Dataslate when
After years of sneak pic circulating and the announceof Lady Malys, got me thinking how many others interesting models do they keep locked in some half forgotten closet?
>>96506536All of them. That's how they work.MK7 Marines were also sculpted and ready for a long time, we knew this for a while already
>>96506536My schizo theory is all the bangels stuff was supposed to come out alongside mephiston or dante but got delayed so they left it to pile up. Would explain why the sg are more like primaris versions of sg than the more overt remakes like sternguard, terminators, and deathwing knights
>>96506515
>>96506536>>96506547They have most of their stuff ready for years in advance (Primaris Cato Sicarius is rumored to be done at least since 2019) but they are also clearly pivoting, like new Marines having mix & match of armor marks which seems to be the new direction with them, and this started happening after the BA refresh shitshow.
>go to 3 different hobby shops today>tfw the one technical paint im after is out of stock at all of themdidnt realise astrogranite debris was so fucking rare
>>96506581I'm sorry to tell you this but they stopped producing it a year ago.Armageddon dunes and stirland battlemire both got axed as wellSomething about manufacturing issues with the chunkier base pastes
>The Water Caste merchant has meet its match.
Is this the first cute elf GW has ever done?I hope DE get some good rules like Eldar got. Right now they're more of a horde than Orks.
>>96506594>issues Production costs probably increased by 5 cents and they could no longer maintain their profit margins :(
>>96506581Its a good time to switch to the AK paste it come in a big tub and in whatever colour you'd need including a white one that's great for painting over top
>>96506554I dunno ask /lit/
Data slate when? I have a tournament at the end of the month and I want to have time to change my list.
>>96506619DE should be hordier than eldar are - they have clones and don't give a fuck - but the current level of hordiness is too far
>>96506543What is this about MK7 marines?
>>96506594oh for fuck sake, wished i knew that beforehand. all of those shops use the citadel rack and its still listed on it, im guessing it hasnt been updated since. >>96506639is there an alternative to that particular textured paint? i think the colour equivalent for it is mechanicus standard grey so if i can just find a textured paint thats the same im happy to give it a try
>>96506676AK asphalt would be close
>>96506619I like this model a lot but it feels too... safe? It doesn't look nowhere near as edgy as I'd expect from Dark Eldar. Would definitely work with regular Eldar though oddly enough
>>96506619this is literally just shadowheart from BG3not that thats a bad thing tho
>>96506695if you were expecting ultra grim gore and rape, i dont think thats happening. GW is moving away from that for more mass market appeal. i'd expect the new DE aesthetic is gonna be closer to corsairs than old dark eldar
>>96506704What old Dark Eldar models featured 'ultra grim gore and rape'
>>96506669Yeah, but right now their hordiness is out of control. Kabalites 10ppm, Wyches 8ppm. Also because this is a hobby that takes place in the real world and requires you to move real miniatures and also paint them imo most armies should have some value, point dump models with good points to € ratio so you can fill it out. Even two Talos are like 160 pts.
I havent painted miniatures in a good whileAre there ANY decent/good airbrushes nowadays that DONT require you to install a whole goddamn installation aka some cordless kind of airbrush
>>96506697Correct and that's a great thing. I'm sure some people will paint this one with white hair and it will probably look great as well.
I’m painting up the new deathwatch kit as Minotaurs because deathwatch as a faction is mad gay. Minotaurs are based.
>>96506619i honestly believe the old schizo rumours that Yvraine started out as a Malys sculpt. That Visarch started out as a Corsair character, and that Ynncarne was an Avatar of Cegorach
>>96506736i dont really like the hardcore dark eldar stuff like homonculous covens, and i dont really like the power rangers aspect warriors and guardians, but there is a certain streak of post 7e eldar models between the newer farseer sculpts, corsairs, yvraine and the visarch, and now this lady, that really makes me want to put together a pirate space elf army
>>96506733You can get handheld airbrush pumps that are designed for makeup artists to use.I have one and it's great for priming or getting some base colours on but I wouldn't use it for any detailFor some reason mine specified it was safe to put milk through it but I will not be doing that
>>96506747Amazon or a specific site?>wouldnt use it for detailsThats not too bad, I intend to mostly use it in combination with enamel washes, inks, etc
>>96506769To be honest if you are good with an airbrush you could probably use it well, I personally am kind of retarded and have no idea what I'm doing.I got mine from amazon for £25 and it came with a shitty no-name single action airbrush that works well enough for me to get colours on
>>96506520>Are you considering starting dark eldar with the reveals?No, I already have dark eldarI might grab the archon kit sometime to make another dracon though
>>96506619>Is this the first cute elf GW has ever done?they've had cute elf sculpts for a while but the official paint jobs havent helped
Huh, figures that GW would drop all the new Dark Eldar stuff on a random Monday when I'm insanely busy.The two new kits are both pretty. Darn cool. I really like the options and the fact that the archon is kit bashable with the last 15 years of infantry model. Malys's face is weirdly soft for a DE but other than that I kind of like the model. Feels like she's missing more flowing skirts or cloth of some kind though.Codex cover art looks cool but I am not happy that 28 of my models are going to Legends soon alongside my Tantalus.New pain token system sounds cool and I'm really interested to see how that plays out.
>>96506834>caring about the rules when the codex is going to last half a year
>>96506741>because deathwatch as a faction is mad gay. Minotaurs are based.You wouldn't recognise homosexuality if your face was covered in cocks
>>96506581>>96506594>>96506594It’s because the texture is actually little bits of plastic and they’re moving away from that.
>>96506838Look, some of us already have fully painted armies and actually play the game more often than once a year.Besides, codexes are going to carry over into 11th until they get new ones anyway. And it's unlikely Legends units come back even if they do get another codex.
>>96506870>Besides, codexes are going to carry over into 11th until they get new ones anyway.With how pitiful 10th has been we can only hope that is not the case, for once.
>>96506834>Malys's face is weirdly soft for a DEJust be happy.
>>96506849I highly doubt that.They do plastic injection moulding and sell plastic paint in plastic tubs.A tiny bit more plastic is not going to be any kind of issue to them.
>>96506704In Mike Brooks' Lelith novel, Dark Eldar are misunderstood punk rockers accepting of everyone with a highly respected transgender community stretching to Craftworlders and their Paths and only Vect and Rakarth are evil.
>>96506908this is why I hate mike brooks
>>96506676They still sell Astrogranite just not the super chunky version.
>>96506908Rakarth and Vect are two of the most evil bastards in the Galaxy that hardly proves them anything less evil.
>>96506915that's cool but that isn't what he wants
>>96506881
>reading caiphas cain>the regiment only has 2000 troops in it>including their POGswere all regiments this small?a WW2 soviet regiment had 3000 men in it and that was considered small
>>96506942Don't think about 40k numbers too hard.It keeps happening that battles across entire sectors have less causalities than ww1
normal repulsor or executioner? black templars so I think I can get a multi-melta on the latter?
>>96506949predator or land raider like a real man
>>96506942In 40k books numbers are nothing but placeholders for "lots" or "few" depending on context.
>>96506885Well that’s because you’re dumb.
>>96506953I have an old predator already. The hover tank stuff has grown on me.
>>96506949Land Raider Crusader like the other anon saidI have to get my one back out and spruce it up actually
>>96506942A "regiment", as in a particular regiment like "237th Cadian" is normally around a thousand men. A "regiment", as in the entirety of Cadians or the entirety of Catachans is obviously much larger.Regiments also have different specializations that influence their number. An infantry regiment would have far more bodies in it than an artillery regiment.Also, real world considerations like attrition and replenishment apply, so the headcount varies across time as well.
>>96506949I think you can get a multi melts on everything as BT
