>dogpilePerfect, no notes
>>98540458OK ratfag that's enough out of you
Worst edition of the month, you’ve outdone yourself anon.
>>98540473LE XD DECALFAG XDXD :DD
98540465Not dragging your stupid bs into the new thread, shitposter-kun. Go on, give your usual line about sniffing petrol and ramarama because that video is all you know of Aus culture
>>98540425I wanted to do a Bayard’s revenge with him stabbing a helldrake as it crashes. Then I finally got a helldrake and realized how fucking awful that kit is. So now I’m painting him about to end some poor Genestealer fuck.
>>98540473PERMANENTLYLIMITED
>>98540473when are you going to start an ork army? get on with it!
>>98540489>Aus culture Nta but you’re a prison colony, get over yourself.
>>98540491kek
>Took to long to post and new bread was baked before I realised Anyway anons how is your collage model going?Me personally, pretty much done just need to dry brush the base and a few other touch ups like the left bicep. Finding out the bigboss is a support character in the codex was the cherry on top.>>98540473>Hellblaster status?
>>98540489We are all just one of many ratfags personalities m8
>>98540508ORKS XDXD
>>98540501I never said our culture was any good, in fact I kinda hate it. I just said that Alice Springs music video is all shitposter-kun knows about Straya because it's the only thing he quotes when he tries to speak with our slang>>98540515Get farked, I hate vtumours and their simps. Don't lump me in with him, I hate that we share a state and will dropkick his ass if we ever cross paths
>>98540425>TQI'm doing a mini-diorama right now. Painting the trim as we speak. I haven't decided if the stabbed scout is going to be a blood angel, dark angel, or my homebrew chapter. Also, freehanding is surprisingly manageable. It kind of makes decals dumber than they already are.
>>98540530That's pretty neat.
>>98540508So we know what leaders and supports can attach to in the new codex?
Every day I regret using chapter upgrades on my entire army. I should have saved them for specific models so I could change chapters if I wanted to.
>>98540542You can just use whatever rules, you know that right?
>>98540527Post models i demand it
>Australians in the thread>post quality deteriorates
>>98540545Yes, I know.But I'm plagued by actual OCD and have a little voice in my head that tells me that because the models have the Salamanders chapter icon molded onto them, I have to paint them the right colors or I've wasted my money.
>>98540552>Paint icons differently>Paint shoulder differently.>Optionally, use a knife and trim parts of the shoulder icons.>If you used superglue, freeze models and remove shoulders.Voila. Fixed.
>>98540555>Paint icons differently>Paint shoulder differently.This could actually work for me, now that I think about it.I could make a successor chapter with a different color scheme and then use that to justify not using the named characters / other detachments.I'm mad I didn't think about that.
>>98540536Thanks. My only regret is not making the fork have four tines.
>>98540419florida, though I suppose that’s the aus of america. its genuinely pissing me off because I live in a pretty well populated city, and that dude lives in bumfuck arkansas, so a bunch of other normal posters must be in my boat right now.
>>98540561Well, now you have something you can do and it might ease your OCD. As someone with OCD I know the struggle. Plus, successor chapters are awesome and open up avenues for /yourdudes/.
>>98540570Okay we get it pal so quit your bitching.
I'm a racist and I love the Black Templars.
>>98540546This is an old pic and >unpaintedI know I know, still haven't finished them so was waiting to post. Currently distracted by turning speccy squad into Tanith, then I'll join them with this inquisitor and his stormtrooper army.>>98540552That's fair and understandable honestly, I was being a bit cheeky with my post. I currently have three different ways to build my list thanks to the pants on head way James has done the modern IG codex and I should be grateful I have options, but it's pissing me off more than anything
>>98540530>Also, freehanding is surprisingly manageable.It's almost like people have been painting freehand for centuries
>>98540576>I'm a racist and I love the Black...s
>>98540571I appreciate it, anon.
>>98540591Anytime, Anon. Best of luck with your work!
>>98540576Sick Tautology anon.
>>98540530>freehanding is surprisingly manageableHaving a reference helps immensely. I tried freehanding for the first time some time ago and it went surprisingly well too.
i need to stop lying to myself that i'll ever play a game and just build models i enjoy looking at on the shelf
Post WIPs/models/games2nd Ridgerunner mostly done, I need to clean up the chassis and paint the weapons. The crew is done. I'm gonna need a lot of texture mud for that HUEG base.
>>98540584Yeah, but I expected to be really shit at it.
>>98540615ironic
>>98540608Nobody cares about namefag drama here so knock it off.
>painting chaos trim for the first time in almost a yearIt's not hard but holy fuck is it tedious.
>>98540659Go insano mode and prime in gold.
>>98540578based model haver
I honestly can't stand 11th edition or any of the modern stuff. But I've also never felt like any of the past editions were perfect either, there's always some standout rules that suck all the fun out of it. So I've decided I'm going to homebrew my own setup where I can pick and choose the best rules. I'd like to gather some thoughts from the old grognards here. Who knows, if it goes well maybe I'll post the first draft here.What do you feel are the some of the biggest losses from the old editions? Morale and running away? Pinning? Vehicle facings? Weapons having short and long ranges? More character customization?What do you think is the best version of cover? Line of sight? Wound allocation? Do you think if one model of a squad is visible that the entire unit should be able to be shot?
>>98540639Permanent means permanent
>>98540616Based GSC enjoyer. Slowly finishing these assholes. I'm yet to put together my second ridgerunner
>posts get deleted so far I dont get a chance to read them
>>98540576I’m trans and love black templars! <3Still racist though
>>98540616
>>98540725with every passing day, I’m becoming more and more certain he commissioned the models. there’s no way he’d be able to paint such a massive army, then just suddenly stop.
>>98540745damn>>98540735Aberrants are pretty nice, running 10 in my list.
>>98540747I think the paintjobs are too shit to be commissioned pieces.
>>98540731Yeah, they're called Chaos
>>98540747I have absolutely no doubt he>didn't pay for the models, mommy did>commissioned someone to build and/or paint themSomebody once made a comment that even as ugly as his main force is, they don't have the mold lines and sprue nubs like the hellblasters. That's all the evidence I need to tell that he didn't build that 16 kilolitres of models himself, and he certainly didn't paint them.>>98540758You'd be surprised at how many B grade hobbyists are out there doing commission work
>>98540758theyre in line with ebay propainted shit and he certainly feels like a retard that'd fall for it
>>98540766>>98540769I've never looked at what people are selling in the way of prepainted shit, but is all that fugly contrast sloppa, coffeestaining, overspray (not even with an airbrush, a drybrush), and sprue nubs really what some people will sell?
