Let Chaos idols take this thread!
Post uhhhh conversions i guess
KINDKOLOSSALKUSTODESKNOCKERS
>>97456542>TQPainting is the devil.I like painting Order of our Martyred lady but I feel like when I get to the weapons casing the metal colour just doesn't look right to me. Anyone got other suggestions for colours for weapon cases outside of silver metal?
>>97456563fuck me forgot the image again
>>97456561I prefer>KUNTY>KOLOSSAL>KUSTODES>KNOCKERS
>capturing an objective by reviving dead models on objectives at the start of the command phase.I like the GSC's Cult Icon so much
>>97456563I would usually say red weapons but OML are red already. Black cases is probably your best bet.Make sure you buy high sell low today
I'm once again asking for examples of Phobos conversions.I hate them, but feel compelled to collect them
>>97456559How are those converted
>>97456542>Thread Question(s):>What is your best/favorite miniature you've painted?Luv me libby>>97456568Black is a classic. You're definitely in a tough spot where you've got tonnes of red and silver already. Maybe yellow with hotrod flames like old school bangels would work
>>97456583I meant to say kitbashed, im slightly high on cough mix
>>97456586How are they kitbashed
>>97456583Nta but the commissar has a tube in his belly, the middle guys pistol is a different colour plastic than the rest of him and the ogryn has a giant metal chainsaw
>>97456573kvnty gang. hell yea.
>>97456576What don't you like about them? Helps to know what you're after so you don't get bombarded with suggestions that all have the aspects you hate
>>97456591>ywn be triangle choked by enormous 60 inch sororitas thighs while she makes you repeat hymns until you can recall them from memoryit's not fair bros
>>97456559A lot of my minis are conversions/kitbashes.Some are imperceptible changes, some are a bit more outlandish and out there.
>>97456605I like the arm cape in concept but it makes him look like he's missing an arm from a lot of the angles you've shared
>>97456608 Its to hide the fact his arm is badly glued and is missing the fins due to the recast being of a very bad quality. The ceramic/malachite paintjob was to hide the horrendous mistakes in the recast
>>97456589The techy bits and the chainsaw arm mostly.The first part of my vashtorr forces
>>97456620Drill more convert less
>>97456625No.
>>97456617Oh wow that is a really rough cast. It's definitely not super noticeable with the cape but that's really rough luck.
>>97456628
>>97456630Post kitbashes not foreign-speak
hello friends i painted a space man today
>>97456620Any chance you could post a clear section of the wood on your hobby table, it looks really nicely weathered. Doesn't matter what part as long as it messy looking. I love seeing peoples workbenches for all sorts of hobbies, it's neat seeing the little stories they tell
>>97456632
>>97456638Do not do this. Wood grain analysts in this thread will learn everything about you from your doors and tables.
>>97456620>>97456628Based
>>97456636>you owe me another 10 second land raider
>>97456636You have a very strange style
>>97456636Nice, great looking Crimson Fist.
>>97456593GW tried to make light power armor and so make it slimmer. But ended up with what looks like short pants which I don't like.Boots look like sandals or sneakers depending on how you paint them and those look off too, especially combined with short pantsExposed belly is annoyingMy idea was to use leftover firstborn legs since they are thin and replace Phobos legs below the knees with those. Alternatively use milliput-greenstuff mix/brown stuff to smooth out legs while still keeping them thinner than basic Tacticus configurationSqueeze in plasticard into the bellyAnd obviously make headswaps, for Reiver heads in particularProbably will make use of more gothic/knightly bits like those jousting shields other primaris have, banners etcI felt tempted to make use out of greenstuff chainmail for them too maybe, I have that handy template-form thing to make it easily. Would make sense for basic Marines to wear Plate Armor essentially, while their Light Infantry wears chainmail
But really what's with all the drilllets as of late? An army painter drill with drill bits is just a few bucks.And they get really uppity about it too. I'm sorry but your models objectively look like shit without this tiny bit of effort.
>>97456636I hope you're not implying that's anywhere near finished.
>>97456636You did a good job but the poor marine is absolutely devoid of sauce. Give him some battle damage, or a little extra color somewhere or something, man.
>>97456640I think he meant post your conversion
>>97456650Nigga wonky holes look way worse than a painted hole
>archivefag
>>97456650>I'm sorry but your models objectively look like shitI'd say the same if you had any
>>97456663So don't make wonky holes, pussy
>>97456661what mental illness causes this behavior i wonder
>>97456663Start with a pilot hole made with your hobby knife.
