I don't think it would really change much to replace model pics with a model pics with some muzzle flares added let alone "improve" anything. I'd prefer more art and maybe clipping out those pages they include in every codex where it's just the box art store pics. Cinematic photos are cool, but the more of them you see the more you realize they all kinda look the same.
>>97209863
I think a tan sandstone and a brass with lots of verdigris could be cool
>>
>>97209945
Back in 6th there was a guy who played a Dark Angels origin chapter named the Archangels, he even put some tape over the "Dark Angels" on his codex and wrote Archangels on it. He was a cool guy, always ran Deathwing lists.

But even back then /yourdudes/ and custom lore talk was rare. Nowadays everyone just paints canon color schemes and runs tournament scenarios.

I don't think anyone needs to hear about /yourdudes/ unless they specifically ask about it. I do think it's a lot of fun to come up with fluff to make you enjoy /yourdudes/ more. I've got names for all my dudes, as well as the command structure laid out for them and a couple blurbs about the chapter in general, but I'd never force anyone to sit there and listen to me rattle it off.

Yes. People who exist in the real world do occasionally use social media sites and share their stuff. Just because you're incapable/uninterested with coming up with /yourdudes/ lore doesn't mean nobody else is either

Everyone I know and seen just do canon color schemes. They run named characters, they don't give a fuck. Homebrew armies tend to be extremely rare and isolated to dedicated hobbyists

>>97210136
Space wolves have ALWAYS been wolf aesthetic first and foremost. Wolf pelts, wolf tails, wolf axe heads, wolfhead backpack vents, wolf skulls, thr wolf shit was always the primary visual influence, and the viking shit didn't start to even gain much visual representation at all until 4-6th edition

You live in a world of pure fanfiction headcanon you've made up about them

I certainly wouldn't mind it. I think it could look.
I kinda want to see them make these types of photos with the newer models like intercessors in middle of a battle. That'd be pretty cool to see.
>>
>>97210304
>they were first and foremost
Just because something is first and foremost, doesn't mean it's good or looks good.
>>
>>97210311
That moron is calling the wolf parts a betrayal of their aesthetic, when the wolf part is and always has been their whole aesthetic

Weather it's good or not is personal preference but it is who they are

Ive never met a Space Wolves player who didn’t love the Wolf aesthetic.

>I'm describing my real world, lived experience
And your anecdotal lived experience isn't indicative of the hobby as a whole. You claiming nobody does it, but then also claiming that you do it, people here do it, and people online do it doesn't really help your argument.

The issue isn't the wolf part, the issue is when GW goes completely full retard and starts making dumb shit like pic related >>97210104
And stupid shit like thunder wolf cavalry or Grimnar's retard santa sleigh or even the modern wulfen we have.

People don't mind pelts and tassets, it sells Space Wolves being bunch of tribal savages. People mind it when GW designers drink from the cup of retard juice and then starts to flanderize the entire faction.

Like for example, imagine if fucking salamanders were bunch of drunkard savages that wear dragon scale cloaks, with dragon head helmets, while using dragon lightning claws, while riding on top of giant drakes into battle while they are being lead by Tu'Shan/He'stan who is retarded floating chariot that's being pulled by 5 wyverns. And as a dark secret the salamanders suffer from a geneseed flaw that turn them into AoS lizardmen.
And EVERY SINGLE unit in the army is then named some dumb shit like "Dragonite Drakesword Guard", "Thunder Drake Cavalry", "The Cursed of Dargon"

Everyone would, rightfully, call and refer to Salamanders completely flanderized retard lizardshit that's only unironically enjoyed by scalies who want to fuck reptiles.

I dont hate the viking stuff, i just can't stand people (in all fairness it's actually just like 1 guy here with a stick up his ass) trying to pretend the wolf themes aren't their main thing. Its happened in several threads over the last few weeks, some asswipe trying to say they never used to be about wolves and that they were just vikings and the wolf shit was tacked on later when the opposite is true

Idk if it's some right wing nutcase who just wants their trve Aryan viking army and sees the wolf furry stuff getting in the way or what the story is, but they keep trying to be completely revisionist about what the army is and has been

If anything space wolves (and most space msrine chapters) have undergone the opposite of flanderization compared to their 2nd and 3rd edition stuff

I've never had a pot dry out after I started doing that, but I've had tonnes of droppers clog from every manufacturer and even had a panzer ace bottles nib split open lengthwise and spray paint all over my wet palette. I don't think the gw flip top is perfect, but I do believe fliptop is the choice to limit the amount of annoying problems. Coat d'arms is my current favorite. The old gw hexpots were pretty good, but I might just be attributing some of that to nostalgia, or the tactile feedback of them clicking closed making it seem like they're tighter than they are. I also don't really remember how well they kept paints from drying out cause I only used them as a kid

Even TTC if you want nearly 1:1 options to citadel

Question, do yall think that gw actually may be going back into a semi-old40k aesthetic direction? Specifically with marines, terminators are close to being 1:1, sternguard too have somewhat of what i would call an old aesthetic, and lastly rumors of new tactical squad with old armor marks in 11e.
Also, should I or should I not make a kroot army?

