Why hasn't GW thought to release genestealer Marines? Considering how Chaos Marines ate all the other Chaos factions rules, why haven't GW attempted to remove all their xenos lines and boil it down to releasing five genestealer Marines?

Army Painter Grey, even though mydudes are mostly black I find that I get a better overall result if I prime grey, and it gives my Black Legion Contrast something to work with.

I used to use Tamiya light grey but I stopped pretty early on because it seems like no matter what paint I follow up with, even other Tamiyas, they would draw and bead, requiring one or two more thin coats then I should need, and I was concerned they weren't adhering properly.

Newcommer here. I know nothing about Warhammer 40k lore or just the bare minimum. I bought my first box of Tyranids (Hormagaunts) two weeks ago and painted them and it was really fun to get back into the hobby (I had a small Bretonnian army when I was about 14, 20 years ago, and fuck I'm old). I haven't bought the codexes yet. Before playing, I wanted to see if I still enjoyed painting as much (I do).

I was wondering: are there any big Tyranid monsters, kaiju-style? Is there a unit as big as an Imperial Knight? I'd love to paint one, now, I believe.

If not, why not? A big Tyranid monster would be fun for everyone, players and opponents alike, right?

Mr Surfacer grey for a good while now, it's such a fantastic primer desu. I usually airbrush the main basecoat of a mini over it so the color doesn't really matter that much anyway.

I'm starting Necrons and was wondering what color scheme should I go for?

Classic Green Blade Crons, Blue Blade Crons or Red Blade Crons? I'm tempted to go Red but then I'd have to go all in on a darker scheme which can be a waste since things like metallic cloaks, blackstone etc. look just okay when painted red while when they are painted in a green scheme you can make everything "pop" more. Blue scheme can be somewhere in the middle but it's just the basic power weapon scheme on thr blades so maybe it's too boring?

Any advice? Stick to the classic or go Red or Blue?
>>
>>96474358
You’re a fuck you know that?

>>96474560
While other color schemes on crons do look cool, to me there is nothing better than the original green/yellow glow.

>>96474596
Why are you so incapable of learning the social mores of a community? You have committed the equivalent of showing up to game night with unpainted minis and running a competitive list against casual players. You are technically not breaking any rules but it is still bad form making the experience worse for others. In this case, thread spamming detracts from the rest of the board outside of this general and it would be nice to keep our already large footprint as modest as possible.
>>
>>96474596

The usual pattern of late seems to be an index edition made to bring in new players with smaller armies before cranking up the complexity and slowly dropping points costs on everything to force them to expand their collection. Then after six years the player base starts falling off and they try to court a new one.

White scar and corax temperamental. In perfect conditions they would spray amazing, and lay very flat and be so smooth they would be mildly hydrophobic. But the second you're outside perfect conditions they would start behaving like you sprayed them in the worst possible conditions. Most sprays you can get an okay spray in iffy conditions, but the old whites were either perfect or so bad they need to be stripped

Where votann restock? I need like $700 of models and GW won't fucking sell them to me or my FLGS.
>>
>>96475220
the short answer is: no

the long answer is: noooooooooooooooo

the autistic answer is:
genestealers had that color scheme since 2nd edition, at the time the main, practically only, fleet was behemoth, so genestealers with that scheme were technically associated with behemoth, even though at the time different tyranid organisms could have their own quirks about their color schemes largely unrelated to fleet affiliation, also because nobody expected fleets to wear uniforms and the same fleet, behemoth, was showcased with different schemes
BUT
later we started getting and retreading more fluff about the origin of the genestealers and the infestation of the galaxy and its space hulks by genestealers all started from the moon of ymgarls before the fleets arrived, who were in turn infected by a cargo taken from the tiamet system, so one could say that's the scheme of genestealers from tiamet
BUT
tiamet wasn't actually a hive fleet at the time, it's unknown which tyranid fleet infected the tiamet system with whatever FTL alien goo that eventually gave rise to genestealers, what we know is that eventually a hive fleet would arrive and become sedentary around that system, hive fleet tiamet
BUT
hive fleet tiamet wasn't the first fleet that touched that system, before the hive fleet tiamet formed/was recognised another fleet engulfed the tiamet system, kraken, so one could argue that it was them who probed the thing in the first place
BUT
also hive fleet hydra has a similar color scheme to those genestealers

Its all a learning process and some of that is the muscle memory connection you build up over time that allows you to be more steady with your brush. I would say thin paints a bit and go over the gold some more and fill in the blue spots you missed with the White and Gold. I love your passion tho so keep going!