>gladiator tank has 7 fucking guns for some reason>and thats even with bunching all the rocket pods etc into a "defensive array" ir whatever its calledbut why?
Using all my luck for the year to get them buffs
>>96506994Used to be options that cost extra. Now they're all free so you always take them.
>>96506994>main gun>left sponson gun>right sponson gun>pintle mounted gun>missiles
>>96507001that would only be the pintle mount, the rest is just on the kit that you cant optionally take
>>96506695>>96506704To me, she looks like just the standard kabalite, with a crazy hairdo, and unique weapons. I didn't expect rape and gore, heck, not even a cleavage, but I did expect some luxury and ostentatiousness from THE Lady Malais. Ancient and prestigious leader among a race of decadent sadists.Like this >>96506742 look at that headdress! And the fashion dress! I expected something that doesn't fall behind Yvraine in crazy fashion.
>>96507010>main gunstock>sponsonsoptional upgrade>pintleoptional upgrade>missileoptional upgradegladiator>main gun>co-ax>rear twin heavy stubber>defensive array>hull mounted twin heavy bolterthen the optionals of>missile>pintle
>>96506942A regiment is as big or small as it needs to be for the story. In some gaunt ghosts books they are down to a couple hundred, and then they are back to thousands.. other regiments are 10s of thousands.
>sent a couple images to WD on a whim>actually get a reply they'd like to feature themuhh what do I do, I've posted them here before
>>96507028post em anon
>>96507028Tell them you would like some money or some online shop vouchers if they print them. Problem solved.
>>96507022You're mistaking the gladiator for some other tank then
>>96507028They're gonna show your full fucking name anon, don't do it. I'm serious, they doxxed the huge admech walker conversion anon.
How did the Tau get a reputation as being cowardly? That one I never understood.
>>96507048what happened to admech anon, was the schizo finally able to track him down and kill him due to the dox?
>>96507057He has gone into hiding. Wise choice if you ask me.
>>96507053Long ranged troops, little to no melee troops, classic flanderisation.
>>96507040maybe it was the repulsor then?
>>96506520>GammonZilla edition
>>96507048couldn't he just ask them to not print his name or something
>>96507028nobody cares, get your minis on the magazine, if you're really scared about your name, give them a pseudonym or something, they won't give a shit.
>>96507028You are not the first person to post here that has been featured in WD, i can promise you that.The guy that made this posted his build progress hereLouise Sugden posted here as savage ork guy and she worked for GW for years, even becoming the face of the painting show they did.
>>96507067yep, but that's a land raider equivalent, and has half its transport capacity in this configuration
>>96507074the one with the same transport capacity doesn't actually have that much, despite looking messy
>>96507028shouldn't have said anything, nobody would have remembered (unless you are frequentely posting them) but now some schizoid freak is going to comb through the archives to look for your models every month and when he does the gloves are off
>>96507082still has 5 guns stock compared to the land raiders 3
>>96507088it depends exclusively on how you count the gunsthe land raider has 6 heavy weapons, and one storm bolterthe repulsive has 4 heavy weapons, and one stubber
>>96506908Mike Brooks is a hack and a shitty writer.
>>96507126Add him to the pile
>>96506908I dont believe you.
>>96507028Use pseudonym if you are scared>>96507084this, you shouldn't have said anything hereUnless you are a recognizable avatarfag like decalmutant, lamenttranny or someone like this, then it wouldn't matter.
I own DG, Emp Children and Nids(who I have never played)Whats the better Melee marine army? Templars or Space Wolves?
>>96506908WeirdHe potrayed them as petty ass evil elves in his enjoyable Ork novel
>>96507152A *third* marine army, anon? Really?
>primaris shotgun
>>96506908>mike brooksMay Allah burn him and his family alive. In total war thrones of britannia
>>96507158Heres the twistI will replace all their heads with my tons of spare Emp Children headsThey will actually just be larping emp kids
>>96507159Space wolves scout. It's more Primaris shit
>>96507159That's no shotgun, that's some gay energy weapon.
>>96506536Games Workshop is a textbook example of retarded business practices, so they probably have entire army refreshes ready to go. Especially in this age of CAD designed miniature models. Think about it, these tards have a full time team or budget to churn out miniatures, compare that against the output of content creators behind paywalls and that should give you an idea on how they could refresh an entire army rather fast.
>>96507170A plasma shotgun?
>>96507173>Games Workshop is a textbook example of retarded business practiceslol their accounts beg to differ
>>96507173the limit factor isn't how much they can sculpt in any given timeframe, but how many moulds they can commission without angering the stakeholders, and how much they can release at once before they saturate their consumers.The releases are spaced out because their average customer only spends a given amount per month, and it wouldn't spend more if gw released more
gotta love LGS's where>if theres no game booking system for game night (i.e just show up and find an opponent) then the players will form a clique and book with an opponent cor the next evening and not tell anyone as they don't need to and take all the tablespace every week>if there is a game booking system, the players will just continually book games with the clique and take all the tablespace every week
>>96507173>Games Workshop is a textbook example of retarded business practicesWhere's your multibillion business if you're so smart anon
>>96507188>the kliqtime to join it
>>96507173They could make more money if they went out of house for production but they don't want to.They manufacture in their factory in Nottingham and they don't want to compromise on that which is incredibly based.Yeah their profit margins are not as high as they could be if they moved all the injection moulding to china but they wont
>>96506554All three of the Mike brooks Ork books are from Ork POVs.There are chapters from other faction's POV, as a great part of Orks is others' reactions to Ork shenanigans, but you'll want to read brutal kunnin, warboss, and da big dakka. All great books of Orky tomfoolery.
>>96507188Both situations are solved by talking with the people there.Have you tried talking with the people there?
>>96507156>in his enjoyable Ork novel>enjoyable
>>96507204I have, why do you think it got changed to a booking system?the only solution is to break up the clique but the LGS is limpwristed and wont do that
Kroot GF who thinks backrubs are literally sex
Dark Eldar refresh is coming. I can feel it.
>>96507213>the only solution is to break up the cliqueor talk with them
>>96507074Jesus Christ it looks so bad>add bolters>and minigun (I know it's supposed to be thunderfire canon)>and 3 different missiles pods>and stabber on top>and two more stabbers on the back>and finally, we need to squish this sculpt into our standart game table and L-shaped terrain
>>96507224Not seen her stuff in a while, though i assume she left twitter
>>96507159Votrans gun, obviously.
>>96507226tried that too but in regards to "hey i'm not having fun with 10th, can we play something else?" (the answer was no)
>>96507201If they lost their edge in quality I'd lose my reason to buy their boxes instead of 3D printing, so that makes some sense to me.
>>96507237>tried that too but in regards to something elsehave you tried doing that in regards to the thing you were talking about 5 seconds ago?
>>96507210I liked itI read it before playing Rogue Trader so my Commoragh looked way way way different to the Comorragh in the game
>>96507159Looks more like votann desu.
>>96507074I like those ammo cases on the sideIt seems like a design flaw and a dangerous weak spot but I like the boxes
>>96507203Thanks for the recommend anon, much appreciated
>>96507074Now it's just another marine tank.
>>96507233trying too hard
I think I should judge a factions coolness by their vehicles before their battle line unit, since vehicles seem to be mandatory.
>>96507257trimmed repulsor too
>>96507241not yet, but it'd be a waste of time>hey people who I know are stubborn and wont change even if the store had to change because of you, and wont change about anything else because you're 40k paypigs who won't play a single other game but it's latest edition, stop doing that thing please
>>96507264Tyranids confirmed for lamest faction
>>96507224Is she happy from Malys model?
>>96507270>not yet, but it'd be a waste of timeAs opposed to talking about it on /40kg/, right? cuck.
>>96507271*besttheir (living) tanks are the coolest shit around
>>9650727540 kilograms allows me to vent
