What's there to look forward to in the years to come? It feels like Horus Heresy has taken quite a bit of the wind out of the sails of 40K. If GW was a smart company (they're not) they'd focus more on Xenos for the time being.
>>97066523Based
>>97066527I feel the exact opposite honestlyTime for some developments between the loyalists vs. traitors
Have a paint recipe of yours that you love? Share it with the class! It can be a quick guide for your whole scheme or just a single detail/colour. Please separate steps via greentext, and provide a picture of your model featuring the recipe(blank white or single colour background is very much appreciated). Will dump a few replying to this post so people get the ideaTips issue #1https://imgur.com/a/cKc0O4v
From the Cawl novel.8 Xenos races are attacking/threatening Ultramar. Four are named. Orks, Necrons, Tyranids, and Tau.I guess it's a hint of what factions will be updated in 500 worlds?

>>97066570Ok fine.
>>97066506I will NOT fuck the big titty elf ladiesI will NOT fuck the big titty ork ladiesI WILL ABSOLUTELY NOT fuck the giant titty tau ladies I WILL have an awkward doomed romance with a sister of battle I WILL become a single father when our son is born because she's married to the job I WILL still send her letters occasionally which she will respond to with even more awkward letters trying to imitate what she thinks a good mother might be like I WILL die tragically leaving her wondering what it might have been like if we could have been a normal family
>>97066545Love that this and the rentry came out this yearThen it all turned kinda shit/shittier
>>97066541I think we need new traitors. Too many good guys. Split the new Imperium in two again. Have a second heresy with Imperial factions fighting a bloody civil war against each other. Chaos can sit on the sidelines for this one. They have Horus 's Heresy already.
>>97066549>8 Xenos races are attacking/threatening UltramaThat's all the Xenos factions. There are only 8 Xenos races.
The writing is a bit hard to read irl but I quite love how this turned out. I wonder if I should do something to make it more "tattoo" like but I think ill leave it.
>>97066549Or it's just GW adding some flavor text. Minor xenos aren't getting updated since 99% have never had any models anyway.
>>97066590Looks great anon

>>97066579You will fuck the big tiddy elf ladies. This is non-negotioable, Guilliman and Eldrad demand it so they can save the Eldar's declining birthrates.
>>97066584There's the same amount of good guys as there has always been. It's fine as is.

I'm trying to figure out my OC Craftworld. I've got the color scheme, now I need a symbol. What are some good sources for transfers that could work for Eldar? I have one of the old Fantasy Dark Elf sheets which has some good options, but those aren't in print anymore so tracking down enough for a full army might be tough.Any ideas would be appreciated!

Which paint do you use to highlight black? I use Vallejo Model Color Black, then I custom mix it with light gray (VGC Stonewall Grey) but it's a hassle to mix it each time.
>>97066714Great work. Battle reports are always fun and this is high effort
Okay I think I fixed it a little bit. Ill stop here with it cause I think any attempts to fix it further will just mess it up more.>>97066698Yeah thats exactly what I tried to do. >Captcha GGH2OEven captcha agrees, time to stop here with it and drink some water.

Trying to paint some Iron Warriors as a taste breaker from my guard. Here's the test model still WIP. I'm yet to do the base (thinking a martian dust sorta thing to contrast with the armour) and the transfers on the shoulders. Not really happy with the eye glow or the hazard stripes but it's my first time doing the glow at least and hazards are a pain to do on curved surfaces. Anyone got any tips or should I just use masking tape?
>>97066765>The blue monkeys can fuck themselvesTHE GREATER GOODS SHALL COME FOR YOU!!!
>>97066969do those guard have kilts lmao. Thats awesome.
>>97066891yeah its pretty rough in the ttrpg-sphereever since critical role that shit has become extraordinarily gayglad people are enjoying it but goddamn these people suck lol
I have come to really enjoy the Reavers a lot painting my Exorcists so I wanted this guy to be really cool since he’s gonna be leading them.He came with a wimpy little smoke effect so I beefed that up a lot, and he didn’t come with grav chutes for whatever reason so I made my own out of some mechanical wings I had laying around.The scroll cloak is just painters tape and modge podge.
>>97066969Oh nice to see you back. I think it's a good idea to lay down your yellow first and then sketch out your lines in mechanical pencil before going in with your black. You sure do have an attraction to stripes
>>97066995Nice
>>97066969>Drookanon returnsHoly shit
>>97066985They can go ahead and try
>>97066704I use the dark eldar ones, but you could also just print out a sheet. Temporary tattoo paper is cheap online and I'm pretty sure works with a laser printer.Did something similar years ago at Officeworks. G'day cunt.
>>97066527Here are my schizo predictions for what 11th edition will bring>Primaris scale Tactical Squad, kit includes some Mk VI/MkVII helmets alongside the Mk X. Primaris Hoverbikes are the new toy and replace Outriders (White Scars box was a way for GW to dump their stock)>Grey Knights refresh for Strike Squad and Terminator box, new plastic Kaldor Draigo>Catachan refresh for Guard (Jungle Fighters, HWT, Command Squad, plastic Sly Marbo, and a new light tank unit)>Imperial Agents and Imperial Knights get rolled into a single codex since most people only use the former as allied units anyways, introduce a new men-at-arms like unit that fits thematically with the Knights as their go-to battleline alongside the other IA options>Admech get a scaled down version of that one anon's walker kitbash as a new tank.>Dark Mechanicum as the new faction, half the faction is Admech stuff with an upgrade sprue included>CSM finally gets new Bikes with both melee and shooty options available (They're added to EC/WE too) along with a new Helbrute kit with legion-specific upgrades>EC gets Doomrider as a character alongside the new bikes>WE get Red Butchers in their wave 2>TS get a Sorcerer Helbrute as an option with the new kit>Orks get the big 11th Starter Refresh with new Boyz, Killa Kans, and a big gargant-like kit (The biggest plastic model GW has ever sold)>Eldar get plastic Karandas/Yriel, and a new Wraithlord kit with more pose options>Deldar get plastic Grotuesques and a Haemonculi characterAnyone not mentioned gets a pity character

I have finished my collage submission woo. I'll try to catch collage anon during the rest of the week, hopefully I dont miss him and if I do hopefully he sees this. Man this guy was fun. Once I got over the kitbashing indecisiveness at the start and glued the wings on (Which Im really glad I went with) the whole paintjob came together really well. I really love how he turned out. Lots of opportunities to freehand some stuff. I wish I could have done the idea i had for his left knee too but I think "too much of a good thing" is a concept I have a hard time abiding by sometimes. How's your guys' submissions coming along? Post models or wips.
