>Thread Question:
Paraphrasing what an anon said and that is tell them to try reaper or wizkids miniatures instead of actually painting 40k minis.

I like the idea because by the time most are finished with their first reaper and/or wizkids model they have hopefully decided that the Warhammer 40k side of the hobby is not for them because they either don't like the hobby itself having tried it or having had a taste of cheaper models compared to GW pricing have decided to stay out. In a way it is gatekeeping, without being a dick.

Buy secondhand, focus on models and units you like the look of, start small, a couple units or a single deal box, don’t be a perfectionist. It will take years before you’re as good as a YouTube painter without prior practice. Make /yourdudes/ and don’t just go all in on a posterboy army.

Pick a faction that has sculpts you enjoy. Buy one box of basic troops and a character. Paint them in your favorite colours. Don't stress about rules until after you've finished your first models. Don't stress about having your models be utterly perfect.

I finished up basing my Ruststalkers, and primed/base coated a Dunecrawler. The Transonic blades aren't super cleanly painted but I think they look good enough. I don't have the patience to redo them, and from table distance they look badass.

>>93912249
I think, if their interest seems strong for 40k, a better plan is to tell them to get one basic infantry box and paint that. That'll help them determine if they have the desire to paint more, and if they do, they'll have made real progress.

Setting aside the designs themselves, since taste is subjective, GW plastic is very nice. I don't love their pricing, or their business practices, but their plastic is durable and easy to work with. I've dropped models with very spindly bits from chest height and they've bounced without damage. Meanwhile, I've placed my hand at the wrong angle holding resin and it snapped and had to be pinned (with super glue, which took forever to set holding resin).

After all that wrap the rest of the mini in plastic wrap and load a toothbrush or old brush with very stiff bristles and flick paint at the shield until you get your stars

>How would you advise someone getting into the Warhammer 40k side of the hobby?
Often times I hear people say go for the start collecting style things like combat patrol or even the main edition box sets like leviathan, and I agree that for value most of the times they are great.
But I'm not sure if anyone else is like me and struggles to focus their mind on the projects they embark on.
Years ago in my late teens for christmas I got my family to all help getting the odd item for a Dark Eldar army, and by christmas day I had a big box with a whole bunch of stuff for my army. I got around to building a few things but I still needed a few paints and at the time I had studies ongoing as well and I tend to lose interest in things as I gain a new found obsession with another game or hobby, and the Dark Eldar stuff was just sat in a box for a couple of years. I knew I'd always love 40k and come back to it but I eventually decided to sell the sealed stuff on when I needed some money.

The next time I came back to the hobby, I started small. Got the brushes and paints I needed and bought a single miniature, assembled it, took my time painting it, and then when I was happy with it moved on to my first squad continuing the same process.
I dont know if others are as scatterbrained as I am, but if you're anything like me I'd try that. Pick an army, start small with a character or a squad, finish it and slowly build up that way. It might not be as efficient as buying the value boxes but it could end up saving you money if you were to lose interest and then have a ton of stuff you dont want lying around. Little by little you'll amass the same large army you'd have either way and you'll avoid burnout

Yeah, I can see why nobody cared about that one, even less than the first game.

Blood for the Blood God in particular gave me a meltie. Having me try to mind control guardsmen and bring them to base to be sacrificed and summon a Bloodthirster is a cool idea, but the mind control ability is buggy as shit, doesn't work most of the time and when it does there's a serious chance the game bugs out and some chaos unit decides to kill the guardsmen just because. Since there's a quita to meet and a limited number of the dudes it's easy to just be soft locked into a defeat even if you "win", and fuck you if you already played that mission for over an hour.

Are the other 2 expansions better? I know they're more arcade-y, but if they're at least not a buggy mess with convoluted victory conditions it might be worth the time.

True, but that's true for almost all the plastic minis on the market.
Some of GWs kits are still good, despite being semi-monopose. Kits like the Cadians with 3 build options per body (if you only follow the instructions ofc) are great. Stuff like Krieg or Blooded or the recent brood brothers with the extra sprue for KT options are (strictly looking at the parts of the kits) still great. If GW would do all their minis in that spirit, I would be a happy customer despite the price.
But then they release things like the cultists (should be a no-brainer for a flexible and versitale kit) and it's monopose - and almost entirely one-piece models.

