Cute Eldar boy feet
>TQI spend plenty of time with family and frens and I don't appreciate judgement especially from 40kg of all places.
>>97245824Christmas was good, and I don’t like loud music, so there’s no events I’d care to go to anyway. Here and with my minis it’s nice and quiet.
So like I said, I was thinking about making a lil adepta sororitas group, maybe just a couple squads, one of those mortifeiers, a little church for us to be grouped around. But I don't understand what our fleet situation is. I want to make a couple craft to ferry them around just for RP or whatever. Anyone know what sororitas fly around in?
>>97245824Christmas was over yesterday dumbass the holidays are over
>>97245824I don't like agripinaa because no way the admech would style themselves to be affiliated with the ecclesiarchy, and styges goes way too hard into kitchen sink aliens. The lenses are a great idea, but a goddamn genestealer ridge?? Eldar pauldrons for ??? reasons?
>>97245824>Are you happy to be spending your happy holidays here instead of literally anywhere else?Girlfriend is using her time off and we're going on a week vacation soon. Mostly here just looking at the new models posted and considering a Grey Knights army.
>>97245836Interstellar i'd think they catch a ride from the navy, planetside probably the same vessels that the guard use, or whatever they have on hand.
>>97245824>TQi don't really have anything else to do beside painting. rehab is fun like that
>>97245824>Skittles editionhell yeah
>>97245866Is that ur Mephi?
I've got a box of classic blood claws. What should I do with them? It builds 15 dudes and the obvious answer is just a blood claws proxy but it has tons more bits and maybe someone has a good idea.
>>97245859Yeah I was thinking inquisition (witch hunters?) or navy. If my little church group goes off world, it would likely be still in our local. But I guess maybe we could get called up in some great crusade. Still, I was thinking more like some craft to just take us to hotspots in our local region. I think we just get dropped in by a witch-hunter, but so. I need to see what kind of craft they use.
>>97245866Not gonna pry but I hope it's going well, anon
Got the Iron Halo box for Christmas. What Ultima founding chapter do I paint it as in prep for 11th?
>>97245884Wolfspears
>>97245872nope, that one was a commission, this one is my mephi
>>97245877Took a quick look at the wiki, they seem to use normal navy aircraft, plus thunderhawks.They also have drop cathedrals for planetary invasions, which i thought was funny.
>>97245906Yours looks sweet too fellow Blood Bro
>>97245882a good part of my crippling alcoholism is due to my shitty everyday life. going to rehab is almost a vacation next to it
>>97245876what the fuck were they thinking in having the box cover look so empty and lifeless?
>>97245824Did a lot of work on my """Tau""" army yesterday and today. More is still unassembled and I'm painting generic Carnivores (made out of older models) too.Post models AND their theme this timehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j6xi0WQ4c-o
>>97245920Probably somethign absurd like "we should display the models we're selling"
>>97245906oh shit i posted the unfinished onebest pic i have of it mostly finished is with two other BA
>>97245921Made photo like this too
>>97245926Very Sexy stuff, top tier skillage.
>>97245876They are a great source of bits (keep the banners), I've mixed mine with the standard tactical kit and MKIV to make grey hunters, and printed running legs to make a pack of 10. However it was before the refresh. I don't know if you can use them for anything other than legend units (maybe van vet ?) but I see no problem with you proxying them.
>>97245876I just got 30 of these pre built for peanuts the other day, so cute.
>>97245895Not them (I am not a furry)
I just got that Death Watch board game. So now I have a Chaplain, a Judicar, a Bladeguard Ancient, 3 Bladeguard Veterans and 3 Eradicators. Which comes to 345 points. What should I add to bring that list up to 500 points so I can play a game?Right not I'm leaning towards doing them up as a Dark Angels successor Chapter, so I can get those sweet Deathwing Knight and Inner Circle kits, if that changes things.
>>97245963Wow the Wolf Lords are in the house tonight! Welcome brother! Let us drown ourselves in Fenrisian ale and celebrate the new year together!
>>97245963>>97245978Awoo with me xisters!