I don't personally collect necrons, but they seem like a kit that would benefit from owning some Gundam Markers, they're literally made for filling panel lines.

Vallejo mecha primer, black, through my airbrush. Then I base-coat the whole thing whatever color will be most annoying to paint, and sometimes I also do a gradient on that color if I think it will look cool, or a zenithal spray of a lighter shade of the same color. Saves me a ton of time. Usually on AdMech it's khorne and mephiston red, occasionally silver if the model has a lot of metal details that will be a pain to paint by hand.

>That brief moment of dissolution can, and often does, feel like an eternity.

>The dissolution doesn't mean you're gone, anymore than the sugar cube you put into your tea is gone just because you don't see it anymore. The sugar is still there, and so are the fragments of you.

So if this is right, then you could theoretically resurrect anyone right? Even permakilled figures like Horus. If you had enough power and knowledge you might even be able to do it perfectly, but that was probably beyond even the Old Ones with a calm warp to work with.

I mean it is nice to have a physical copy of the rules in front of you to reference quickly.

If you want them for lore then most of them are trash for that compared to anything 8th edition or earlier.

No franchise is too big to fall into irrelevancy. See Flash Gordon if you want proof of that. That shit had international fame.

>>96477140
Not to burst your bubble but gunpla uses a lower grade and lower viscosity polystyrene produced in China that allows for mold and injection styles that don't work for the plastics GW uses in their models and are not considered suitable for "handheld game pieces" by most producers.

>>
>>96477204
No worries. I appreciate the idea and competition does indeed breed creativity, but plastics production is actually my industry and it's a common misconception that all injection molding processes are alike. The rheology of the polymers requires lots of special consideration and even GW has been known to fuck that up themselves in the past (see the Finecast debacle).
>>
>>96477227
because you have no idea what the standards for the MINIATURE market is or that GW mogs the competition and your mongrel mind seems to think HURR IT MADE OF PLASTIC AND YOU BUILD IT DAT MEAN DEY DA SAME THING!!!
>>
I kind of get why, but I wish there was more “Starter Edition” sets that give more units than just Space Marines versus (Insert faction here). Like a box with 5 Sisters and 5 Cultists or 5 Necrons and 5 Eldar. I suppose that’d be stepping on Kill Team’s toes, but Kill Team kind of sucks at being a Littlehammer introduction to 40K since they’re afraid of releasing rules for models that they don’t sell in KT boxes.
>>
>>96477233
>plastics production is actually my industry and it's a common misconception that all injection molding processes are alike

>>
>>96477250
Supply chains, mostly. Polymer is expensive to transport in large quantities and UK based producers lose a lot of competitive advantage paying to ship massive quantities of cheap Chinese or Indonesian polymers when they can source German materials of higher grade for similar price points. I don't know all the specifics of their process either but things like HI-Polystyrene are great for fine details but require a lot more gates and injection ports and often require longer curing times to get the benefit of both the relative strength and flexibility.

Nobody would want vehicles to suddenly lose all their weapon options or become so brittle that the explode when they inevitably tpp over on a slope of tumble off a building during play. Gunplay kits come with a gun for each hand and maybe a beam sword but outside upgrade sets have little to no customizability
>>
>>96477366
That wasn't your point or you would've specified people kitbashing primarchs ITT
but hey, (you) tried
>>
>>96477351
No. The whole point of the example sprue you showed was minimal separate parts, for ease of assembly. You can't swap out parts on your own for a kitbash when they're all moulded together on arrival. It's a completely different use case from Gundam, like you've already been told a dozen times. More parts and more complexity leads to more variation in the final build and more customisability. It's a trade off that we're actively looking for and don't want your Gundam sprue. Get it through your head already.
>>
>>96477353
People are mad. And I think it is because they can’t accept that a rival company is doing something right that gw can learn from. It’s that simple.
My arguments were never complex and I dumbed it down and retards here still couldn’t answer them.
It is bad trolling to pretend to be retarded.
But it is very clear to me now that gunpla rustles a lot of Jimmies here because when it gets things right that probably threatens people who have attached warhammer to their identity.

