any chaos army.
>>93418928For Space Marines? No.For CSM, sisters, gray knights, agents of the imperium? Yes, they are S tier to A tier.
>>93418966If my LGS started charging me to play after buying a whole army there I would piss on their counter.
>>93419015anon bought the army 4 years ago. the rent needs to be paid.
>>93418747Finished my Neurolictor the other day, back to my remaining Leapers, then a Lictor and I'm done with sneaky bugs for now.
>>93419015a lot of wargame and TCG players treat their LGSs like adult daycare and will stay for hours without spending a dime businesses gotta pay their bills somehow
>>93418747Finally had a moment to put paint down. Hopefully it’ll keep me drawn into it for a bit. Felt a bit of fatigue after I finished my predator a while ago.
>>93419039Yes, but I was assuming the fees occurred soon after he began playing. He probably was mooching and stealing wifi from them though so really who is the villain here.
>>93419076Well, we ARE playing with tiny action figures.
>>93419080What chapter are these bad boys?
>>93418724What's the overall plot?
>>93419112Mine. But it’s easier to say salamanders. With a smidge of BT drip.
>>93419165Sallymandias, King of Kings
>>93419172bane of orange and teal slopmeisters the world round
>>93419181Nah they’re more technically proficient. I’m just a shitposter with a plastic canvas and more reach than grasp.
>>93419092It was after my 4th or 5th game they started charging me.My point is that there was very little keeping me playing the traditional tabletop to begin with. Th e expenses get too high. The reality is that 40k is a shit game, with shit prices, with a majority shit IRL players, with a really good setting.>>93419092>>93419076Oh yes I spend money for paints and models and basically all my hobby needs on my lgs to support them, but if I DARE TO USE MY PHONE TO STEEEEEEEEEEAL THE PRECIOUS MB OF DATA to use the battlescribe app to play the game you sell me. I MUST BE PUNISHED! I AM A LOWLY LEACH! I don't think they even had public wifi there lol. Im pretty sure I had to use data.>>93419126Something something tyranids something something space marines something something shoot shoot boom boob slash slash stab stab.
>>93418747This little guy for necromunda.
>>93418698>armageddon editionniceI'm updating the paintjobs on some old stormtroopers to stand in for scions. What are you all working on?
>>93418747Really trying to up my game with this GUO. Lots of layers of highlights and I keep finding tiny details (boils, pustules, tentacles) that I missed on my first few passes.
>>93419195Got dang it. Forgot the pic
>>93419200Maybe do some gloss around the mouth to make it slimy?
>>93419202Looks like a gingerbreadbug
>>93419181I like how you schizos keep trying to incite hate between these two but they've only ever praised one another lmao
>>93419192>Something something tyranids something something space marines something something shoot shoot boom boob slash slash stab stab.You're forgetting TSons somewhere in there
>>93419189Are you going to add that brighter red to the rest of the marines? I've always kept my mouth shut since they're not my guys, but I had been hoping you were going to brighten them up at some point.
>>93419243I think that's just a multiplayer thing m8. I did see a rubric marine in there somewhere, but I don't know know if they're going to be in the main campaign.Looking at it it reminds me of the old transformers cybertron titles. Now those were good games...
>>93419212Yeah might do, not sure yet tho I usually don't like most effects like that.
>>93419257they showed titus fighting a bunch of tzaangors and a lord of change in one of those choppy trailers
>>93419248That’s just mephiston red without a wash and some highlights. I tend to darken it a bit on smaller dudes with washes cus I like them grimier. But I’ve been trying to lighten stuff. I’m just shit at blending.
>>93419265>Mephiston RedGood choice, I prefer Khorne Red myself. Gives me a nice shade of Burgundy, and makes the gold trims stand out more
>>93418966>What's it called when a secondary actually plays, but hates it and wants to return to his secondary statusMental weakness
Question for the /yourdudes/ guys in the thread:What program would you use to create a custom chapter logo? I was thinking of using something like Krita, then making a 3D-printable cutout of the logo so I can just paint and/or glue it onto the marines.