>>96507270>Hey group of people having fun and enjoying themselves together, all of you need to change to suit MY needs and tastes
>>96507286Maybe you should get some friends instead.
>>96507287>dude just conform to how WE play the game despite how unfun it may be for you, otherwise you dont play at all because WE refuse to diversify our tastes, even if its just giving something a go once>oh and you cant bring a friend down to play what you want either, because WE booked all the tables
>>96507272Calling Malys "fat now" and looking for "Malys fail compilations" would imply not.
https://x.com/doiStudio/status/1964923158366220340Bruh
>>96507215>Literally cannot stop farting.
I primed some minis via Vallejo Black Primer but after a day the paint can get scratched off the surface too easily, I don't know if I put in too much thinner so the grip of the primer is weak. I'm painting the mini but need to repaint scratched surfaces a lot.
>>96507328Stop scratching them then, silly.
>>96507317I prefer Rem but she also cool
>>96507188You're that guy from last week who complained about sitting on the table then asking people to hurry up their game so they can play with you right?
>>96507336Rem appears to be on the opposite side
>>96507107>depends on how you countHow the fuck do you arrive at "4 HW + 1 stubber"
>>96507341The goon titan
>>96507341I believe this is referred to as "awful taste but great execution".
May wards mom is big gay
>>96507337I was waiting for a game for a good 4 and a half hours at that point and yeswrong thing to do? maybe, nit there was no other way to possibly get a game that eveningbut everyone booked in advance and didnt tell anyone, including the store, which is inconsiderateI arrive early to get a table and have to give all the tables up because they arrive in pairs as they organized an opponent already and, once again, the LGS is too limpwristed to do anything
>>96507351who
>>96507267I genuinely want to try something like this, but going further:If you swap parts between the two variants you can remove the missile pods over the side doors.Thiking of replacing the front guns with twin assault cannons like picrel
>47 collage submissions last monthDo you think we'll get more or fewer people this month? Are there any newfrens who don't know about it? Maybe 40kg is around 50 anons? It's hard to tell.
>>96507159As much as I'd love to say votann, it's definitely more of an imperium gun. The only thing going for votann is the leather strap with bullet like on the yeagirs shotguns, but votann guns don't have the armored parts towards the front, and their shotguns are revolving. No bottom ammo magazine, clip, whatever it's called in this case.My guess is guard.
>>96507362A grav raider… neat
>>96507377I'll be missing this months collage again. Not kitbashing any characters anytime soon. Maybe next month.I do love seeing them though.
>>96507381The theme this month was changed to "any kitbash" to not be too similar to the last one.
Another day, another player down form the crusade. Can’t really blame them desu but it sucks triying to find someone to sub in. I wouldn’t want to drive 45 minutes to catch a game either.>>96507353Why didn’t you book a game ahead of time? It’s a very rare LGS that does random assignment anymore. It’s not like the old days where you couldn’t contact people ahead of time. Theres usually plenty of looking for game threads.
>>96507385Ah, I see. Unfortunately I'll still be absent. Unless I hard shift to Orks within the month (it's possible) I'll be working on my votann for the time being as well as my chorfs. Just ordered that starter box.
>>96507377I think less people just because kitbashing isnt something everyone is into.I ordered a kill team to mess around with but I didnt realise it's on pre-order
>>96507380I think it looks neat.I'm not opposed to the "turreted land raider" that is the repulsor. I think it's a fun idea to trade some transport capacity for firepower, that was kinda the point of the crusader on the other side of the spectrum.What I don't like about the repulsor, like most people who take issue with it, is how many guns it has sticking out.It can be salvaged. The impulsor/gladiator I think there's a whole lot more work needed.
>>96507404Agreed, can’t fucking stand the repulsor and executioner
>>96507159What if horus heresy?
>>96507390my work gives me very short notice if I can take the day off (i.e the day before) and because I work lates, the LGS would be closed before I can tell themand as previously said, the players dont post onna groupchat about looking for games, they'll find an opponent (usually in person/the game night in the previous week) and book it via word of mouth and not tell anyone else
>>96507377I think I'm gonna be skipping this month, I'm not really big on kitbashing unless we count a simple head and arm swap as such
>>96507317>no white stockingsfail
>>96507404My biggest gripe with the repulsor stems from a bigger problem with 40k as a whole, which is the range 1000" instant-death gun. Every game I've played against it has been an extremely unfun game of keep-away with it since my armies have nothing that can even come close to the ranged firepower it can put out so in forced to try and melee it or simply ignore a single model that can wipe entire units in a single turn.
>>96507414and contrary to some of my earlier posts, i've spoken to the LGS about introducing a booking system so it's clear who has booked and for when so everyone knows, but that will create the problem of "the same players will take up the space every week as they get the game night off work already"
>>96507424I mean, that's a kitbash by definition...
>>96507431Oh. Well maybe I'll try to whip up something then
>>96507427The 2 attacks on a 3+ laser destroyer?
Has the Tau Navy literally ever won a battle?
>>96507429i've also said in the groupchat that can people start doing that, so i'll wait til thursday to see if they actually will (they wont, theres nothing currently and the players are lazy as fuck)
>>96507414>>96507429>>96507467Why are you replying to yourself
>Drukhari getting pain tokens redesigned into maneuver tokens like AeldariIs this... Is this the fewer rerolls we were promised? Will there actually be a codex with FEWER rerolls than the index at last?
>>96507377For what it's worth, I'm already done with my submission.
>>96507377I got a bit overwhelmed by it (im the dude trying to kitbash a big mek on warbike). Most likely ill bail on the shokk attack gun and make it less complicated
>>96507460Coupled with the 40 attacks from its other guns, it always wiped out whatever it looked at. Sometimes multiple targets.
>>96507494From my reading they're being reworked into a token pool that you use to activate extra unit abilities
This seems like a pretty damn good value box, doesn't it? I have the following Drukhari stuff:Assembled1 combat patrol (archon, 10x kabs, 5xincubi, 1xraider, 1xravager)To assemble8 Wyches1 Raider1 Talos This seems like a great expansion to that, right? How much do these usually cost?
>>96507427Insane worldview bearer alert: I think the game doesn't work well without the "either shoot the nearest enemy unit or take a test".But most people don't want an army game, they want a hero game.No troops, only elites. They don't get why troops exist or how to use them.I'm not saying you should be forced to take chaff in your army, I'm saying going full elite should be a gambit/gamble.
>>96507377Damn, some really nice stuff here. For some reason I was under the impression we'd be lower level on average.
>>96507505I thought this was a combat patrol at first im ngl.
>>96507501And yet the meta choice is the cheaper Gladiator Lancer with the same beefy laser (with bonuses to hit and wound) and fewer extras.
>>96507506As someone who absolutely loves running green tide, I agree. I think there's not nearly enough battleline units in most games.
>>96507473adding extra stuff I think was relevant to post
>>96507498You coul make the warbike a helicopter and have the shokk attack gun be the rotorblades of it
I got a really cool piece of foam from an air conditioner I bought that looks like a big boxy industrial structure. Specifically a water treatment facility.How can I cover the foam with a surface ready for painting? Do I just prime it and apply some type of concrete texture paint? Then I can 3D print or hand make some greebles like water drainage, doors and vents and stick it where it makes sense.For the top I want to fill it with epoxy resign mixed with green dye to make it looks like gross polluted water.>>96507509We have some truly good painters. They seem to be somewhat mentally stable and not unhinged as well, but maybe they just don't attach their worst shitposts to their art.
>>96507496Show us anon
>>96507528pva glue to seal it, spray primer could just melt it
>>96507530It's a Legion of The Damned marine. I've already posted it a couple of times so don't want to spam (>>96504967).