>>97245978
>>97245978>>97245990AWOOOO!!! FELLOW PEERS AWOOOOO!!!
>>97245990ok now you got me thinking Space Wolves. Could these guys work as the start of a Space Wolves army, and f so what should I add to get it to 500 points?>>97245975
>>97245993>>97245992Jealousy is unbecoming brother, I'm sure your chapter is equally impressive...pfft!
>>97245978I was gonna go with another army but for some reason Christmas just makes me want to do wolves!I wish I'd gotten the sled
>>97245975>>97245998If you're still on the fence about chapters, 5 intercessors would leave you 75 points for a character
>>97246003>neopagan wannabe viking sodomites>impressive
>>97246006This board gets better day by day
>>97246011We're not coom hounds so we don't think twisted thoughts like you.
>>97246007wouldn't four character in 500 points be a lot of characters?
Awoo!
>>97246021It would, but 155 points is an awkward point value fill out. You could just buy a box of intercessors, run all ten and have a 505 point list and see if it's cool with whoever you're playing against
>>97245978Don't reply to me thanks
>tfw the new Huron is so shit looking I'm far more excited about what his command squad will look likeMaybe i can proxy them as other heroes or something
>>97246019to be honest, I was kinda thinking twisted thoughts
>>97246052What is transpiring in this picture?
>>97246052Metal... Gear?
>>97246076WHAT
>>97246064It's just a robot pilot and her handler.But my OC Space Wolf successors will be named The ______ Hounds or The Hounds of _____ I can tell you that.
>>97246080MY HAND
>>97246095Hounds of Morkai (tm)
>>97246110That was a unit already!
>>97245884/yourdudes/
>>97246117I STOLE it, no one will ever KNOW!
>>97246124I was thinking The Penitent Hounds, but that's a bit of a mouthful
>>97246095The Hung Hounds. They must survive 88 trials before being considered brothers. It's called taking the knot.
>>97246136I'm not doing the 88 thing obviously, But I did think about an allied Inquisitor who it's implied has some kind of psychic control over them.But that's getting into the weeds before I've even got 500 points built and painted
>>97246132The Chained Hounds (or something relating to chains)
How do all your wolf fans feel about successor chapters?
>>97246136HUHUHUHUHUHUHUHUHUHUHUHI don't get it
>>97246160Should have said 14 trials, that clear it up for you buddy?
Lads if you were going to convert an Ork wearing Space Marine armor would you just use the chest, shoulder pads, boots-knee guards of the space marine and have the rest ork skin/pants or would you just have them with maybe a shoulder pad or half a helmet?Which space marine pattern would you use? Tacticus or Terminator or mayhe both?
>>97246148ooh that's good
>>97246046It's a pretty big disappointment, I think he'll look slightly better with a helmet. IDK why they phone in the chaos sculpts so often.
>>97246153All Wolves go to heaven
Welcome to Primarios Kart!!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qxn3g9qbF3Q
>>97246175Gell yeah, I've still got it B)
>>97246175What about the Jagged Hounds and you can make their teeth look crazy or something.
Oh shit, the Dawn of War box plus a Venerable Dreadnought is 475 points! I can use up the rest to put an enhancement on a character, right? How's that for a starting 500pt army to pay some learning games with?
>>97246189The Jagged Hounds sounds like they're a White Scars successor that misheard the name of their Primarch.
>>97246191I think you're onto something here brother.
>>97246179And to think this piece of shit is supposed to replace the attack bike. Jesus fuck
>>97246194Wow didn't even think of that comparison, yea nvm
>>97246191People don't really play 500pts unless you've got a friend who's learning with you.
>>97246194>>97246197Grorrious primarchu, Jaggedu Thaio Khano
So now that the dust has settled who is the gayest space marine chapter?
Solution: Space wolves' successor chapter is called Galactic Mutts.
>>97246194Glacial HoundsShiver Hounds Black Ice Hounds Frostfire HoundsTimber Hounds
>>97246213world bearers
>>97246003Its not jealousy brother! Its true admiration! AWOOO!!! my fellow peers!
>>97246194Boreal houndsHoarfrost hounds
>>97246221Ice Ice Puppy
>>97246228Not a chapter retard.