>>98540758I was arguing with an anti-airbrush fag this week who boasted being a commission painter without an airbrush and his shit was legitimately fecalfag tier
>>98540758Commission painting is not just singular high effort pieces for hundreds of dollars. It's also batch painting armies for lazy competitive fags who need a new meta list by the next tournament. Plenty of low quality work there.
>>98540785Fuck I wish I was around to see that. I remember another anon mentioning him and his shit paintjobs.Being anti-airbursh is also performative as fuck.
fuck bros i should start selling slightly ok painted models for double the price on ebay
>>98540785id like to see that thread desu, no idea why people are so against an airbrush
>>98540798Attention-whoring and snobbery, which is a form of attention-whoring.
All of these nomodels and paintlets talking trash XD fucking priceless.
>>98540780Yes, 100%. Retard commission artists think the dramatic shading and overspray looks good to their market and stands out, and the unfortunate truth is that half of the 40K fanbase are stupid enough to fall for it because at a distance it can look rather striking. A reasonable person then looks up close and finds it's just sloppy and bad work, a sperg is still busy basedfacing over all the "cool lighting effects" they can't fathom doing themself and uses their autismbux to pay for it, or a compfag just doesn't really care and pays for the work anyway because they need an army done for a tournament
>>98540808i am not a nomodels but im an average painter
>>98540829That puts you above the mutie.
>>98540808Permanent means permanent
>>98540766man, the idea his mind literally isn’t equipped to to cut off sprue nubs is so depressing its almost maddening. if that’s the case, then he’s on the mental lower end of lolcows which is amazing because there’s a lot of competition there.
Beginner here, I have some experience painting but am finally starting to get interested in picking an army and sticking with it to actually play the game>love gothic 40K themes>narrowed selection down to BT / SOB>everyone online warns me SOB are too hard for noobsIs this true? I really like the aesthetic of them, but the black templars are pretty cool too. I don't want to be filtered by losing my first 20 games
Let Chaos Idols take this thread!bruh, I've been stuck in meetings since 8am
I like orks :D
What are some cool custom color schemes you're seen on marines? Give me ideas
>>98540861what the fuck >>98540766 was right. I don’t see a single mouldline let alone nubs on those models.
>>98540861
>>98540859The Operation Imperator book has a few depictions of Ork Gargants that look similar enough to have me huffing copium that we'll get a legit non-Stompa Gargant model at some point.Ideally they'd get their head out of their ass and free Epic 40k from Heresy-era jail so we can start getting weird xenos titans.
>>98540785What if the anti-airbrush fag was, against all odds, the commissioned painter the mutant hired?
more deleted posts incoming
>>98540861God what the fuck happened to ulrics face.
>>98540884explain why you were able to clean off all your mouldlines for every model EXCEPT for the hellblasters you’ve spent nearly a year painting. in fact, explain why you easily were able to paint 16K points of models in a span of two years, and now suddenly stopped to shitpost 8 hours a day.
>>98540849Bigger = easier to paint. Space Marines are bigger than Sisters, so BT are easier to paint.SoB have a LOT of tiny little details that are meant to be a different color than their surroundings, and have a palette that doesn't play well with quite a few "traditional" painting tricks so they're not a good starting point. Sisters are a good "intermediate skill check," for lack of a better term.>I don't want to be filtered by losing my first 20 gamesThen don't start with Sisters, they're very "not good" in most matchups and require a good bit of knowledge of how the game works (both your army and theirs) to play with a very restrictive roster. BT are better on this front, but neither are ideal for a complete newfriend.If you MUST pick between the two, I'd suggest Templars, but overall I'd look somewhere else entirely for a good playing experience before you learn how the game works. Blood Angels or Dark Angels would be better for a player experience to begin with, and both still play off of the gothic aesthetic a lot more than other SM chapters (DA more along the SoB sense, BA more along the traditional "religious imagery" sense).
>>98540895How many bans is it now?
>>98540861Why did you paint your knights with the same scheme as your space wolves instead of as a part of House Hawkshroud?
>>98540898Its almost assuredly commissioned work from tism bucks.
>>98540934Who smacks on all the decals, the painter or the commissioner?
>>98540849If you pick sisters just run morvann vahl and 3 battlesuits.Kicked my ass last game.
>>98540943I noticed it, but its a very subtle mouldline… definitely not to the level of your hellblasters. >I have like 6 large bins of models and don’t want to contribute more to the pile right nowwhy not? if this is too many models for you to have, then why would time effect when you decide to add more? this has also been ongoing for a year. it sounds like you’ve quit hobbying altogether.
>>98540983>it sounds like you’ve quit hobbying altogether.Getting permanently banned from the collage has left him traumatized. Not shitposting here, it's what happened.
>>98540849I mean commonly sisters win rate is higher than BT.And I have no idea why people think BT are easier, because melee infantry BT are trash. Its armored warfare BT that have been strong on and off. While sisters you just cover the field with flamers, and then get your Paragons into the cookie jar. Using miracle dice, to make that random single melta gun do 8 damage to a rogal dorn occasionally.
Are only marines of the first company allowed to take terminator armor? When other companies field terminators are those marines on loan from the first?
>>98540425>Haven't been paying attention to 40k for a while because 11th a shit>Rumors that SM might be going to T5 with their codexJesus Christ, why does this feel like it's just going to be a retread of 2 wound marines and Armor of Contempt during 9th?
>>98540986I’m curious as to why time would effect your decision to make a 7th bin? assuming a year passes, what’s going to make you say “yup, its time for another knight”.
I can't decide if I like clear canopies or painted canopies. Thoughts?
>>98540986I’m also curious to hear your answer as to if you’ve quit hobbying. at this point if its been a year and you’ve still have no motivation to pick it back up, then I and most people would consider that quitting.
>>98541018example of the other style
>>98541005>>98540983>>98540898why are you avatarfagging
>>98540943>It's proud of its mould likes
>>98541021you’re bringing up playing when I’m clearly talking about painting. are you done PAINTING MODELS and will now just play games? >>98541023its a reaction image. it just happens to all be Odo because I’m rewatching deep space nine.
>>98540997Yes. O and BG, VG, SG, are all first company too. Terminators are actually those 3 units wearing terminator armor. Like how CSM terminators used to just be chosen, who took terminator armor as wargear. However, officers could have been promoted post first company stint, so most lieutenants and all captains have terminator honors.