>>97456638I don't have that hobby mat anymore, I'm sorry.It was used for everything hobby related by me and my wife for a while and then we got a bigger table and new mat each>>97456650I got a cheap wowstick knockoff and it's fantastic for drilling barrels. Highly recommend one
Is the Enforcer Battlesuit commander any good? What weapons/roles do you even give it? Just looks like you are spending points to gimp your unit with 8" movement.
>>97456636other anon said it's a strange style I'd say strange in a good way. As in you've figured out how to do things your way and you're happy with it. I like it a lot anon it's giving me a lot of nostalgia for even 2nd edition with the poppy saturated colors but primarily -for when I joined- with the transition into the grimdark style when it tried to ground the crazy colours and make it more realistic in 4th edition. It makes me happy. You could paint your base rims bright green and it'd fit. I think that's how I like space marines, gaudy, flashy coloured, medieval liveried, war machines beaten to shit.I see your stuff on wip and shouldve taken the time to look at em before
>>97456617Damn you weren't kidding
>>97456636How did he get the white spray on him
Is it possible to proxy an all saturine army into 40k. Idc if it’s chaos or loyalist.
>>97456688Aren't they enormous? How do they compare next to like centurions or something? Or are they almost Old dreadnought sized?
>>97456669Lack of models but the need to feel included so they cling to images of other people's models. It is what it is>>97456672Damn, one day I'll be able to steal pictures of everyone's worktops and take them to staples to get blown up on posters and open a modern art gallery. Careful with those electric rotary tools, we had two seperate people at the lgs drill through their fingers, and one went all the way through
>Sisters in terminator armor
>>97456691I think they’re boxnaught sided ye.
>>97456693Yeah i already put it through my hand when it slipped
>>97456691Tectical dreadnought armour living up to the name, yeah
>>97456696There was one from one of the comics but she's an inquisitor not a sister.
>>97456542>TQThis guy is probably my objectively best painted 40k mini but my favorite would be Lord of Change, I just love the sculpt.
>>97456704
>>97456705The glow on this guy is nuts, but I'm kinda with you on your LOC.
>>97456696>i want sisters to be more like marinesAt that point just make female marines instead of changing sororitas into space marines-lite.
>>97456705OSL is so disgusting to look at but other than that nice job.
>>97456691>>97456697>>97456688minicompare.info/jesus fuck models are getting big now, saturnine dreadnought is fucking huge
>>97456718I wonder if it's some contest between GW/FW>our marines are bigger>no OUR marines are bigger!>NUH UH
Couple of questions:>Do you use Superglue or Tamiya for glueing models feet to bases? Or does it matter?>For giving my minis weapons, does it really matter what I give them? Should I aim for just rule of cool and do what I want or read some guide?
>>97456718At some point they are gonna have to drop the points or the battle sizes for the table are going to have to get bigger>5-6 years when the next primaris refresh comes along they will double the size of them
>>97456718Those are way bigger than I thought. I kinda wanted them before but I'm kinda second guessing them now
>>97456735>Do you use Superglue or Tamiya for glueing models feet to bases? Or does it matter?I use superglue in case I need to reach the bottom of the mini or the basing requires it or whatever other reason. I wouldn't ever use plastic glue for it because they're a nightmare to get off.
>>97456718I can't help but hear nelson's haha laugh coming from that termie pointing at the gk
>>97456735If I'm gluing unpainted models to unpainted untextured bases then I use plastic glue, otherwise it's always superglue and a pin. I think you should probably take a look at the datasheet for your units before building them so you at least get an idea of how many special weapons and stuff everyone gets, but realistically unless you're playing in tournaments, nobody will care if you just built your guys via rule of cool
>>97456718>marines become truescale and there's finally room for their bodies in their armor after years of mockery over bad proportions>saturnine say fuck all thatI guess they're just nugget marines who weren't quite ready for dreadnoughts.
>>97456649Well yeah, if you paint them badly of course they'll fucking look bad. Spaz.
>>97456661>archivefag
>>97456696They already have Nundams, isn't that enough?
please, not the marine height bullshit again. i can tolerate so much autism but that is too much
>>97456718Saturnine looks so fucking ass idk why they decided on that design
>>97456765>tertiary doesn't recognize impcat minispottery
>>97456776Saturine is based and the best thing to come out of space marines since its inception.
>>97456681thank you anoni wanted something bright but also easy to paint. i will throw a few hazard stripes here and there on some models in this army and i will do some transfers when i find some crimson fists sheets. will do the occasional hazard stripe too>base rims bright green i seriously thought about it but i ended up going bog standard black because i already have an army with goblin green bases
>>97456771Man those Nundams suck, they don't even have an enclosed cockpit.
>>97456781Yeahs nuns feel incomplete without cocks.
