Let Chaos idols take this thread!
>>96829227are you changing the image slightly every fucking thread you dumb faggot or why did it not get filtered for me
>>96829221That's a lovely piece of art op
I like how tarot cards are used for foresight
>>96829227You should add more pigtails and ears to the cultists in the panel every time you post it. I would probably start laughing at it over time
>>96829221>>Thread Question>What's one of the most unique things in the 40k universe that you think is really cool?That fun is still allowedI look at all other alternatives that are popping up and all I see is grimdark played straight, and while I also appreciate that and the artistic directions and designs behind each, I don't see them having nearly as much fun with designs and concepts that are amusing to the viewer/playerI dread the day GW forgets this part of 40k
>>96829246Can a psyker have multiple psychic familiars at a time? Is the amplification effect cumulative?
>>96829253>Is the amplification effect cumulative?no
He's got them crazy eyes
>>96829227Based ratfag.
>>96829267I've always felt 50:50 on these toys. On one hand, it's very cool to have a giant fucking version of the exact sculpt that you can pose. On the other hand, they give people an opportunity to own a sculpt of a character without painting it, and still get the same satisfaction without any of the effort. I worry long term this could have a ripple effect, and the amount of BL secondaries and video game secondaries who would've painted a model will slowly decrease, leading to less interest in the hobby as a whole. This is literally doomposting, and probably won't happen, but I can't help but fear what happens to the minis if some other part of the IP becomes more profitable or easy for the company.
>>96829227Has a 40k player ever murdered another?
>>96829298These are people who paint toys you are talking about. They aren't the killdozer guy, they'll just complain about something rather than solve the problem themselves
Based on the minis I want to paint and like, is it a terrible 1000pts army or not?>Autarch>spiritseer>10 dire avengers>10 scorpions>5 rangers>5 wraithblades>3 shining spears> 1 fire prism>5 warp spiders
>>96829221>TQOrks. It may seem mundane to us, but the whole "ladz havin' propa fun" on their POV, but its "a horde of monstrous, bloodyhirsty marauders destroying everything" for everyone else's POV is cool.The fact they can both look silly and threatening at the same time is unique. I dont know what other setting has a comedic relief faction that's also a legit scary and threatening faction at the same time, without trying too hard to be le funny and randumz.
>>96829242>>96829307I'm sensing a common theme here
>>96829307I wouldn't necessarily say that they combine it, or at least I would say that "grimdark orks" angle is at least a bit underexposed these days
>>96829290i think they're neat and make for a good backdrop for my painting desk post joytoys
>>96829309Orks are indeed the heart and soul of warhammer, you could remove everything else and orks of various kulturs and kreeds scrapping amongst themselves would still be more than enough for a setting, game and miniatures.
Post models for a good thread
>>96829331cool ultramarines
>>96829334those are clearly space wolves, don't you see the lightning theme of thor?
I’ve decided to start a Harlequins army, I have the combat patrol on the way. Would a second one be good or should I just get 2-3 more boxes of Troupes and a Shadowseer instead? I don’t see 4 star weavers being useful and I’m unsure if the voidweaver is worth it
>>96829221Hey guys, it's once again time for the collage anchor posts. This months theme is "something spooky" and was left up to your own interpretation.As always I'll check the archive too but submitting your models in reply to my anchor posts is the best way to not be missed. I'll try to make a post every thread the next 7 days.Here is the link to the november vote:https://strawpoll.com/ajnE1PQ0BnW
>>96829331>ogeyMy favourite representation of nightlords is them in faith and fury where they're a bunch of dick head space pirates.
>>96829343pls remove the pubes from your model before taking a photo
>>96829348Eh, even with Aetheric Dominions, 8 is kind of too little upgrade types.
Fucked up that "kabals" is spelled with a K but covens and cults are spelled with a C.
>>96829354can't possibly field a kkk army

>>96829303>Based on the minis I want to paint and likeEverything after this is irrelevant - if you like it, do it and fuck internet experts telling you to conform to a meta.
>>96829341Here's my submission, I hope it's spooky enough.
How fucked would we be if Vashtorr somehow manifested on Earth AD 2025? All he'd need to conquer our planet is a trending smartphone app.

>>96829380Good point. I suppose I could proxy it as something else but I still dont know there's value in a second box instead of more troupes
>>96829393Looks great, well done
Chaos undecided is and has always been boring and for losers.
>>96829404>>the coiling onesNot enough sexy snake cultists in 40gay
>>96829424Disagree, its the most excitingyou get FUCKING EVERYTHING
>>96829424chaos undecided has never been in the gameyou're thinking chaos unaligned
>>96829404>united>undecided>unknownKinda not a thing>morghur>dark kingAssuming Morghur is Dissolution and Dark King is Ruin is kinda erroneous but yes Dissolution/Ruin is part of Dominions>malal>necoho>zuvassin>nuffleNot a thing in 40k, Malal is straight up not a thing, Nuffle is fuckin' bloodbowl>AoS-specific things>elements?>eh??Hell even Raptor God is more legit than those, frankly.I mean I wan't ripping too much on the concept, think basic Hades started with 10 gods not counting Chaos and a "conservative" 40k version could reasonably have 9. Hades is kind of overpraised as far as roguelike things are concerned and that was the main reason I even spoke out
>>96829424It's cool in fantasy.
How does this make you feel?
>>96829290Don't worry they're not nearly as profitable lmfao.
>>96829429>chaos undecided has never been in the gameo-fucking-rly?
>>96829353the atheric dominion thing is taken out of context anyways, the whole point is that any of the chaos gods could be any aspect
>>96829267Are these things partially handpainted or is it entirely machine painted?
>>96829440Feels like you posted in the wrong thread, and board even
>>96829440

>>96829449It's a factory made toy, I highly doubt anything on it is not done by a machine
>>96829460Emperor is not a Chaos God, not any more than Gork/Mork, Cegorach or the Hivemind
>>96829456How embarrassing.
>>96829444that's undivided, not undecided, it's different
CHAOS CONSUME US
>>96829460he's el rey negro
>>96829459>>96829474>actual newfagsEither that or autistic and given this thread 50/50 odds. People have been using undecided to refer to undivided for over 20 years.
>>96829440Oh, wow, it's a space marine melee-focused hero with a 4+ invuln and a power fish equivalent. Amazing.
>>96829456>unironically going on /vg/
>>96829481his rules aren't limited to his datasheet, which is fucking dumb
>>96829463I always thought Cegorah, Isha and Khaine were Chaos Gods of Eldar made by Old Ones to shield them from the big baddies Tzeentch, Nurgle and Khorne. (Pity Old Ones didn't think about Chaos God of Holding Hands and Romantic Walks Under The Moon and Eldar unchecked libido gave us Slaanesh.)
>>96829487It's perfectly reasonable and loreful for assault terminators to be deployed as scouts and for all their attacks against infantry models to be calculated as sustained hits.
>>96829479yeah, but they were wrong
>>96829319Nice ladies you got there.