>>93419200The highlights are looking good! I'd suggest adding some colour variation around blemishes boils etc like some pinkish/red tone over the green
>>93419265Eh, I don't really do much in the way of blending myself, but I do red base -> wash black -> same red base to clean up while leaving "shaded" areas where a game engine would leave ambient occlusion lighting -> small amount of layer highlighting (you'd use evil sunz) that again would respect game engine ambient occlusion. The layer highlighting is just done with a little extra water in the mix; it'll look kinda crappy when you first apply it, but after a couple layers you'll see the highlight come out brighter and with minimal stepping.
>>93418747Working on a gun champion
>>93419300Unironically photoshop and some patience.
>>93418747Think I've had my fan, gonna start mass painting my orks soon in goffs colours
>>93418836>they'll say I play le Nazis! Stop playing with faggots.
>>93419320Fun*
>>93419300Never really thought about doing one, they're just another warband under the banner of the Death Guard in the end.
I do not care for chaos, it insists upon itself.
>>93418724>Normally hate space marinesno you don't you lying cuck
>>93418822>you better pray that an AoS designer takes care of warp spidersAoS has the most disgusting elf models ever made, anon. Are you unwell?
>>93419335Primaris are for gay ass losers anon
>>93419345Fully agree, but primaris aren't space marines
>>93418966Kill Team is literally made for you.
what are the next codexs god damn just tell me
>>93418836>but i already collect Dkok, will people think im a nazi?If your friend group is going to accuse you of being a nazi based on what armies you like, then you need better friends
>>93419320Beautiful blue ork, anon. Shame you're going for goffs now. Good luck on your painting regardless
>>93419370True. My friend does call me a nazi when I fawn over the Arbites, but that's all in good fun.
>>93418747No 40k this week. I worked on these bad boys all of last week and I got some more ghouls to finish up. Won my first game of spearhead with them!
>>93419372If that's an inside joke, then fair enough.But if they, or anyone else for that matter, start saying you like the funny 1930's german man because of what army you like, I would suggest going literally anywhere else.Or bonk them over the head if leaving is not an option for whatver reason.
>>93419300I used bing AI and then recreated that in clip studio and have a friend who's got a laser printer make me transfer sheets
>>93419345>>93419351post your firstborn armies
>>93418747Just finished building them, it's crazy to think when I built the first set I actually kind of struggled (it was 3-4 years ago) and now building is a breeze and I thank Tamiya extra thin cement.The silver lining was the first set I used super glue, so I ripped their arms off because I want a wraithcannon block
>>93418728I can't imagine buying a space marine character model and not just kitbashing one from the regular troops and some extra bits.
Auspex Tactics is shit
>>93419435If I had the parts, I would take a PSM captain and start kitbashing him to be far more of a Knight Commander looking dude. Complete with helm and cape.What can I say? I like Space Knights.
>tfw half your army selection is resinHow bad is resin really?
>>93419453if it's not finecast or forgeworld it's fine, the only downside is plastic glue makes removing gaps much easier
>>93419359Id play killteam if you could grab some random units and make a list with it rather than some pre selected composition.
>>93419458Forge World resin is fine you're just retarded
>>93419372Tbf I did have fun painting them but I think my heart is set on being a goffs man
>>93419453Which army is half resin? Custodes?
>>93419449>If I had the partsI don't know what PSM is, but you should look into bits stores like Bitzbox or bitsandkits.If you have a spare space marine body, you can easily get enough bits to make a convincing captain/lieutenant/whatever for like 2-3 extra pounds by buying some other kits cape, fancy helmet from some upgrade sprue and appropriate weaponsSpace marines are very easy to kitbash due to pretty much all of their stuff being interchangeable
probably knights
>>93418836if you don't actively seethe with resentment at your parents or your flag then you might as well play DKOK and black templars with some '40s symbols painted on anon>t. I EXCLUSIVELY play World Eaters in Boarding Action btw
>>93419482Custodes.
>>93419478it isn't, it's brittle outdated dogshit and they never replace their molds so anything that isn't brand new is going to have smashed ruined detailsnot to mention they don't even turn on aliasing for the molds they use so you get stairstepping on fucking cast resin models
>>93419453Your army is getting squatted next edition then.Or the resin shit gets replaced. 50/50
>>93419469Play killteam 1st edition (elites). I used to play it regularly it's pretty fun and what you described.It was really good for kitbashing and making /yourdudes/Current edition KT is more focused on competitive balance and being a distinct game from 40k
>>93418747Sculpting tubes for my assault veterans. The sculpts on those fire dragons are so good, I hope they dont fuck them up in the plastic transition.