>>98541018>>98541022The difference is entirely in execution. Do whatever you feel more confident in.
>>98541018Painted canopies can look nice, but it'd take a lot effort. Clear canopies look alright for not much effort, and seeing the guy inside looks nice.
>>98541038If you get to the part where he's telling some schmoe who asks if he's ever even felt love "if I had someone I cared about I certainly wouldn't tell you about it" could you cap and post it
>>98541018>>98541022Clear is superior purely because it allows you to show off how differently you paint your pilots' uniform.
>>98541018painted is for pussies
Dark Eldar refresh is coming. I can feel it.
>>98541068There's nothing new in the codex though, right? I haven't found a download yet.All they can do is replace some old models, most of which are still fine.
>>98541084when? its been nearly a year.
>got some warhammer models at a good price>weekly spending jumpsAlrightWe go back to cutting next week. I forgot how expensive shit was.
>>98540425>made oneno, I'm too afraid and unskilled.>dreamt ofmany, I want to do one of a mandrake beheading many space marines using some sort of red movement line to follow the blade and convey movement through the space. I want to do an anachronistic gundam vs WW2 soldiers diorama.I want to do a civilian diorama of an alien 40k society
There was a point in early april when I could have gotten a complete stormraven sans the canopy+stand for 45 bucks and the battlezone fronteris terrain for 108 bucks but I was trying to not spend money (I failed and bought something else) and now I think of that when looking at cunts selling Fronteris for like 200 bucks and stormravens missing wings for 80 bucks.
>>98541120I decided to lay out everything I have that's unpainted, I became filled with immense shame, needless to say, I'm forcing myself to no new models for months (years)
>>98540849every army is one balance update away from swinging from top to bottom and viceversawith that in mind, you should always choose an army youd have fun collecting.
Damn, jannies be on it today. Wuts up m8s. How are ya cunts? Been painting some gallow dark terrain and saw ktg was dead. Shame.
>>98541131I organised mine for painting and had to buy 2 four shelf racks to put it all on. Realised I have more than I think I'll be able to paint in my lifetime. I'm only going to buy the things that I really want to paint and I need to go through and sell some stuff I don't desire to paint anymore. (I weighed it too, almost 200lbs of models)
>>98541131Yessss save money for years adn then go on a massive buying spree
>>98540849So there's a few pieces of advice that apply to anyone choosing an army.1. Current meta performance doesn't matter at all. This changes constantly, some armies like eldar have been absolute menace and then just months later are bottom of the barrel. There are some exceptions however, necrons have been near the top for years straight, and of course marines have always been good and will always be good and are the gold standard for a strong but still near average army on purpose, they're a measuring stick for what is good. So don't judge by what's good.2. That said, some armies are inherently more difficult to play. This is separate from win rate. Deldar are notorious hard to play because they're fragile and mistakes get units wiped, but they're also fast and strong and have all the tools to do well. In the hands of a skilled player, they're really good, but a noob will lose every game. So there are armies with high skill floor (deldar, eldar, sob) and there are armies with low skill floor (marines, necrons, nids). These trends generally don't change as often as meta does.3. Hobby is forever. You're going to spend a lot more time looking at them on your shelf than you are actually playing the game, so err on the side of what looks cool when making choices about what units to buy, how to paint them, and even wargear options. 4. Don't be afraid of "difficult to paint". That just means it'll take more time to learn, that's all. Marines are notoriously easy to paint because they have large open smooth spaces, while factions with lots of detail and belts and lots of skin and many colors per model and small spaces are hard. But just go for the hard if it's the faction you like. Buy a few test models that you're ok with ruining, and practice. You can strip paint to try again. Painting, like all skills that scale with experience and knowledge, is a skill. Repetitions and research from painting guides will work, just have patience.
>>98541146You’ve got shit on your nose
>>98541172UwU would you lick it off for me battle brother? *murrs gently @ u*
>>98541018>>98541022I did painted because I could never get the pilot to fit properly for some reason so eventually I just stopped trying. Plus a couple of my tanks were ebay rescues and I didn't have a choice.
>>98541146calm down ratfag
>>98541100We need new Wyches. They genuinely can't make wyches worse than the ones we have currently.Kabalites are timeless, as are the big boats, a new Venom would be nice tho.I'd like new hellions too.
>>98541131It took me 8 years to actually paint all my guys anon, I just finished recently, you'll get there eventually!
If you could get one new unit for your favorite faction, what would you want?
Y'all remember Blackstone (Noctilith)? I think exotic minerals (psi-reactive) and heavy elements might be the most valuable resources in the 40k setting.Water, you only need oxygen – hydrogen is everywhere. Same for biomass.Maybe arable land, though, idk.
>>98540425An orange marine? :O
>>98541228The new Medium Knights
>>98541214The Wytches will remain sexless uggoes, guaranteed.
>>98541228ork snipers. closest thing we have is this git (who technically isn’t even using a proper sniper). we need some good shooty boyz who think its fun to pop ‘umie heads from a distance.
Are tempestus scions considered disposable cannon fodder?
>>98541228I don't need new I need old-resin-in-plastic let me have my fucking FLAVOR back. Basically everything I want for any of my factions is something FW made a long time ago.But I supposed if I had to have something completely new I'd ask for a new tank with a large transport capacity and decent toughness with less impressive firepower.
>>98541256Disposable, yes. Cannon fodder, no.
>>98541256Everyone in the Imperium is disposable, except for the Emperor.
>>98541214>They genuinely can't make wyches worse than the ones we have currently.They'll make them wear pants. Maybe even boots! Hahahahaha
>>98541266The Emperor of Mankind was considered disposable by the God Emperor, who orchestrated that guy's enthronement so He could be born from the galaxy's worship of the guy on the throne.
>>98541268No!!!
>>98541228A melee battleline unit for crons that can be led/supported by crypteks.
>>98541272Fuck off bald cunt.
>>98541278I was thinking that exact image lol, thanks
>>98541228Ghost Arks that could actually transport Lychguard. Thanks
>>98541286The God Emperor is an actual divinity, and thus has always existed in the warp. He guided the shamans who were reborn into the child that would be adored by trillions for ten thousand years and thus spawn Himself in a recursive loop.Those things affect present, past and future. It's how the Egyptians knew of Horus - the heresy was so violent it echoed into the collective myths of the past.
>>98541228I would like a specifically made clone for Votann made to house psychic powers via a crown they wear. This clone must be big but naked.