>>97456716Yeah I'm usually not big on osl either but i wanted to try something new, I'm fairly happy with it all things considered
>>97456696Sisters being in terminator armor completely misses the point of sisters. Sisters are supposed to suffer, they WANT to explode and blow up. The more blood they shed, the more gruesome scars and wounds the more their devotion is manifest. Their greatest desire is martyrdom, and their greatest hero is someone who dies CONSTANTLY. They are 1W for a reason, they may be "tough" because of saves from power armor and miracles, but beneath that they are normal human women. An Inquisitor actually wants to survive to continue their career and further their plans which might take centuries to come to fruition.
What if sisters had cavalry?
>>97456805what if you had something interesting to say?
>>97456649I like them. Box art does them no favours.
>>97456650Can you post your models with their perfectly drilled holes?
>>97456801sisters all being suicidal maniacs is a secondary meme.
>>97456805>What if sisters had cavarlyGod they need more fucking models. Fuck all the other ranges at least 3 new models for sisters>New tank>Cavalry sisters (horse/bike/jetbike in the shape of a horse)>Ascended sisters (in between Celestine and normal sisters), able to do in-game miracles that aren't dice roll changes. Models MUST be bathed in golden lights
>>97456837>new tankwe have 4 tanks, we have enough tanks>ascended sistersThat is pretty much Celestians.My personal wish is a Daemon Prince sized imperial saint with similar rules.
>>97456827>I NEED proof that you have this basic hobby skill!lol no
>>97456847bullshit we lack superheavy vehicles>castigatorHeavier than that we need land raider size>CelestiansNot holy enough (also kinda gay models compared to normal battle sister squad)>Daemon Prince sized imperial saint with similar rulesBased
>>97456847>My personal wish is a Daemon Prince sized imperial saint with similar rules.So, a giant sister of battle but with angel wings and golden armor?Sure, I'd be fine with that.
>>97456856>bullshit we lack superheavy vehiclesWe don't need more super heavies in this game.Just take a knight and ally it with your sisters army.
>>97456862>Just take a knight and ally it
>sisters already have more shit than they ever had in the past to the point it's getting silly>I NEED MORE MORE MORE
>>97456851>shitposter>unable to back up his claimsname a more iconic duo
>>97456860I mean they already exist in dawn of war, which IS still considered canon. So it IS still considered canon that 15 foot tall golden angel women who can shoot holy space lasers from their eyes exist.>>97456856>bullshit we lack superheavy vehiclescringe. sisters are glass canon, stop trying to shoehorn your autistic guard/marine shit into my BDSM catholic coded eternal gothic suffering faction.
>space marine player is upset he didnt get his weekly new model
>>97455124>glueing models feet to basesDepends on the basing. If it's simple enough like just dirt/grass I'll plastic glue for a stronger bond. Obviously if I've done more to the basing it has to be super glue, and I often pin one foot.>weapons, does it really matter what I give them?Up to you really. Personally I enjoy WYSIWYG and tend to stick to that myself, but I'm not going to stop someone modelling rule of cool and playing it as something else. Just so long as it's not too confusing, like if two squads have flamers you can run them both as plasma, but don't run one as plasma the other a flamer, that shit's annoying to keep track of.
>>97456869>her boobs is as big as my entire bodyawoooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOgahhhhh...
>>97456869>I mean they already exist in dawn of war, which IS still considered canon
How expensive is it to start a meta Sisters army vs a meta Mechanicus army?I already have Cawl, Celestine and Morvenn Vahl
>>97456868>everything I don't like is shitposting and I need you to dox yourself!Really not beating the allegations.
>>97456869>your picI'd be fine with those.
>>97456871Kek, meant to reply to >>97456735>saw post in last thread and typed up response>cloudflared all afternoon>saw repost, copied reply over>forgot to change post link
>back to hornypostingJerk/jill off before posting here thanks
>>97456877>doxFind a new excuse, mate. You aren't important or interesting enough to dox.
>>97456879Pretty sure sisters have a >must be this tall to join sign and it definitely isn't any shorter than 180
Sisters need a moving cathedral They also use mini ones as drop pods
>>97456877>admitting you either have no models or post them on social media40keks
>>97456897I don't but you don't know that.
>>97456873Lol, well. GW itself has stated DoW is still canon a couple of times so thats what I'm going with.
>>97456907Yeah, fair. I just posted it since I saw the opportunity.
Dark Eldar refresh is coming. I can feel it.
>>97456542>TQMy best painted 40k minis in my eyes are the jetbikes.But my absolute baby is the Emperor's Champion.