>>93419488Nah, knights only have a few resin kits. One of them is 600 USD which is fucking ridiculous, but what can you do
>>93419515you don't want to pay the price of 4 combat patrols for a bunch of warped shitty resin that you'll have to spend hours using a palm sander on before you can even assemble the model?
>>93419513They've done pretty well with the other aspect warriors, we'll get a cool little shrine too.I even like the dark reapers, I'm not going to lie
>>93419517I just don't want cancer
>>93418920I do make an exception for and am a fan of the 'little' special characters.
>>93419335When I see a game that's just ultramarine primaris porn I sleep. When I'm allowed to play multiple unique chapters like iron hands or world eaters and actually get some fucking variety my ears perk up.>>93419359Y'think so? I do have those acolyte campaing files just sitting in my hardrive..... maybe....>>93419453It's a pain in the ass to assemble and you might get some flaws in the model.
>>93419515That's the Porphyrion, one of my buddies prints them off for the equivalent of $250 USD. I kind of want one for 30k but it's too absurdly large
>>93419539>PorphyrionThat's the motherfucker that really makes me wonder about where the knights end and titans begin
>>93419369Real question anon: Why do want a new codex?>point values changed so your whole list needs a revamp>shoots you $50.99 just to play current edition and invalidate the old $50 purchase.>Best case scenario boosts some stats worst case scenario it nerfs them.>You MUST use the most recent codex in tournament settings.Shit dude I hated when a new codex was around the corner because now I had to basically start from scratch with my list building.
>>93419487PSM is just Primaris Space Marines.
>>93419581Oh, i thought it was like an acronym for woman's period, seemed weird in the context of being a captain.My point still stands. Especially considering that how bland many primaris characters are, kitbashing them is easy and a lot lot cheaper than buying GW's single character for like 30 pounds
More like primaris gay marines amirite lmao
There should be primaris Eldar that are even bigger than regular Eldar
>>93419592There have always been eldar custodes.
>>93418983>advice animals meme from 2006Isn't it past your expiry date grandpa
>>93418748Def not the kabalite model those look perfect
>>93419108>tiny action figuresDolls, they're dolls anon
>>93419359>>93419469>>93419534Modern Kill Team is even worse than modern 40k.
whats up with warhammer youtubers trying to sell lewd art as merch. Half of their audience base is composed of children.
>>93419647keep saying it it'll be true eventually bro
Woman here. I got into 40k early this year. I've read 20 BL books so far. It's bad. I have a list of recommendations on how to make Warhammer good. Minimal explanation, think carefully enough and you will understand my superior intelligence.1. Shift focus of books and narrarive from the walking trashcans to humans & xenos. Actually develop xenos properly.2. No female astartes. No female custodes. No female primarchs. Wanting to put women in those groups is like wanting to put women in gay porn jfc3. Make all primarchs twinks4. Scrap the sitcom "everything resets itself" formula for all the recent books. Make them less T rated and more wet and filthy like the old stuff.5. BL has gotten stagnant af, which is what happens when you only hire writers from a single metal pub in Nottingham. Nothing against that, but there are perfectly good metal pubs in other countries too. It's no coincidence that the two freshest voices in all of BL - ADB and Fehervari - are half-Polish and Hungarian respectively.6. Release non-ugly models for once7. Make Fulgrim into a Broadway musical
>>93419599The nigger nurses in my retirement home beat me, poison my food, and keep me trapped, but I am smart and have the power of dementia on my side.>>93419647Well the origianl anon mentioned 1st edition so I was going to look into that. Not modern KT
>>93419675>Woman here.Post Nid army with timestamp. Also your breasts.
>>93419675I dont care but you shouldnt get into 40k anymore than you already have.
>>93419650Who do you think wants to buy lewd merch?