You can still use lacquers for your trim if you paint your trim first. Pretty sure you need to varnish lacquers after painting anyways so you might as well do all your spraying in metallics and then blast varnish before moving to your flats

They're simpler than you'd think. You can buy a cheap starter set with a compressor and airbrush for under 100usd, and beyond that all you really need is a bottle of cleaner fluid and an old box to spray into. Acrylics aren't toxic, so you don't need a vent hood or mask, and they don't stay as fumes in the air, they are fully dry by the time they hit the box you are spraying into.

It doesn't just save money on rattlecans, it also saves tons of time base coating vehicles and even infantry. You can tape off big blocks of color, or just spray to get the rough colors down and go back to touch it up later. I used it to paint my Ruststalkers legs and arms silver over the black base coat, then touched up the black of their suit afterward. Pic sort of related, I used an airbrush and some mesh netting to make a cool grid on my pteraxii's wings, and to easily base coat the opposite sides different colors quickly.

If you decide to take the plunge, just don't get the ones with the "portable" battery compressor, get a real one that plugs into the wall.

They're cool. Painting black is an intermediate skill check so generally black legion armies tend to be painted fairly nicely compared to other subfactions in chaos. It's neat having them be undivided too cause it let's people add subtle details tied to any of the chaos gods leading to an interesting looking force on the table

Cheers, its honestly been years since i've painted Imperial Fists and can't quite remember how i painted them. I think it's just Wraithbone and then a layer of Yriel Yellow and Flash Gitz Yellow. Think the shade was just Agrax. Really should clean up the rest of the boys though.

The treebark is great, but if you're ever looking for another option, you can grab raw unprocessed cork sheets or tubes from reptile supply stores and it has all the same working properties as the bulletin board material, but has more natural shapes.

>>93913109
Thanks! I checked the package, the mesh I used was Mosquito netting meant to be put over a hat, if you want to recreate the effect. I just base coated the wings silver, pulled it tight over the wing, and sprayed black over that. It's a little sloppy in places but it looks good from a distance.

The Airbrush set I bought and recommend as a starter is on Amazon as "Professional Master Airbrush Multi-purpose Gravity Feed Airbrushing System Kit", currently going for almost 100 even (inflation I guess, I got mine a couple years ago).

I've since upgraded my brush to an Iwata Eclipse, using the same compressor. I recommend just using the starter airbrush til you decide if you want to get fancier (and til you learn to clean it properly) it'll serve perfectly fine for basic stuff like priming, base coating, etc, and let you experiment without worrying about breaking anything (the starter airbrush can be replaced for like, 20 bucks or less).

Hello, I have a question about chaos space marines, specifically their 3rd edition codex. I understand that I'm only allowed to have one chaos lord as an HQ. I got a whole bag of old-school chaos space marine models second-hand the other day and there was both a chaos space marine lord in there and what I can only assume is an old metal raptor which I wanted to use as a chaos lord with a jump pack. If I can only use one of those models in my army at a time, which one is more fun? A chaos lord on foot with a retinue of chaos space marine veterans or a chaos lord with a jump pack acting independently? I know that chaos lords can be sorcerers too. Are jump pack sorcerers fun?

All synthetics split and hook, some faster than others, but they are so cheap that they're easily replaceable. Buy a 50 pack of synthetics in a size you enjoy using and allocate 10 to metallics, 10 to washes and the rest as basecoat brushes. Never buy name brand synthetics, they just aren't good enough for what you fet and your money would be better spent on tonnes of chinesium brushes and a couple nice ones

I was just wondering because I wanted my successor chapter to have that as part of their future chapter master's story. Like, he was old enough to have seen the 4th Tyrannic war. During the conflict, he sees many of his battle brothers die, and he starts to lose a little faith. What is he fighting for if the Tyranids will just show back up somewhere else. Then, a custodian shows up for one reason or another and is on the same battlefield as this marine. The marine tries talking to him about this, and since custodians have super long lives, he gives this marine a ton of perspective on what they're fighting for, and how Guilliman returning means that the Imperium has a little bit of fight left in it. Basically that's what I'm going for, wondering if it's lore-accurate.

I cam see from your model that you haven't been painting long enough to pull off the paint job in your reply quite yet. If you're having problem with dust then store your minis in a sealed environment while they're wip, and rinse all of your brushes and palette before using them.
>>
>>93914128
Shake your shade or get ones, maybe even from another brand. Contrast is fine but dont expect it to be a one and done sorta thing, use it like a shade. If stickiness persists a matte varnish will fix that
>>
i appreciate this TQ
i wound up going to the hobby shop and bought a box of necron warriors although honestly im undecided. Necrons have a neat lore, but their army kinda lacks big units. The Skorpekhs, Lokhust Destroyers, Hexmarks, and the Spyder is all cool but their chaff units like Lychguard, Immortals and Warriors are all.. idk the weapons are neat but the rest is so boring. I'm hoping I can find a paint scheme to make it more fun. I don't want to seem like a basic bitch but Space Marines terminators and dreadnoughts seem so appealing. Or IG with their tanks but they're so expensive.