>>98541228Can it be an old unit?
>>98541255BS 5+ A 1 S3 AP0 D2 Dev wounds, anti-infantry 4+
>>98541228Ice guns.
>>98541319>whole Nocolith mcguffin bullshit about Necrons being able to turn off warp influence>Pariah Nexus literally named it >Pariahs literally fucking designed for itCome on it's so FITTING. They MADE it so.
>>98541228For Death Guard, either a new power armour unit based on mortis poisoners or just give me back access to possessed. Even if you have to call them something inane like Sevenbound Shitblasters.
>>98540659It's a bit tedious on most of the models, but I especially loathe the trim on Havocs. I swear they have more trim than actual surface area.

>>98541333What do we want human necrons hybrids for?
goddamni think i can get away with doing a feesh and hammerhead up in fdmplenty of work required but wew lad
>>98541340Destiny
>>98541228Transport for Necrons that can move Immortals and Lychguard in full strength squads.A non transport MBT for Votann.non-Hero Melee/Gunkata suit squad for T'au
>>98541349In that case>>98541228I would like to request Chaos Xenos.
>>98541356Chaos xenos don't really work as a concept
>>98541349I like that necron's hat, but I don't know the plot of destiny. Digitized humans would still be humans
>>98541368I want to pet your xenomorph and mate with its females.
>>98541362>Of all the myriad species in the galaxy across 65 million years, chaos affects ONLY the primates of Earth, and only after year 25,000 ADIt's like reverse Amish.
>>98541376It's logical. Chaos is self-destructive, so any species that fall entirely to chaos would cease to exist. Being a raging khornate berserker is not conducive to raising a family. And, on top of that, Chaos currently has 9 Chaos legions making for nearly 1 million Chaos marines, who are all rabidly xenophobic against everything that isn't human and will gladly exterminate xenos for fun, along with their similarly xenophobic mortal Lost and the Damned followers.
>>98541349I've just realized that the Taken are an extreme version of Ork looting, being a whole faction of captured and converted enemies. It's like if Chaos decided it was funny to mindfuck a whole bunch of xenos races into acceptance. Maybe one day Looted Tyranids will be a thing.
>>98541383>Being a raging khornate berserker is not conducive to raising a familyI heard Slaanesh cultists reproduce a lot. Not necessarily in family units, though.
>>98541385Man, I have such nostalgia for Taken King. Playing it for the first time and having enemies be Taken right in front of me and being on edge the entire time was awesome.
>>98541385That ain't Liam Neeson.
>>98541385>Maybe one day Looted Tyranids will be a thing.Is there any Beastmaster faction in 40k? Nids control each other, Snakebites and Orks in general use Squigs, DEldar have Khymerae but that's not their whole faction. I haven't seen any the way WHFB factions exploiting dragons, wyverns, mammoths, not innate to their faction or spawned by their biology.
I want to learn to play, anyone know any good channels where I can watch matches play out? I feel like that's the best way to learn
>>98541385>mfw now I understand how enemies react when big boss kidnaps and recruits their whole army
Anyone ever get vehicles, specifically Eldar ones from recasters? I want some Fire Prisms/Falcons/Wave Serpents but none of the lgs within the hour have them in stock, and the ones that do are selling them for $100 a pop. Fuck that.
>>98541228More medium bugs for the nids.
I read Gaunt's GhostsWhat's the next most enjoyable Guard book?
>>98541228Ork tanks. Like the old Forge World Kill Bursta/Blasta/Krusha.Honestly, a lot of the Forge World stuff would be great in plastic. Mega/Meka Dreds, Grot tanks, Big Trakks, etc
>>98541362False. Laer, Saruthi, Crone World Eldar, Xenarch, Grell all work fine. Its nice there are xenos that aren't chaos based, but having some works just as well as having an entire eye of terror filled with them.
>>98541228Daemon engine infantry units for CSMLike the Iron Warriors mashed a bunch of different little daemons together like Nurglings and Blue horrors and use them as cannon fodder.
>>98541413Did you read the whole series?Try the Ciaphas Cain novels.
>>9854141315 Hours.
>first game at a local tourney is against kniggasA first for me. So what's the overall plan with fighting them, a matter of attrition?
>>98541413
>>98541420Literally who?
>>98541433We'll tell you when you're older.
Armies for this feel?>>98541431God I love discworld so fucking much.
>>98541228seconding this anon >>98541257, eldar had so much cool FW shit that was both thematic and fun. now it's all gone like tears in rain because the GW design team were fags and didn't want competition.
>>98541333What are the odds DoW 3 (4) brings them back?
>>985414560
>>98541429>Kniggas Are you talking about Knights? Sorry I can’t understand your niggerisms.
>>98541465Well, apparently you can. Regardless, the question still stands.
I got a pepperoni pizza in the oven, do you think Orks would appreciate pizza?
>>98541469Yes everybody loves 'za
>>98541444>>98541415It's wild how well most of the Forge World stuff has aged and not just in a "It sorta still looks okay next to the new stuff" way but a "This mogs a lot of new models" way. Their painting team were fucking gigachads at their craft, too, and looking through the Imperial Armor books was one of the biggest things that really got me into the modelling and painting aspect of the hobby. It's actually kind of sad that the newer generations won't have badass new Forge World books and models to look forward to.
>>98541468If you can’t slightly tailor against them then you’re most likely phucked but you can still get lucky. When I play them casually I fully let my opponent know that I am so he can respectfully tailor his army.
>>98541429Knights are a stat check. Bring anti-tank weaponry or prepare to eat a bowl of shit. Or kick them in the shins really hard.
>>98541485>mfw that pic
>>98541498Your honesty is a breath of fresh air here
>>98541469No. Their teeth are for eating meat they don't have the molars for pizza. Unless they take someone else's I suppose
What's the consensus on epic characters? I never buy them for fear that they'll get replaced, stats left untouched forever, or fall into the legends category. I really want to get a Kravek for my IW army, but I don't know what the life cycle tends to be for character models. Do you lads have any advice?
>>98541502Epic characters are for converting into none characters.
>>98541485>When I playLol
>>98541508Fuck you
I think Ratling Grime is a great colour.
>>98541495I'm taking at least one Caladius with me and just hoping I won't need the second, lethality is a concern since enough brute force can already tear through TEQ statlines and I'm aware of just how hard Canis Rex can punch. Mostly thinking about playing around the terrain, since the rules are a bit abstract this time around and knights get a bit of brevity there, but at least the tank can technically fly over ruins so maybe I can do a gotcha.>>98541502You could make your own Warsmith, and even if Kravek's rules doesn't last very long, he can still be a Chaos Lord Terminator.