>>93419675>ADB and FehervariThey were both raised in the UK and are functionally bongs. Unless you are stating that eastern europeans contain some genetic element that makes them superior writers you are wrong about them. They're also generally inferior writers to guys like Dan Abnett or Robert Rath. You are dumb and horny and one year is way too short a period of time to evaluate something as huge and byzantine as 40k.
>>93419675Dios mios, mucho texto autismo
93419675(you)
>>93419559Thos thing looks like ass compared to the real deal
I dont play orks but I see an amazing orky kitbash of this and I want to do it as a hobby project but I have actual battleline to paint.
>>93419675>how to make Warhammer goodStopped reading there, terrible idea
>>93419699Abnett is a pulp writer and extremely unremarkable, not read any Rath. If you read serious books you'd know ADB and Fehervari are superior. And no it's cultural exposure via family rather than DNA that makes them more interesting.
How you holding up Guard bros?
>>93419729>If you read serious books you'd know ADB and Fehervari are superior. Almost got me ngl.
>>93419675>Woman here. Tits or gtfo.

>>93419699>eastern europeans contain some genetic element that makes them superior writersObjectively correct
>bought a 3rd party model a while ago>it finally turns up today>was meant to be a leader of a squad, but the model is far bigger than i expected and the base is 40 mm instead of 32i could change the base out but it overhangs a fair bit and just looks awkward
>>93419699>>93419764Superior writing is caused by experiencing hardship. If a writer never struggled with some proper shit situations he's not gonna write anything insightful.Considering how shit life is in Eastern Europe, I'm inclined to agree with anon.
>>93419782>Considering how shit life is in Eastern Europeam eastern european, can confirm.
>>93419749I follow and read at least 1-2 books from the Booker & International Booker shortlists each year, what about you, anon
>>93419787You don't need to tell us the world already knows whatever Slavic shithole you come from is garbage
>>93419798at least we don't have random nigger refugees raping our women every day
>>93419802The fact that even the poorest dumbest people in the world don't want to come to your countries is a red flag
>>93419774Why would you pay money for 3rd party cadslop
>>93419774Just flex your pecs at people who give you shit
>>93419790Well, I read 3-4 books from the Booker & International Booker shortlists each year myself, and ADB is pure garbage. Never read Fehervari, so can't comment on his stuff.
>>93419811They just don't want to go to Soviet bloc countries. The Balkans don't like them either, but it's friendlier there and they absolutely go there
>>93418747Finished up this little guy. I hate batch painting but it just makes so much sense when doing votann. Manlets rise up
>>93419650Anon, listen. If Games Workshop won't give me my Big Titty Sister of Battle GF, then I'll just find the based sonuvabitch who will.
>>93419844This art is fucking awful. I sure hope you don't beat your meat to this shit
>>93419838Where's the light blue?
>>93419774Show me
>>93419857What?
>>93419729>Abnett is a pulp writerYes, all BL is pulp. Pulp isn't even a slur term and hasn't been since Lovecraft or Howard. There is absolutely no correlation between good writing and familial connection to Eastern Europe. Get a grip.
>>93419866You painted a miniature from a trans faction in pink and white, but forgot to use the last color of the trans pride flag.
>>93419857I'm not sure if I wanna leave the underlining for just the big dudes and sgts just pink and purple for the regular guys I think. Help separate them
>>93419876What the fuck are you talking about?

>>93419724>>93419894Orks already have that model
>>93419892I like fat tits as much as the next guy, I just have good taste and prefer that they don't look like they're drawn for a children's cartoon
>>93419878>>93419884>>93419893Really aggressive responses to an innocent joke there, trooners.
>>93419909>aggressiveI simply informed you your joke didn't land
>>93419909Dude, we're all looking at a space dwarf and you jump in with "so trannies amirite fellow children?" and then you blame us for being weirdos? Fuck off you balloon animal.
>>93419907Yea, I love those but this model is actually terrifying and awesome. Green stuff some orky teef on the mouth and I think I would pose the left arm that's grabbing the concrete in the air like hes going to throw a brick at you. I just love the proportions and running pose on this thing.
>>93419724Consider punctuation
>>93419918Every pissed off response you give him makes him look more and more correct in calling out a tranny.

Shut up and pay your rent.
Why arent drukhari more popular (outside of 9th edition)?