>>97067190kino
Anons. Please help. Should I get this? I was thinking about starting either Night Lords, Iron Warriors, Emperor's Children or World Eaters. I'm leaning CSM due to a bigger range. Is this box good? I do have a 2x Nemesis Claw teams which I got before they were retired.
>>97067203It's a pretty solid starter box, have you painted models before? If not I would recommend just buying a box of legionaries to start to see if you even like building/painting them in the first place
>>97067206Yeah I can paint. I used to have a Warriors of Chaos army for WFB.
>>97067190absolute fucking kino anon i love the freehand. stylistically you are one of my favourite painters heremy single criticism is that imo the jetpack exhaust doesn't pop enough and doesn't stand out that much from the rest of the red on the model - have you considered doing it in blue?i've finished my submission and i'm working on the rest of my tau army now
Does anyone have any tips for painting black leather/black rubber?
>>97067203Good for CSM there's another NL killteam coming out next year to add on. For Iron Warriors I might not. WE or EC get one of their battleforces fi you can find it.
>>97067190Aces anon
>>97067192>>97067223>>97067244Thanks anons, big praise, I appreciate it.Yes I did think about doing it in blue, but I decided to go with yellow/orange on a whim instead, no particular reason. I did try making it as bright as possible with pure white before I layered in contrast over it. I think it pops a lot better in real life (really looks like some fiery exhaust heat) but I found it difficult to capture all of that in a picture. I had to use flash to get that pic angle at the bottom and its still a lot darker than it actually looks.Something to keep in mind for next time I suppose. I will eventually get to the actual chaos jump lord and his accompanying raptors, so maybe Ill do their jump pack boosters in bright blue glow, like my soulblight skeletons.
>>97067190Good stuff anon
>>97067222It’s a pretty great place to start for Vanilla Chaos Marines. Mind you though, Nightlords have a Bespoke kit in Nemesis Claw if you’re interested in them, and you can’t use this box for EC or WE because they’re separate factions now.
>>97067190Nice job anon, I particularly like the wings for some reason. Mine's done as well, I'll repost him one last time I guess
>>97066584The Imperium was already split in half, fuck off with that.
>>97067190Are you the guy those two nomodels had a spergout over for not scraping the aquila off and not buying GS?
>>97066558>>97066545
>>97067272Very spicy. You should continue to share him, he turned out great
>>97067261Thanks>>97067272Im glad you like the wings. I was surprised they turned out so good, because on a whim I decided to use some sigvald burgundy to darken the top halves, and it turned out unexpectedly nicely. I'll definitely use that going forward. Speaking of blue glow, I really love the way you did yours. Did you use an airbrush or do it manually? If its manual which Im betting it is, can you share your process/paints please?>>97067277Yeah I think so. For the record they still didnt have greenstuff in stock at my lgs, so if I didnt just go for it back then and waited I probably wouldn't have gotten this model done by now.
I justwant a leman russ
>>97067307Cheers anon>>97067310I initially wanted to use an airbrush but eventually I just drybrushed/stippled it before gluing him to the disc. I used ak ocean blue-ak turquoise-baharroth blue-white, building it up very slowly. Afterwards I smoothed it out with some glazes. Make sure to use a brush with very soft bristles and only move it in one direction from your established light source. Makeup brushes like picrel are fantastic for this. Oh and keep it just a tiny bit damp so you won't get a chalky finish.

the absolute state of this thread
good morning saars
>tfw its so hot here that my wet palette is drying within an hour of paintingbros, i am NOT comfy
>>97068357How hot could that really be Also thanks for reminding me that I need to get my ass up and actually paint
>>97068358>How hot could that really beIt's hot enough.

>>97068476>succumbing to "everyone who disagrees with me is one person" diseaseAt least you fixed itNah I think I will complain about your tasteless bullshit actually

>>97068558post models with timestamp
>>97068560Busted you bitching about the thread as usual and now you cry for models without posting your own...pathetic.
You know, if it weren't super cringe to do so, I would definitely say that /mydudes/ are loyalist emperor's children successors. Preheresy emperor's children were pretty good desu and I like their aesthetic
>>97068562>no modelswhat possesses you to badly roleplay as the thread lolcow?
>>97068566What possesses you to be an annoying bitch?
>>97068564There are the Sons of the Phoenix who have an inversion of the EC heresy colors. They claim to be Fist successors but that's clearly a lie.
>>97068575Lmao that's actually quite funny
Unironically this thread is still better than any time the anti-Eldar autist lets his autism get the better of him while he's still at work.>>97068575It's always Dorn or Guilliman taking in the strays.