>>98540490Damn what a waste of a clamavus :(
>>98541319Didn't they get taken out of the lore?
>>98541502Rule of cool anon. Never buy a model because it is meta.
>>98541521It is, im a big fan too
>>98541529Genestealer detected
>>98541502Everyone here seems to hate them, which is telling as they are pretty much admitting to us that they are nogames lmao
>>98541541Certainly am, i wouldn't waste that much $ on a character for base decoration, shits expensive enough as it is
>>98541522>just hoping I won't need the secondYou will need the second.I'm speaking as a CK and Custodes player. Knights have the Super Heavy Walker keyword, meaning they can go through terrain with relative ease.
>>98541502Not a fan of them personally. They should be relegated to a specific format of play, instead of bring a necessary piece to make most armies work. With that said, I think many work well to kitbash and convert into /yourdudes/.
So what do anons think the next free mini of the month will be? Something relevant to recent releases or another warehouse rerun?
>>98541522>>98541560I would have got a generic chaos lord termie instead, but the model seems outdated and doesn't look very well mixed with the current csm termies. At least that's what I've heard?>>98541537I am considering buying him for that reason mainly, and that the csm termie lord seems outdated. I also just don't want to have a situation where I play a game with him once or twice and find out he's getting shitcanned next edition or something like that.
Anyone buy any new models today? I bought some shining spears, because what is an eldar army without some jet bikes? Not an eldar army I'd join, I'll tell you that for free.
>>98541567>I would have got a generic chaos lord termie instead, but the model seems outdated and doesn't look very well mixed with the current csm termies. At least that's what I've heard?I am biased as I own four Chaos Terminator Lord kits between three Chaos armies.
>>98541562I don't care because my fuck ass local store runs out day 1 every month. I never get the chance to get one anymore.
>>98541571Im working on the yiff scouts I purchased a week ago.
>>98541228Hmm. My fav faction is Necrons, give me Immortals with melee weapons as a battleline melee unit.Give them a choice between long spears or axes.
>take tau vehicle >replace smooth angles with sharp angles>put shoes on all it's tiny feet>paint the whole thing blue>slap an Aquila on the frontbehold, the Astreus
>>98541593see what they need to mimic even a fraction of our power
>>98541502If you like the model buy it and if he gets sent to legends proxy it. Though given kravek is less than a year old I'd imagine he's gonna sticking around for at least the next ten years. At worst he gets moved into a hypothetical IW codex supplement.On a side note Kravek ability to one shot a big monster or vehicle always impresses me.
>>98541571anons talked me out of splurging $300 for my first batch of models ever, so I just spent $50 on this instead
>>98541576Only missed out on the ork. Disappointing but whatever. Orks are super common anyway.
>>98541600If you liked CSM, you should have just a single box of something you thought was cool from their line. No reason to change faction just because. Rule of cool, anon. Whatever models you think are cool are infinitely better to collect than what's good rules-wise. Rules are temporary, models are forever. And who knows, you may have enjoyed painting them. You are your own person>>98541593That thing is distinctly a Space Marine tank. Sqround corners, boxy, multiple layers. I don't see how you're drawing a conclusion that this was a phoned in redesigned Tau ship
I don't play Warhammer 40k, I play hello kitty island adventure.
>>98541614it hovers
>>98541571My friend got me some more Corsair Voidscarred as a gift. But you're absolutely correct, every Eldar army should have some jetbikes. I've personally got 24 + 3 shining spears + 2 jetseers + 6 shroud runners. Patrician taste, anon. Patrician taste
>>98541615Butters...
>>98541614I might end up picking up some CSM eventually, but these guys were cheaper and I like their aesthetic too, there's a nice variety
>>98541600Starting out small is good, and killteam is perfect for that. I've a battleclade and voidscarred box myself. Blades of Khaine too though that was more because that's currently the only way to buy Striking Scorpions.
>>98540849>>98541159>4. Don't be afraid of "difficult to paint". That just means it'll take more time to learn, that's all. Marines are notoriously easy to paint because they have large open smooth spaces, while factions with lots of detail and belts and lots of skin and many colors per model and small spaces are hard. But just go for the hard if it's the faction you like. Buy a few test models that you're ok with ruining, and practice. You can strip paint to try again. Painting, like all skills that scale with experience and knowledge, is a skill. Repetitions and research from painting guides will work, just have patience.THE DETAILED BITS ARE FUCKING AWESOMETHE MARINES LOOK BLAND UNLESS YOU PLAY SOMETHING LIKE WHITE SCARS AND ADORN THEM WITH SKULLS TO MAKE THEM LOOK COOL AND BARBARIC
>>98541344Nary a layer-line, anon. Is this using some sort of coating sanded down, or do you just have your print layers dialed in?
>>98541571I bought The Light of Eltharion purely as a painting project, does that count?
>>98541571I've been checking every day on amazon and geedubs website for the new plastic custodian dread. No dice.
Do you guys name your generic hero units or special single units?>12 year old Thousand Sons player at my GW named his Mutalist Vortex Beast Cupcake>His 11 year old brother who plays Necrons named his Canoptek Doomstalker Bart
>Looking at JakhalsWhat do Jakhals do instead of regular Cultists? And what would Goremongers do on the table?
>>98541653Wait, is something wrong with that?
>>98541660have you considered reading their rules?
>>98541571I'll only ever buy 40k models on Amazon because it's so much cheaper. Why would I spend $170 on a Combat Patrol when I could get it for $144 instead? The only time I buy shit in store is for minor things like dice or paint because it's cheaper there than Amazon.
>>98541646.06mm layer height on a 0.25 print head, things largely standard besides, high speed pla through an adventurer 5m, twelve hours give or takethe asshole is a fair bit more gnarly but it's well within the bounds of fixing up with some clay and sanding and suchhave just begun giving it a thorough sanding all over, the rest of its bits are on the plate rn
>>98541689
>>98541694Armies that would run dolphin pudsy jelly? EC most likely?
>>98541697In the grim darkness of the far future, dolphins have been extinct for millennia. The in-universe equivalent would be Tyranid Homogaunt Goo™
>>98541562An ogre I hope
>>98541722Probably genestealer hybrid goo instead. Homogaunts don't breed.
This just came outDo people really buy, assemble, paint and base shit and then say "actually, I don't want" and try to resell. He's also selling all the tokens, cards and dossier.