I like Saturine armour and the hitscan disintegrator guns . I hope future HH introduces more hilarious op shit and armour patterns. Anything to make 30k and the Heresy feel as alien and different to 40k as 30k and 40k feels to us. Veterans of the long War should should look and feel like bizarre Warp touched Sea People have invaded a late medieval city (a time difference of only around 2,500 years so a quarter of the time as a HH is to 40k) But the technological advantage of the weapons and armour goes to the older people of course since its 40k.
>>97456934i really like the patterns on the top of the bikes big_dick_banditto
>>97456895>Sisters need a moving cathedralIt should be just a land raider with a small cathedral on top
>>97456967>30 years later we finally get a new land raider kit>it's just for sisters with their iconography plastered all over itNo I don't count the ugly 30K one, you can't beat the real land raider design
I wonder if I can convert those giants from Aos into chaos knights. I want something big but I’d like it to be fleshy. Surprised gsc doesn’t deliver on that with some kind of mutated kaijus
>>97456978Sounds based I would love to see any attempt at that. 40k really does lack the fleshy giant monster niche.
>>97456879It is a known fact that magic or in this case faith powers are stored in the tits.
>>97456978Similar size, but I don't think it would work without a lot of heavy converting and adding armor plates and weapons, otherwise could just be seen as lazy.
>>97456867>Chris Chan reaction gifIs he still on the dimensional merge stuff?I wonder how he would react to the sheer scale of warhammer 40k affecting his fantasy of every fictional ip becoming real.
>>97456999>Is he still on the dimensional merge stuff?Oh yeah.
>that guy in the LGShttps://youtu.be/rjPdIwCD5_g?si=aTEwd25Zo4OFtyT7
>>97457001>>97456999didnt he get released from prison? what is he up to now?
>>97457002is this a bot post?
>>97457004No saar.
>>97457003(S)he has a girl friend last time I checked
>>97457003He went to Finland and allegedly somehow got a gf.Yes CHRISCHAN got a gf and you think you think you can't get one. Your problem is that you're not shameless enough.
>>97457009I want a hot GF not a swamp creature. Its fine if I cant pull a 7/10, but I'm not interested in anything less even if I'm a 4/10.
>>97457005>confirmation
>>97457015idk there's UK swamp then there's Finland or Holland swampNot all swamp creatures are equal.
>>97457009Didn't the guy went to prison and is a known rapist?There is a group of women that love those, I mean there is a known issue that women go out of their way to help know violent and problematic criminals in prison. Women that have no relation with said prisoner outside of reading about them.So I'm not surprise
>>97456978>knights>pluralProblem with the aos giants is the samey legpose. The kit comes with a million options and bits but the legs are locked in that exact pose and it's really noticeable once you get more than a single one. (Unless you found a scan you can just mirror I suppose.)
>>97456867This but marine players
>>97457050I only wanted close combat weapon and bolt pistol for Celestians. Something strangely missing from the rules since the witch hunter codex.The unit is built for melee, they have have a melee bonus for fuck sake, but no melee option.
>>97456542>tqHe's not my best, but I've taken this lil nigga around the world with me so his definitely one of my favourites
>>97457050It's a little bit different. Marine players have lost more options than sisters have ever had to begin with
>>97457065And they should lose more.
>>97457068And they will. If there's one thing certain in every edition it's that marines will lose a dozen old options and gain a dozen new options to keep everyone on the purchase treadmill.
>>97456978Turn the glottkin into a chaos knight
>>97456542>tqit's ironic because I'm painting a psyker-centric CSM army but so far my two favorite minis are my old boxnought and my rhino.
>>97457065>It's a little bit differentIt really isn't marines are the most entitled fanbase you'll find, what's a strawman or a joke when made towards other factions is normality for their fans
>>97457065Here is a list of what marines should have. No more no less.
>>97457089you cant post peak 40k here. the zoomer in this thread wont know how to handle it.
>>97457084That is a beautiful shade of military green.Specific paint name please?I love that psychic green energy thing you did with your dread.
>>97457093I can confuse them even further
>>97457084>drilled barrels and exhausts.
>>97457089>>97457093go to bed grandad and stop quoting yourself it's pathetic
>>97457094Thank you very much, green is just plain Castellan Green washed with Agrax, for the green energy effect it's pure white with a mix of Lahmian medium and some random bright green acrylic paint I had left from my "street art" days. >>97457100Much obliged. /40kg/ half-trolled me into stopping doing it recently.
>>97457003He's been collecting knights and space wolves mostly.
>>97457108LMAO fr though ahahaha
>>97457108Should have made the pepe coin his sonichu medallion.
Who's the biggest jobber in 40K?
>>97457108Kek
>>97457107>green is just plain Castellan Green washed with AgraxThanks!>that green energy recipeThanks again!How did you stumble on this kind of recipe if you made it up? It always surprises me when seeing these weird but working things.