>>97068575>>97068596I thought about it a bit more and this almost does encourage me to just send it, but 1. My chapter is ultima founding which would mean for this to make sense it would require cawl just directly disobeying guilliman's direct orders to use only loyalist genes. I feel like directly contradicting lore like that would be kinda retarded2. Making them emperor's children instead of blood angels would kind of undermine a pretty key part of their identity as a strong psykic chapterBlood angels are already second best in terms of being pretty boy marines so I'll stay the course I suppose>>97068638It makes sense. They seem to have the most stable geneseed and most successors, making it easier to blend in
>>97068534Here you go lad. First tip for issue#2
>>97066989Yeah, they're Drookian Fen Guard, a fairly obscure chapter. I wanted to challenge myself to learn to paint faces and do green stuff and the anons here have been very supportive. >>97067001I didn't use my wet palette for this model which I think was a mistake and everything is coming out thicker than usual. I'll give that a go, thanks. >>97067010I've been busy with painting Turnip28 and some hectic real life stuff, but I never want to stay away from my favourite thread of reprobates for long.
>>97068691Care to provide a tip and a closeup on your plaid drookieanon? Would love to have you in issue 2
good morning i like women
>>97068664>blood angelEven with the lore as written they have nothing to do with the blangles.
>>97068698It's a black primer then a couple of layers of straken green, washed with nuln. Over that I do a grid of Thousand Sons blue. Then over that, I do another grid in eshin grey, offset slightly so the grids overlap. Finally I use a bit of khorne red and go over the top of the blue with a narrow red line so that the blue still shows either side of it. The important thing has that the 'grids' are still visible and look like they both overlap and have layers to them to create the illusion of depth. You can swap this around with whatever colours you like to make different clan tartans.I'm on my phone right now but a while back I posted a photo break down layer by layer if another anon wants to share it. I'll post it when I'm back at the desk if this thread is still up.

Now we know why Space Wolves are getting special treatment. One of GW's current sculptors collected space wolves since they were a kid.
>>97068759Several people got banned last thread, we should get a couple of days of good threads.
I'm genuinely saddened that there are so few hobby/model posters and the ones that do post either best case mostly get ignored or worst case gets bashed on. The ratio of generic goonslop to hobby/model posters is like 10:1 in an average /40kg/ thread when it should be the other way around. There are adult men presumably over the age of 14 who actually thought it was a good idea to make these terrible posts>>97068385>>97068241>>97068275>>97068476Hats off to you guys who still have the motivation to do hobby posting but it seems like the easiest way to get engagement is to just post porn addict bait.

>>97068778Modelposting rises and falls, it really depends on the thread.Nice models

>>97068797I'm still waiting on the black templars codex.
>use a trygon proxy as a mawloc>use a patriarch proxy as a broodlord im guessing this wouldnt upset anyone in a casual game but do tourney bros get annoyed with this?
>>97068894I don't think just simply using an existing model in place of another is a thing allowed at tourneys. Contact the organizers if you want to be sure.
>>97068778I've been enjoying painting shitty blue lines on my first nids but im realising that this process is going to take a very long time to complete an army. Thought id try my best to bump up the model posting
>>97068894Definitely not OK in tourneys
>>97068898I mean a trygon and mawloc are the same size with minor differences, not sure about a patriarch & broodlord
>>97068912It's not just about the size. The games are timed, your opponent must be able to recognize your units at a glance. Anything that may cause confusion or additional time to ask/confirm what a mini is supposed to be is strongly discouraged.
where do i get combi-weapons
>>97068946Ebay.
>>97068946Heresy kits
>>97067875Ash wastes nomads are from 1991 and Morrowind was 2002 so unless early Bethesda was inspired by GW seems like a concidence and just convergent evolution.God I wish 40k had the strangness and otherwordlyness of early elder scrolls lore
>>97068778Some months we get tons of modelposting, sometimes not so much. It's a busy time of year for a lot of people. Models. Nice iw
>/40kg/ speeding up againBots are back online or what
>>97068971Think so. People are getting banned again too if you check the archives deleted posts whereas everything was sticking around before. Seems like yesterday's lorefag spergout was when it really picked up again
>>97068956Which ones?
I played a game of DG the other day and I feel so spread thin, especially against Tyranids. It's so hard to properly screen my backline because I only have so many poxwalkers and I ideally want to have at least one unit pushed forward so I can do advance + contagion when I decide to go aggressive.Really feels like a very elite army now.
>>97068894>>97068907>Patriarch as BroodlordShould be sensible even at a tourney IMO, they are BASICALLY the same unit lorewise/statwise and they're not really soup-able into each other armies so idk how thats a no-no thing as long as you put it on an oval Broodlord base>Trygon as MawlocNow thats where I think tourney people might be iffy on>>97068898I've seen plenty of conversions and kitbashes on local tourneys, even bigger ones with 50+ people attending, should be ok as long as its sensible
Why does Ynarri gets the coolest elf models? Specially because you can mix drukhari.
>>97068986>oval baseahh thats what it is, just realised the base sizes are different, how frustrating
>>97068996You could magnetize + peg them, should be stable enough if somewhat awkward perhaps
what ork units are strong as fuck against deldar, in particular reapers wager?
>>97068971I think it's just that brits are awake.
>>97068995The visarch has the coolest armour among any eldar, wish we got a faction that was heavily armoured in ornate eldar armour
anyone know if any of the model paint manufacturers make glow in the dark paint? just looking for a green atm
>>97069007Elite infantry focused heavily armored eldar faction.Thats my dream.
>>97069007>Give the coolest Eldar armor to a colossal cuckFeels a bit fitting.
>>97068976Nvm you only get two gun bodies in the mk1v I was thinking of, sorry anon.
Do Eldar grow pubic hair?
>>97069011Do you want glow in the dark or black light sensitive. Because most fluos are black light sensitive. Golden makes one but it's fucking expensive. Try and find the tube, the pot is enormous and you'll never ever get through one
>>97069023If you want them to.