>>96829479>People have been using undecided to refer to undivided for over 20 years.Not really, it is not all that common at all. Either way the original post was listing Undivided & Undecided as if they are different fucking things which they are not
>>96829493>bullshit rules, beakies:)>bullshit rules, xenos:(
>>96829375if it makes you feel better it has a black dot there now
>>96829499>as if they are different fucking things which they are notyes, they are, undivided has a bit of everything equally, undecided flips flops between the various thingsit's different>y-you're making that up!also yes
>>96829492Aren't all gods in 40k formed in the warp from collective conciousness? Eldar created their pantheon just like they created Ynnead.Eldar gods are tied to eldar but chaos gods represent primal fears/emotions of beings across all universe.
>>96829331
>>96829517>Eldar created their pantheon just like they created YnneadThe original eldar gods are made by the old ones if i remember correctly, ynnead is a eldar creation
>>96829521One day cup man will return.
Should GW go back to novelizing its campaigns? Like Vigilus, Charadon, Arks of Omen, Angrongeddon, etc.
>>96829509>also yesAnd that makes you a moron, not le heckin chad, retard.
https://www.warhammer-community.com/en-gb/articles/isqbppri/ultramarines-rules-reveal-datasheet-previews-for-the-new-marneus-calgar-cato-sicarius-and-victrix-honour-guard/New Smurf rules
Cato knows THREE ways to swing the same sword
>>96829462Then you apparently know jack shit about how premium figma are made.
>>96829536>only two special rules for calgarI'm genuinely shocked. I expected his datasheet to look like the drukhari raider sheet.
>>96829303This is a perfectly fine 1000 point army. It's not the strongest thing you could do with eldar, but it's flexible and has tools to handle most things that would be thrown at you in a 1k game. It can also easily expand in multiple directions if you want to.As for playing it, you have strong skirmishing ability with the scorpions, warp spiders and shining spears, the fire prism can put a decent dent in most vehicles, and together with the shining spears should be able to handle a big thing fairly reliably. The Scorpions are the most likely place to put the autarch in (though it can go with the DAs too if you want it to play a more careful role) and that's a damn choppy unit against infantry. It's probably tempting to put it out there very early and aggressively with the scout+infiltrate, but I do think it's a unit better played more carefully, as it's your best bet to snatch objectives away, and it's your most expensive piece (if the autarch's with them) so needs to be able to make itself useful.
>>96829542Look at how many units he can join though, does any other hero get a list that big
>>96829536>twin linked on melee weapon huh haven't seen it worded that way before
>>96829546Okay fair, but it does mean you take him because he punch good rather than being a tactical genius.
>>96829549it makes sense though
>>96829549
>>96829534>not le heckin chadYou're doing that all on your own, retard.
>>96829538That's a custodes' blade champion weapon.That react move is so fucking disgusting.
>>96829555yeah it's easier to understand than an extra paragraph on the abilities section good change
>>96829536Calgar Cato Victrix deathstar looks kind a scary there.
>>96829538Blade Champion is a bit tankier, hits slightly harder but has IMO much worse rule and is 120 pts.Cato should be like 100-110 but knowing GW he'll be like 80.
>>96829536>Calgar's gimmick is that he leads lots of different stuffAdvance/charge on bladeguard or assault terminators from a character is nice, and he's still as punchy as ever, so this is a pretty neat sidegrade to his gravis datasheet.>>96829538>only leads VictrixThis is a nerf, his main utility has always been a cheap and cheery assault intercessor squad with an irritating reactive move. On the OTHER hand, Victrix have a surge move, so Cato and a Victrix unit kind of project a 9" bubble of "pain in the ass to deal with", and a 6-man victrix unit is no joke to take down.
>>96829579>knowing GW he'll be like 80.He's set to 85 in the points index posted to WarCom two days ago.
>>96829536>Do note, though, that this new version doesn’t replace the former version in Gravis armour – you can take whichever one you like, just as long as they’re not in the same army together. That would be weird.I hope they don't change this and keep both models up in the next edition too
>>96829331I am looking to get a CSM rhino, vindicator and predator. Tell me about how the 30k and 40k kits compare to one another.
How do space marine, and especially Ultramarine fans live with such little support from GW? Braver than the troops frfr
>>96829517The eldar "gods" (and Gork and Mork for that matter) were created by the Old Ones to rule of the Eldar (and Krorks, respectively).Ynnead is a Greater Daemon of Slaanesh meant to represent the least degenerate aspect of him.
>>96829341Here you go anon.
>>96829598>Ynnead is a Greater Daemon of Slaanesh meant to represent the least degenerate aspect of him.Absolute headcanon based on superficial similarities like "uhh vaguely androgynous and default scheme uses purple paint">The eldar "gods" (and Gork and Mork for that matter) were created by the Old Ones to rule of the Eldar (and Krorks, respectively).[Needs citation]
>>96829593Triple ectoplasma canon is so busted for its points
>>96829610Very coolBÖC reference?
>>96829615>[Needs citation]Wild Rider has an eldar experience a flashback to a previous life during the War In Heaven, the Eldar were meant to battle Chaos and would sometimes even ally with the Necrons to do it. The eldar then saw the literal manifestations of the eldar gods and was shocked that they were nothing like the myths and were instead cold and distant constructs within the Warp.
>>96829623Yes, felt appropriate when I decided to throw out the default head and make him the reaper.
>>96829449The product description on GW's merch site doesn't say. But the Sanguinius JT figure is advertised as handpainted, so it's plausible that Mortarion would be as well.
>>96829627>the Eldar were meant to battle Chaos and would sometimes even ally with the Necrons to do it.
>>96829627That doesn't say what you said anon.
>prepare for trouble >and make it double
>>96829632Yes. Daemons were entering reality before the War In Heaven, and the Eldar and Krorks were explicitly made to combat them, not the Eldar. It was exposure to the Eldar that eventually drove the Necrontyr to declare war on the Old Ones out of jealousy. The second declaration is the one where they became the Necrons.
>>96829637Where is taht even from?
>>96829642spess marin 2
>>96829641>not the Eldar.*Not the Necrons
>>96829641th-thanks, gav thorpe
>>96829230yes, you change a single black pixel every time or else the board wont let you because the image already exists on this board. its how you get around spamming.
>>96829641>It was exposure to the Eldar that eventually drove the Necrontyr to declare war on the Old Ones out of jealousy.That's not what the book says.
>>96829221>Thread QuestionWhat's one of the most unique things in the 40k universe that you think is really cool?The dark parts. No wuzzy puzzy we get all along star trek star wars vibes. Dark, hard, grounded in real life. Choices are not do i do nothing and millions will die or i help and i am the hero but, if do somthing billions will die if i do nothing billions will die regardles. No fucking around. Scince and logic ground 40k non of that nu feels good every one is a winner bullshit.
>>96829527you remember wrong, sadly. Old ones created eldars but eldar gods are manifestation of eldar psyche

>>96829527Eldar gods are just the same gods that exist in WHF.They are and were actual gods, not some constructs.
>>96829681You shouldn't talk about "dribbling retard speak" with a post like yours.