>>98541660Well you see, World Eaters can't use cultists, so the Jakhals are their cultists. Goremongers have stalk or something like that which makes them better at screening ahead or something.
>>98541653coincidentally, my 10 year old son's name is bort.
>>98541732>which makes them better at screening ahead or somethingHow do I screen with them if the enemy is gonna immediately turn to shoot their ass?
>>98541571Hellions, Dakkarig, Dragon Knights. Technically the snaggas too but I will eventually sell them.
>>98541600lol it's you. The second Agents guy.
>>98541736Well the world eaters meta is just guys running at the enemy as fast as they can anyway
>>98541560I think the epic heroes are fine but should have a generic data sheet you can field. My main issue with the characters is they make the world feel smaller. The galaxy is meant to be huge, but all armies have one of like 3 dozen guys in them? That's just nonsense and makes the world feel tiny
>>98541738there's no guarantee that I won't end up splurging on $300 worth of Chaos Marines, but you guys were right, I should start with a small set and see how I like painting them first. maybe actually learn how to play the game before dropping that kind of dough. pizza dough.
>>98541740That's custodes meta. If you do that as world eaters you just get gunned down.t. custodes player
>>98541748World eaters don't have psychic or shooting so they just charge, that's what the army is made for.
This is a dumbass question but I gotta ask it anyway. How do I use the mission deck?
>>98541562THEY DIDN'T GIVE ME MY MODEL 3 WEEKS AGO AND I'M STILL PISSED
when you think about it GW has a lot of holes in Zoats. If only Genestealers can have sex, do Zoats just die out when the hive fleet no longer makes them, or can Zoats fuck?
>>98541757Yeah same...
Remember the Leagues of Votann?
>>98541775Elysians, Praetorians and a new Helbrecht model all confirmed
>What's that? You wanna make a new army? Buy our membership to be able to house more armies on our app!Why the fuck did they do this?
I realized the raiders box basically pays for itself.
>>98541775I do, I just picked up High Kahl's Oath in the hope the writing isn't gonna be shit
>>98541777Have you seen how much storage goes for nowadays?
>>98541782You bought a book with a big obese black woman on the cover AND written by Gav Thorpe thinking it would be good?
>>98541555The list had to be submitted the other day, so it's just the one unless the various Contemptors can be a darkhorse since I want to see how some choices go. God they should really just bake in the Moritoi movement rules into the profiles themselves.Otherwise I can only hope for the event being less sweaty and more friendly since it's the FLGS's first one, most here are a bit heavy on marines of all varieties and so knights remain the one outlier. He's underage and barely allowed in the store, so we'll see.
>>98541785I refuse to believe that's a woman.
>>98541785I never saw the art in that high definition, I thought it was a helmet and I don't know the black library authors by name.Guess I do not have a good couple hours ahead of me
>>98541792I was hoping for that gif. Thank you.
>>98541785It's got to be satire at this point.
I'm not the best at painting eyeballs, how do you guys do it? Is my skin at the very least good? Was thinking of doing a World Eaters army and I really love the gladiator design Jakhals have.
>>98541571Planning to grab something after work. Probably SM scouts or BK infantry
>>98541807Did you contrast paint the skin?
>>98541815Not at all, I used 2 coats of Kislev Flesh, shaded with Reikland Flesh Shade, 2 more coats of Kislev Flesh, and 1 coat of Flayed One Flesh.
>>98541785I think it's just the armour but she also just looks a bit too abbowhat author should I be hoping gets the next Votann novel when they eventually get one a decade
>>98541823I don't recommend shading for skin to beginners.Get bugmans glow, cadian flesh shade and kislev fleshBasecoat bugmans, mix in cadian to go over again, avoiding the deepest recesses. Continue this process going lighter and lighter. Skin colour+wash usually just ends up looking shit imo.
>>98541831Also another beginner tip.Starting from white is just agony unless the model is predominantly white. Go grey/black.
>>98541802You literally cannot satire these people
>>98541775Yeh. Luv me stunty boys.
>>98541728He's basically trying to flip them for a higher value by painting them. He probably never wanted them in the first place. I dunno how lucrative that sort of thing is but I wouldn't be surprised if he does this kind of thing often.
I was reading some Warhammer forum and a guy was complaining that FNPs "slow the game down" and should just be removed and replaced with the mathematical wounds increased and it made me kinda sad that this efficiency is what 40k is now. I always thought FNPs were among the most fluffy things in the game.
>>98541880Faggots like that should go play OPR if they want fast games so much.
>>98541880The worst part is there are so many better things to trim if you wanted to actually speed the game up. Like rerolls. Or datasheets being crammed with abilities. Or having a complex measuring, card drawing and rolling ritual just to start a game. FNPs aren't even close to ubiquitous to think about getting rid of them.
>>98541880He was probably playing a faction without easy access to FNP and was facing an opponent who spammed swarms with 6+ FNP and thought it was stupid
>>98541880>>98541898I guarantee that's the case. He's salty he lost to an army with FNP and is trying to rationalize it.
I know this is rather offtopic, but I find it kinda silly how in 40k, militaries are still fighting with swords and shields when you have highly advanced firearms.The newly issued rifles of the German army (G95), United States army (XM7) and surely many other armies does not even come with a bayonet lug anymore, because people realized melee is literally never a factor in firefights and if you happen to be just a few feet away from someone you can still just shoot him.Somebody carrying a highly advanced laser rifle and a 14th century long sword just clashes imo. I noticed this especially when building my Sororitas. Lightsabers like in Star Wars, sure, Chainswords are cool, but middle ages swords, axes and shields next to an Atom-Pulverizer 9000, just rubs me the wrong way desu.Anyone feels what I'm saying or am I retarded like usual.
>>98541915Power weapons are not just inert hunks of metal. The "power" part is important.
>>98541785>completely unironically puts an objectively ugly, black, obese woman on a coverIt's over isn't it
>>98541915Anon, it's rule of cool. Don't try to bring real world logic into the world of death metal album covers.Swords and shields are rad as shit, that's why they are in 40k. Simple as.
>>98541923Has been over for a long time now.