>>97069033preferably the former. it looks like the art shop a few streets from me sells that brand of paint, i just dont know if they sell that one in particular >50 AUD a potyeah fucking hell
>>97066506I'm gonna be trying third ed for the fisrt time today. Wish me luck boyz :D
>>97069023Sure, why not?
>>97069007Corsairs had something like it, which were clearly meant to be Ynnari troops but then repurposed into a kill team.
>>97069049Tbf the pot is massive. If you've ever seen the ak texture paste pots they're about the same size
>>97069058Take pictures or I'll shoot you with a gun in third edition >:(
>>97069049golden paints are fucking expensive but they're generally a level above hobby paints they can also use big boy pigments like cadmium which you really don't want to fuck around with
>>97069007So Corsairsother Corsairs will follow this design
>>970691296000pt army of choice to brush lick the vintage Indian yellow, do you accept
>>97068778Been sick all week so I havent had the energy to paint. Feeling better though so I'll probably have something this weekend.
>>97069136I wonder when they'll release more.Also, if I want to play Ynarri/Corsairs, which codex should i get? Just eldar? Is Ynarri still a separate book? Last time I was following Warhammer it was.
>>97069157They are in Eldar codex and can use some of Deldar units which are also in that codex
>>97069023Nah, hair below eyebrows is for animal
>>97069007Times ago and according to rumours, Visarch must be a corsair prince as yvraine must be a Malys.
>>97069177Hmm I can see why people thought both. What would the avatar of Ynnead be? Or was he created once Malys became Yvraine and the visarch was his one thing
>>97066545Jade green.Hefty dose of Caliban Green baseWash with 50/50 Nuln Oil and Biel Tan GreenThick highlight of Kabalite Green (highlight, not layer), no need to be clean, you can afford to have it thick as long as it doesnt touch the deep recesses.Classic non thick highlight of Warpstone Glow on the raised parts.Thin highlight of Sybarite Green on the most raised parts.Dots of Moot Green on the peaks of highlight.
>>97069182>>97066545Shit, this pic might be better, more green in them
>>97069181Maybe some named slaaneshi daemon, because of one titted torse
>>97069182Here you go anon. I tried doing a second one with the group shot but there wasn't a super nice way to make it fit>>97068754I'll wait for that photo guide you've got, but I've got yours all drafted up so I can add it on whenever you find some time to upload it. No rush.
>>97069230more of carnac’s crappy painting tips
>>97069242seethe harder
>>97069242>>97069246Don't samefag your own bait
>>97066545Black inquisitorial stormtrooper armour:>prime black>basecoat of vallejo dunkelgrau>volumetric highlights with mechanicus standard grey>spot and edge highlight with administratum grey>blackline with black legion contrast thinned down
>>97069242Carnac is largely associated with the identity of u/Shaskais who is mostly believed to be a nomodels lore "enthusiast" that posts on r/Grimdank and makes bait posts with same spacing, "we've been over this" etc. rationale. Allegedly has a tau killteam but noone has ever seen one. So no, Carnac is not just any person you don't like".
>>97068982unless nids have some 6" deep strike a single poxwalker (and tallyman) should be enough to protect your backfield. also honestly you should have some bloat drones with blight launchers blocking some space.
>>97069257Here you go anon>>97069242Who>>97069260Oh okay, weird
>>97069260Carnac is older than Grimdank.
>>97069163Thanks!I'll go with them, just checked the codex pdf and they do get the coolest Drukhari units too
>>97069285They used to get a lot more. But then they lost quite a few in the most recent codex incarnation. Mandrakes and Scourges in particular.You also can't use the full CWE range (mostly Phoenix Lords but also Avatar).Ynnari rules and roster changes every single edition. So fair warning that you will always be at the mercy of however much GW wants to support or limit souping fractions together in each version of their rules.
started broadside #3
>>97069127Not if I shoot you first >:D
>>97069306Meh its okIm not going to play competitively, im mostly interested in Kill Team and Boarding Actions/Patrols just for fun.And collecting and painting cool minis.
>>97069129>>97069122Appreciate it anons, im keen to try it out
>>97066969Have you gotten married yet drookianon?
>>97069284And I am older than 4chan, your point?
>>97069284
>>97069332That I find it weird to explain who Carnac is by way of his reddit shenanigans when he was a plague on tg for much longer.
>>97069284Have you not claimed that he started in 8th edition. Grimdank opened in like 2012. 8th edition launch is 2017
>>97069343I really doubt the first post mentioning Carnac in relation to /tg/ and 40 kilo general specifically is much - if at all - older than the first notions of reddit activity of said account, they are very likely concurrent>when he was a plague on tg for much longerAnd this is obvious because the account wasn't found out until after the damage was already inflicted on the general, duh
being obsessed with board celebs is really fucking sad
This is why the only solution is >TOTAL LOREFAG DEATH
>>97069383Who said anything about celebs?
>>97066527imagine unironically believing this. HH is a cash cow that will only be further exploited down the line.
>>97069343This place has a kneejerk reaction of calling out even the most milquetoast newfag shitposters after the thread boogeymen so I'd be weary of anyone claiming to be a fucking carnac/ben/decalmutant scholar.
>Total War 40k is announced un 7 daysWill anons here play it?
>>97069405That kinda depends on whether it is shit or not. Not having high hopes desu, CA hasn't released anything worthwhile in a decade.
>>97069405yes
>>97069405As long as there are no black women. Otherwise day 1 pirate (if it isn't shit)
>>97068778I'd post more often but I don't want to repost too much and get a schizo orbiter. Just earlier today O&Tfag got shitposted on in /wip/ by one of the dramachasing retards from this cesspool, I don't need this shit
>>97069412You speak the truth (O&T is still a paint scheme that sucks and doesn't work thoughbeit).