>>96829683>not some constructsLiber chaotica and older eldar books established otherwise.
>>968296271. Your explanation doesn't match the initial claim.2. Your source doesn't match your explanation.
>>96829686i stappled it to a 4chan shitpost that took me 4 seconds. not disappointing my momma, no sir,
>>96829686could understand you with all that jizz in your mouth LMAOOO
>>96829692Not even in those.The eldar gods are just gods, since they are the same ones from WHF, who were actual gods.
Dark Eldar refresh is coming. I can feel it.
>>96829677Yes the simplest yet more then any other frenchise. But brainlets dont know shit.
>>96829692According to 3rd edition codex eldar gods only existed in the warp after they became the dominant force in the universe and there were gorillions of them.Which is consistent with how they created slaanesh, how they created ynnead and how the humans are turning emperor into a god.Eldar gods and the myths are based on fictionalized stories the primitive eldar told about the war in heaven.
How come everyone else can make better Blood Angels than GW
>>96829593the 30k kits are generally pretty clean and easy to put together. They come with lots of optional parts (some of them 30k specific). More rounded in aesthetic.The 40k kits show their age a little bit in some respects, but do have the benefit of coming with chaos-y parts, lots of spikes and gargoyle heads etc. Without some of these, the 30k ones can feel a bit too loyalist.The vindicator in particular has very different siege shields depending on if you get the 30k/40k one.If it were me, I'd pick which siege shield you like and pick that; its its the 40k one then you can use the chaos bits from that box to spruce up the other two if you go 30k. If you get the 30k vindicator, then get at least one 40k kit for chaos bits.pic related, 30k tank kits with some chaosy stuff slapped on
>>96829712How come they still have the silly kneepads?

>>96829712No nipples, no buy
>>96829221>TQHarlequins. GW somehow made a clown faction that isn't cringe. How the fuck did they do it?
>>96829716>the bestest of swordboysBelial could take him.
>>96829721You can still see the similarity in details.
>>96829338The second box would be a great value. Even if you threw the Solitaire away you'd still be saving money. And you shouldn't throw the Solitaire away because you can use the body as a base for a conversion. Using just the bits in the box you can make it into a unique Troupe Master or just a regular Troupe member, which is actually valuable because of the weird numbers you can take Troupes in.>>96829380nonsense
>>96829702>Not even in those.Why do you have to lie instead of simply talking about something as your own personal preference?
Does anyone else find it irrationally annoying that GW changed the size of the Codexes?
very subtle
>>96829221>TQOrks. everything about them is great. they can be goofy or brutal depending on the setting but they are always creative. the speculative biology aspect in their physiology was what first drew me towards 40k. that and warp travel
>>96829735No the guy you're quoting but this fragment says literally the opposite of what you originally claimed.
>>96829767What I claimed is that some sources point to the eldar gods being made by the eldar.Don't confuse me with a different poster.
>>96829331Slowly getting back into painting after a year of not painting. Working on my Flyrant made from left over pieces to test out my scheme for my nids. So far, I'm having a good time again
>>96829320amen brother. it amuses me how self-important chaos fags get when discussing who's the REAL antagonist faction. orks are the heart and soul of the setting, only the poster boys are more ingrained
>>96829772Yeah, it contradicts the "old ones created eldar gods" anon. Eldar and others were created in the first place because the old ones weren't capable of utilizing the warp themselves.
>>96829221>TQThe Imperium itself. Even if you don't like playing as the Imperium, it's a lot of fun to play against the Imperium, because they make for the perfect evil empire that's just so satisfying to be a punching bag for the other factions. Every single one of the Imperium's problems is self-inflicted, and almost all of their enemies were the Imperium's own doing, so it feels very karmic and satisfying to watch the Imperium fail.
>>96829790Cringe post and cringe image. Kapow!
>>96829787>because the old ones weren't capable of utilizing the warp themselvesthat's never stated anywhere as far as I'm aware, what I know is that the old ones are described as masters of magic and science together, and made psychic servants, but not because they weren't psychic themselves
>>96829798lightning mcqueen says kachow not kapow if thats what you were trying to reference
Planning to start a 40k CSM army with the 30k Saturnine box. Supposedly I can use the 40x Mk2 marines as some combination of Legionaries and Havocs based on weapon loadouts? The Centurion can be used as Abaddon, the Saturnine terminators as Obliterators, and the turret as a Defiler with some kitbashing.What should I do with the Saturnine Dreadnaught and the Saturnine Praetor?
>>96829828>if thats what you were trying to referencebatman actually
>>96829758Get some taste in literature holy shit
>>96829835>The Centurion can be used as Abaddontoo small >turret as a Defiler with some kitbashingthat's going to look like shit
>>96829790A big problem with a lot of sci-fi and fantasy these days is that writers don't know how to write characters who don't sound like them. You'll get some crazy sci-fi thing one million years in the future, or some big fantasy epic in a crazy magic world, but everybody will talk like somebody who works at Gamestop.But with Warhammer, the fact that people believe such alien things so strongly is a key factor of the setting. So even shitty writers will at least try to write what an Imperial citizen would say, not what the writer would say.
>>96829844I'm in a Master's program, my serious reading time is for class.
>>96829802I took that from lexicanum.https://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/War_in_Heaven_(Necron)#The_Young_RacesIt says the old ones created psychically potent races in response to getting whooped by c'tan. Then these races went all out with psi powers which spawned enslavers.I admit it's my conjecture in part, I'd assume that if they had access to psi as a weapon they wouldn't need to engineer other races specifically for it. And if they were "masters of it" they wouldn't let it get as far as it did, where the warp eventually spawned enslavers that made them extinct.
>>96829290>On the other hand, they give people an opportunity to own a sculpt of a character without painting it, and still get the same satisfaction without any of the effort.The satisfaction of painting comes from the process itself. It's satisfying to have created something, not have something that is created.
>>96829849I think its less writers policing themselves and more the fact GW won't let them do it because having whedon quip offs or characters turning to look at the reader and say 'fuck drumpf, fuck ice' would totally ruin everything.
>>96829845Should I use the Dread or Praetor as Abaddon instead?
>>96829849Yep, 40k is a fun twist on the usual premise, where (some of) the aliens end up being the relatable ones that appeal to your humanity, and the actual main human faction feels very alien and grotesque. It feels like you're watching some nightmare eldritch realm with human skin-creatures.
>>96829290>On the other hand, they give people an opportunity to own a sculpt of a character without painting itliteral paintlet take, holy shit
>>96829860>I'd assume that if they had access to psi as a weapon they wouldn't need to engineer other races specifically for it.You assume wrong thenIt's like saying that if you were strong you wouldn't make a hammer to hit even harderas for letting it go as far as it did, it's actually part of their plan, but 40k fluff doesn't touch on that as much as the fantasy side
>>96829536>Nerf other units reactive moves >Release an insane reactive move combo that’s works with the new rules updateOh GW never change
>>96829874fuck the inquisition
>>96829835>The Centurion can be used as Abaddon?>Saturnine DreadnaughtDinobot?>Saturnine Praetor?Daemon Prince?