>>97457137The imperial guard.They pretty much serve to get beaten up before a marine bailout.
>>97457121now that's a 10/10 idea lmao
>>97457089Neat. Add 90 named characters and Primarchs and ship it.
>>97457154>herohammer more like cringehammer
I clicked on my first 40k slop video.I sadly actually enjoyed it.https://youtu.be/Urhl4mI7vk4
>>97457089>IfSpaceMarinesCodexLookedLikeDarkEldarCodex.png
>>97457137Abaddon.GW had to retcon the 12 previous black crusades because he was that pathetic of an idiot before it.
>>97457089Xenocuckies are pathetic
>>97457165You think gw will have the black legion step aside and have the red corsairs be the face of chaos for a time?I always thought the chaos posterboys should be the word bearers given their rivalry with the ultramarines.
>>97457108Crying >XD
>>97457164Marine players will never be happy.
>>97457149But the Imperial guard are the reinforcements and bailout for the real red shirts of the setting, the Planetary Defence Forces. Most stories involving planets falling don't even mention them so they must be killed to a man or utterly routed
>>97457143>How did you stumble on this kind of recipe if you made it up?It's a very pigment-dense paint for arts and craft, for minis if you don't thin it a lot it just comes off as very thick, so I got Lahmian to make it look cleaner than just water. Initially I just wanted to use it as a bright color to make my marines' eyes pop on a white basecoat, but I then figured out that it looked a lot like a technical paint, so I used it on a bunch of stuff like weapons or flames.
I am constantly paranoid that I'm not filing down the notches on my minis enough. What do?
So what fuck is Erebus even doing right now?
>>97457190You’re right. My bad. Planetary defense forces really are the biggest jobbers in 49k.
>>97457202Leading half of the Word Bearers legion and trying to take control of Kor Pharons half of the legion.Whats the word bearers, a unified legion and second largest organised force of CSM after the Black legion themselves? Who knows
>>97457214>Whats the word bearers, a unified legion and second largest organised force of CSM after the Black legion themselves? Who knowsThey're active in the Dark Imperium being led by Lorgar. We've known this for years.
I love the newer necron models but they look like they'd break if you sneezed on them Can anyone who owns them comment on this? In particular shard of nightbringer and shard of void dragon
>>97457102>he never played real 40ksad
Which Chaos Space Marine Legion is the most evil?
>>97457218Depends on the model and production run.For example GSC Primus, the first production run of them the needle pistol has never snapped for me, but the later production run some times come snapped out of the box.GW quality is all over the place, for how much they charge per product you'd expect better
>>97457218>but they look like they'd break if you sneezed on themThat’s the general issue with gw’s new models.Oldhammer minis are ugly but very solid sculpts for wargaming first in mind but the current warhammer models and especially a large amount of aos character models seem to have no structural integrity considered at all for wargaming.They look like they’re intentionally designed to have a bit break off so a new set has to be bought again to make more money.A sort of middle ground has to be reached here.
>>97457218This hasn't been an issue in quite a while, modern sculpts are usually fixed to the base in multiple points that are not in a straight line.
>>97457199Run a finger nail/hobby blade over and see how smooth it feels
>>97457215Huh I somehow missed that
>>97457228Emperor's Children given the shit they regularly do to people.
>>97457234This is probably a retarded question but is smooth what I'm aiming for? I smooth them down but they have this white mark on them which I hope won't fuck up the model or look ugly when I go to build. Is that not something I should worry about it?
Does anyone have the new Titus lore pdf ? Please?
>>97457228It depends how you define evil, but probably EC given their ample and prismatic set of stuff they like to do.
>>97457243Not him but it should be fine. The primer+paint will cover that white mark where I'm assuming you got into the plastic. The important part is to not chip too much into it or it'll look off. This is fine if you have a horde army or something but really bad if you have a hero.
>>97457236Sloptubers are up the Corax warp shadow short story meme, not realising the 8th ed rulebook mentioned Lorgar was now out and about crusade after the great rift opening.
>>97457176No.Also black legion will stay as the main chaos legion because they are meant to be generic CSM, just like how Ultramarines are meant to be generic loyalist marines.Word Bearers aren't generic, they are basically the chaos version of the Black Templars.Also the black legion is the main chaos legion because they are the sons of horus, ie. the legion of Horus, the guy who almost killed the Emperor, and the legion that was one of the most important to the actual Heresy.
>>97457215>>97457214Is there even a reason to keep him alive at this point? Seems like there really isn't a point to it
Any advice on how to paint fur?
>>97457228EC or Night Lords probably. Most of the others have either grudges or justifications for their behavior; EC and NL just brutalize people for fun.