I have year old Citadel paints which are still perfectly fine. They picture is lying or it was a bad batch which happens to everyone. I had that problem with AK paints.
>>
>>97210533
Their actual paints are fine for the most part barring their yellows and whites. Every range has a couple bad colors though, so that's whatever. Their paint pots are indefensible though, and they could have the best paints in the world and it still wouldn't matter because their pots are dogshit.

Not true. Averland Sunset is good and their Contrast Yellows like Imperial Fist are FANTASTIC. White Scar is shit and Corax is just fine but Celestra Grey is great.
>>
>>97210751
I wouldn’t be surprised if they refreshed the Tactical Squad, the Rhino too. Even if James succeeds in turning Warhammer into a multimedia franchise, they will ironically be even more bound by the iconic elements of the Space Marines to sell to people. I probably won’t complain though, armor autism is a big appeal of Space Marines for me.

Averland is literally the only good yellow they make though. I don't use speedpaints so I'll take your word for these.

Imperial Fist is Contrast with full coverage like Magmadroth Flame (orange) (or whats it called). It's basically a normal paint but thin. One coat over white and you have full coverage. See Darcy Bono painting yellow or Tabletop Tactics painting orange.

blizzard copied so much shit from 40k for starcraft its suprising GW didnt sue their ass

Same thing is said about Event Horizon. I wonder if it's all true.
>>
>>97210894
>>97210892
Also worth mentioning that several artists from gw went on to work at blizzard in lead roles like Mark gibbons who did a stint as art director for world of warcraft in the 00s (he just did a long interview about it on juggz i think)
>>
>>97210902
hard doubt for event horizon
>>
>>97210910
Alarak (or at least the Tal'darim) was probably written by Andy Chambers as well, who wrote the 5th edition Dark Eldar codex and the Path of the Dark Eldar Trilogy before leaving GW. He was the lead writer on StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty.
>>
>>97210892
they probably diddnt sue because in the 90s GW made a decision not to venture into video games whole hog when it pulled out of the deal with blizzard, and since GW was just doing miniatures and blizzard wasnt doing miniatures and just doing video games, they werent really in direct competition at the time, so they may have weighed that it just wasnt worth the lengthy and expensive legal fight.

also the case that back in the 90s, the company was a lot smaller, and just more of a tight knit business of games designers, at that point the artists were still running the show and it wasnt the giant faceless corporate shoggoth it became in the 00s. and by the time the suits did take over GW, blizzard was too big to sue and would have put up such an expensive legal defense that it also wouldnt have been a sure thing for them to win.

GW also didnt have much of a corporate presence in the US at the time, so it would have been an entirely UK based company VS an entirely US based company, where would the legal dispute take place? in which countries courts and who's copyright law would take priority? the whole thing would have been a legal nightmare compared to nowadays where every corporation is pretty much global and international copyright law in the west is a lot more concrete

thats all obviously conjecture on my part but if i had to guess i think thats probably got a lot to do with it

the director did mention 40k as an influence, but i dont know if there was ever actually a licensing deal that fell through

What the fuck space marines and Tau were battle brothers? What changed?
>>
>>97211320
Tau just really wanted to be friends with people and GW let them friendmaxx. Honestly I think the idea is fine, but you can't let them have a full 1000-point even split between the two allies in a 2000 point game. At best it should have been that it was 1750 points one army and 250 points the other army.
>>
>>
>>97211255
I get that but I want my dudes to be actual noble bright good boys. So its true equality and not whatever mind control stuff the current lore is up to for Tau
>>
>>97211326
Honestly they should expand on allied rules as im sure there's a few models people want from other ranges. Heavily limited the point cost of another army you can take like you suggest would be a good idea
>>
Is there any other brand that has a paint identical or very close to the iconic 3e tau ochre color
>>
>>97211335
It's not entirely within the realm of possibility that an Eldar wouldn't act snooty or even start viewing other races favorably. The Rogue Trader CRPG had that one Eldar who was a lover of a Rogue Trader, there was Uthan the Perverse, there was that extremely old half-Eldar dude. Ultimately they're your dudes so if you wanna have like one or two throwaway guys, sure go for it. Just know that GW in general leans really hard in the other direction from what your dudes' lore is going for.

Nah, Tal'darim are a warrior death cult focused around empowering leaders by sacrificing themselves. Their hierarchy is extremely rigid and political maneuvering requires direct challenges with backing. Murdering the person above you just gets you executed.
Essentially imagine if Yvraine was actually presented as powerful and respected and was actually empowered by Eldar deaths.
>>
>>97211343
I really got to get around to playing rogue trader. Yeah the new tau lore is kinda whatever to me, I enjoyed the Tau as naive people trying to do good unaware they're just a speck that could be easily wiped out by the other factions but existed through pure luck.

I understand there's like a warp entity manifestation of the concept of the greater good now or something? I do find that interesting as a concept but I doubt ill be a fan of however it manifests further in tau lore

I don’t really get what’s the big deal with black space wolves is, the chapter gets candidates from the entire planet of fenris right? It shouldn’t be so out of the question for them to be diverse.