>>97069404Helps if it's not within 5 posts of someone recycling old slopper scripts as well
>>97069419trying too hard
anyone else here with an airbrush setup still use rattle cans to prime? i appreciate how fast they dry and are ready to paint over almost immediately
>>97069433Both are nice for different reasons. I like rattlecan priming stuff that will be used in lots of games so it's more durable
TOTAL WAR 40K INCOMINGTOTAL WAR 40K INCOMINGTHIS IS NOT A DRILLVALRAK HAS THUS DECREED!!!!!!
>>97069404Hey at least it's not Ben. That was a fun time.
I know this isn't a place for people who do anything with the hobby but I need some helpThe short version is I want to do a pretty colour transition and a GW tutorial said to thin down my paint with their special substance that costs money, or waterMy friend also says to never paint without thinning my paints (how do you even do that when you're painting the surface of details and don't want it to seep into the crevices? A lot of this stuff is runny to begin with)Every time I do any of this, it just pushes the pigment to the edge of the "bubble" or creates a blotchy, dirty effect with uneven paintBasically this makes everything from transitions to rust look like shit and I don't know what I'm doing wrong, especially when most tutorials are the first brush stroke followed by a quick timeskip to it being finished
>>97069433I was for a while there as it felt like the paint adhered to the surface a model far better if it was primed with a spray can as opposed to primer through an airbrush
>>97069444>amagerrrrrrdfuck off
>>97069405Depends. It'll probably be like DoW4 and be primarislop with zero classic units so I won't really bother. But in any case I seriously doubt a game using the Total War combat formula in the 40k setting can work.
>>97068778Modeling and painting takes time. I don't want to be posting the exact same pics of my models over and over. I have a game today I might post about it but my lgs has shit mdf terrain so I don't usually bother. I'm trying to convince the owner to print some gothic ruins at least.
>>97069454Terminators are such a fantastic design
>>97069451Why would they greenlight TWO rts games at the same time to compete against each other for an already niche fanbase?
>total war 40k can't work!!>the engine can't handle it>Creative Assembly doesn't know how to make a sci fi game!You retards said that same thing when Fantasy got announced. That there's no way they'll be able to make magic, zombies, dragons, dinosaurs, and flying units & tanks, and lasers work. And yet they were able to do it.Also they already have experience when they made fucking Halo Wars 2
>>97069459They get the same money from the license at zero investment.
>>97069459the (((stockholders))) need to buy their third yacht!
>>97069459GW have no say over release windows, that's the publishers' prerogative
>>97069446Proper acrylic medium will achieve thinning without ruining the fluid tension, what youre describing, at least to a degree. And its part of the reason to not use water. You can however use water fine with enough practice and learning your paints (all paints and brands have different). If you are painting very fine detail like eyes or pin lines, you shouldn't thin your paint too much because of exactly what you describe, regardless the medium.
>>97069460Notice how Halo Wars 2 is nothing like a Total War game? I'm not saying CA can't make a good rts game for 40k, I'm saying the Total War combat formula doesn't work for 40k.
It would be funny if you can't win as the Imperium only slow down the loss of worlds with massive manpower and armaments. Every campaign victory is just not losing X amount of territory by X date
>25% off on everything>buying 500ml of paint instead of modelsI got enough models that I need to paint already still getting a unit of 5 atalan jackals
>>97069465So am I fucked with doing something like a "metallic" sword or breastplate or do I just need to use very little water compared to the amount of paint?I'm using citadel paints
>>97069459why would GW care they just give license to everyone who asks. Multiple "competing" turn based 40k games are being released constantly, just like action games now
>>97069476you'll likely just have to reduce the load on your brush and apply more layers
>>97069446you don't need to thin modern paints much for general uses. it's become kind of antiquated advice and a meme beloved by long-time painters who remember the dark times when everything wasn't "airbrush ready". use a wet palette, don't let your brush dry out (rinse and recharge more often then you feel you need to) and use a tissue to absorb any excess paint/water before applying it to the model (every time, make it a habit) and you should have no problems using paint straight from the bottle almost all of the time. if you are trying to glaze, which seems to be in-fashion among youtuber shills, then thinning the paint right down is important. as is absorbing the excess before touching your model and flooding it. it's a niche technique that most painters hsouldn't bother with when layering is so much more forgiving.
Remember when people doxxed Ben and calimed that he was some russian guy living in the UK?Was that actually him or did you retards just doxxed some random shmuck
>>97069486nobody cares about any of these fags
>>97069486Oh it was him. His sister was hot too.
>>97069481Alright thank you anon I'll keep trying>>97069485>before applying it to the modelI didn't think about that
>>97068904I kinda wished I painted mine in the same way. I chose the lazy way and just drybrushed shit.
>>97069486It was him, anons found his minis on reddit and then his socials through that.
>>97069505I was thinking about just doing that but i thought id torture myself instesd
Does anyone here bother basing those clear flying stands? Its not a +10 vp requirement is it?
>>97069485Dont write off glazing or discourage good practice in layering. They are one in the same. All good practice in glazing will apply to layering and vice versa. Its not just wet blending.
>>97069486GW should create a new character with the name Lyuben as an homage to Ben. Maybe a new Vostroyan character!
>>97069515They're looking decent enough to field them on table, but a lot of stuff went wrong with it. The wash I used was bad and dried super shiny, varnish kinda got frosted etc. I've only 10 of these guys but I'll eventually get another 10, it's just too good of a unit.