>>96829879praetorthe saturnine dreadnought is far too bigthe problem with that one is that it's too big for a helbrute and too small for a chaos knight, you'd have to accept some suspension of disbelief and count it as a forgefiend
>Orks get stronger from fightingHow the fuck are you supposed to fight them then without just making them a bigger problem?
Interesting that GW is abandoning the "leader armor type must match squad joined" thing.
>>96829941Loyalty is its own reward, it’ll still be in place for other armies
>>96829940Isolate and contain, like the Eldar did to them for 65 million years

>>96829926>the saturnine dreadnought is far too big>you'd have to accept some suspension of disbelief and count it as a forgefiendIt's a bit taller, but mass wise they're not that different. I've seen plenty of Forgefiend conversions that have used a taller, bipedal body as the base.
>>96829962>Finished my Itsy Bitsy DefilerSounds like the creator intended it to be a Defiler.
>>96829974Grog shit, ignore
>>96829970just a random aquila statue
>>96829970Big aquila statue.
>>96829965
>>96829985Regardless of his wishes, it doesn't pass as a defiler.
>>96829965Yes and it's to make fun of chaosfags.
Look at the pretty pictures.https://www.warhammer-community.com/en-gb/articles/z9z7kzct/warhammer-art-through-the-years-astra-militarum/
>>96830007It's ok, he'll just play with this guy.
>>96830024that's still a venomcralwer and not a defiler
>>96830016Interesting that they only highlight the regiments they sell (Cadians/Krieg/Catachan) AND the Vostroyans. Vostroyans confirmed and incoming boys.
>>96830016You can actually see the points where guard art lost its soul
>>96830032Don't think you realize how small the crawler is and how big the turret is.
>>96830034Is the golden horseman a good character?
>>96830016why didn't the cityfight cover art come out to play? fail
Do you think love can bloom, even in the grim dark future where there is only war?
>>96830041He's not even a good horseman.
>>96830040thanks for disproving your own point, I guessthe turret doesn't have the mass of a defiler, not the melee weapons
Just finished reading The Palatine Phoenix, and before that The Pale King. Any more books about Mortarion or Fulgrim?
>>96830041no, because gw was too afraid of making him zapp brannigan
>>96830062What did you think about those books, anon? Are they worth reading for your average /40kg/ poster? Leave your comments below. Thanks guys
>>96830062idk ask hhg
>>96830053No, humans are finicky creatures who will betray you at the first opportunity. This is why Talarn are the only good humans.
>>96830062dunno, go ask /hhg/
>>96830068Doesn't need to be only HH era books>>96830067I'm not a book aficionado but I did enjoy reading them
>>96830062Don’t even bother with Fulgrim, there’s basically no good books after that one because the Heresy writers have a hate boner for the EC.
>>96830053why is that marine out of scale and pig themed?
>>96830059NTA but you do realize that venomcrawler also has melee weapons?
>>96830031oc donut steal
Do you think the new Sisters Killteam will be purely bespoke or replace a kit?Like the Raveners Killteam is the new Raveners and the new Raptors will replace the old one
>>96830084>Don’t even bother with FulgrimNo, he should bother with Fulgrim. Fulgrim is a funny book.
>>96830093it's easier to add a few small tendrils or assume the turret piston legs stand in for the crawler's spider legsit's very much a stretch to expect the same turret legs to stand in for the defiler's big metallic claws
>>96830104>le rape is badThis is an EC book?
>>96830119Emperor's Children are heckin wholesome
>>96830101new unit
>>96830034it's almost as if most of the art gw does is about the shit they actually sell
>>96830114I dont really feel that, I think if you were to cut up the turret legs and reposition them and add couple bits it'd match the height & bulk of the defiler more than it'd match the venomcrawler.But ultimately the model lies somewhere between both models so its just a matter of "do you want a smaller defiler or bigger venomcrawler?", IMO it doesn't quite fit eather size-wise without conversion work.>few small tentaclesAnon to be fair consider that venomcralwer melee weapons are as good as its gun
>>96830119I wonder how slow these threads would be if people weren't pretending to be retarded all the time.
>>96830150If you cut out all the shitposting and pointless lore autism it'd be a bit faster than current /aosg/, I reckon. I'm fairly sure secondaries, shitposters and tourists make up a decent chunk of traffic here.
>>96830147>it'd match the height & bulk of the defilerno, it absolutely wouldn't, the legs are miniscule and the more you use them to elevate the turret the less width it hasaccept it's a venomcrawler and seek a better proxy for a defiler
>>96829758>Gender transitionAverage mike brooks fan lmao
>>96830166>accept it's a venomcrawler and seek a better proxy for a defilerI am not the anon you initially talked to, I am not really accepting it as either without additional work. The legs are too sprawling and big for venomcrawler as well.
>>96830119To be fair, this is pretty early on in their Slannesh corruption, so they hadn't all gone insane yet.
>>96830169>has to make his bait more obvious an hour later because nobody fell for itwhat causes such retardation
>Cato doesn't get Fights First or Fight On DeathLmao dies to Jain Zar
>>96830184>Jain ZarWho?
>>96830179lol you have overestimated your fellow anons' ability to refuse bait.
>>96830184Does anyone even bring her?
>>96830184Of course, as it should be.
>>96830172the legs won't be sprawling once he articulates them into spider legs
>>96830191That just shows how bad Cato is.
>>96830213Nah, Cat has insane reactive moves that perfectly get around the reactive move nerf. He and his boys are more agile than Banshees lol
>>96830211The turret has twice as many guns and they're much bigger. The legs are also basically twice as thick as the venomcrawler ones, it wouldn't look stellar as a crawler without conversion work either
How big is Warhammer 40k in Russia anyways? Vostroyans and Valhallan are some of the more popular guard regiments, and Russian soldiers IRL put purity seals on their armor and bless their weapons
>>96830270They use it for culture over there, since the Russian military is the Guard but worse, and the church is a government op.
>>96830258>gunsirrelevant>The legs are also basically twice as thick as the venomcrawler onesstraight up wrongit's simply not going to look like a defiler, ever, accept it
>>9683027090% of Russia survives by eating snow and stale bread, I don't imagine a lot of people can afford overpriced plastic army men.
>>96830270unlike popular belief, people don't just pick the shit that more closely resembles their own culture
>>96830277>guns>irrelevantHows weapon size irrelevant, thats stupid.Caliber is caliber, you dont get to slap a Knight Chainsword on a brutallis dread and call it a good conversion.
>>96830270>How big is Warhammer 40k in Russia anyways?Moscow Narrative scene is so big they've resorted to playing 3k point 3vs3 matches, with multiple people attending every game night, so across multiple tables afaik. The fluff for their homebrew system is a bit doofy but I gotta appreciate at least custom scenarios they do. Haven't been there yet but this narrative giga-campaign might've also somewhat subdued narrative play in other clubs, dunno.Otherwise it seems to be pretty damn big.>Vostroyans and Valhallan are some of the more popular guard regiments, and Russian soldiers IRL put purity seals on their armor and bless their weaponsAs >>96830284 said I really don't think those are popular regiments here.