>>96507527I've got a few spare assault on black reach deffkoptas, theres probably a way isn't could do it

>>96507528>For the top I want to fill it with epoxy resign mixed with green dye to make it looks like gross polluted water.Gross polluted water would be absolutely impossible to see through, while if you make it gross polluted water that's arbitrarily transparent enough it won't read like a scaled down massive body of water. The good use of that empty space together with clear resin is to put some eye catching thing in there, like an archeotech reactor (where you can play with neon lights too) and/or some monster being kept in suspended animation in the liquid for study.Otherwise I'd just tell you to flip the box over, no real need for a sci fi water plan to have an open roof, a closed roof adds playable ground for flying troops, and you can convey the purpose of the facility with various simpler tubes or portholes or signs.if you

>>96507501I have no clue how you deal with actually good guns like DDA if the Repex is too much for you
>>96507575I could do it*
>>96507509if you compare what's on the collage to the torrent of slop that gets posted to faction specific subreddits the average painter here is significantly above the average redditor
>>96507601agreed, and I'm one of them.
>>96507201producing locally is fine and all but it's not production process that drive GW prices. considering they are making money simply by running stores, no sales required, is proof enough that they don't need their plastic to be worth it's weight in silver
>>96507597I guess I wasn't clarifying well enough. My problem isn't that I can't deal with it, my problem is that it's not fun to deal with. I think anything that encourages staying all the way back in your territory while being able to deal extreme amounts of damage isn't fun to play against. It's not engaging.Out of curiosity, what would you classify as a good gun though?
>>96507179They have a captive audience of uncritical whales, they can afford to be retarded
>>96507601Still, golden demon winning stuff doesn't get posted here because people don't want to get doxxed by a bunch of schizos or even associate themselves with this place. Its pretty sad
>>96507188Lmao it's you again. Assuming you haven't already established yourself as thatguy at your lgs, next time you want a game you need to hop on the discord and politely ask for a game before you waste your evening again haranguing people
>>96507188I would play with you anon : )
>>96507188You are just gonna have to make friends or something there otherwise you'll never get a game in.
>>96507213If my lgs took measures to keep me from playing with my friends because some random autist was too lazy and entitled to book games for himself I'd be furious.
>>96507377since I only play orks and kitbashing a vehicle for them is brain dead easy I thought why not make it more interesting and create a proper painboy ? the syringe makes me mad tho
>>96507615there are some legitimately incredible painters on /tg/, they just rarely if ever post their stuff in this threadfor example check out the treasure island bust that was finished yesterday in /wip/

