they should release models with built in LED lightingI want the green parts of my necrons to glow
>>94850059>Hobbylet can't model his own glowlmao
>>94849731>wanted to paint this weekend>did
>>94850066
>>94850061How are you supposed to make all the green parts glow, without printing your own model in clear resin??
Which primarch is best
>>94850082Asurmen
>>94850082angron
>>94850082Samus Aran
>>94850082The thunder warrior primarch killed by custodean Diocletian during the culling at the end of unification
>>94850081The green "glow" is just paint. The studio painters just very slowly glaze the paint on and make it go from dark to light.It's method that requires skill but more importantly patience.
When eldar get lost on a path, can they still access experience from old paths?
>>94850101I'm aware of that. What I want is actual glow, as in a light. Imagine how fucking cool it would look if the blade, tachyon arrow, eyes, etc. all emitted actual light.
Will they ever get a kill team?
>>94850101retard
>>94850098I agree.
Am i remembering right that the ciaphas cain books have audio book versions? If they do anyone have a link for em?
>>94850113Then find some LEDs and shove them inside some green plastic and glue that to the model.
>>94850122Google it yourself.
>>94850117>Will [this obscure piece of shit that 90% people do not care about] ever get a [model]?No.
>>94850130No
Is there a guess what the EC starter box will cost? Based on current GW behavior
>>94850142About $350
This is how I Eldar
>>94850127That'll look like ass though.I've seen some tutorials online for adding LEDs to models, like LED eyes for Marines. The problem is that it seems the only way to do it without putting holes in the face is to cast a head in resin (since the gray plastic the models are made of isn't transparent enough) and leave the glowing parts unpainted. For Necrons you'd have to replace a lot of the model with custom pieces.

My lgs is doing a 1000pt league for a couple of weeks, mostly as an introductory thing for beginners. I decided to try it out, and I made what I thought was a reasonable list for a casual setting. To my surprise, seemed like everyone decided to go heavy on vehicles. Dreadnought armies from marine players, tanks and walkers for SoB, and no less than three different knight players.Any idea how to handle high toughness units? Pic related is my current list, wondering if I should swap out some stuff for antitank units.
>>94850213
>>94850219
>>94850225
>>94850227
>>94850059What, like lego does? You put in electronics and you'll have to contend with a whole new set of regulations. Shipping, manufacturing, disposal, all of it. GW tends to be lazy at best, so as cool as it'd be, you're stuck making your own light up models.
>>94850213Ayyy, I was the one who asked for a Johnny. Thanks anon!
>>94850082The Lion has a sick sword and that's the most important part of being a cool dude in 40k
What if we made the saves/WS/BS etc cost 1+ more for all units>MEQ's shoot, hit save on 4+>GEQ shoot, hit save on 5+ etc>The TEQ/hero units hit on 3+'s or save on 3+>The unholy and above hit on 2+'sThoughts, I feel like it be great to see
>>94850052>TQdoes it count if its not from a faction at all, and not from 40k? lmao
>>94850243And what is that supposed to do? It's already difficult enough to stratify stats within a D6 system, making everything hit worse would be unsatisfying for all players.
>>94850251Then change to a d8 system, I dunno but I'm sick of the d6 system for things like special guard units/heres shooting/fighting as good as daemons or transhuman super soldierst. playing since 4th ed
>>94850213Cheers!