>>96830270Hugely popular. They're probably second per-capita behind only england itself. Cosplay and fan art are very popular there as well, a lot of the best of those that get reposted the most are of russian origin.The blessing weapons thing is already a thing in Orthodoxy, and western christians do the same thing just not as part of official parades. But many of the things from 40k fitting into Orthodoxy rituals is part of why they like it so much. They also relate to the idea of enemies all over the world (galaxy) being against them and they have to stand strong and make sacrifices to stand against the tide of the rest of the world. It's ingrained in how they see their own history, and it's basically the gist of the Imperium in 40k.
>>96830296>hereYou Ivan?
>>96830301Not my name but ya dude its almost 5am atm hardly weird for me being online here.
>>96830286but that's absolutely a good conversion
>>96829331New guys sometime next week I hope. Also rip to my lost bladeguard made from the company heroes captain.
>>96830296>>96830299lmao you guys seem to forget that Moscow and St Petersburg are pretty much the only places that can afford any kind of luxury goods. Majority of Russians live in poverty so this>probably second per-capita behind only england itselfis absolute bullshit.
>>96830321I don't think that is quite the case anon, I see game clubs on the map in a lot of larger citiesA bunch of my recasts that I ordered before came from neither Moscow nor Petersburg, you gotta recognize that most people aren't buying from GW and therefore its cheaper
>>96830314The sarcophagus lid looks like it's made of wood.
>>96830314Damn that Dread is dope!!!!!!!
>>96830314Where'd you get that pilot cover?
>>96829331have two giant piles of resin that will eventually become tanks sitting on my desk and i'm really dreading having to build them
>>96830321>Majority of Russians live in poverty so thisLmao europoor, most russians use recast models and wahapedia/pirated codexes. For example, fire dragon squad on GW's type sprues is only $17
>>96830363And that's a good thing. Here is why:
>>96830104Why is Lucius' dialogue written like the new VTM Bloodlines video game
>>96830388>lmao poor!>use recast models and wahapedia/pirated codexestruly a display of wealth
>>96830247>Cato and his 6" move boys are more agile than the 13" Advance and Charge Banshees who can't be charged because they have Fights First Bro Cato's getting his ass kicked by an Exarch, let alone Jain.
>>96830199>>96830184Absolutely baffling that someone might find this surprising desu> breaking news; phoenix lords are better at fighting than chief monkey
>Victrix Honor Guard rules releasedI know it was a long shot, but I thought it’d be neat if they could have been Gulliman’s body guards.
finished painting my carnifex body. 4 claws, the base and the head and he will be done for this sunday
>>96829385>>96829543thanks for the advices!
>>96830184>>96830475Banshees by themselves absolutely shred pretty much any target with the Infantry keyword. Even Calgar is going to think twice about tangling with a squad of them without a maxed out bodyguard squad, Jain or no.
>>96830503>mfw
>>96830503Very nice
>>96830503hell yeah
>>96830034ThisEverything GW does is either deliberate marketing or a stupid monkey mistake, in both cases obvious.
>>96830016>No Mordians
>>96830515Stinky monkey.
>>96830515hell yeah jokaero
>>96830580shut up frieza
I know the whole “the Eldar are willing to kill a billion humans to save a single Eldar” thing is true, but people often ignore that the Imperium has its own badass version as well, “The Imperium is willing to lose a billion humans to kill a single Eldar”
>>96829729Could Belial take Ragnar in a sword fight?
>>96830611That just shows how much eldar are hated.
>>96830016>didn't include pic relIt's shit. This will always and forever remain the iconic Imperial Guard art piece to me.
>>96830611The Imperium is for Chads, the Eldar are for sissy boys, Im sorry its just the truth.
>>96830611in how many more consecutive threads do you want to post this image?
>>96830016This is low effort even by WHCommunity standards, there are some odd ommisions here
>>96830611>uh bilyun? dats rooky numbaz
>>96830646this is bad
>>96830662You're mom is bad lol
>>96830611Anon that entire exhange is one of the reasons nobody cares about Eldar. They're haughty backstabbing cunts.
>Cap to the superglue got stuck to the tubeFUCK
>>96830695So is the Imperium. The difference is the Eldar will backstab you to protect their people. The Imperium will backstab you even if it harms their people because they just hate everyone.
>>96830716
Whats the Necron tenant for "Acceptable" losses?
>>96830741Necron are functionally infinite in number; I don’t think they care about losses all that much
>>96830717The Imperium is human and the Eldar aren't, therefore for the Imperium's method is justified.
>>96830624I think someone mathed it out a while back and Ragnar does tend to win out when they go toe to toe.
average death korps guardsman
>>96830646It's just engagement bait, anon. Notice how they ask people to tell them on social media what their favorite pieces are? They've specifically left stuff like >>96830626 out just so people can post it to their twatter or whatever and say "uuhhh why did you leave out this amazing piece of the 72nd cockblockers?"
I love it when bolters are just huge ugly boxes with a trigger and barrel.
>>96830758I don’t know about that, if I had a person I cared about, I wouldn’t exactly support them shooting themselves in the foot on the basis of “I like them therefore they are always right even when they hurt themselves”
>>96830772Wtf is this hideous art that I am looking at here?
Why are humans the only race that produces blanks? I assume humans have to be some Old One project or something. There's too much weird shit like blanks, the emperor, etc for them to be a natural race. In Old Lore I think it was canon that the c'tan were responsible but I doubt that is canon now.
>>96829221ik a lot of ppl hate them but i think primarchs are the coolest thing in the setting besides the warp, even if they're basically marvel superheroes. something about a 12 ft tall warrior demigod cleaving thru waves of xenos is awesome but ultimately pointless in the grimdark setting of non stop war. the fact that they're almost unstoppable one man armies but can only be one place at a time really hammer home the scale of warfare the Imperium is waging. its dumb anime bullshit but i like dumb anime bullshitplus guilliman is really hot and my husbando
>>96830772Tau have lost to Chaos every time they have fought it for real. Shadowsun and her fleet got destroyed by the Death Guard when they weren't even really trying. The only reason they didn't unleash a ton of Nurgle's plagues in the core of the Tau Empire is that the Tau'va goddess messed up the Startide Nexus after they entered it
>>96830626Why would they post dead traitors? That’s what the Steel Legion is now.
So how shit is this going to be?
>>96830796Agreed tiddy poster, Primarchs are ultimately what drew me to the setting. I ended up picking the SW because there Primarch has the best story/arch.
>>96830784I mean 3 out of the 4 Chaos gods were spawned by humanity and literally half of the Space Marines fell to Chaos, hell the Emperor himself was on the cusp of becoming a Chaos god and will once he dies. I think it’s safe to say that humanity definitely has some scary weird shit going on and is definitely not a natural race
>>96830809I like that the Eldar lose their shit around blanks. They are driven insane by even being near them and see them as least as bad as chaos. Soul eating monsters
>>96830803>havocs>sorc>legionnaires with no chaos lord>defiler>no cultists>no accursed cultists
>>96830763Ragnar is a good boy.