>>97069528I think its safe to say they're the most iconic alien GW has ever made. Or at least the 'platonic ideal of an alien as a toy figure' like space marines are platonic ideal of space super soldier toy
>>97069230Found the pic I was thinking of, hopefully this helps contextualise my steps a bit better.
>>97069539genestealers aren't iconic, they're derivative carnifex are iconic
>>97069526The legend that is Ben deserves nothing less.
>>97069539I think the Ork Warboss is definitely the most iconic 40k Xeno by image alone.Genestealers are just xenomorph knockoffs, even if they've got Space Hulk pedigree.
>>97069451Primaris are kings and I’ll never touch anything that has fucking firstborn shit in it. It’s why I skipped space marine 2.
>>97069558orks, eldar, necrons and votann don't count as actual xenos, they're sci fi fantasyonly nids and tau are alien factions
>>97069565Should Votann be like this instead of the sci-fi stuff?
>>97069553I personally think Warriors or even Zoanthropes are a bit more iconic than Carnifexes when it comes to nids.
>>97069581no, they should be as they are, space dwarfs, but they simply aren't real aliens despite the webstore classification
>>97069581>Destiny x 40k crossover artThis is a new level of autism I did not think I would ever see
>>97069563You're trying too hard.
>>97069597No you haven’t seen me try.
>>97069584They are at best abhumans, but since the GW refuses to use the Non Imperium or Non chaos human classification we are stuck with Votan niggers and lame retcons for the Demiurg
>>97069444>TOTAL WAR 40K INCOMINGYeah, that's called Dawn of War 4.
I think it’s funny how everyone forgot that one domination 40k mobile game that got announced.
>>97069670>mobile
>every MWG batrep the past 6 months has been older editions or 30k10th really is dead huh
>>97069698yes, you're free to move on to a different game now so you can stop shitposting here
>>97069709I don't want to move on I want them to make the game good again.
Happy Thanksgiving, everyone. It's a time to remember that, according to official GW sources, this holiday is about Eldar women being dutiful wives for their Human husbands.
>>97069725And eating orks apparently.
>>97069730Well of course there's a black templar on the table the food needs to be halal.
>>97069730Ever had fried mushrooms?
>>97069730Mushrooms are edible.
>Regularly play against adult who frequents my LGS and uses nothing but vehicles>Have to explain in multiple games the attack/damage dynamic>Gets pissy when his single melta shot doesn't kill six Battle Sisters at onceThe true skill in casual 40K is babysitting difficult opponents.
>>97069711yeah bitching about it on a mongolian basket weaving forum is a fantastic way to accomplish that
>>97069739>>97069738but are mushrooms sentient?
>>97069746I don't get why barely functional retards pick up a gane with rules that run to like 25 pages minimum
>>97069711>I don't want to move on I want them to make the game good again.The game has consistently gotten worse with every passing edition. What the fuck makes you think that GW will somehow turn this shit around and get their act together?
>>97069755So? Who cares, just eat them anyway.
>>97069755yes
>>97069746If he ever played MTG, I did when I was in highschool, tell him that shit doesn't have "Trample" in 40k.
>>97069620>but since the GW refuses to use the Non Imperium or Non chaos human classificationI feel like they're correct not to and I feel like third faction humans are a detriment to the setting
>>97069620We don't use that word here.
>>97069808the tau effectively fill that niche anyway with their human traitors
>>97069620This isn't the first time abhumans have been reclassified as xenos horriblis or mutant terriblis or something.
>>97069746this is how I feel playing vs custodes players who get mad when they roll a one a few times in a battle

>>97069620>>97069838The LoV squats are just abhumans.Only reason why GW lumped them into the "xenos" tab on their webstore is for the simple reason that they are not going to make a "abhuman" tab for a single army.And since the LoV clearly aren't aligned with the imperium and neither with chaos, so it leaves just "cenos".The "xenos" tab might as well just be "non-imperium and non-chaos armies"
>>97069812>tau fill that niche>by having 0 models and 0 rules for themCan we just go back to playing 3rd/4th where this state was true.
>>97069924I was going to mention that. They aren't even pertinent in mainline Tau books (codex/campaign). Pretty much only seeing any real mention in Black Library novels.
>>97069755I'd eat Tau
>>97069905>The LoV squats are just abhumans.They are legally xenos, just like Beastmen are about to become reclassified as xenos according to Liber Xenologis>Beastmen are seen less in Imperial service than they were before. They are now subject to severe Imperial persecution and have been placed on the Register of Proscribed Citizens (Class A-G worlds) by the Adeptus Arbites. As such, they are effectively precluded from settlement on, or transportation to or from, more than three hundred thousand worlds of the Imperium and are forbidden from being conscripted as an Imperial Tithe obligation. Many interpret these restrictions as a sign that Beastmen will soon lose their abhuman status and be reclassified as Xenos Horrificus, thus marked for eradication.Same shit goes for gene-kissed humans that are part of GSC, they're still categorized as xenos in spite of being hypnotized humans. There is no real "non-imperium and non-chaos armies" gotcha there
>>97069935>They are legally xenosNo, they are just abhumans. The whole "they are le xenos" is just Imperium bureocracy being retarded (which is also very OFTEN wrong).And just because the imperium regularly labels shit with a wrong label out of ideological reasons, it doesn't however make them correct. It just shows that the imperium isn't driven by any logic or actual reason, they are driven by ideology and retardation.>beastmen are about to become reclassified as xenosNo, they are specifically close to LOSING their ABHUMAN status. They are in danger of being labeled as full MUTANTS, not xenos.This shit is mentioned in every variation of the fluff concerning abhumans and beastmen specifically.Go be a secondary elsewhere.