Again there is nothing wrong with acknowledging that someone else is doing something right and therefore some notes need to be taken. That’s all.

>>96477373
Okay I’m starting to understand why things are the way they are.
Is there a term or classification for this? Or is it just a case of the tech just not being there yet to have the best of both worlds?
>>
>>96477337
nta but I wouldn't call it a case of GW and Bandai trying to compete and beat each others' standards, more like they simply have different priorities and material conditions. Bandai is served well by investing in extremely well regulated part tolerances, GW's focus is more on fine detail and efficient sprue packing. I build all kinds of models, but to me gunpla are more like lego kits since I don't repaint them, the fun is about correctly following instructions and having a more relaxed experience, and having a model designed to be posed at the end. Warlord's stuff isn't as quality but it's refreshingly cheap and there is a satisfaction in painting minis that can be instructed by real photographs and references.

>saying gw kits should be fun
[citation needed]
>>
>>96477391
Yeah it's basic laws of physics. You can have lots of small parts or a few big parts but you can't have both at once. You need lots of little parts for customisability. We do not want Gundam style sprues and would hate it if we got them because they do not suit our hobby. Jesus, maybe this time that simple concept will reach your brain.
>>
>>96477398
Never looked at it that way.
Does this technically mean that if both companies can’t learn from each other (detailing and parts coming together well) then nobody can yet?

>>96477337
I guess that explains why gunpla models are less detailed but I take it that the trade off is that Bandai can do all sorts of weird shit with their sprues to make the assembly fun and gw can’t hopefully yet?

>>96476986

I thought you were a troll because you were acting like one. Turns out you are just simple.
>>
>>96477410
Maybe, it's a safe bet that Bandai and GW are leaders in their fields for plastic molding at small scale, the only real competition they have is from resin printers and those don't scale as well as plastic molds and have higher operating cost. I would love GW to pivot to making models pose-able again like they did with all the midhammer plastic kits, but at the scale of 40k I think it's beyond what you can do with modern manufacturing unless you decided to make it horribly expensive.
However, I am optimistic that future model kits will at least be pre-drilled for magnetization.
>>

If that's going to be the paint scheme for the rest of your knights maybe spray the armour panels off the knight white, and the under armour parts metallic.
Hopefully that will speed up your process and also keep things nice and smooth.

>>
>>96477566
Oh, that'll do it. Liquitex paints are really thick and not well suited for models unless you dilute them thoroughly. I'd recommend picking up paints intended for miniature models if you can. The premium ones like Vallejo, Citadel, and AK can be pricey but they are very good, I find that Tamiya make good paints for reasonable prices too. Just make sure to check if anything you want to get is meant for airbrushes or not, I accidentally bought some air paints that I couldn't use.

>>96477573
I think you need to worry less about being trolled and ask yourself if you really care that much about anything on 4chan.

Jokes aside not too bad anon. White paints sorta just suck and it's the nature of the beast.

Like >>96477589 said, I recommend priming your model something close to whatever your main color will be, so maybe pick up some matte white primer?
You'll have a hard time painting all those panels with the nicer white model paint w/o an airbrush.

If you insist on not priming white, then maybe prime with a grey (like Rustoleum camo grey) and use something like Pro-Acryl's white.

>>
>>96477621
>i just picked up a paint brush and started painting with no real plan.
Gotta start somewhere, white paint can be a pain in general so it makes sense you had issues if you're a beginner.
Not sure what your starting primer was, but a good rule of thumb is that if you're doing a colour like white or yellow you'll have an easier time if you go with a white or lighter primer like grey at least.
This is all practise and things take time so don't get too hung up about your first couple models.
>>
>>96477610
You can use water with Tamiya Acrylics, but you want to use distilled. If there is a dedicated thinning medium available those are always best. Tamiya are tricky get a handle on with a brush because they dry very quickly and tend to create a skinning layer more easily than the likes of citadel/vallejo/ap/etc

>>96477621
>its really hard to stay in the lines with my brushes
It's cliche, but all it takes is honest effort and practice, and a little research watching other people paint and discuss their methods goes a long way. With platforms like Youtube and Insta you have a massive repository of demonstrable expertise to draw from. One of my favorite channels is Minisodes, and even though he explicitly says his videos are not tuorials, they are very good for teaching approachable painting methods. Improvement comes fast when you are just starting out, but something you must do with any skill if you want to improve, is push yourself to do better than your current comfort level. You need to keep trying things and reach for goals you aren't sure if you can pull off. Most of the time, you'll be pleasantly surprised and motivated to reach higher.