>>96830646isn't that just a copy of a real artwork?
>>96830827Yeah but I wanted to make a list out of shit from the Saturnine box.Plus 3 Rhinos.
>>96830774The Imperium isn't shooting themselves in the foot though. They're fighting to destroy an objectively evil enemy of mankind.
>>96830844An enemy that the Imperium created for themselves. If you stab yourself in the artery you don’t get credit for trying to bandage the wound afterwards.
Tried a EC color scheme on this poor incomplete busted up loyalist SM mini (who already withstood 5 different color schemes somehow)Didnt do the gold parts purely because I still need to learn nmm, so dont mind the absent of gold
>>96830624Not on his best day, Ragnar is an Elite Warrior.
>>96830803I think this list would be MUCH better in either pactbound or veterans, especially pactbound. You have Abaddon, and pactbound loves his re-rolls, it supports obliterators much better (make them Tzeentch and you can ress them if one is left alive) and it sustained on crit 5s makes a world of difference for the amount of damage the lascannon havocs put out.
>>96830852>An enemy that the Imperium created for themselvesNo they didn't? Eldar had already been fucking over mankind long before the Imperium existed. They started it and now they can't take the heat.
>>96830867The Eldar fucked over humanity way less than the Imperium fucked over themselves.
>>96830768
>>96830872The Eldar spawned Slaanesh and brought about the end of the DAOT, causing mankind to fall into a horrific age of separation, strife, and death. They're LITERALLY the main reason the galaxy is fucked in 40k.
>>96830872>Slaanesh>eye of terror/Cicatrix Maledictum>dark eldarwrong knife ear apologist
>>96830867>Eldar had already been fucking over mankindno, you're making that up, they were on their own
>>96830892The Imperium gave Chaos 9 Space Marien legions, making them response for the Great Rift as well, and also brought the Tyranids to the galaxy, and woke up the Necrons. The Imperium does not have an enemy it faces today that it did not empower.
>>96830892>the end of the DAOTThat was kind of shit anyway.
>>96830897>Khorne, Tzeentch, and Nurgle>Great Rift>Chaos LegionsHumanity’s record is way worse
>>96830892>and brought about the end of the DAOTno, that was mankind shooting themselves in the foot with robots
>>96830865Dang, I actually didn't know Tzeentch could do that.
>>96830803>havocs in rhinosonly if its reaper-chain cannon spam.Why 3 rhinos? are you trying to shove abaddon in there? that doesn't work bruv oblits are fine but good luck modeling them to be unique. Throw in a squad of cultists for sticky and being action mules. another forgefiend for extra meat and redundancy would help
is there a list someplace for the release order of 8th/9th ed content? im trying to grab the correct files for heralds of ruin but i checked out of 8th before everyone got codexes so have no idea what order the stuff released in.
>>96829319pose on second is scuffed
>can't have a Khorne codex, it's gotta be a Khorne Marines codex>can't have a Nurgle codex, it's gotta be a Nurgle Marines codex>can't have a Tzeentch codex, it's gotta be a Tzeentch Marines codex>can't have a Slaanesh codex, it's gotta be a Slaanesh Marines codexChaos is somehow more homogenous than the Imperium it opposes.
>>96830989That’s because like 95% of Chaos’s power comes from what the Imperium gave it
Why does every Space Marine unit need a fucking character to do actual damage I hate this shit
>>96830981>take one step forward>legs brokenThe paragon warsuit demands sacrifice.
>>96830989The imperium is all that matters. How many times do we have to teach you this lesson
>>96830999because you gotta buy the slop, pig
>>96830999Because Character Models are sick and add to the setting. What are you a bitch?
>>96829331What kind of filter did you use on this pic? Hot wax?
>>96830989>a Tzeentch Marines codexIt's a Tzaangor codex with Chaos Space Marine auxiliary units.
>>96831027based if true.
>>96830999space marines are average joes in the game, it sucks but they need to sell more models
>>96829331 Sang guard nearly finshed.
>>96829363What motivated that color scheme? Do you have "Live Love Laugh" on your walls too?
>>96830803Weird how I knew before clicking that it would be a try hard CSM list
>>96831027GW made an interesting Chaos Codex supplement and people hate it because it’s not just Marine slop…
It's time.
>>96831027Good enough. Welcome back Beastmen of Chaos.
>>96831020>add to the settingAre you gay AND retarded?
>>96831046Good shit fellow BA enjoyer.
>>96830911The Eldar spawned a fucking Chaos God and opened the Eye of Terror before the Great Crusade.The Legion falling to Chaos ARE the fault of the Eldar you moron.
>>96829331These guys take forever to paint. All that details. Then theres the blade, then the leather, then the last highlights and details, then I have their daggers to paint.
>>96831046Whenever I see them I always think there's something off about them. Those wings help a lot but still there is something off like they are too bland and unicolor.
>>96831080No they’re not, it’s because Chaos recognized the Emperor as their greatest foe before they even gained sentience and worked to undercut him and humanity for all of history.
Apparently the Jiatrix are a straight up ethereal race of auxiliaries, so the Tau race like…straight up ghosts as an auxiliary race
>>96831080the eye of terror was actually retconned to have been created during the war in heaven, then it was closed by the end of it, then the fall of the eldar empire caused it to reopenso the eldar were probably involved with closing it in the first place
>>96831080Only one of the Chaos Space Marine legions fell to Slaanesh. The other 8 was all the Imperium’s doing.
>>96831046tie dye power weapons suck ass. highlighting and shading all that gold is going to be a chore just don't use silver.
D0 Knights ever accidentally step on Marines and Guards while fighting? Seems like a tough task to mix the two in a large battle.
>>96831101It was closed by the Necrons using their tech. Then the Eldar opened it again.
>>96830911Tyranids are actually the Silent King’s fault.>>96831080The Eye of Terror spawning actually helped the Emperor because it even happening weakened the warp and allowed him to begin his campaign. He fumbled the ball because he’s an idiot.
>>96831072Neat. Have a nice read anon. It's good novel.
Wait a minute... that head... that decal....
The best Chaosdex bar none is Chaos Knights.
oh he stopped paying 4chan, sad.
>>96831113>It was closed by the Necrons using their techYeah, I'm not taking what the necrons say at face value.They were most definitely also involved, considering the blackstone structures all around the region, but the eldar were the ones squatting in that place, there must have been a reason, and we know the necrons and eldar collaborated at times.
>>96831107Horus fell to Chaos because Lorgar was corrupted by it when visiting Cadia and behold the Eye up close.No Eye, no corruption of Horus.
>>96831116Wrong, the Imperium brought the Tyranids to the galaxy by overloading the Pharos Beacon
>>96831100"ethereal" doesn't mean much in 40k, that doesn't mean they're necessarily warp-dwelling or anything.