>>96507188This is extremely solvable.>Hey guys, if I've got a day free would anyone want a game next week?Once you know what days you have free you can then message people saying yes to see if they're also free. If not, shoot for next week. You're trying to change an entire group's system to meet your needs, you oaf. Try levelling with them instead.

>>96507612If a repex can stand all the way back and wipe your army you guys aren't playing with enough terrain
>>96507348It's a commission paint job, so someone spent an ungodly amount of money for that, and the artist just did exactly as instructed (I bet the commissioner provided all the artwork references), so it's really just a matter of awful taste and a shitton of money.
>>96507377>3 weeks worth of business trips in August kept me from finishing my Skorpekh Lord for the collageI need to think of something to kitbash

>>96507328Paint on Primer seems easier to come off in general, Pro-Acryl’s paint on primer comes off at the point the paint handle attached to the base.

>>96506926>>96506881Why the fuck do they always paint those deep man lines around the mouth like that? Can they not dunk everything in tub of wash?

>>96507674everyone always says "you shouldnt force players to play something they dont like"I agree, you shouldnt make people conform to what you want.but why is it okay for them to expect me to conform to what they want? genuine question i'd like to hear an answer for
>>96507828They don't *want* anything for you. They don't think about you at all. You can't just impose yourself on people who are minding their own business.
>>96507828Nta but I've lurking on that conversation and I'd be you I'd not bother discussing it here.You have attracted the worst kind of people to share a problem with: people who don't know the situation and think they know a solution to it.While I could play devil's advocate and say "you didn't give all the information" it doesn't matter, nobody can give all the information anyway and it wouldn't solve the issue.A lot of the people replying to you think they got it figured out and that's the end of it for them."Just talk".You know it's not a real solution, I'd be you I'd stop wasting my time trying to argue with people who are now more concerned about defending their shitty solution than understanding where you're coming from and why their "solution" doesn't work.To answer your original question regarding that closed group of people, I'd say either only organize games really in advance on the few times you know you'll get the day off (hopefully there is some in the year for you). Or make/find your own place to play the hobby.Now I will brace myself for the incoming fire.

They can be replaced separately but if it's a cheap airbrush you might as well replace the entire assembly.
I was given a gift of War Dogs as a gift from a family member for losing a lot lbs. The problem is, I have never painted knights before, and I am at a complete loss of how to do the basing on them. Any reccomendations on cool bases for larger things like that? Please don't ask how much weight I lost, it's embarassing.

>>96507932I like to use rocks on my bases. Like, actual rocks. You can gather them yourself outside but be sure to wash them because you don't want to muck up your brushes if you paint over them (which I recommend doing). If you think you'll need a bunch of rocks of similar size, which you probably would for knights, you can order boxes of them from Amazon or eBay.>Please don't ask how much weight I lost, it's embarassing.Don't be embarrassed, anon. It's weight you *lost* that makes it a victory.

>>96506908>>96506918>>96507126>>96507134>>96507162>>96507909That book is about a toxic and abusive romance between Lelith and her childhood friend.She proves to Vect and the rest of the Dark City that she is strong enough to reveal her weakness (her love) to the world. She proves that Vect is too weak to open himself to others and love and beloved. She is isn't afraid to be vulnerable and that's the essence of true strength. She is genuinely strong and the Dark City worship her for it.
>>96507962They're built and ready for paint I'm just in a csm mood right now. I'll get to them eventually.
>>96507969That sounds fucking stupid and I don't know how you managed to make me want to read 40k shit EVEN MORE.
>>96507969I still do not believe you at all.