>>98541915In the case of sororitas and astartes, the swords they use are power swords, which do have a power source and cut through materials like a hot knife through butter.There are also a few cases where deamons and others have a field around them that mitigates ranged weapons, but shoving a knife into them still works since they have to reach in and out of their own field as well. Similar logic behind star wars and star trek shields, you can walk through, but you can't fire a fast moving projectile.So yes it's silly to run at someone with a sword when guns exist, but there's at least a couple nods to it in the lore. The fancy swords are high tech, and shield tech/warp sorcery is such that melee overcomes some ranged barriers.This sort of thing exists in every scifi work though. Realistically speaking, every military space vessel would be a hyperdense sphere with as low profile as possible, yet in star trek and star wars and the like every ship is fancy looking and comes in all kinds of shapes. And if a civilization is capable o near-light speed, then they are also more than capable o interstellar warfare where all combat is simply launching kinetic payloads at each other's homeworlds over distances of millions of lightyears and space warfare would be over holding ground only. So you never escape this sort of anti-realism, it just is what it is. I don't mind it, suspending disbelief for the sake of rule of cool is fine.
>>98541507This.Might get the IH terminator character one day to make a techmarine in terminator armor.
>>98541923Oh the UK's been fucked for a long while now.
>>98541915Given the effective range of the guns and the movement speed of the characters, I'd say that there's nothing silly about carrying a sword. When everyone is running around like sonic the hedgehog and a dude with a jetpack has the same threat radius as your rifle, I'd say a sword is a good choice.
Do you guys but your minis at the GW price or look for other stores that have lower prices?
>>98541929>Swords and shields are rad as shit, that's why they are in 40k. Simple as.
>>98541915Armour has caught up with gunfire in 40k.I have no idea why you are being autistic with that and not "why doesn't the imperium just spam 1 billion drones"
>>98541959>why doesn't the imperium just spam 1 billion drones"Because sending 1 billion people is cheaper
>>98541502Everyone I know plays them. I play them too. They bring flavor to their respective armies.I don't see why you'd be afraid of them getting replaced or unsupported unless it's some black library limited edition nonsense.
>>98541950I bought two sets in store, hoping I'd get "good boy points" from the store managers and that they would recognize me or become my buddies, but they just kept treated me like everyone else, trying to sell me shit. There is literally no reason in my opinion to not get the obligatory 20% discount most online stores offer.
is it normal to feel a little burned out after building and painting an entire 2k army in just a few months? I kinda wanna take a hiatus from the art part of the hobby and just play some games for the next couple of months. ..
>>98541950I exclusively shop at my local 15% off store. Fuck GW stores they are just propaganda centers
>>98541502I am not going to pay 40€ for 1 (one)(a singular)(an individual) miniature
>>98541964No I specifically power through painting so I can play, but I only play 2 armies. Now that I've done that I mostly play and maybe sometimes added a unit and take my time painting those.
>>98541950I've got a GW and FLGS near me, both managed/owned by really awesome blokes, so I try and support both since their legends.
>>98541502If you like the model, then you don't need an excuse.As for them rotating out of being used, that rarely happens. Guys like Eldrad and Asurmen and Guilleman and all this aren't going anywhere. And even if they are rotated into Legends, you can just ask to play with Legends, most people will say yes. Worst case scenario you just use your Titus as a generic captain or whatever. I really wouldn't worry about this.
>>98541968You will not be missed, chud.
>>98541985>buy 40€ hero units or you are a chud!Call me King Chud then, bitch.
>>98541977>If you like the model, then you don't need an excuse.This, love me Be'lakor but will never buy daemons to be able to field him in an army, used my sisters as proxy just to get him on the table once
>>98541880I do find FNP kind of annoying to roll now everything else is fast rolled, but I also get easy access to FNP (BA Sanguinary Priests and Death Company) and mathematically it makes no sense to not take it whenever possible.Too many things have a FNP currently. And games do take too long.
>>98540425Flattering to see my diorama in the OP.Gonna start my collage project this weekend.
>>98541995What kit is that even from
>>98542002It's a bunch of assorted middlehammer manlet bits
>>98542007Was trying to figure what the head was from, it looks goofy so I gotta assume its the old blood claw kit.
>>98541995this is too dark for me bro
>>98542014Oh no, who got doxed.
>>98542011Old blood claws yeah
>>98542014Erobb?
>>98542014Really? Well it's gonna get worse, an ork nob is gonna recreate the American history X curb stomping scene with that space wolf
>>98542022I just hope its not endlessly spammed. Anything with the decalfag is borderline off topic these days.
Tau codex when? cant stand this boring ass book that we got in 10th anymore
>>98541502Named characters should always come with yourdudes generic options.
>>98542063They do, it's called paint
>>98542096painting roboute red doesnt make him a different character with a seperate datasheet
Heh.
>Want to take some of the fun Warboss gear>it's tied to a whole detachment... so I need to take a bunch of Warbosses to make it worth takingThis doesn't feel very orky desu, I thought in prior editions you were limited to one Warboss? Or was Waaagh tied to the Warboss & you were limited to one?The whole idea for my army was high tech MANZ + Dread Mob shooting focused but I feel like there's way too many detachments for the different shooting units now it doesn't really trackShould I just run Bully Boyz instead
>>98542105Why do you need a second datasheet? Do you want to run both together like some sort of WAACfag?
>>98542124It's autism, please understand
>>98541898Probably some based snagga player>these attacks are 3 damage each>ohh hold on lemme roll all of my 6+ FNP separately
>>98541950I either buy my shit from an online shop that does 25% off or just buy second hand on marketplace. If i pre order anything i do it through my lgs
>18 terminator custodes list does well at a tourney>opponent at lgs is now bringing an 18 terminator custodes list for our next game hate metaslaves so much it's unrealat least i won't feel bad about bringing three riptides against him
>>98541268They already do.
>>98542141The funny thing about people copying tourney lists is that they have no idea how its played
I like orks
>>98542141Allarus aren't even the cooler Terminators too, shame Aquilons are somehow still ridiculously overcosted. If anything Valerian was probably the one interesting pick in that list.
>>98542166It's a tale as old as time, unironically if people want to find a good list to copy they should look in the upper midfield.
>>98542166I'm sure the guy's really gonna be wracking his brain trying to figure out the inner machinations of running Adeptus Custodes terminator spam.
>My LGS probably still has that Ork battalion boxset with the discontined buggies>Could flip on ebay to sloppas.Worth a buy or will GW pull me one under and release them again next week?
>>98542161I don't think most people have actually looked at a wych model in like a decade or more. But some people seem to think they all still look like the Daughters of Khaine or the fan art and artwork from before their last redesign. That plastic Leilith model they all make fun of is in fact still the best looking wych cult model now.