>>97457228Word Bearers, they literally worship evil
>>97457199no one's gonna care, no one's gonna care about my dudes lore either but it makes me happy. I'll focus on my personal enjoyment and not painting every detail on the underside of the model, or filing down the mold line running along the inside of the legs that's impossible to get to
>>97457262Brand recognition and meme-value. I guess.
>>97457264Drybrush, my son. Start with the darkest tone and drybrush your way up to the lightest, using slightly less paint for each step. The texture on fur is perfect for drybrushing.
can't wait for 11th to not bring back wargear costs but either introduce "wargear packages" so you basically don't get a choice (you wanna buy the dark lance? fuck you, you gotta buy a blaster as well), or just making every special/heavy weapon the same profile so theres no definition between say, a dark lance and a splinter cannon, like how combi-weapons are nowGW doesn't want to go back to an old system, that's admitting a new system is shitbut they also know no wargear costs is also unbalancable
>>97457269>adThose symbols were spray painted on or something and not hand painted right??? The sun symbol on the helmet is fucking godly, the whole thing is. Its such a shame the actual runes/symbols are so fucking plain looking. Coud have used actually old languages so it wouldnt look so generic. It looks like a fake set of symbols that represent ancient lost symbols you know?
>>97457262>Is there even a reason to keep him alive at this point?You mean Erebus?No, not really. But at the same time he is THE guy who orchestrated the Heresy.And since GW loves doing nothing but wanking off the Horus Heresy, of course they are going to keep him alive so they can keep making money off him through books and even models.I wouldn't be surprised if we got a Erebus model in 11th edition.
>>97457243I mean it's depends on the area in question. Most sprue connections are on flat areas so you'd want smooth, yeah. It's not all too uncommon to get them on more textured areas though annoyingly, so you want to try replicate that texturing then. It all gets better with experience but hobbying requires some critical thinking of your own.
Anyone know if you can use Loyalist models are Chaos Space Marines?I want to run a primaris marine Word Bearer army, is that possible?
They literally can't help themselves, only a matter of time until female space marines gets softly introduced through the corrupting influence of chaos
>>97457228EC https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i7AC5M7F4ys
>>97457287Sure, loyalist chapters fall all the time, not everyone has centuries of mutations yet.
>>97457287You can paint them up, but it'll be gay as fuck
>>97457287dataslate wise noif you want an imperial sm with sorta WB-vibe look into the more religous chapters like Covenant of Fire
>>97457290>mike brooksI ignore it.BL lore cannot hurt you if you just say it's not canon
>>97457275>DrybrushI tried it once but the result looked awful. I think I'm too retarded for that. I wish I had more courage to try and experiment while painting
>>97457269Doesn't mean anything. Lots of evil people worship good divinities.
>>97457279GW knows they can't just give you a no war gear option and an all the war gear option or you'll just pick one that fills a niche and completely ignore the other. Just like you did in every previous Edition.
>>97457307What was the problem with it? Drybrushing fur is like one of the easiest things to do with great effect, the only way I could think to stuff it up is if you have too much paint still on the brush. You want to wipe it until pretty damn dry, no streaks on the paper towel.
>>97457269No, they worship the true chaos.>Being evil is a bonus
>>97457326True chaos is evil.
>>97457243The white mark won't be visible once painted, the important part is getting a smooth surface. If it bugs you, scrape on the white mark with your nail and a bit of saliva, that can help mask it somewhat
>>97457326Control yourself
>>97457284Outside of wank really nlo need to keep him around. Not like anyone is going to find out he was the one that caused everything anyway and if they did it's just going to be in a really forced shit story.

>>97457290>>97457303His previous AL book was pretty ok. The worst thing was the amount of "Just as planned" moments. Alpha Legion encountering Primaris for the first time was fun. As was the meeting of different AL warbands and how different they can be.

How's everyone feeling about the current meta?
Bored and autistic so I made a shortlist of all legend sheets for CSM. https://files.catbox.moe/wr5nyj.pdf
ANONS!Thinking of using my daemons against my buddy's Custodes and was having a look at their Index. They seem quite Greater Daemon focused with the big bois being a key part of your playstyle.Is there still a place for the humble Daemon Prince? Stats seem good but I was just wondering how they fit into the army and if they're worth it as a HQ.I'll probably still bring 1 (or 2) since I love DPs but some advice would be appreciated.
>>97457369I don't feel anything at all. I've given up on 10th. It's simply not fun to play.
>>97457108Unhinged obsession with the decalanon
>>97457369I just play in my local meta so it doesn't really matter.