Space wolves successor called the Shields of Fenris. They are notable for acting as bulwarks for astra militarum companies during pushes into enemy territory.
Pisswolf Peers
>>97246242They're still the gayest marines
>>97246213All those ones that exist just to either convert to chaos or get dunked by literally anyone but never get a paint job so you can't add them to the bases of FUCKING ANYTHING so you stick with tried and true Ultramarines because lets face it, they were probably of the Ultramarines geneseed
>>97245824Ciapahas Cain suddenly makes a lot more sense when you realise that on the eastern fringes of course he's going to deal with Tech-Priests from Metalica in their white far more often then Red Martian cogboys.
>>97246236Not bad actually
>>97246228>world bearersImperial fist successor with the motto "We bear the weight of a hundred worlds".
>>97246245Nah, the gayest marines is now whatever you play.
>>97246254Good thing i don't play Astardes
>>97246244You're a degenerate and your humor is ignorant, stale and juvenile.
>>97246221Chained Hounds is the favorite now, my original idea was Penitent Hounds, that's the kind of vibe I want. These guys have something to apologize for, or there's something wrong with them.Scourged HoundsUnforgiven HoundsHounds of PenanceHounds of the Lash
The DooDoo Dogs
Saw this kino sovl and now I gotta have them. Guess they can be a late christmas gift to myself
The Ice Fang Dog Hounds of Fenris
The fridgeless fenrisians

>>97246315You're so desperate for attention lmaooooo, I spit in your eye!
>>97246316Contrarian as fuck
>>97246316Why do they all have the same first name?
>>97246273ok this one is pretty funny
>>97246283My man I said my Space Wolves successors are inspired by Warhound. Trying to disparage them is pointless. I am operating on a level you could never understand.
>>97246299Unfortunately that's just canon that ever none space marine faction gets raped
>>97246321It just happens to be a very common name across the galaxy.
>>97246333Why not just call them War Hounds or Hounds of War.Not like everyone in current lore knows that the World Eaters were called War Hounds before Angron, but it's also Cawl would totally make a Primaris Chapter of Space Wolves with World Eater geneseed or some chimeric combination of the too.
I painted a lil driver.
>>97246388trim your nails bro
Which army is the most entertaining to paint? I have never painted a model before and would like to give it a try, and if I enjoy it, I would like to build an army. I think lot of different models and poses would be nice, so ideally nothing to monotone and uniform. Strength of army isn't important, but I would like the army to be a bit cute and creepy.
>>97246399Marines, they're the perfect blank slates to exercise your painting on
>>97246399>cute and creepyGSC or admech but both are time consuming to paint
>>97246379How did John Wilkes Booth get to become president?
>>97246388Same energy
>>97246406You keep what you kill
>>97246399>cute and creepyNids, death guard>nothing to uniform, monotoneHarlequins, CWE in general, death guard
>>97246399Avoid Marines imo, they are samey even with their 4 types of armor (light Phobos, medium Tacticus, heavy Gravis, Elite Terminator)Auxiliary heavy Tau sound logical, Tau themselves are similarly easy to Marines to paint, can vary a lot from their foot soldiers to mechs and vehicles and "cute and creepy" bit Kroot and Vespids can both do
>>97246399Orks definitely aren’t uniform, and give you a variety of themes to paint (scrap, tactical, pelt barbarians, heavy armor), but cute is definitely subjective because they’re cute in an english bulldog kind of way
>>97246399The factions that the women I know IRL like (not Warhammer players) are KSons/Sisters for one, and Drukhari/Seraphon for the other.
>>97246399Probably a faction with the most little guys in it. Chaos has the Deathguard and Nurglings (Chaos Sorceror’s have familiars too) The Canoptek aspect of Necrons have the scarabs. Tyranids and GSC have little guys too, though the Genestealers are a bit more fun with it. Cherubs and Servo-Skulls are too few in the Imperium to be their little guys stand ins.
