>>97285934>
>>97285934>Sharty on the 'logffs I was gonna bake a thread and fix that
>>97285961>he wasn't posting on the Party's /aosg/ when 4cuck was down last April
>>97286004Why would anybody go to that wannabe kiwifarms
>tqId like to finish 2k points of Gitz but only have around 500 done so farId also like to learn how to consistently take good pictures of my minis, whenever I follow the guides that say bring brightness all the way down the minis look too blue and also makes it look like I'm trying to compensate for poor paint jobs with camera editing and tricks
>>97286015There are a couple mini photography guides in /wip/s mega, you could check these out. I made this one a while back, maybe it will be of some use.
>>97285934>TQ I for see a Shrine Luminor and endless spells in my near future but beyond that I’ll probably wait for the battletome before making more unit purchases.>>97286015Dude, same. I’ve watched and read, tried to replicate so many guides and can’t get near the quality of pictures people get and I feel I end up over-editing my pictures. My best pictures always turn out coming from the painting desk while my minis aren’t complete.
>>97286044>>97286043I mean, sometimes I do what the guide says and I get good pictures, sometimes I get this underwater filter. I think my desk lights are a cold blue white which then gets amplified when the exposure goes down like the guides say>>97286023You can, but you make like five bucks an hour, and there's only so many dog water reviews before people become wary of a 3 star eBay rating.
>>97286075Can someone help me understand what makes the two pictures look so different? Is it just the background?
>>97286075I’ll get about 75% of a decent picture but never as clean a background or as in focus as >>97286043. Even while following that specific guide. I’m sure it’s a PEBKAC error, but I cannot figure out the source.
>>97285934>didn't even link to the right threadFfs man
Any of you fine anons got a pdf scan of the Spitewood rulebook? Gib plz. Can suck toes in return.
>>97285934Gonna try to finish my nurgle army. Need to get some of the new guys too. Gotta move my "rotswords" over to 32s now too lol
>>97286148I like the yellow and black patterns on the cloth, I feel like a little visual motif like that can tie an army together and then you can do whatever you want on each individual mini
man, i need my dose of neave. i wish i could see the last anime episode.
>>97286165The army is supposed to have 4 different plague houses, leprosy (the yellow and black flag), black death (pale white skin, pure jet black cloth), red death (with white cloth to show blood seeping through) and smallpox (with black armor and red cloth styled after a famous Hernan Cortes painting), but if they end up looking too disjointed and disparate as an army once it's all done I'll probably just do them all in the lepers scheme
>>97286121You could have at least corrected him by posting the correct link
>>97286087It is likely the background. I found thr trick for white backgrounds is cranking your whites up as much as possible by raising the exposure until it starts to look hazy, and then step it back until colours are clear. Messing with temperature and tint is best done in post imo. I use photoshop express a lot, and they've got a dehaze option that let's you crank the exposure up but knock out any haze you get in doing so. All I did you to your pic was crank exposure, knock your whites up a bit, took the temperature a little cooler, and then dehazed it
>>97286087>>97286201>>9728614810 trillion hours in mspaint, nurgles blessings anons
>>97286269Good shit, anon. Thanks.
>>97286269Heh
>>97286269Excellent work.
>>97286148Recipe for that skintone? I love that sickly greenWhat're you proxying as rotswords?
>>97286269clean
>>97286075>>97286117It seems like a dumb and obvious advice but always clean your camera lens before taking pictures. It's especially important for phones since you carry them around a lot.
Which circle is the cool one?
>>97286483belakor's
>>97286429It's various mixed ratios of grey (I'm using gw eshin grey but any grey would work) and proacryls yellow ochre, and then sometimes a bit of offwhite to lighten it up if needed
>>97286483More like morongard
>>97286531>>97286429Oh yeah and for rotswords I'm just gonna move my blightkings over to 32s, though I'll probably still get a couple boxes of the new ones too
Man, AoS is fucking struggling in my area, the local spring 2025 league had 24 players, fall 2025 had 16 and it looks like spring 2026 will have under 10.Everything's been going downhill since the great squattening.
>>97286555The new rotswords look so fucking good man they got me tempted to start nurgle, which I've never given a fuck about before. Blightkings and sloven knights look great too.Honestly I'm lucky they didn't go with a battleforce because GW woulda got my ass.
>>97286626>battleforceMeant army set, but potato potato. I'm curious to see these guys painted up by someone of more average skill though.
>>97286626now that you mention it, it is weird, maybe they didn't do one because warhammer quest is kinda like that already? I can't imagine they've decided to not do them anymore as a general rule.
>>972865613rd edition killed it at mine but it's picked up with Spearhead. Faction packs lacking fluff killed the edition for newbies imo.