>>96507969Trying to write a story about a Dark Eldar recognizing toxic relationships is like having an Ork protagonist who tries to overcome mob mentality and peer pressure.
>>96507996If I'm gonna read toxic lesbos I'll get the good stuff, and only fan fictions ever dare get to the good stuff
>>96507968Flavor wise? Orks or playing Ogryn spam IG. Gameplay wise? Your a faction of all elite 40mm models that have alot of wounds, but kinda slow and cumbersome, not that much shooting outside of a few specifc units. Surprisingly Dark Angels with 3 deathwing knights squads, Centurions and that Wrath of the Rock detachment to make your units tanky. You even can use Ravenwing command squads to be the hard hitting cav units. Your just running a bunch of meaty beast sticks up the table.
>>96508037> Ork protagonist who tries to overcome mob mentality and peer pressure.It exists. It's Grotsnik's novel.It's awesome.
Nid bros, is bonesword and lash whip the only viable loadout for a winged hive tyrant?

>>96508038Share, please

>>96508072I'm not in the state where I can blow all that money on a broken faction my friends wont enjoy and will probably end up being nerfed to oblivion. I'll just keep with my Dark Angels and Eldar for now. Maybe next edition it will be better.
>>96508074Horus murked him now
>>96507996Britcucks can't write yuri, not even toxic yuri. They can write lesbians, sure, but their minds are too full of allah and beans on toast and their hearts too barren to comprehend the sublime wonder of TRVE YVRI
>>96508057>>Everyone hates how they currently playThere was never a single moment in which people didn't hate how knights played.They were always either way too strong, way too boring, way too swingy, or any combination of these.The game without facings, without damage tables, and without more complex shooting or melee interactions, simply cannot make knights fun to play and play against.It's like expecting a game of 40k with only 10 separate infantry models to be as engaging as a game of kill team, it simply cannot be done, the rules are too simple.
>>96508082>>96508085Why is 40k just a polical stomping ground for people to preach their message about modern left vs right issues.
>>96508087Isn't Mike American though?

>>96508089Yea but big robots make the setting more fun and immersive so i'll allow it.
>>96508037>an Ork protagonist who tries to overcome mob mentality and peer pressure.I mean, that's basically Mozrog Skragbad. He just wanted to ride squig and hoont monstars, but because he was so good at it orks kept following him around and calling him "Boss" so now he's an unwilling, unhappy warboss.
>>96508095
>>96508102Then write more engaging rules specifically for such large units!
>>96508098He's a GW vassal and a leftist, he's spiritually a eurobritcuck regardless of where his heritage lies.
>>96507865>>96507875true, but then quite simply: how am I supposed to play anything at all?i've tried pitching other systems and games in the past and no one wants to play any of it, and it's not like I can just show up with say, necromunda and 2 gangs to force someone to playit is very much play 40k or dont play at all, or the 3rd option of "bring a friend in" but thats not always avaliable
>>96508089They were super fun back when the kit first came out and you could ally ONE into your army, the problem simply came when they made your entire army them. But there was a year or two where everyone had their own cool knight with their own heraldry they would ally into their imperial armies and it was pretty soulful, they weren't too broken, good enough to give some of the weaker armies a boost.

Yeah, you brought a squad of lascannon devs and a land raider. Oh, you tried shooting a big, but he lived because 6HP and you missed a shot? Too bad, they just killed all your anti-tank and now your remaining army LITERALLY can't hurt these things unless you get behind them, but they move twice as fast as you do! Good luck!

There are a total of 11 Imperial Knight/Chaos Knight players in my LGS. This edition they only want to play their Knights but never play each other and complain to the staff that people want to exclude them from games. Fuck Knights.
>>96508218>Knights were even worse when the game had those things THOUGHBEIT.because they were also ridiculously overpoweredone is an issue of interactability, the other is an issue of balance, the current system addresses neither, save perhaps the balance if we're lucky
>>96506619Doesn't look like a Dark Eldar model to me but a craft-worlder.
>>96508142That was not the authorial intent, but it is a funny reading of 40k. Especially now as they toe around the fact that the Emperor is literally, by definition, a little 'g' god and subvert some of the earlier HH stuff that was a little too 'these are just my religious beliefs actually' like the last church.

What army needs the least amount of models?
>>96508474Kniggets obviously
>>96508439One, the Tau are called collectivists, equalists, and unionists in the lore. Those are code words for communism. The Tau lore is based on Animal Farm and 1984, which are warnings against communism. Fascists were never about equality.The Imperium fits the modern definition of fascism. And Matt Ward called the Imperium Fascist.
>>96508474Knights and Custodes.
>>96508480>the modern definitionCope.
>>96508364Unfathomably based.
>>96508486Never heard of Umberto Eco
>>96508474Knights, Custodes. You can get oddly small Imperial Guard armies by going all in on tanks.
>>96508480>Fascists were never about equalityThe t'au have literal caste system you are born into.
>>96508485Interesting, Ive been thinking of starting Custodes because of how ez they are to paint.
>farsight enclavesI don't think i've seen a non-farsight enclaves tau army in at least a decade
>>96508495>Literally just dunk them in gold
>>96508492I don't care what wordgames commietroons play to justify their rape of the english language. Words have meanings.
>>96508494If you read Tau lore like the Fire Warrior novel, this aspect of Tau culture is addressed.It's said that all Castes are equal. The loweest Earth Caste dirt farmer is equal to the highest Ethereal in his ivory tower. In theory but in relity some are the first among equals.This fits communism 1 to 1.
>>96508500and they still look sexy but whats the news on better quality models for them?
>>96508480The Tau are, per the literal Doctrine of Fascism, fascists. The Imperium likewise is way too decentralized to be fascist.
>>96508496Every tau army I've seen has always been the whitebois. I miss when the yellow taus were the posterboys.

>>96508480Not him but Matt Ward is a retarded nigger. It's not really his fault really since the 'modern definition of fascism' is genuinely just 'thing I don't agree with' in common usage.