>>97069760>What the fuck makes you think that GW will somehow turn this shit around and get their act together?Because the general attitude in the community is reaching the low levels of 7th. Doubling down on the things that people are getting tired of won't make them more money.
>>97069905You just know if they did make an abhuman tab idiots would start spamming their facebook with>WHATS NEXT FOR ABHUMANS? OGRYN ARMIES?
>>97066549Xenos gonna get squatted and 40k will officially be marines vs marines
>>97069924I want guevesa to become breachers. Let humans be close assault troops while tau engage from a safer distance.
>>97069972Okay, but will they make the marine armor also not look like goofy shit? Because otherwise I'll stick with horus heresy.
You now remember the Ynnari Say something nice about them!
>>97069924In what way was it different in 3rd or 4th? Tau already had human defectors back then without any rules so we're on the same state.
>>97069969>the company who keeps making their product worse and worse>despite this they have massive record profits every year pretty much>the same company who posted facebook bragging about how their rules writer team does like 1 test game every 2 weeks when writing the new edition.>nah bro, they will turn around stop being penny pinching assholes and their rule writing team will stop being idiots magically, and start giving a fuck about the rules againYeah, no.
>>97069979Yvraine was fucking hot
>>97069971Yes, I am fully aware of that. Making the separate tab is a dumb idea.And I don't think GW needs to do that. We don't need an ogryn specific army.
>>97069979I like the aesthetic they were going for.
>>97069979I like Yvraine's feet
>>97069958>The whole "they are le xenos" is just Imperium bureocracy being retarded (which is also very OFTEN wrong).Thats the point silly. Its the same shit as Pope declaring capybaras as fish for crusaders during their fasts.Abhuman isn't some rigid biological term at all, its a legal one.>No, they are specifically close to LOSING their ABHUMAN statusDid you genuinely miss the part about being reclassified as xenos or are you trying to pull straws?>as full MUTANTS, not xenos>"lose their abhuman status and be reclassified as Xenos Horrificus">"reclassified as Xenos Horrificus">"reclassified as Xenos Horrificus">"reclassified as Xenos Horrificus"Caryatid are also technically known as Xenos at least insofar as Janus Draik has to specifically wonder if they MIGHT be abhumans in spite of being wildly believed to be Xenos (in spite of having Homo Sapiens in their High Gothic name lol). Abhuman-as-xenos isn't some thing GW has done to just shove LoV somewhere on their site, it has been around already.
>>97069985Cruddace has left the company and Kelly is back leading the writers. Hoare leads the specialist studio and the 30k rules are all 40k wishes it was. There's a chance. If only they could get Kinrade back aswell to relaunch Imperial Armour.
>>97069971Yes we want 40k Ogre Kingdoms. Make them an abhuman faction that can be aligned with both the imperium and orks
>>97070002>but they are about to be labeled as xenosAnd they are still just mutants. Also that xenos part only appears in Liber Xenos from 2021 made by, you guessed it Black Library.Everything else just says the beastmen are about to be labeled as full mutants and nothing else.The dumbass who wrote that book is just an idiot.
>>97070008>40k Ogre KingdomsKrootbros it's our time
>>97070008>mmmm yes>we need more faction bloat in this gameJust no. Just fucking no.
>>97069979Yvraine set Eldar writing back to the days of Taldeer getting dicked down by a Vindicare, only on a much larger and publically accepted scale. Even now the only thing she's remembered for is the porn she spawned, and a few artists who continue to draw her being Guilliman's loyal lapdog. The irony that this makes her the most popular Eldar character by a significant margin is still funny.
>>97069979Going to name my daughter Yvraine
>>97070008>Yes we want 40k Ogre Kingdomssaid no one ever. it's shit like this that gave us nucrons and votann
The game needs 40k Vampire Counts and Nagash>inb4 we already have Blood AngelsNope, a single chapter/legion of pretty blond fuckboys with sharp teeth don't count
>>97069979uuuuum.... Visarch looks cool I guess
>>97070024But what about the Beastwomen?
>>97070008>>97070048We don't need ogre kingdoms in space.Just add more ogryn units to guard, there done. Hell, GW could just make that one dark heresy "ogryn gunlugger" into a proper unit.
>>97068698not drookanon but I saved this eons ago
>>97070059They are about to be labeled as dairy cows.Imperium will use their breast milk as ingredients and rations for the citizenry and guard.
>>97070055How would you even turn the Vampire Counts into sci-fi?
>>97070061do they even need more ogryns? I feel like its chaos that could use them.
>>97070070Blood Angels.
>>97069979It has spawned more tin foil hat theories about the inner workings and long-term plans of GW than any other release I have ever seen
"warhammer fantasy but in space" has always been the weakest parts of 40k. the most popular stuff has always broken away and ripped off other properties.
>>97070061Two units and a named character is plenty for what is basically dunk on retards
>>97070055>>97070070Bros, Dark Eldar are right there>Feed on slave chattel through inflicting pain>Immortal aristocratic leaders lording over ghoulish servants while being difficult to permanently kill>Necromancer covens conducting prifane and unnatural experiments to create monsters
>>970699803rd/4th 4th was just 3.5rd since it was a compilation of all the faq, CA, erratas and random rules that 3rd had had rules for human traitors in Tau, Chaos and non chaos form.Here you can see two example about it. On the left a version of IG rules to run traitor human tau and on the right traitor humans to run them in a Tau army.
>>97070081Has it? Chaos and orks are both from WHFB.