>>93419894What is this from? Looks like it could be a cool Votann model
>>93419953Aren't they really trash outside of 9th ed?

Give me a new road map, GW. Where the fuck are we going next?!

This datasheet with army rules is going to be amazing. I wonder if Daemonhosts will be squatted, considering Inquisitors grant a 6++ now that nerfs the Daemonhost. If they move it to a 4++ this unit is going to be great. I cannot wait to see the full codex, this army looks so fun.Also the henchmen kit is incredibly fun to paint and build and I wouldn't mind building 2 more.
>>93419742Got best in faction at a tournament this past weekend, got a fancy little trophy thing too. First time I've ever won anything in my life so I was pretty excited.
>>93420045I'm more tempted on the idea of building a full arbites army.
>>93420043he said eldar, not custodes.
>>93419811It's because we actually punish them for their crimes instead of letting them go without even a slap on the wrist "because they don't know that rape is illegal"
Would a be asked to leave a GW tournament if I showed up with an entire Custodes army thats harlequins models counts as. Auric Champions feels like it would fit a Harlequins army perfectly. Custodes even have Jetbikes.
>>93420086>"What is this? A Bolt Gun for ants?"
>>93420042Yeah, it's a genuinely terrible model.You want a good looking CSM Jump Lord? Get a basic bitch Legionnaire, give him a Jump Pack from the warptalons and you're fucking done.

>>93419860its this guy. just got it as i thought it looked decent and needed a nob with a power klaw, little did i realise it was more an alternate model for the recently squatted zagstruk as stormboy warbosses dont exist. given that ive just put together a few stormboyz, this guy is closer to the ground and the size difference doesnt seem too extreme. never put a resin model together though, am i meant to do something like wash it in soapy water?>>93419817silence>>93419821it shouldnt be an issue but if i use a 32 mm base the back foot overhangs a lot. i know people complain if you're playing a unit thats supposed to have bigger bases (boyz for example) but what do they think when the base is too big than usual?

Space Marines are weird because they're easy to paint to a basic degree but hard to paint to a high standard.
>>93420045As much as I wish there was more rogue trader stuff, I agree. I remember one of the Eisenhorn books he takes like a small army of blanks against some cultists. I think the only thing that would stop me from building the henchmen would be if there were scion rules. a 16 man goonsquad surrounding inquisitors while DS scions and GK terminators would be nice.
>>93420359I think that goes for nearly every Citadel model.
>>93420359Anon, that's all models.
>>93420359Nah you're right, it's the large smooth curved surfaces. They're a bitch to get a good gradient on with all of it going in the right direction. Models with lots of topography are easier to shade and pick out detail on, you're able to break it down into its component shapes.
>>93419675based
>>93420359>tfw seeing space marines painted with contrast / speedpaints
>>93420419Yeah, they are the perfect example to not use contrast paints in flat surfaces.
>>93420419>>93420421The black is one major drybrush, one highlight drybrush, then contrast black.
>>93420257Du ma, get that shit renewed uncle
Can you mix edge highlights with volumetric ones or do i have to pick one?
What basing looks good with dark minis like dark angels and drukhari black heart?
>>93420451I think the post at >>93420430 proves you can do both. Just takes a lot of work.Are you making a Kill team?
>>93420451yes
>>93420430No manual highlights on the black at all?

>>93420468I mean no offence here. I think your time would be better spent asking in WIP.I just searched "volumetric lighting miniatures" and all I got was what look like clickbait youtuber videos so I don't know how to help you there."I also dont own an airbrush." I don't think it is necessary, but can save a lot of time.
>>93420478This. Try WIP
https://youtu.be/X8aPNDlGYAY?feature=shared
Are there any 40k novels about regret?
>>93420451Of course, they're both just techniques to reflect how light behaves on surfaces. Here's an example by Richard Gray.
>>93420492when's the next fat chick thread?
>>93420492BetrayerFabius bile manflayerFor fantasy any gotrek novel
>>93420468You have to pick your light source. You can have multiple, with different tones and luminosity. Your volumetric shading has to be consistent with the direction and proximity of the light source. Top down is popular because it's intuitive (higher = brighter, lower = darker) and hits the 360 of the model evenly. You could also do a strong primary light on the golden angle of the model, and then a softer secondary ambient light hitting the rest. Airbrushes are useful for the diffusion but you can do it with blending, glaze or stipple method.