>>96508575nta but generally knight players don't like playing about other knight players, it's just a worse version of kill team / titanicus at that point.Part of the appeal of knights is being the army of super heavy units, but if everyone's super heavy, the balance breaks.Because they're FAT
>>96508511retards on this website try to le debate what fascism is so that literally nothing is fascist. Nazis werent fascist. Staling wasnt fascist. Mao wasnt fascist. America wasnt fascist. Nothing is REAL fascism.If you use fascism as like "mean authoritarian government with lots of anti intellectualism and racism" like 99% of English speakers including academics then yes the Imperium is fascist.
>>96508250>make a general all round list>still doesn't have enough anti vehicle in it to deal with knights spamI dont blame players for avoiding them desu, i bet the knights players would be against versing a heavily skewed anti vehicle list too
>>96508606>some people don't want stuff to be X>99% of people use X wrongYeah some people aren't honest and some people are wrong. So what? Your point?
>>96507855My archon
Gue'vasa units that are shit like a turretless Leman Russ, with Tau missilepods on the back like a matilda hedgehog, or a Rail Gun that has clearly been jury rigged on a trailer attached to like a civilian ass truck that the Civilized world had before the T'au integrated them.
>>96508582Why the hell would you think I'm blaming the poison? I'm blaming the poisoner.

>>96507751Is there a today's /tg/ Suggs equivalent?
>>96508566>Fascism requires centralizationLiterally all power derives from the God-Emperor
>>96508606Fascism is a centralized, totalitarian (not meaning police state, but rather that the state considers every aspect of life to fall under its purview), corporatist (meaning bringing the economy under the control of state-controlled guilds), imperialist (as in the state is actively seeking to expand its influence, does not have to involve military conquest) form of government. It is not inherently racist, or even culturally homogenous. But it does seem to make sure that every part of society acts according to the interests of the state. Everything within the state, Nothing outside the state, Nothing against the state. The Tau is the closest thing the setting has to fascism. The Imperium can’t be fascist because it doesn’t have anywhere near the level of centralization required to actually bring everything within the state.
>>96508650That’s more of a theocratic feudalistic “divine right”. The Emperor isn’t actually calling most of the shots.
>>96508606I like the pathetic sniveling appeal to the authority of 'academics' you snuck in there. Fascism is a distinct political ideology with a set of stated principles practiced by mostly rational people from real historical parties who expressed those principles to constituencies in order to obtain power so we can actually use that as a litmus test. Or we can be mental toddlers and say anything authoritarian and violent is fascism.
>>96508663Its crazy getting older and realizing how stupid the general public is, it almost makes you sympathetic to the elites and how they treat them like cattle...almost...
REAL FASCISM HAS NEVER BEEN TRIED
>>96508671the 'elites' are stupid too
>>96508606>Staling wasnt fascist. Mao wasnt fascist>Real communism has never been tried
>>96508649I don't think there's anyone that paints in such a colorful, vibrant style right now. At least not in the warhammer generals or /wip/
>>96508630You are blaming the poison. If you lie to me or say something wrong, I still hold responsibility on believing you.Most people don't care for the truth, reality isn't something they want to understand.There always will be misinformation, even if everyone was the most honest we'd still get things wrong.There always were library, and most people didn't care for them.Now they have the libraries on their own person every singly moment of their life. And they still don't care a yota about the library.Information, to most people, is a question of: "does it serve me?"
>>96508678Yea to a degree but they seem to follow the Tau's mindset of the greater good to the extreme.
>>96508618its language. if 99% use the word that way thats what the word means and if you use archaic century old definitions you are just an isolated schizo retard who is ostracized from society and also most likely autistic
>>96508541I'm reading it as they can still shoot, but the observer units don't get their own bonus, for whatever reason. You'd figure since it's their information, they should still be able to benefit from it (if not more than the other standard troops they're forwarding it to). Probably nothing more than GW emphasizing that it's a team activity or something.
The general thread of warhammer forty thousand
>>96508690Nigga, you're schizophrenic, I'm not blaming the poison, I'm blaming the poisoner, why the hell would you think I'm blaming the poison?
>>96508676It was tried, and then three globe-spanning empires teamed up to crush it, and the resulting world order is specifically designed to prevent it from forming again.
>>96508683I think you meant>real fascism hasn't been triedbecause thats essentially what these retards are saying without realizing it
>>96508701We are generally retarded
>>96508701I'm embarrassed for us too...
>>96508692>they seem to follow the Tau's mindset of the greater goodYou're unbelievably stupid if you think the only greater good they're after is one other than theirs
>>96508687Maybe that guy who did the aberrant and the neurothicctor. He's almost ad good as sugg was when she was here and has a similarly bold style
>>96508709You just litteraly denid the USSR was communist. Nobody has denied Italy was fascist.
>>96508709Multiple people are telling you exactly what it is and they're able to do that because the fascists were real people who 1) wrote what they believed down2) tried itThis happened several times. I'm sorry you're stupid.
>>96507159It's kroot.They literally have this gun already.
>>96508721You know this place is at a point where I actually prefer talk about communism and fascism instead of a millionth meltdown about lore, kneepads or marine height
What's Vashtorr up to
>>96508726you need to work on your reading comprehension
>>96508722You don't think these people delude themselves into thinking they are helping others? The god complex some of these elite have is immeasurable
>>96508726No I didn't. You can be communist and fascist, even under the incredibly strict definition like this post >>96508655 The Tau have policies that could exist in both communist and fascist socities

>>96508697Language is a code, if you muddy the code it loses its purpose.You can change the meaning of words but you cannot change reality, so people will find new words to name what you're erasing.Better be lone than in bad company.A sane person to an insane society must appear insane.