>>97070070During the Great Crusade there were many freaky non-imperium human empires that the legions destroyed because they were too far gone or used forbidden technologies.Make them one of those mutant abhuman empires that somehow survived the crusade and resurfaced
>>97070024>"WELL I DONT LIKE IT NUHUH!"-ass appeal to sourceLol dude by your twisted logic GSC shouldn't be in Xenos as well>Everything else just says the beastmen are about to be labeled as full mutants and nothing else.The only information about re-labeling comes from Liber Xenologis
>>97070088exactly
>>97070055I agree, however Blood Angels (yes), NIGHT LORDS and necrons (since necrons are 40k tomb kings which themselves were split along vamp counts from Necromancers back then) do cover a lot of ground.I still want 40k vampires Which is why I wrote some, taking some inspiration from RT vampires
>>97070055You're just describing Dark Eldar.That's your vampire counts in space.
>>97070069>They are about to be labeled as dairy cows.>Imperium will use their breast milk as ingredients and rations for the citizenry and guard.YAY!
>>97070087Is this from IA or WD? I have the 3rd edition codex and it doesn't have rules for gue'la.That aside, I don't really get what niche would this unit fill. Just looks like a worse version of strike teams. I think if they bumped the squad size to 10-20 and had some other limitation (like only 1 unit per army) so Tau armies don't just become hordes of humans then it could be a nice option.
>>97070048Nucrons are superior to Oldcrons because C'tan are a dogshit nothingburger that was never even remotely thought out
>>97070088Don't forget Necrons being space Tomb Kings and Craftworld/Dark Eldar being High/Dark Elves
>>97070055>>97070070>non-xenoGODS don't know about Khrave>which already are successors to old Necromundan vampiresFeeble, cursed one.
>>97070100Then what's your point? If 40k's most popular parts are from WHFB then you can't really say it's one of its weakest points, quite the opposite.>>97070110Can't really consider necrons when they drink much, much more from Terminator than from Tomb Kings (even if the later retcon gave them egyptian themes). Elves I feel have never been that popular in 40k, at least compared to orks or chaos but I may be wrong.
>>97070107It's from WD/chapter approved, but these rules were kinda bland. Gue'vesa should replace breachers, make them close-range specops
>>97069581>>97069592Back when I played Destiny 1 I always felt that the Hive would fit reasonably well into 40k. Dunno how fucked the lore has gotten in D2.
>>97070099>Lol dude by your twisted logic GSC shouldn't be in Xenos as wellNo, GSC are still xenos because they are xenos hybrids. They are quite literally genestealer rape babies.Beastmen are not.>The only information about re-labeling comes from Liber XenologisAnd my point is that every other lore source on beastmen just says they are about to lose their abhuman status and be labeled as full mutants. They don't talk about anything about them being labeled as xenos at all.I'll take older more numerous sources saying that beastmen are going to be labeled as full mutants as more canon and more accurate.Than 1 dipshit book made 4 years ago by some retard who clearly hasn't read the original fluff.
>>97070120Destiny is weird because all the stuff that they reused (ie. basic concepts and enemy designs) is fantastic but the story they wrote around them after changing writers for the fifth time all sucks.
>>970701073rd/4th had a decade worth rules. Spread across WD, IA, GW websites (each country had their own so even more random rules), Erratas, FAQ, etc.>I don't really get what niche would this unit fill.It would be cool. This is a wargame after all, it is like the Japanese lunge mines, game wise there are better things, but you use them in your games because they are cool.
>We want 40k Ogres and Vampires!!!BRING BACK THE RANGDAN. THEY WERE PRETTY COOL IN THE HH BLACK BOOKS>akshually they are supposed to be 40k's Punic to the Imperium's Rome and they should never be fleshed outSHUT THE FUCK UP. BRING THEM BACK
>>97070081>"warhammer fantasy but in space" has always been the weakest parts of 40k.Warhammer 40k IS warhammer fantasy but in space.
>>97069979Next edition they'll reveal the entire Ynnari plotline was kist a hallucination that Yvraine had while she laid dying in one of Commoragh's arenas, drugged and poisoned and she slips into Slaanesh's "loving" embrace.
>>97070138>bring them back>backThere were never there
>>97070131>And my point is that every other lore source on beastmen just says they are about to lose their abhuman status and be labeled as full mutantsGo ahead and find me that source, because there is none that goes into detail about their explicit excommunication for being mutants in particular, because you wont find one.
>>97070137>3rd/4th had a decade worth rules.Yeah I was genuinely asking so I could look them up in detail. I have pretty much all the 3rd edition material so I wanted to restrict the search a bit. Tangentially related but it's funny how arguably the best regarded era of 40k is the one that was stable for a decade instead of being forced into 3 year cycles.>It would be cool. This is a wargame after allFair but still there should be a reason to take a unit when designing it or at least make them roughly equivalent so that it's a thematic choice.
>>97070138Rangdan didn't have anything going for them aside from MAYBE being a Slaugth slave-race that they used as a scapegoat/meatshield.
>>97070138Reminder that the Rangdan are descibed as "Vulpine"....They're fucking fox furries
>>97069581Votann are Cabal and should stay Cabal.
>>97070161If you want to waacfag, they are 4 point cheaper than a regular firewarrior squad.
>>97070171No remotely credible source I found describes them as vulpine
>>97070171I would actually love if they did that. They're probably make them ugly but proxies would save the day
>>97070055Hypothetically Nagash coming to 40k would hate Nids for eating all the bodies but plenty of battlefields full of corpses would mean lots of zombie slaves.
>>97070220>Nagash begjns to re-animated Nids because of the abundance of corpses>His will begins to clash with the Hive Mind>As more Nids are resurrected the clash grows more and more indistinguishable>Nagash eventually fuses with the Hive Mind, forming the Gravemind
>image limit hitShould I bake?
>>97070115Chaos and orks are not the most popular parts of 40k.
>>97070239Yes, use the Yvraine/Guilliman Thanksgiving pic as is required.
>>97070239no, it would just be spammed with porn all over again