I've got this idea and don't know if it's insane/stupid, but I'd like to play 3e/4e at 15mm scale. Print out the minis to the scale and run the rules with all ranges halved (or something like that). I think it would be neat because 40k tends to feel a little crowded but I don't want to go with battles on the Epic scale. I think doing some Armageddon stuff would be neat.
When the hell am I getting the rest of my Dark Angels GW release them already you fucks
>>94850290t-thats actually kind of a good idea anon
>>94850298you have everything already you whiny faggot
>>94850314I like the mask if it's yours
>>94850314The mask makes the model look so much better
>>94850298there's nothing else to release for them, they already have kits for all their unique stuff
>>94850068Post what you painted
>>94850306GW hasn’t even touched the tip of Primaris upgrades for dangles lmao wtf
>>94850298I swear DAfags are even worse than normal marinefags. You'll get primaris black knights next edition calm down gay boy.
>>94850348tell me what bespoke models DA had that haven't been portedif you say bikes I'll tell you to kill yourself you have the upgrade sprue for that
>>94850213Very cool
>>94850306There’s still Sammy and their librarian last I checked and the ravenwing
>>94850082The second one
>>94850290To be fair, the scale creep in recent years has been absurd. Characters going from 28 to 32 to 40 and now to 50mm scales as a standard is ridiculous. Remember when this guy was released and people thought he was huge? Then the new leviathan terminator captain got released.
>>94850328I'm still mad he didn't get a helmet option like magnus and now fulgrim
>>94850348Dark Angels are very experienced in touching tips, so it shouldn't be any bother.
>>94850370they're not 50mm scale they're on 50mm bases and only giant HQs are
When the hell am I getting the rest of my Blood Angels GW release them already you fucks
>>94850336It's not 40k-related unfortunately. A random gundam kit I'm painting in a desert camo scheme.
>>94850380nice try blood angels players don't want anymore things to get ruined like death company and sanguinary guard did
>>94850082Eldrad Ulthran
Dark Eldar refresh isn't coming. I can't feel it....
>>94850384I want primaris Corbulo though. It's strange for him to be left out. The new captain kinda looks like Tycho so even he got a new model even though hes dead. Justice for high sanguinary priest columbo
>>94850348upgrade kit + the existing dangels range has you covered for every unique unit available to dangels
>>94850404Finally a ritual post I can get behind
>>94850404at least you've learned your lesson at this point
trying out some very rough colour schemesI like the idea of the two tone grey, but dont think thats the layout for itopen to suggestions, still got a couple guinea pig marines before I run out of sparesGot a couple of contemptors and tanks to paint up in whatever colours I settle on
>>94850423I like the light grey one but think maybe using the blue on the far right for the helmets could be neat
>>94850423I like the left most but while it's unique, colored studs I really don't think work. I do agree with the idea of having another red accent somewhere on the armor directly, though. Best part of it is the thigh>shin>boot alternation, so if you can recreate that elsewhere I think it'll look good. Maybe go for the face/skull split on the helmets? You see that in a few official chapter schemes.
>>94850423They all look pretty boring. The red one is the least bad.
>>94850423are the HH helmets the same size as regular 40k marines?
>>94850445they're a little smaller
>>94850445Yes, helmets were deliberately kept the same size across all marine ranges including primaris to ensure bits interchangeability.
The only overarching plots I care about in this setting now are Elfshit.
>>94850105probably not. Getting lost on the path is equivalent to mega autism & OCD.
How would you bag an Eldar baddie?
>>94850117Right after Hrud
>>94850448>>94850450Hmmm
>>94850423Lighter colors are rarer to see, so I appreciate the second from the left. Give it some gold and red accents, and you basically have white scars.
>>94850464tell her how badly I want my face to be her chair
I wanna make a little diorama with marines of our marinefags /yourdudes/. What recognizable marinefags with custom schemes do we have? Off the top of my hat I remember sallyman, orange and teal and frozen flames guy
>>94850445This guy >>94850448 has it right, they are indeed slightly smaller. Not to the degree that they're unusable, but it's one of those things that start looking weird the longer you stare at it.
>>94850430>>94850434>>94850471thanks lads, I'll keep these in mind for the next batch>>94850468If I had some regular marines I'd check for you anon but I've just got the HH box ones
>>94850475frozen flames guy is dead and gonethere's the purple anon who also does the retro blood angels, and a guy who paints blue blood angels with checkerboard pauldrons too
Truck
>>94850464the Ordo Xenos has bodybags tall enough to bag one of those villains, don't you worry
>>94850493Pt 2
>>94850493looking good
So does anyone here play Votann?
>>94850498Pt 3
>>94850492>frozen flames guy goneI was planning on making the diorama be like one of those classic final stands with a standard bearer in the middle sorta things. Maybe frozen flames guy can be a casualty on the ground.
>>94850504Final
>>94850506that'd be a nice nod to him
>>94850493Anon, dirt needs to be motivated to look good. As in, it needs to be applied to places were dirt would realistically accumulate.
>>94850475if you do this make the enemies they're fighting blue orks
>>94850520Good idea, will do.