>>97246213I'm an unironic fag and I play dark angels but blood angels are also pretty good, I just like blond haired himbos
>>97246399The Dark Eldar range always does it for me. A big variety of styles and subjects. It was more fun when they still had weird Xenos like the Court of the Archon and Beastpack though. Still get winged warriors, armored thugs, gladiator women, flesh abominations, boats with sails, shadow demons, and wicked skull headed warriors.
>>97246399Women like nids. Probably because of the ovipositor thing
>>97246399So everyone has different things that the prefer to paint so everyone is going to have a different answer. Some people like lots of open space and enjoy spending their time filling that space with painted gradients, or freehand, or weathering or whatever. Other people like having tonnes of little details to pick out. Some people really enjoy painting metallics, other people really enjoy painting skin or fabric. It takes a few models to really find the style of miniatures you find fun, so I think it's a good idea to try as many different things as possible. Nids, marines and necrons are both really good armies for beginners and fairly different from one another. Necrons gives you lots of metals, nids gives you lots of organic stuff, and marines give you lots of space with a single colour. You can make any army creepy, but cute is pretty subjective. A good way to try a couple things is go into your local gw and sign up for the free paint lesson for the free demo marine, and pickup whatever the free model of the month is
>>97246406He was a famous actor and other stuff, so he wasn't some nobody. With no Lincoln in office, Booth couldn't have assassinated him, though Frémont's term was as long as Lincoln's, so he must have been assassinated or stepped down for some other reason. Funny enough, Kennedy was not shot and served till 1969.
>>97246399>a bit cute and creepy.embrace the little lords, brother
I do not understand why these third party bits makers will make a batch of heads with identical faces. What's even the point of that?
>>97246451If bad dragon didn't charge an arm and a leg for them I wonder whether nids would be as popular. If people could get their fix of alien eggs elsewhere you might see less girls passively interested in it
My dog died today. She was my only family. I was going to paint my Dark Eldar over Christmas but now I feel like throwing them all away because nothing matters anymore.
>>97246171Centurion parts if you're going for a meganob. Tacticus pauldrons, greaves and half a helmet if you're doing an ard boy.Also good luck, I don't imagine that's an easy kitbash.
>>97246479Ez money.
>>97246464>He was a famous actor and other stuff, so he wasn't some nobody.that's stupid. Actors were not respected professionals in the 1800s.
>>97246479the point is to shit out as much files as possible in the shortest amount of time then sell each to like 10 people
>>97246483F for the homie. Buy a clawed fiend and paint it like him
>>97246487>>97246493ThisLaziness is a silent slow killer
>>97246488You're a retard lmaoRich people would keep actors on retainer as bragging rights like they would with painters
>>97246464>He was a famous actorI keep forgetting about that. Say what you want about John Wilkes Booth, but all these modern celebrities are constantly voicing their wishes for Trump to get killed, but John Booth actually got shit done and enacted the change he wanted to see in the world.
>>97246504Rich people would pay a lot of money for very fast horses, do you think that means they would vote for a horse for president, anon? Do you think if Lincoln never became president there would have been a horse president instead, anon?
>>97246450Whose army is that? Yours? are there more pics?
>>97246516Oh you actually thought that list of presidents was real? Lmao
>>97246516eh, a horse won the consulship in ancient rome, so anything is possible.
>>97246529HE WAS A CONSUL OF ROME
>>97246450i am collecting DE now and i cant get over how bad the Wyches kit is. Their body proportions are soo weired, specially compared with Lelith or the Succubus model.
>>97246525GMM studiohttps://gmmstudios.blogspot.com/2019/03/scorpion-gang-dark-eldar-army.html?m=1My DE are not painted anywhere near this nicely
I kind of feel jealous of people who write deep lore or fanfics for their dudes, I have a basic backstory and idea for mine in my head but I constantly feel like I can't write anything more complex for them because I might get bullied on the internet for taking it too seriously, my autism holds me back
>>97246562That's because your ideas are bad, anon>t. the voice you talk to
>>97246495Thank you anon. Means a lot.
>>97246483RIP to a real one
>>97246574Thank you.

I'm still mad about the Macharius being discontinued. The Dorn is a shitty, unnecessary, and poor replacement.