>>93420530Have you ever tried sponges for stippling?
Why the FUCK does no one run covens? I see wych cults and kabal all the time
>>93420536I've used them for weathering, I don't think you're going to get the control or precision you want compared to stipple blending with one of your more abusable brushes.
>>93420542expensive to build and not much of a range
>>93420542>grotesque are finecast>homoculous are perma sold out>wracks need an update to their kit. The A1 body is used for the veteran, raider gunner, and raider driver so you cant make more than one>urien rakarth isnt even sold>only Talos/Chronos have a good kit
>>93420542Ever play a nurgle army? Imagine buying 6 beast of nurgle
>>93420567>>wracks need an update to their kit.No, they don't
>>93420567>wracks need an update to their kit. The A1 body is used for the veteran, raider gunner, and raider driver so you cant make more than oneI have no idea wtf this is supposed to mean
>>93420581Yes they doThey need to be 5 monopose modelsAll the leader unit options need to be gone besides the hexrifle and curved bladesIt needs a tactical rock for the walking wrackAnd you need to buy two boxes to have all four special weapons
>>93420584You cant make the gunner and the driver with the same kit
>>93420581They look old
>>93420556Expensive how? Wracks are 40 bucks
>>93420597Didn't even know it came with those bits. Kinda neat but retarded that they didn't add spares for this purpose.Still, really don't think this justifies needing a new kit.
>>93420606No, they don't.
>>9342060940 bucks for 60 points isn't a very good ratiogrotesques aren't even available, you have to go for crypt horrors or recasters, which adds a layer that most people don't want to bother withtalos are like 60 for 80 pointsit's an expensive army
Covens don't look like a subfaction because they don't have a centerpiece, cabals and cults have their vehicles, while the vehicles can be manned by wracks they don't look like they truly belong, which is why I believe the best way to update grotesques is to ramp up their size considerably, from ogre size to giant size, an ogre-sized thing can be kept in the form of a hero that isn't a homunculus
>>93420626That's the purpose the talos serves already?
>>93420640Talos are dreadnought analogues, dreadnought analogues are not centerpieces anymore in this day and age
Just squat covens already. Whiny bitches.
>>93420613Back when you paid points per model and not a full 10 man squad it was fine
>>93420626>they dont have a center pieceTalos!
>>93420689>>93420658
>>93420697Is there a tutorial for this? Looks cool

i'm making 2 chapters and I have a lore question after i give the elevator pitch for both>Death Owls a Raven Guard successor chapter that are part of the Primaris Founding. The culture is a combination of their Terran slaving brutality and Hollywood ninjas. Made up of remnants of the space marines Corvus sent out of the galaxy in great ships in cryostasis failing only with opening of the great rift. Now a group of bitter angry Raven Guard who don't like that they aren't called raven guard try to avoid another civil war as they retake a sector on the dark side of the rift.>unnamed Fallen Warband of 200 neophytes that came out of the warp with The battle barge has been crusading for 100 years not knowing shit about what is going on other than they've been marked renegade and have decided to naively try to prove their loyalty through ever greater acts of heroism and blood oaths sworn. Discovered by the Lion and made an official Chapter and given a great sword used to slay a great salamander. Name is WiP but maybe Dragon Slayers Red White highlights color scheme.lore question: I know chapter can be created by edicts by the High Lords outside of a founding but can the Primarchs and the Custodes do so? I'm assuming yes for the primarchs.
>>9342060940 bucks for FIVE, niggerThat's like elite prices for your basic trash troops
>>93420717>those boxessovl
>>93420756Theres enough bits to kitbash 7
can necron players give me their opinions regarding these kits? which one did you find was better to work with? any pitfall or underrated feature?
>>93419675>7. Make Fulgrim into a Broadway musicalthis actually happens btw and Perterabo has to watch it.also based except>6. Release non-ugly models for onceno they're suppossed to be ugly it makes my autistic brain smile
>>93420708the tail is from a necron canoptek wraith
>>93420764Subassemblies... Trust me..
Ugliest model ranges?