>>94850588I pop in once and awhile. This is the last dude I painted.Cool to see I am still remembered.
>>94850579What is this a reference to?
>>94850579Wonder how much this guy has spent on commissions. It's cool and all, but it does feel like it borders on obsession at times.
>>94850588>>94850603What head did you use for the indomitus chaplain?
>>94850475there's that guy who does red and grey firstborn who posts fairly infrequently, also blubangels anon, purpleking, orange and tealanon, and sallyking are a given and must includes
>>94850607The dude in that pic "the black lion of ultramar" is some guy's donut steel shadow the hedgehog he commissions fucktons of high quality art of to the point that loretubers and other secondary mediafags will use art with his donut steel shoved in because they think it's first party art
>>94850607The Black Lion of Macragge, an OC self-insert of some random Greek dude. He commissioned an insane amount of art for his OC (featuring named characters or important events) to the point where lorelets think he's a canon character.
>>94850611Came from a reaver kit I bought and never assembled or painted. lol
>>94850618What character did his OC fight alongside?
>>94850624Oh nice, your paintjob does a lot of heavy lifting with that helmet sculpt
>>94850628Pretty much everyone from Guilliman to Sigismund.
>>94850618>to the point that loretubers and other secondary mediafags will use art with his donut steel shoved in because they think it's first party art>>94850620>to the point where lorelets think he's a canon character.kind of based
>>94850629Thanks. Except the osl I tried to do from his eyes makes it look like he is blushing in my opinion.
>>94850632The sheer commitment has elevated it to the based level, yes.
>>94850603this is probably the best painted black on /tg/ aside from blacklegionanon. Spot highlights are very small but very deliberate and placed with a believable lightsource in mind
>>94850624very very nice, please post your stuff more often
>>94850638>uwu dante-san...
>>94850632Dude is literally pulling a psyop on GW and playing the long game. Goodness knows GW barely does background research on their own lore anymore, it's only a matter of time before they accidentally forget the Black Lion OC isn't actually one of theirs.
>>94850648>jim we need a pity character for the next vanilla marine codex who can we use
>>94850640Thanks. This was actually my attempt to speed up my process on painting basic dudes. I typically put stupid amount of hours in ever mini before that. Primed black, dry brush grey, then white, glazed black, then did quick and dirty edge highlights and wet blended a little more highlights on the rounded areas. Still took longer than I'm proud of.
>>94850638I can see where your coming from, but I think it's easy to zoom in super close on a photo and pick out tiny things that wouldn't be noticeable unless you were inches away from your eyes
>>94850660That's a hobbylet cope.You *must* strive.
>>94850620>The Black Lion of MacraggeGiven that the OC is part of deathwatch and doesn't wear a helmet, I can only assume he is also a company captain, probably one of the youngest in the history of the legion, and probably a blank as well but everyone loves him.
>>94850664post your models

>In the Grim Darkness of the far future, the majority of battles are fought on peaceful, featureless, undeveloped grassy meadows.
>>94850644Im trying to get back into painting more but I'm lucky if I have the time to do it a couple days a week. Right now I am working on this Captain and may do some more Sisters after.Not in love with the helmet. I'm considering a Mark XII or XIII.>>94850645kek
>>94850620I'm legitimately curious about how much money that guy's spent on commissions at this point. It's gotta be in the tens of thousands at this point.