Glaze on your base coat into the non-recessed areas after you shade.
>>
>>93914142
But you varnish it after you’re done painting, the issue is that the mini gets sticky when I am shading it, the shade is of a sticky consistency, idk why, I shake it, it’s Nuln Oil, in the videos it behaves like water, for me it behaves like very liquid but still viscuous glue with black dye in it

>>93914140
Yeah but I want to get to that level, it’s mind boggling though and irritating how much goes wrong
>good basecoats
>no fuck ups
>details all hit
>shade so you have a contrast where the different colors meet
>shade completely changes the mini
This was after the nuln oil had dried, the basecoats were smooth before, afterwards, you can see all the grainy texture and microscopic fibers that the nuln oil attracted and stuck to the mini, air floaties, its infuriarting, even when I repass it with color, the texture will stay, is my nuln oil a dud or is all nuln oil behaving like that?
>>
>>93914153
Maybe you remember them like this.
>>
>>93914203
Sounds like your nuln is a dud if it's not watery, mine doesn't do that and I paint in a dusty place with the windows open.

>>93914203
Could be your pot of nuln is fucked. You could try stiring it to see if it helps. I myself dont use citadel shades since they have a tendecy to suck like yours ever since they changed the recipe. I use vallejo washes or oil, work like a charm every time.

Base coat the model with leadbelcher. Then spray a dark blue or purple contrast from below, and a light blue/teal contrast from above.

Very easily done. Don't brush the contrast on it'll look shit. Consider also watering down the contrast slightly with *water*. It will give the paint a more matte effect and mute the natural glossiness of contrast.

This is the safest approach to posting models if you really want to post models but are afraid of big doxx. 4chan already removes a lot of data from your images to keep you anonymous and cropping your images before posting helps too.

Except this one. Jesus christ cunt thin shit down a bit holy fuck.
>>93914537
I am torn on this because it's high effort but honestly there are some major flaws. I think the detail and highlighting is fine but this person really should look into getting an airbrush to move forward. If those base greens and reds were airbrushed, and with some effort put into gradients on the green and red with said airbrush, this would quickly turn into top notch work. The skill is there but the technique is not. Also consider using black legion to do the joints and so on as they're just left red on a lot of models and that detracts a lot from the scheme. Some edge highlights on the green and red are needed.
>>93914059
Congratulations you ruined a sicaran. God it's like the easiest model to edge highlight ever and you have virtually none. You've done chips on the edge but no highlights of them either. And same for recess washing.

Some of the better paint jobs in this thread though:
>>93914382
This could be vastly improved by adding some highlights to the chipping. Use a brighter contrasting paint and put little dots on the edges of the chipping like peeled paint. Rocks are dogshit though, disgusting overbrush. Wipe more paint off the brush when you drybrush.
>>93914180
Clean necron, out of focus.
>>93914121
This is nice work but I recommend giving up on painting eyes. Use the same techniques and just don't actually paint the eyes. The one on the right looks fine though so if you can repeat that, good luck to you. Fuck painting that much detail on guardsmen though.
>>93913532

Favorite incompetent guard moment was from The Wicked and the Damned. It's a typical story of a bogged-down guard advance against traitor lines where tens of millions of guardsmen die in pointless mass bayonet charges over miles of no man's land and other stupidity. We're given to believe that the commander of the regiment is supremely incompetent or possibly even compromised. However, it's slowly revealed over the course of the story that the 'traitors' are, in fact, another arm of the Guard. The problem is, the commanders of both armies have realized that it doesn't matter who made the first mistake or fired the first shot. The first person to admit to it will be blamed for it and they and every single soldier under them will be tortured and executed wholesale, along with any family they have.

Im glad you think so anon. With the red I think its a bit of a lighting issue. The red really pops in the super saturated light I got, in more natural light it looks a bit more muted.

He's not even drybrushing properly, he's overbrushing.

>>93914081
Cunt you need to wipe virtually ALL the paint off your brush before you drybrush. IF you are going to drybrush at all.

Honestly at your skill level I'd recommend zenithal prime + washes/contrast paint, and do the armor with layer paints.