>>97246483Get another dog.Theres plenty out there they need homes.
>>97245824So I got an Emperors children combat patrol box as a gift, Is that army OP?
Speaking of animals, Felinds when?
>>97246641>only person who owns emperors children models >only has them because it was a giftgrim.
>>97246483Get a new dog and name it your old dog's name the second
>>97246641They're sort of middle of the pack right now, not great not terribleYou shouldn't be concerned with performance but rather if you like the aesthetics of the army
>>97246649No niche that makes them different from the average grunt, so there’s no separate box set for them like ogryns or ratlings.Lorewise, it’s bad optics for the wider imperium, and they stand out too much, so they can’t be a token model.Too many details that makes them different from regular humans, so an upgrade sprue would require too many bits to be justifiable. You’ll be lucky to get an appearance in a black library book or video game.
>>97246118What colour of your dudes?
>>97246641>forget to buy a christmas present for a friend>got through my pile of shame>eh, he is a bit zesty anywayGet the battleforce, Blissbound Warband, if it's still available.

>>97246399Emperor's Children are fun and creepy
>>97246744welp.at least I did want to run them melee heavy. now i just need to see my way to an orange and teal scheme that works for me
>>97246765what is hilarious to me is that the terrain in the background hasn't changed at all to this day
>>97246820Cadia may have fallen, the primarchs are returning. But GW terrain stands.
>>97246820You can do a more reddish orange with turquoise-leaning teal and it would probably work.
>>97246820They’ve been fighting there for a while, okay? Just two more weeks and they’ll break the stalemate and progress on over to the next block.

>>97246852this is somehow even worse than the original o&t
>>97246852God bless the few madmen who choose to use a quartered scheme for their army.
>>97246860wait, are people are only posting about the orange and teal marines to make fun of it? those gits look really nice, and I’m not sure if I feel comfortable being an accomplice to orange and teal marine slander.
>>97246852This is so ass dude omg
>>97246600>>97246605>>97246613>>97246627>>97246686Thank you anons. You are very kind. I can't a new dog because due to my health I will most likely not live long and as I am alone, nothing good would happen to it. In any case it's not the same. My dog helped me survive my mother's death not too long ago. With her passing a piece of me died as well. I don't even know if it's worth starting on my models. Maybe I should just give everything away and check out. That is the most appealing option right now.
>>97246860>>97246871Go back to your discord
>>97246852Watermelon marines
>>97246483Take comfort in that you have cared well for your dog. Don't throw your 40k models away. She would want the best for you if those models make you happy.It is perfectly normal to feel this way.
>>97246870It's a shitty, overused meme-turned-shitpost that was relentlessly pushed by one salty faggot because o&t fag ignored his advice. The scheme itself wasn't even that bad.
>>97246829I think I'm going to add black. So the armor will be black and orange, and the teal will be a spot color for eyes and the like. That could get across a sort of prisoner/bondage vibe that would work perfectly for a Death Company heavy army. Especially if I include chain iconography.I wonder if anybody does gagged heads for Space Marines?
>>97246883Thank you anon. I am seriously considering giving everything away. Maybe it would make someone else happy. I did hoard a decent backlog.
>>97246900>I wonder if anybody does gagged heads for Space Marines?check out the blood angel range. Or EC.
>>97246900>average sight in a servitor processing facility.
>>97246889The mentally ill insistence this general has to pin all of one type of post on a single person is baffling
>>97246932Lemartes' helmet is absolutely perfect, and I'm tempted to try to recast it to use for all Chaplains. But that's the only option I saw in the BA range. The EC heads are all too fucked up. Hopefully some third party designer has stepped up to the plate
>>97247033Okay honestly? Take a random 3rd party resin print file you like, use simple modelling software to add a single sphere and one or two curved cylinders to the head. It will take you maybe 30 minutes to learn how with youtube videos.
>>97246814primary teal, secondary orange, blood angel specialist troops can incorporate classic colors partially

>>97247130ehh, I feel like I can get away with a little bit of greenstuff for a cloth over the mouth gag. That'll get the idea across, and I won't need to do computer stuff