>>96831085>the Emperor's Golden Legion>primary color is Sons of Horus sea-green
>>96831112If the marine is dumb enough to be on the path of a giant walker, it's his fault for getting stepped on.
>>96831148Lorgar went to the Eye because the God Emperor made him like that. No God Emperor, no Great Rift, no Chaos Legions.
>>96831149That’s old lord. The Silent King fucking around outside the galaxy is what lured them in.
>>96830989You can play Chaos in other GW games where there are no Chaos space marines.
Why is slaanesh so hot?
>>96831173>Look in Old World: Fantasy Chais Marines>Look in AoS: Fantasy Chaos Marines
>>96831168The Silent King returned to warn the galaxy of the tyranids, he didn’t bring them here, that was all the Imperium’s doing
>>96831112Lmao that head looks so fucking gay. Are you a furry?
>>96831046>>96831095If GW cared
BA look like fucking dogshit, those helmets are hideous. Vampire marines could be 10x cooler if they actually leaned into vampires and not this wannabe dmc shit.
>>96831112my fucking god that head looks comically bad
>>96830999nah you'll run 3x captains 3x sternabladeguard and like it, they can draw straws for who's the actual man in charge this week
>>96831207>>96831193filtered
I demand the venom model be made bigger and more inline with the original kitbash version. The yare waaaay too chibi for how good they are.
>>96831168that's not a retcon, that's an inconsistency between in-setting beliefs>from what we've seen from the pharos: the tyranids caught a glimpse of it and moved towards it>from what the szarekh says to have seen:the tyranids were incoming and he came back to warn about thembut he's also noted to violently prevent anyone from looking into his claims>from what one harlequin told draxus:the silent king made them and then directed them to the galaxy but she's also noted to have said fanciful lies beforeperhaps the nids were incoming regardless but the pharos had behemoth specifically charge headlong into it rather than some other target (note: behemoth went straight for maccrage and that's where the pharos pointed)perhaps the harlequin is correct and the silent king did somehow direct their growth and their path, but the silent king would also be technically true in saying they already existed and would have been coming at some point
>>96831227use a starweaver then and start painting
Only real OGs will know.
>>96831254No I want everyone else to have to use a bigger model.
>>96831243Necrons never excelled in biotech OR psychic shit so I am not buying that SK created a species of magic, Warp-twisting ayylmaos with a compound Godhead at the steering wheel.
>>96831261>Nothen go fuck yourself with a jetbike
>>96831243The Eldar are liars at the best of times, its safe to assume that when discussing their mortal enemies, an enemy that has every reason to keep humanity alive so that they can biotransfer into them, they’re almost certainly making shit up, especially since the Eldar would want the Imperium to go to war with the Necrons so that the Necrons are too busy fighting the Imperium to go after the Eldar
>>96831197It's fucking criminal what they did to the sanguinary guard.Also it's funny how that helmet doesn't look retarded in this despite it clearly being inspired by the new SG kit.
What's he up to?
>>96831112the lion doesn't concern himself with the smell of the pants he shit in

>>96831300what am I looking at here
>>96831267that's if he was involved in making them ex novobut say, for example, if he wasn't really involved in engineering them, but rather just rearing them into a weapon to throw at the galaxy, all he would have had to do could have been guiding them to the most ideal locations, optimising their victories and having them develop a taste for psychic life
>>96831272the harlequins are also in possession of a magical library with all the truths of the universe and have no reason to specifically mention the nids if they wanted to throw dirt at the silent king and convince the imperium to fight them

>>96831354Congrats, now start an AoS army! (better minis)
>>96831375see >>96831255
>>96831285Robert Crumb, start over this is embarrassing
>>96831356>>96831369Sure but by that same token we shouldn’t believe anything an Eldar says, ever. The Eldar have never once been honest with the Imperium. The entire reason they revived Guilliman was because they knew he would make a bunch of fuckups that would cause immense damage to the Imperium, which is why Guilliman declared war on them to show them whose boss.
>>96831307I actually don't completely hate it in spite of the reference you're making.
>>96831354dont worry, by the time you're grayer and gayer and they completely remake the game for the 24th time to the point where its actually fun, all those sculpts will be out of scale for the game. A tactical marine will be the size of a knight castellan
>>96831412>The entire reason they revived Guilliman was because they knew he would make a bunch of fuckups that would cause immense damage to the Imperium,Tbey did that because Yvraine and Eldrad genuinely believe that the Imperium is the last hope for the galaxy.
>>96831376>known for surprising occasional bouts of petulant rageNot really, its mostly just shitposting and misrepresenting shit plucked from BL.>cold, unfeeling personality that treated everything with the efficiency of a tournament player looking at a competitive game at the tour.Thats overwhelmingly how it is.>ironic lose conditionsWe don't need more bright/hopefuel in the setting.
>>96831255fucking right BRUH
>>96831426the reference doesn't really work that well considering the different power dynamicbut it's something that cannot not spring to mind when thinking about a lone silver alien guiding an all devouring entity to planets
>>96831433No, the Eldar would never do something that helps humanity. Hell, the entire reason Guilliman invaded the Silent King’s territory is because he was spurred on to do it by Eldar reverse psychology.
>>96831438>hopefuelEveryone dies Anon. Including the death robots and the bug swarms.
>>96831362You did not answer the question. Are you a furry? Be honest.
>>96831412>Sure but by that same token we shouldn’t believe anything an Eldar says, ever.If you give for granted you should take everything the eldar say as a lie, then you're also playing into their hands because they'd be using reverse psychology on you.
>>96831449Chaoswank/Imperium Hopefuel, so I reject the premise of the suggestion.That and arguing "how the setting ends" or win/lose conditions is fucking stupid in the first place.
>>96831457No I am not a furry wth is wrong with you people? How many furries have you actually met because Ive never even seen one in the wild.
>>96831458And that’s precisely what Guilliman fell for. He was tricked into invading the Silent King’s territory because the Eldar warned him not to, and Guilliman knows that the Eldar never tell the truth, so he thought that that meant if he invaded the Silent King’s territory it would be a success, but the Eldar were once again deceiving humanity through reverse psychology. Luckily, Guilliman invaded the Eldar craftworld afterwords to punish them for this and their people were put to death for their treachery.
>>96831468you're not fooling anybody
>>96831479There is literally zero indication that I am a furry.
>>96831476I'm pretty sure I remember the eldar saving guilliman at the end of that book as well.What's with the fetish of saying guilliman invaded eldar craftworlds?
>>96831459Chaos and the Imperium are also hopelessly fucked. Chaos are just a collective of aetheric emissions constantly lying to themselves about how they’ll definitely perpetuate themselves forever and not inevitably Peter out once everything in the galaxy is a barren husk. The Imperium is a bureaucracy from hell and was always destined for failure.
>>96831493Well, he didn’t personally invade the Eldar craftworlds, but his Ultramarines did, I would assume on his orders or at the very least with his knowledge. And if the Eldar are saving Guilliman, it’s so that they can try to trick him again later to harm humanity.