>>97286643It's just contrast over metallics so I think it's indicative of an achievable tabletop standard
>>97286561The new RoR stuff in the ptg book is a nice start but I think that the removal of allies as well as the complicating of the list building has made aos less interesting to get into. A lot of the aos1ed chads had interest in grand alliance stuff, along with aos2eds "harbingers" for each grand alliance had people including unit from other factions in their armies. Spearhead is doing very well, but I think that's largely due to the ease of starting as well as the game being just plain good.
Guys I'm in a jam.Want to start Spearhead and I'm torn between>Bloodcrave Hunt (Can get the old box from eBay)and >Deathrattle Tomb HostAnd also wondering about how each of these play. Which would you choose and why?
So anons what do you expect for the january content?My bet will be more chaos (Probs tzeentch or khorne) since nurgle got a slice of that pie alreadyDo hope for Kruleboy, hobgrot or ironjawz content.... Maybe eshin too
>>97286667>rust streaking>highlightsIt's clearly more than that, but I do agree it's likely not an insane recipe, but it seems like gw is slowing down on tutorials so we will probably never know
>>97286689Rumor from Whitefang back me up says OBR, LRL, and Tzeentch teases. So I assume they’re gonna be the pity hero recipients.
He has two faces. One where he's happy and one where he just sucked a lemon. Don't ask me why, he just does.
>>97286736damn it's insane how shitty this paint job looks up close.
>>97286725we already know boners are getting a few kits, not just a pity heroand while lumineth and tzeentch are assured to get pity heroes, at least tzeentch has the scenery to look forward to, if they nail the sliver tower it might be the best model of their range
Some new art there. Might be a new Vincenzo Pratticò piece, I think.
>>97286773So they're just not printing ability text now?
>>97286773>new art of Blightkings they refreshed wat
>>97286736lazy sprue filler, I guess, could have given him a neat plague doctor mask or a more mutated look as an alternative, this feels pointlessunless removing nurgle being silly and jovial was hammered into the sculptors at multiple levels of the whole wave's design processes
>>97286787
>>97286773nah, it's got the good blightkings, it's older
>>97286015
remember what they took from you
>>97286794What's the point of this marketing image?for the buyer to understand the size of the book compared to a woman's hands?
>>97286835it's to remind you that warhammer is for everyone :)
>>97286821You make me mad and sad. Because CoS completely most their soul after this. Demigryphons as mounts, mixed dwarf, human and elf forces... now its just discount whfb empire, but plays like shitty imperial guard.
>>97286821thank god they removed that cancer
>>97286898>now its just discount whfb empireUmmm it's actually whfb empire for modern audiences
>>97286821I won't forget.>remove beastmen because we don't want AOS to just be TOW guise>rework COS to just be Empire
>>97286898>now its just discount whfb empireand before that it was the literal whfb empire models
>>97286914COS are not empire. Empire is a racist white supremacist depiction of a fantasy race. Not a single black and no women either. COS are the Empire but done without any of the inherent racism/misogyny found in WHFB empire.
>>97286898Good, elves get their own faction, dwarves have gotten theirs. Humans should as well, dont like it fuck off back to 1st edition
>>97286916AND Dwarfs AND High Elves AND Dark Elves
>>97287021You mean even more old world models? do you even know that you can play, right now, an empire army with allied dwarfs and elves in the old world, right?You're crying for a unique take on humans that was never unique, or begging for elves or dwarf models in human uniforms that literally no elf or dwarf fan would ever want.What you actually want is for aos to unfuck itself and have an actual system of allies that isn't the retarded regiments of renown so you can field COS humans alongside the likes of lumineth, kharadrons and stormcasts.That doesn't happen by keeping cities looking like a garbage bin of old models, nor it happens by expecting all the ingredients of the aos melting pot to be in the cos book.
>4" move and 1 control so not gonna claim or contest objectives in the early game>5+/6++ and 3 health/model so too squishy to tank against anything>4/3+/3+/1/1 so a mediocre damage dealer at best>ability so limited as to be unusable in most games and not even great when it works>130 points for 15 health points on 5 models is neither cheap nor expensive but they still will never make their cost backI don't get it. What is this unit supposed to be good for? The models look sick and fun to paint, but what are they even supposed to do in the game?
>>97286645I assume because of darkwater yeah, probably didn't want two big nurgle boxes competing against each other.
>>97287092>I don't get it. What is this unit supposed to be good for?convincing you to buy other units after getting one box of them for the looks and shelving your already existing units of blightkings.
>>97287092Their Scourge of Ghyran warscroll will redeem them.
>>97287128>Mein Furher, every faction…has received their Scourge of Ghyran updates.
>>97287128My grandfather... scourge of ghyran...
>>97287092They're supposed to sit on your shelf until next edition so all the people with 1000pts of blightkings already are forced to buy new units instead of playing with their existing collections