Read em and weep. Matt Ward the lead writer of 40K in 5th and 6th ed saying the Imperium is fash
>>96508762>society is insane if language evolvesBuddy... fag does not mean a bundle of sticks. It means homosexual. Like my homie Abbadon the Despoiler or any other chaos character.
>>96508744Tbf Mussolini did congratulate Stalin on successfully subverting the gayass bolshevik movement into a form of “Red Fascism”, and in most ways modern China would meet the textbook definition of a fascist state too.I don’t know if I’d say a communist state can exist at the same time as a fascist state, but I would certainly say that communist states either inevitably collapse or become fascist.
>>96508778Matt Ward doesn’t get to decide what fascism is. If he says the Imperium is fascist, but then the Imperium is described as not being fascist, then he is just wrong.
>>96508730where?
>>96508773Disgust from the disgusting, how quaint
The T'au Empire is ruled by Elemental Councils filled with members of the five castes, each chosen based on merit. The Councils also contain delegates from the T'au allied races, called Kindred souls, who represent the interests of their species and advise the T'au.How is that fascist?
>>96508796
Can you all fuck off to pol or sigmarxism or horus galaxy please
>>96508778And? JK Rowelong said Dumbledore was gay, and that's objectively not true. At no points in Harry Potter books does he refer to having a husband or boyfriend, or infact a romantic or sexual partner of any kind.You can't just say things. If George Lucas said the Deathstar was blue, it would still be grey.

>>96508730Nice catch.
>>96508802
>>96508801Fascism =/= Dictatorship. The system you describe is still very collectivist in ensuring that society conforms to the council’s will and the Tau Empire State’s interest always come first.

Just post something, anything, I dont care as long as its not more off topic shitThinking about a wash on the face to bring out the details. Tried shooting some purple contrast from below to give it a nice shadow but feel like it would've just been better to use a purple acrylic from below and paint / airbrush reds over the top of it. Also what colour eyes would look better, green or yellow?

It's my first attempt at a glow using my airbrush.
>>96508867You're trying way too hard, anon. Fucking breathe.
>>96508809>sigmarxismI know this community lives and breathes autism. But man that’s a step too far. People shouldn’t be using fictional ips much less plastic and sometimes metal toys to comprehend real world politics.And it reminds me of my teenage commie phase I grew out of but I know these guys are way out of their teens and using warhammer to understand the real world.
>>96508881Hey there blue eyes.
>>96508867No i think i'll stay for quite a while longer my peep

>>96508857As far as I know the weirder sci fi cannon is a thing they got in payment from another alien race for mercenary work, it converts organic matter into a form of plasma that's used as projectile.
>>96508888Believe it or not, they're actually goggles.I'm just bad at tiny details like the metal around the eyeholes.

>>96508919I never thought of it that way. This is good wisdom anon.Now I need to look in the mirror and wonder if I’m part of the problem somehow.
>>96508875Other than the dissenters none of those things are actually fascist.
>>96508575>>96508580We have about 50 people. People who have Knights have other armies as well but they stopped playing them in 10th.
>>96508929Maybe we're getting a new edition of darkstone fortress with a minor xeno character.Or more kroot mercenaries
>>96508881center of the glow should be much brighter to sell the effect
>>96508954AoS rumors point to a Warhammer quest for them coming soon.I think the gun is very primaris looking.
>>96508881How did you do the ice rocks? Love the blue and frosty effect on them.
>>96508942>20% knight playersGenuinely sorry anon, though it is a little funny. Like, what the fuck do they expect? People to sit through boring shitty games because they picked a skew army? I mean yes, that is what they expect. genuine "main character energy" huh. why doesnt everyone just exist to be an NPC for me to beat up waaaaaaaa!
>>96508778>franchiseslop writers are infallible, objectively correct arbiters of truth and knowledge!All you've proven is that Matt Ward doesn't know what fascism is.
>>96507855Here's some oldies
>>96508838Green contrasts with red nicely so I think that's the better choice.>post anythingHaven't posted my crab in a while, I guess
>>96508990Or he is using the modern definition of fascism, which is more accurate.
>>96508990Does Matt Ward still work on 40k? I remember him being a contentious figure at the time.
>try to play non ultramarines with roboob and calgar>faction has been balanced around double oath and command point genit's cool that they're releasing a bunch of chapter specific characters, but it still FEELS like shit to play without double oath and all of our detachments are strat heavy
>>96509007no, unfortunately
>>96509007No. He left the company, but GW still contracts him to write lore for them, either for studio projects or for their video games (Darktide+Vermintide)
>>96509004>modern definitionNot everything you dislike is fascism.
>>96508480>One, the Tau are called collectivists, equalists, and unionists in the lore. Those are code words for communism. The Tau lore is based on Animal Farm and 1984, which are warnings against communism.You do know that in Animal Farm there was no equality, right? That the Pigs had build a hierarchical dictatorship and "equality" was just an empty promise? Have you heard "all animals are equal, but some are more equal than others"?Animal Farm was not a warning about "quality bad". It was literally the opposite.
>>96509015>double oathpatched out already
>>96508981I asked my bro what his next army will be and he said after seeing my Knights that he thinks he will paint one next. They are just too cool looking for people to ignore.
>>96509027Kill yourself mutant

Gonna play a game with this, is it too small with a 3x3 mat for a 2k game?
>>96509042Can you stop drawing breath? That'd be fantastic
>>96509025How do you dispute the fact that Ethereals are willing to die for the cause alongside their fellow caste and even non-T'au comrades.Phil Kelly even described the Ethereals as being akin to the Emperor in their devotion to their race's future.
>>96509026double oath is very much the reason people take roboute, you might be thinking of double command points, they changed it so calgar's ability only works if he is warlordwhich sort of sucks because space marines are currently balanced like we can use more strategems than anyone else
>>96509004>more accurateI'm not so sure about that but you can try linking a reddit post again, that would convince me.
>>96508970>Start with Pro Acryl Sky Blue>Mix 1:2 with PA blue and white and drybrush with that>Edge highlight with white>Apply snow texture to base around rocks>>96508963I'd thought of that and tried to add some white in there but it always ended up filling the yellow. Guess I might just be screwed here and I'll have to do better next time.It also doesn't help it's not a very dark area to be lighting up.

>>96509055You must be fat and ugly to be so vicious
>>96508881Ill probably try green eyes, maybe white ink followed by the gsw ink. I'd like to make a glowy eye effect without any airbrush if I can achieve itYou could try brush white ink into the recesses, then airbrush white ink over it, followed by the flouro colour of your choice