Thanks anon. Personally I find it helped me a lot to always be pulling my paintbrush towards me. I find my hands have the most control with that sort of movement and get really jittery doing anything else cause I drink too much coffee. If I have to do a curve then I keep my hands in position and turn the model as I pull towards me. I've been told many times that this is weird but it works for me

Oh jeez you definitely don't want to try to spray the silver after fussing over the white for so long. I'd just go in with a wide flat brush and do it by hand. If you absolutely can't do it any other way then you can use silly putty to mask off your panels and then spray it. Make sure as soon as the spray is skinned over to the touch, you remove the silly putty so it doesn't droop onto the areas you've painted

Otherwise you might stain the higher surfaces when you paint the recesses.
For example on your gauntlet, you wont have an easy time painting the blue without staining the already done yellow.

Also try to twirl your paintbrush for it to have a point.
Guilliman is a shit mini to paint. He has an awkward pose that makes a lot of areas difficult to access with a brush but still quite visible. Can you detach his arms and backpack?
Usually you want sub assemblies where the arms, wings/backpack/cape, and head are not yet glued on. GW is shit for telling people to assemble the entire minis before painting them. Sometimes you must do sub assemblies.

Anon, stay away from Army Painter brushes. They are utter trash. Hell even GW is miles better than Army Painter.

guilliman progress so far: (this brush + model makes me want to off myself but power through the pain bc its turning out ok )

Like 2 threads ago people were crying Knights now suck. Anyway 3 Doomsday Arks go brrrrr...
>>
>>96478190
Eh... I dunno. GW really seems dedicated to making big knights the "go to" thing instead of Armigers this time.
It'll probably be nerf after nerf until 11th edition and they have to give up and just make all big knights bad again. Just like they do every time with planes, snipers and artillery when they try to make them even slightly playable.
>>
>>96478216
No one on tg actually plays the game, and the ones that do, are bad at it. You should know that by now?
The closest anyone here gets to giving good advice (that isn't painting related) is when they're parroting something they saw someone on YouTube say.

How can tg have people who are bad at the game but also has no one who plays the game

sorry bro the 4++ says no

Is archive anon here? I have a quest for you if you want.

Im not him but im autistic and bored so whats up
>>
>>96478251
Said yes quite easily so far.
>>
>>96478255
Alright it's a big one though. I was gonna ask him to check the threads from the beginning of the year to now and make a tally of how many threads the decal guy has avatarfagged in. He claims he isn't an avatarfag but I feel like I've seen his table of crap every single thread this year. We've had spam happy anons before but I've never seen an attention whore like this here before.
It's a big mission I know.

spawns aren't demons, tzaangors aren't demons, mutalith aren't demons.

there are less demons in that game than there are manlet marines units.

It's pretty close

Honestly wouldnt be too bad if we didnt cop a bunch of points nerfs back to back

>hellbrute mode
Whats helbrute mode?
>>
>>96478353
I hate this model lmao but I'm glad you're excited about him anon
>>
>>96478357
chaos vs chaos with the sides competing for who gets to have a player-controlled helbrute on their side
>>
>>96478355
The upside for you is that the balance slate is apparently going to "big" buff you.
>>
>>96478363
I feel like instead of these bells and whistles they could've easily just made something like
>Marines, Chaos, Necrons, Tyranids MP teams
>Dread, Helbrute, Reanimator, Screamer Killer as 1-per-team heavy support
which would probably be far more appealing to average normalfriend playing this than some gimmick PvP mode

If its more snagga points buffs im going to be irritated. Honestly its so late in 10 ed I dont really care and still enjoy playing games, just feel like all of those points nerfs were unnecessary
>>
>>96478370
why waste effort in this game when they're making SM3 instead?
There won't be any real substance added to this game anymore, just more skins and boss fights and whatever was already worked on at launch but delayed to give the impression of a live service game.

If the SS link isn't included, just post it with an image at the top of the thread and it will get seen.

I refuse to use slopper's threads.

>>96478574
Then report it and keep posting here, don't start shitting up the board because you have beef with a retard online.