>>97457362From Lexicanum>Dyne and Akurra are on good terms, having saved each others' lives multiple times.[1e] She is loyal to him and the two speak with each other as if they were equals.>Dyne is noticeably not subservient to Space Marines unlike most mortals in Chaos warbands. She speaks to Akurra as equals, and will make requests of and even argue with marines in the warband.[1h] There is particular animosity between her and Qope Halver[1i], who loathes her insolence. Her insolence is due to both confidence in her own powers, claiming that she could break the bones of any marine who tried to kill her,[1g] and in Akurra's protection.[1i]Yeah, she's a strong woman, clearly equal to CSM lord.

>>97457378STRONG LEGO QWEEEEEEEEEN
>>97457369The fact that we CSM were already below 50% and they nerfed us it's annoying.It's nice that they spoil us with fun detachments, so I don't complain too much, but half of the units in the codex are blatantly underpowered, they could fix that.
>>97457375>I've given up on 10th.I’ve given up on any edition of 40k.I now search for a miniature agnostic wargame to easily use 40k miniatures in it.And hopefully with a rules system that makes it easy to homebrew new units.
>>97457378Can't believe people gobble up this slop while clapping their hands in excitement
>>97457290This is disgusting
>>97457378Black library bingo card of this sort of stuff when?
Where am I supposed to connect this piece? I know where it goes on the torso but am I putting this handle bit in the hole or trying to attach it ontop of that peg?
>>97457369I miss my Salamanders.They were the most balanced army, it was fun seeing them from time to time and for their winrate to be around 50% all the time.
>>97457369>GSC>54%>literally 4 guys keeping up the entire factions winrateWhat the fuck is the rest of the player base doing?
>>97457386I've found solace in Necromunda. It's fun. I haven't had any success in convincing my friends to go back to older editions of 40k, but apparently a completely different system was easier.
>>97457369but zoomer told me when we have boring as shit rules like in 10th, the game would be perfectly balanced.
>>97457402Peg i believe

>>97457416>pull mechanics from 7th into 10thIt's bound to happen.
>>97457290Sadly they are forced into these decisions because of massive investment firms like Blackrock blackmailing them into doing so. I promise you GW employees gag when they see this shit too, just know its not true canon and burn it from your mind.
>>97457322So I tried to paint this fur all black with white highlights using drybrush but didn't like it so I painted it over with gold. But I still don't like how it looks and I don't know how to fix it. It was my first attempt at drybrushing tho

>>97456559>conversionsSome of my faves
>>97457522Nice effort, but I can't recommend miniature masking tape for hazard stripes enough
>>97457501I mean I’ve seen the women in power armor models and even by oldhammer standards they look bad.Like they try to spin that gamers are sexist but I’m not buying it.Gw sculptors couldn’t get female faces right then and certainly not now and I think that’s why they didn’t sell well.
>>97457411>>97457420Thank you bros. My list of dudes grows slowly but surely.God I wish I wasn't a retard and used Tamiya for my Sergeant. I need to fix him somehow but I want to finish my roster before that.
>>97457404It's like this for all the super low play rate armies. There are like five faction specialists for each who know how to squeeze every ounce of gas out of a ridiculously hard to play Army and they always post up at least decent results that no casual can ever possibly replicate and most competitive players wouldn't put up with the headache of actually managing the army for a middling chance at actually winning a tournament.
>>97457531>gamers are sexist This is true, however, there's nothing wrong with it.
>>97457530I've gotten tape since then and you are right it helps
>>97457516Women lack the D, so it must be Slegehammer only.
>>97457510you should have. the answer depends on it.
>>97457538Well everybody is to an extent.I’ll be honest I can’t tell if any women or minority inclusion is genuine and organic or just trying to tick boxes at this point.It certainly is the case that white male writers like adb and Mike brooks use women and minorities in their warhammer books to look virtuous just by including them alone. So I can’t see their characters as characters and I instead see them more like props they put up.
>>97457531>power armor models and even by oldhammer standards they look bad.What are you talking about, they look lovely!But seriously, these are proto-sisters and if they were ever intended to be marines it changed long before even these were made. They have the same armour pieces as Sister Sin and they have SISTER on the tabsAlso whoever stole my scalpel, give it back
>>97457570What ADB and Mike Brooks have done is basically poison the well for other writers and creatives, ie. no matter what they'll do or how they do it, some guy is just gonna go "Eugh, woke DEI slop" if they even see 1 woman or black man in an IP.This is one of the reasons why I don't watch any modern movies or TV shows, it just poisons your mind.Over all this whole indentity politics shit has actually set society back like 20-40 years.