Quite frankly for guard I'd recommend that for any skill level.

I'm not the reviewer anon, but I don't think shitting on minis is a bad thing. Some negative reinforcement can help people improve.

That said, I don't generally reply to people unless I'm genuinely curious or impressed by the pic. I actually like posting here or /wip/ because people elsewhere tend to sugarcoat or just have praise regardless of reality

The objectively correct way to post models:
1. Only post them here OR only on socials associated with your real name. Never both, brainlets who did were doxxed in the past.
2. Take actual, specific criticism seriously - posts that point out mistakes and suggest ways to fix them.
3. Ignore bait - posts that don't make a coherent argument and can't articulate the issues they have with your models.
Simple as.

I'll tell you:
>>93915202
You're a clean painter. You have the skill but maybe not necessarily the technique. Once again you're someone I'd recommend to move on to airbrushing - if you haven't already. I can see the brush strokes.

You're also going too heavy on the washes on the green. It kind of looks like you've done an all over wash - which is not something you want to do on mechanical pieces like those.

Imo you've gone as far as you can go for now with brushwork alone unless you want to start wet-blending every single model piece you make which imo is just fucking insane when you can get similar results in seconds with an airbrush.

It also looks like you are "drybrushing" on the edge work rather than actually edge highlighting. Also, use a brighter colour for your edge highlights.

A note on that: for edge highlighting, you don't have to do everything. Do everything you can be bothered with and focus on easy edges. Use the side of a brush to do it.

Overall not complete trash and shows signs of being a few steps off being a good painter. You just need to take the leap and try more advanced techniques.

Cringe misnomer. You're not painting aircraft models dickhead.

It depends on what you are painting and what your goal is. All over washes are appropriate for infantry models (not space marines) and speed painting. Not appropriate for vehicles or large flat panels on models.

Selective shading and recess washes are best used on more detailed schemes for infantry, and should be the default on vehicle models.

Here are the things I think you could improve easily
1) eye lenses look flat, just follow some tutorial for these
2) metallics look flat, maybe just the photo but they probably need some highlighting, chain on the front especially.
3) the gold also needs more on the edges, it blends into the orange too much
4) work in some dot highlights on the corners where edges of the orange parts of the armor meet.

Oh boy this is good.
Now I just need to find regular Cadian remake stls that are compatible with heavy weapon teams and I'm good as gold.

it was just too similar to the dark brown-rusty orange I had on the first test marine I painted and it didn't really add anything for definition or shading

Godspeed. I love customised guard and PDF so much it's unreal.

Is there anything wrong with drybrushing edges instead of edge highlights, if one can avoid obvious brush strokes? NTA btw, just curious
>>
>>93915535
Found the torso and one holding a rifle. Now to download and learn Blender and get going.
Once again thank you, anon!
>>
>>93915571
Nothing wrong with it per se, it just has a distinct look that immediately screams "drybrushing" and as it's a low effort technique people will point it out as a negative.

>6 weeks into meme army project
>haven't received models yet
>>
>>93915582
That's fair, I tend to do it on troops / battleline models as I've got so many of them to paint. I don't overdo it though, it's barely noticeable
>>

I know they're named after an unironic homosexual poem written by a gay man but I didn't think that was a reason. You may be right anons...
I want an eldar gf and I love operations management. Ultramarines it is.
>>
>>93915571
It depends what you are going for because it gives a different effect. The answer is no, not really, if you want it to look like the edge is rougher rather than sharp. But there are certain times where it just looks incorrect like on that anon's cannons.

I sometimes like to "drybrush" the edges of rough swords and axes to give a very rough edge look to them.

New bread when? Image limit reached
>>
>>93915584
You're not exactly 6 weeks into a project if you haven't started yet anon
>>
>>93915584
What's the meme army? I am constantly tempted to start new meme projects.
>>
>>93915603
He's got the concept of a project.
>>
>>93915582
I don't think drybrushing is a negative if done correctly. The problem is most people do it wrong and end up overbrushing. This is what triggers people.

It's hilarious because people who criticise dry brushing are such painting amateurs themselves they don't realise what they're looking at is an incorrectly executed technique. They act like drybrushing is the devil when it's a fantastic technique. But most people are very poor at it.

day 6 of exercising every day until the Emperor's Children Codex is released

The image limit has been hit so here's ASCII art of a plasma gun

>>93915601
OP here. I'm too lazy to come up with a thread question. So I'll let someone else make the new bread.
Though one day I think a janny is gonna get sick of us new breading before page 8 because of image limit.