How do I redpill my rl friend on the Alpha Legion? He's interested in getting started in wh40k, Alpha Legion and Chaos in general.
>>96831506make him read Legion and Harrowmaster
>>96831323I like it.It's a bit rough but it doesn't look half bad.
>>96831496>Chaos are just a collective of aetheric emissions constantly lying to themselves about how they’ll definitely perpetuate themselves forever and not inevitably Peter out once everything in the galaxy is a barren huskThe inherent (and frankly dogshit) multiversal nature of Warhammer begs to differ. I mean I wouldn't mind if your headcanon was legit but it isn't and at worst ends with 40k galaxy being temporarily cut off from the Warp until new life emerges and thats it. And that's not counting the (again, frankly not well-executed) atemporal nature of Daemons/Gods.So no, your "bad ending for everyone" mentality doesn't work here and as a result feels dissatisfying as a whole, merely being the BL editor version of setting ending with extra steps.
Are daemons and csm in the same army cool and sovlful or should they be segregated like mashed potatoes and peas on a plate?
>>96831561Daemons should’ve never been an independent army.
>>96831561Daemons deserve either completely axed including miniatures and datasheets from the game or properly expanded into a range with better and more elaborate fluff as well as reimagined models. >>96831576 is a horrible half-measure in my eyes that does nothing to fix whats bad about daemons (shoddy aesthetics and underwhelming fluff).
>>96831561If you have to ask this question you should be beaten to near death with a metal dreadnought in a sock until you can recite the list of demonic gifts in realm of chaos.

>>96831732>Demons should be abstract not…whatever the fuck people are suggesting with vashtor upgrades.They sure as fuck are not abstract as it stands, they're literally Fantasy hands-me-down designs.Its not both settings even sharing daemons, its historically just Fantasy daemons being shoved into 40k with zero changes.There is nothing about current daemons that convey their abstract, demi-real nature like you have with Nighthaunt or C'tan Shards having wispy/digitalized texures. They're frankly impossible to defend IMO.

>>96831732Counterpoint: Blue Horrors with shotguns and Pink Horrors with double barreled shotguns would be really fucking funny.
>>96831112Kill yourself
>>96831803The reason why daemons look generic for us is because it is not possible to make an eldritch monster that is imcomprehensible in a miniature form.I'd very concerned if you managed to do it.
>>96831895The pain has started and you've not even rolled any dice!
>>96829778To add to my post, how do I use this thing? Any tips for a flyrant?
>>96831931Technically the pain started earlier cause I pierced my skin on some of the model's spikes while building my archon.
>>96831913I mean obviously they deserve more 40k elements and generally weirder appearance. Fantasy looks belong in fantasy, they deserve to be entirely different ranges with arguably also different fluff.But yes between the upper variant and bottom I'd choose bottom, unsure if you meant for those smoke effects to read like they have teeth but thats a decent spin.

>>96832113Yes. Is there any sense to the order that they restock thongs in? Absolutely not. Occasionally things will be out of stock for almost an entire edition. Generally stuff that is online only takes a while to restock
>>96832166You shouldn't buy recastsof plastic kits. They are always shit. ALWAYS. You can always tell it's a recast.
>>96832141Recasts have been very very good for about a decade now. This isn't 2015. All the recasters have proper pressure pot systems so the casting is great, occasionally better than first party
>>96832162>makeagif.com
>>96832195Trying too hard.
>>96832184You haven't bought a plastic recast in the last 15 years and it shows
>>96832190>>96832148recasts are always a gigacope. They are obvious, poorly made and look like shit. Sorry, but your models look like trash.

has anyone made (hair) braids with greenstuff? does it look good?
>>96832203I don't have any recasts but I've seen enough to know they have been stellar for years as well as there is documented examples all over the internet showing how nice they've gotten. Using buzzwords and anecdotes isn't doing anything to disprove the objective proof that recasts are much better now
>>96832195

>>96832226WTG and Z
>>96832231Here's a simple one I've got saved, there's more complicated ones out there, but this one seems reasonable and doesn't have you literally braiding uncured greenstuff
If I wanted anything released in the past 10 years the original model is cheaper 2nd hand ebay. The last recast I bought was runistorm demon brutes last year and it still cost $80 coming from black legion market, and I've seen the og kit go for the same price since then.
>>96832141>>96832166Black Legion Market is the way to go imo.
>>96832267If you're buying second hand resin forgeword you are buying a recast unless it's still in the forgeworld bags, and even then, there were sellers on aliexpress selling knockoff forgeworld bags back around 2017. You might as well just buy a recast if you aren't buying from the original owner that you personally know won't fuck you over
>>96832276are they plastic or resin

>>96832123>>96832137>>96832230https://youtu.be/jS94-_zy3Dg-video capture of a Imperial citizen of planet Birmingham, late M39.
>>96832291I’m pretty sure a bunch of changcasters are gone at least.
>>96832286Nobody recasts in plastic. The plastic models that are recanted are recasted in resin. Molten plastic isn't fluid enough to be cast without big presses and steel moulds and physically injected into the mould. Whereas most recasters are using silicone moulds
>>96832311then why did these TSons rubric marines I bought work with plastic glue
>>96832311Also plastic molding that GW uses to achieve the high quality models is specifically high pressure plastic injection molding, so it can capture all those small intricate details on models.And those machines are very complex and extremely expensive and the molds for them are also stupidly expensive tol.
>>96832316Some acrylic resins react with plastic cement, it's just that most do not
>>96832200Every week there is some poor bastard who got scammed by recasters asking what to do about it.
>>96832365Dude I placed a substantial order at BLM because they're as legit as they come. Plenty of testimonials from real people which is what put me over the edge, since I have trust issues in general.They are better than FW in terms of quality.
>ResinI seriously hope you guys don't do this lmao
>>96832395Don't bother with the nomodels shitposter
>>96832285Fair point on forgeworld kit. The point I wanted to make was recasts never really saved me money. I don't know if it's been better in previous years. I own a couple other BLM casts from plastic kits and Its always been about the same cost as the eventual 2nd hand listing.
>>96832365And every week there are people getting dead perfect recasts as well. But that's not the same as what was stated here>>96832184, which is what we were discussing. There are good recasts, and bad recasts, and good batches and bad batches. It's not all black or white.
>>96832421All the recasters with actual websites are fucking your ass and making you bounce on it. A lot of them are purchasing their stock from other recasters, generally the ones who are invite/email only, qnd then marking it up. I think BLM specifically was one of those ones but it mightve been dark minis
>>96832445BLM makes their stuff in-house afaik, same with Tortuga
Sex with elves. That is all
i ____ elves
>>96832445On one hand I want to inquire how to get into that circle for personal order. But unless its going to actually save me cash and not take months to arrive I don't know if I care. I will say the BLM casts have all been mostly fine. The demon brutes are genuinely indistinguishable (I also own the forgeworld kit I'd post pics for comparison if I remember to after work, I filed and used milliput on both). The HH characters I got aren't so great. Overall the costs and quality don't make up for what I've seen go up on ebay over the years if I just waited.