How do you marinefags feel about using first-founding iconography for /yourdudes/' chapter? I'm thinking of using the Imperial Fists symbol for mine because:>it looks nice and feels generic enough>I could probably freehand it with some practice>the IF symbol has already been reused, eg; Crimson Fists>it makes sense for my dudes to be an IF successor>I don't feel like sanding the fist off of the back of Darnath Lysander's cape for my chapter master
>>97457650Anglos are the worst

>>97457687>Please use this image if you need one of me for a publicity shot or something. I mean, please ask, but also please use this one.I wonder why
>>97457666Sounds good. The IF have a lot of successors and the fist symbol is common enough that even traitor warbands have it (Red corsairs) so go for it. Lysander should be easy enough to alter since all you need is a head swap or put a helmet on him.
>>97457597Oldhammer sculpts are bad and yet I still like them because they have a retro aesthetic to them now.I worded that all terribly in the post you replied to.
>>97457707What an adorable gnome mother of 4
>>97457719https://interplanetarytrashtalk.bandcamp.com/Here's his band btw
>>97457597>if they were ever intended to be marines it changed long before even these were made.True, but some potential design aspects might've survived for a while in RT. Like sisters using the exact style of power armor as marines, which imo is kind of odd to me and that one sister image depicts her with a ram head symbol on her left pauldron just like marines have.Also iirc even in RT marines were already warrior monks, and well we do have female "monks" IRL, they just called nuns. Which is what sisters are, warrior nuns.Even the "sister" stamp those models have on the bar attaching to the feet makes sense, if female marines existed they'd just refer to one another as "sister" just like male marines refer to each to each other as "brother".It could be that very very early on in developement what we know as modern sororitas and the modern space marines were both meant to be the same thing before RT released, ie. sisters and marines are both space marines, but all the marine chapters were separated by gender/sex, ie. all chapters are either male only or female only for whatever reason.
>>97457707Few things disgust me as much as men wearing nail polish
>>97457722>Platinum DogsYou just know..
Help a nigga out here, how come SoBs aren't accepted by the woke-DEI crowd as female space marines? They're practically the same
>>97457718I agree with you, they look awful but I love them anyway>>97457724>that one sister image depicts her with a ram head symbol on her left pauldron just like marines have.Did any marines from that era actually have the ram skull on them?Not trying to gotcha or anything, I genuinely just cant think of any and I own quite a few RT era marines. The two Female Adventurers do have the ram skull, like Sister Sin who is explicitly described as being part of the sororitas
>>97457725Honestly would wear black nail polish if my job allowed it but in LE there's no way
>>97457731SoB are weaker by definition and leftists need women to be better than men.
>>97457645>>97457675luv boxes
>>97457731I dont know what world you all live in where people are regularly hooting and hollaring about no female space marines in spades. Another problem you retards made up in your head to get angry about.

>>97457752Nigga you live in a space pyramid on planet denial cuse u don't know shit 'bout reality
>>97457725It's vile, unnatural and disgusts me.
>>97457716>all you need is a head swap or put a helmet on himI'm probably gonna use Lysander for something, but with regards to the cape I'm sticking that on the generic terminator captain. I still have yet to decide if I want him to be a proxy for Lysander or for Calgar.It's pretty much a matter of me choosing between giving him a hammer and shield, or dual-wield storm bolters.
>>97457747So Custodes are acceptable female space marines then, right?
>>97457687>whatever equivalent terminology you want to use that doesn't imply a refusal to acknowledge the validity of trans people...what?Is he trying to say that he doesn't want to fuck trannies, but they're still hecking valid? Or is he trying to say that he would fuck trannies, but "bi" is not inclusive enough of a term?
>>97457731It was never about women having their own space and representation, it was always about taking away what men have
>>97457772Bi implies that there are only two genders and that's problematic mkay? But aslo, claiming that trans folx aren't men or women is also hecking problematic. He's a shitlord in denial
>>97457290Wait...I thought all the AL had to get under the knife to make sure they all looked like their Primarchs if they had physical differences after ascension?
>>97457760So that's why it got nerfed. What does the bird do? Artillery?

>>97457803Fuck Custodes they should have never been a tabletop army. I dont care about female custodes because my opinion on them could not possibly be any lower
>>97457792A tall, bald man can blend in anywhere
>>97457813I agree, it's funny they are the trans faction now
>>97457758Hehehe stripes
>>97457378>le strong woman that is hekkin respected by csm>she's also magic can totally kill a marine Why is it always chaos that ends up with the worst OC donut steel females? >>97457435You should also add >author's barely disguised marine self-insert whose le stronger/as strong as their Primarch Khayon is such a shit character but then again majority of the Black Legion is shit characters.
Its easier to accept female custards exist due to them being bespoke genetic superhumans that individually are works of art with no stated reason why they *can't* be women. The bad part is how this makes them more resemble sigmarines, which is fucking criminal