>>94850704>Kroot v Necrons circa m41, colorized
Are the family of guardsmen or space marines told when their enlisted family dies?
>>94850681Unironically, is this why so many people say there are plenty of nice planets to live on in 40k? Because if 1% of the entire galaxy's special ops can show up to shoot some orks in what is effectively 1860s Kansas and then go home, it shows they don't have much better to do.
>>94850724Depends on the marine Chapter. Salamanders, yes. Keep in mind most Marines outlive their immediate family.Guardsmen, depends on the rank and proximity to their family. Most cases, no.
>>94850502>Fanbase moans like fuck about Squats for decades>GW brings back Squats>No cunt buys them>Nothing personnel, kid
>>94850724For guard - yes. Their families even get a small stipend.For marines - not normally since they tend to recruit from harsh environments where any family would be hard to find. Only chapters like ultras or sallies would be able to since their worlds are civilized and families of the recruits can be expected to survive long enough to be findable.
>>94850739>"We want Squats!">"Okay, here are your Squats but we made them gay!"
>>94850631Jesus Christ you weren't kidding.
>>94850748I can't tell if you're just using "gay" as a term for "lame", or if you're being literal and there are actually faggot Squats.
>>94850749Also showed up with the Ultras at the Devistation of Baal to save Dante and the Blood Angels.
>>94850724Sometimes, but it is unlikely. Guardsmen are not expected to return home even if they survive 20+ years of service plus, long range communication is difficult and expensive. For word to get home: >Guardman's CO needs to write a letter to the family. >Guardsman's CO needs to get letters approved by the commissar for civilian viewing.>CO sends letters to the communications officer who either puts them with the ship's mail (to be delivered when/if the navy ship returns to their home planet) or tries to get them to the astropath>Astropath mentally strains himself to send vague feelings through the warp in the hopes the person on the other side understands. >The receiving astropath gets the message(s) and transcribes them>The letters now need a logistical path to get from the astropath to the recipient family. This can be difficult if the astropath is on a space station, if the family is from a low-tech world, of if the family are nomads and/or otherwise don't have a personal address. >Add onto this that this is the grimdark future and COs could lose literally dozens of direct reports per day.
>>94850475For some reason I immediately thought of that one anon who made a Jewish marine because he was bored.
>>94850681I wouldnt have it any other way
>>94850475
>>94850739No one wanted squats. They just felt special for knowing about them.

Does anyone remember a short story about some IG regiment that's resilient to poison and gas attacks assaulting Nurgle's garden in order to rescue Isha? I vaguely remember something about it like "we gotta go save Mom", but I cant find it and it's killing me.
>>94851074are you sure you didnt dream that
>>94851074Never heard of that. Sounds really lame and gay, real fan fiction tier writing. Sorry man.
Is Valrak really the face of 40k on YouTube? I tried watching one of his vids and he came off really…weird? Kinda like those marvel fanboys who collect funko pops.
>>94851084>real fan fiction tier writingWhy you gotta do Gav and Bob so dirty man?
>>94851074It ends with guardsman bob drinking isha's breast milk, right? I sorta remember that.
>>94851087>Kinda like those marvel fanboys who collect funko pops.thats exactly the kind of person into 40k.
>>94850999Just remembered this guy with pink marines but I haven't seen him post them in forever. You still around? Guess a pink marine could be another casualty on the ground.
>>94851093>drinking isha's breast milkGross, that is for baby cows
>>94851074Yeah, but it was Kaldor Draigo instead of IG and it ends with him having sex with Isha after soloing entire nurgle host and then bailing out.

What the hell should I equip my Dorns with weapons wise? I feel like the big gun & autocannon are braindead picks for the primary turret because 1 less gun for wound rerolls seems kinda lame but what about nippleguns and sponsons?
>>94851148its not thats why blizzard is dead and gamesworkshop is getting more and more popular.
>>94851167no blizzard is dead because they milked wow to death and then sank all their resources into overwatch and the mobile game sequel to wow and managed to insult even the chinese outsourced company with the low wages offered so the latter got cancelled after tens of millions of dollars went into it