>>93420789My personal taste I do not care for most of the Tau models.But on a technical level it's got to be either Space Wolves or Chaos Demons just because they are oversaturated with derpy old sculpts.
>>93420717>tfw never had one of those reeses in my lifeare they any good? not a burger btw
>>93420764I like the details on the new one but I prefer the sleeker profile of the old one.
>>93420789Drukhari. Especially covens. They should just squat them.
>>93420789marines
>>93420789Votann because they look like theyre from Infinity
>>93420801They have way too much sugar in them, but other than that they're just peanut butter and medium quality milk chocolate. If you've ever had the two together you probably know the taste
>>93420717If i hit on robert, it is gonna jumpcut to a sex scene?
>>93420803i prefer the sim crystal over the orb
>>93420788from the look of it the new monolith looks less 'monolithic', like it's got lots of empty spaces visible is it actually difficult to assemble it properly, without that effect or without bent arches?
>>93420833Yes
>>93420833it's a problem that all big models have
>>93420542I love the army, but this entire picture is only ~750 points and it costs almost double what my entire warhammer fantasy chaos army costs, and I can play 2000 point games of whfb with models to spare.That's why nobody plays the haemonculi covens. Also, I already have one (hell, 3) of everything I want and I can't even buy more of what I don't want.Lovely models, though. Wish I could convince people in my area to give 5th a try, so I could actually use them.
>>93420853awesome paint
>>93420853The grotesque dont have more weapon options?
>>93420874One knife, one gun. I didn't like how the guns looked.
>>93420874>finecast>one pose>meant to be taken in multiplesTruly awful kit
>>93418747Spraying and starting this once it warms up a bit outside. I need to track down a 2nd ed backpack with flag pole though, hopefully the local GW has one in the back.
>>93418724No one knows what you’re talking about. You should ask questions more clearly if you want to talk to people and samefag less.
>>93420853great idea to use the tentacles on the ship, with a slightly different sail configuration it could look like some kind of squid
Printing my first army soon and can't decide between Black Templars or Blood Angels.Anyone here have experience playing the armies? How do they fare in 10th?
>>93420808The worst model from Infinity still looks better than 40k's best
>>93420840>>93420845I guess that's my dealbreaker then, thanks, maybe I'll grab the old one
>>93420958Probably man. Also I need proof.
>>93420853This is true of the entire Drukhari army honestly. They're remarkably expensive for how old they are. Not to mention they require a ton of out of print fine cast to play competitively, like the court and the beastmasters and until recently mandrakes. Their incredible combat patrol is the only thing that makes the army even slightly affordable. And as many models as it comes with it's still only 450 points.
>>93420597You can use the other bodies with a bit of cutting. You'll have 3 wracks left over if you do that, so it's still a scam, but it makes your raiders look really cool and thematic so it's acceptable.
>>93420789Space Marines simply because the amount of models made guarantees a good amount of failed executions of a concept.
>>93420789I hate cadians, and more new cadians.Followed by tau.
>>93420971>They're remarkably expensive for how old they are.Several price hikes since then but it wasn't that long ago that a box of wyches or warriors cost €23 while other infantry was getting in the €40 range.
>>93420789Admechian Mechacus

>>93421014You are also retarded "lol"
Apologize
>>93421041For what? Apart from her goofy ass crossbowlter, her model looked fine i think
>>93421041why? maybe you wanted to post draxus?
>>93420988Yeah, but Wyches are 90 points while intercessors are 160. And their character model leader costs the same as a Space Marine character but is 45 points instead of 80.
Why do people complain about monoposing but also talk about metal models like they weren't the same thing?
I want orks. I'm torn on whether I should make them Deathskullz or Bad Moonz, and I was hoping someone could help me tiebreak them.
>>93421120because a monopose plastic kit for a badic unit is more damning than a monopose single metal model for a hero
>>93421120I think those are two different groups of people.
>>93421137bad moons look best with less yellow and more black in the colour schemealso some gold sometimes deffskulls look like they're covered in bionicle bits

>>93421120Metal models were easier to cast and therefore had more variations produced.A monopose plastic kit is a complete waste of time and resources. The money spent making that mould could have gone towards any number of multi part, posable plastic kits.