I look forward to when you realize how right this choice really is.

>they and every single soldier under them will be tortured and executed wholesale, along with any family they have.
But why? Officers I can understand, but for the soldiery it seems like the kind of thing some censure would fix, at most shipping them off to some 2 weeks lifespan battlefront for penitence.
>>
>>93915653
Hitting image limit is an entirely reasonable excuse to bake a new bread
>>
>>93915677
Because the Imperium does not revolve around compassion, fairness, or rationality.
>>
>>93915676
is this a reference to the fact the historical King Arthur might have been roman affiliated or possibly roman himself?
>>
>>93915607
Space Harine chapter. Its a primaris successor of an unknown legion. They are not codex compliant, prefer melee, and they have a dark secret that they slowly mutate into bunnymen. They all grow bunny ears at some point when receiving their gene-seed organs

This is a fetish army and you know it you little freak

NTA but I thought has Welsh connected too
>>
>>93915685
Just wait until we somehow reach 150 images before 300 posts and then we'll probably see the jannies sing a different song to your tune.
I really don't want it to happen because the thread splitting as anons all compete to make the new bread will produce a shitshow.

Cabal

>>93915726
It's my understanding he was a Briton in modern day Wales, inherited power from the leaving Romans, then beat the ever living fuck out of the Saxons so bad he lived forever in legend.

No, my tau army is a fetish army. This is a meme army

>>93915732
I don't think they would care given any /40kg/ that has hit image limit will also hit page 9 within a couple hours
>>
>>93915744
>robot jones spotted
>>
>>93915748
True, but now that I think about it. It would be funny if the image limit by 300 points resulted in five 40kg threads being made within seconds of each other.
>>
>>93915761
You vastly underestimate how lazy most anons are here, which is also the reason we don't have a new bread yet
>>
>>93915755
I'm jealous of that guy's skills in painting and digital drawing.
Man at this point should make a 40k hentai. He might be the first to make a 40k hentai doujin if he does soon.

beastsnaggas belong in aos and 40k orks have been butchered beyond belief
cant remember the last time I played against them, miss those mfs
>>
I've cummed on a lot of my sisters of battle minis, and all of them have gotten godly dice rolls after the fact. I'd recommend sanctifying your adeptus sororitas before battle, lest they are forgotten by the emperor.
>>
>>93915914
Snaggas are mostly ok but GW does need to move on and stop pushing them so much. Junkyard or speed freeks Orks are waybetter aesthetics.
Rules wise Orks desperately need points changes to a lot of stuff.
>>
>>93915930
They feel too AoS to me, 40k orks should be way influenced by their whacky technology not riding squigs
the newer boys and nobs suck too. I get Orks are supposed to be cannon fodder in the setting but it'd be nice if they looked the least bit intimidating
>>
Which wolf lord should receive a model next
>>
>>93915967
I disagree. I enjoy the goofy nature to Orks as opposed to the dark, dismal place the rest of 40k is. The fun is that if Orks were real in any sense they'd be absolutely terrifying monsters, and yet in 40k they're just lovable hooligans looking for a good scrap.
I do somewhat agree on the aesthetics though. Orks using squigs certainly have their place alongside the rest of the range, but junkyard Orks are better by a mile. I don't think snaggas should go anywhere but I do think GW needs to go back to another part of the army for their next wave, whenever that may be.

99% of IG only advantage are their vastly superior numbers. Regardless of the specific regiment's approach to battles (usually enemy at the gates style Russian charges into enemy machine gun emplacements), without its numbers advantage they crumble, even against other unaugmented humans.

I posted this in the wrong thread cus I'm retarded someone pls answer me anyway.
>>
>>93915995
>>93915967
It's ironic that WFB greenskins are actually more evil and edgy than their 40k counterparts. Let's just say that they aren't afraid of torturing and sodomizing captured dwarf minors in sight of dwarf settlements to fuck with them.
>>
>>93915780
You can't make me make a new thread, anon. I won't do it.
>>
>>93915967
Some games and books depict them as horrifying. In Cain, seeing the destruction they caused was enough to make Cain immediately understand why the normally stoic Jurgen hates them with a passion. In Space Marine, Grimskull is both strong and smart.

Probably whichever one is riding that resin wolf with the squirrel tail. I remember my local SWs player seething over that thing for a while.

If there aren't enough models in the range you enjoy to make a good list, you're probably in the wrong faction.