>>98542207Yep, exactly. Looking for Wych proxies is part of my daily routine at this point.
>>98542141It's way, way worse with card games. I genuinely stopped playing MTG, One Piece and Riftbound in that order, because since Set 2 or so, if you don't play metadecks you get shat on. And playing meta decks is boring and expensive as shit, I like making my own decks, so yeah. Fuck em.
What do you think an army must have to feel like Forgeworld?
>>98542191This one? Neither of those two vehicles are being discontinued
>>98542227The forge world style of painting. Don't edge highlight.
>>98542191Wow gw are so cruel, that just came out didnt it? Come to think of it the stompa box had 10 lootas in it, what a pack of cunts
>>98542228Is the car not getting scrapped?
>>98542244These are the two GW is no longer selling. The Wartrike and Squiggbuggy are retaining their profiles while the remaining two are becoming a merged profile with a main weapon option.
>>98542247>tfw they squatted the best looking two
I like this painting, Charlie.
>>98542247but why tho
>>98542247I'm gonna be honest I could never recognize any of these.
>>98541933>Has been over for a long time now.
When will we know the points for the new Orks?
>>98542290I guess the Ork list was getting a bit too bloated for GW's liking, at least for an army that isn't space marines
>>98542290the kits flopped hard
>>98542311>>98542312neither of these explanations makes sense
Going to make a tyranid army filled with mostly hormagaunts and a few carnifex
>>98542322Why not?
>>98542327the kits were more popular than ones that survived and the army already lost unit profiles with lootas and burnas to make up for the additional units
>>98542333Are you fucking kidding me? If they made Lootas and Burnas Legends I am so fucking happy I didn't buy into the edition yet. Now I play with a group of casuals so using Legends is usually not an issue but still. I am still rocking a squad of Burnas from the 3rd edition model range and the Lootas since 5th. They are the backbone of my fucking army. It was bad enough they stopped allowing Storm Boyz to come in units of 20. Fuck GW.

>>98542363I think they're probably well executed for the aesthetics that they want but I personally prefer the more cartoonish proportions and poses of old. Others might disagree though.
>>98542124because I dont want to run a primarch, because Im not a Waac-fag.
>>98542293this was truly the death of 40k.game and lorewise. Whenever I hear someone, that didnt play 40k before that, voices an opinion about it, I instantly disregard it.
>>98542399Then why do you want a 'generic' version of the datasheet to use use with the alternate head option? Surely you'd just use your own custom chapter master model
>>98542345>It was bad enough they stopped allowing Storm Boyz to come in units of 203x units of 20 on the new cucked table size that would be too effective.
>>98542411that wasnt the point. the point was using different colors doesnt make a named character a generic character. neither rules nor lorewise.
>>98542417Eh, we used to do that all the time
>>98541534We add them back.
>>98542417>>98542420Yeah warboss in mega armor has been a unit entry without a model forever so people would just use Gaz to represent one all the time.

>>98541995I’m probably going to do a lot more collage model OP’s desu. its cool to have people here’s models be used, and mentally it makes it easier to come up with a theme and question.
>>98542424it wasn't just ghaz, plenty of models for special characters were also used as models for normal characters
>>98542286If it weren't for the imperialis on the head you wouldn't know it's a 40k design

>>98542506I dont understand but i choose to not better myself thank you. I like fun.
>>98542498I really like the concept of a bunch of orks beating the shit out of someone with a bunch of hammers, and it makes the rokkit hammer far more useful, but at the same time, greenies with rokkit launchers are just too kino to pass up.
>>98542514Mainly the shoulder pad. Logans company has a black shoulder pad with a white wolf. I think its a better scheme.
>>98542504Thoughts on the Saturnine pattern?
>>98542522It looks like it's from a different game.
>>98542522God Saturnine were just a complete abortion of a release. I don't know a single HH player who isnt a meta faggot buying those.
>"I'll overwatch with my vindicare assassin."
>>98542516I wish they were a bit more excentric, but armored up boyz with melee weapons is a fun niche that wasn't filled for a long time, with 'ard boyz gone.As for the tankbustas, the old metal ones were the right kind of psycho-weirdos, which is both fun and more logical of a personality for orks which shoot rockets and hit tanks at point blank with "hammers".
>>98542522Personally, I love 'em.What an absolute fucking unit.
>>98542522it irks me that only one terminator pattern has an associated dreadnought pattern, as well as the fact that the terminator pattern is pointlessly larger than other terminators, and in a way that makes it impossible for a pilot to fit in without breaking his legs no less
Remember what they took from you
>>98542522Its cool but i think they should stay in 30k
>>98542536It's justified in the fluff.
>>98542522- It was completely uncessary.- It looks lik a bigger leviathan with funny shoulders- it suffers from the GW disease of shitty wargear options, being limited to weird guns. I like particle shredders and I wish they were a regular weapon family, so I could give my dudes shredder pistols and what not. Also no melee option? On a dreadnought? We already had the deredeo.- We did not need yet another huge model, for fuck sake, I hate this scale creep, power creep, and price creep.- The original rumor of an old melee based dread, that would contrast with the more polished look of contemptors, deredeo and leviathans, like a furribundus remake, would have been much, much better. I'd rather they had given small old angry killer boxes, than a space marine mini-knight.TL;DR: Only good for dreadknight kitbashing.
>>98542538?
>>98542550Old one has more sovl
>>98542547no, it isn't
>>98542538>strapping vehicle parts on themselves>using bolts as earing>Professional, calm look... As he's about to swing a rocket-headed hammer on something, point blank, over his head.I swear modern 40k is made by soulless retards, for soulless retards.
>>98542550I own and like the kit. But the old one is just iconic.
>>98542550>?You would be shot and raped I'd not raise an eyebrow
>>98542522I personally like it. I bought a Saturnine Praetor to use for /my dudes/ chapter master. It's gonna be a big project, hopefully I still like the idea by the end
>>98542570Might get a saturnine praetor to make a space wolves character at some point
>>98542587I'm already planning on using Fafnir with all his iconography stripped off as my CaptainI am among the kings of bad ideas
>>98542597Listen, anon. I bought a box of 20 mk3 marines with the intention of removing all the trim on the arms and legs.I will not judge you.
>>98542499Being able to remove the big pot belly on it and having the regular sarcophagus underneath exposed was a good touch for it.
>>98542499What makes it good?
>>98542587Hope you can redeem the yiffs somewhat
>>98542620My first SW project is still in boxes; I've got some terminators, SW & regular, with the intent on making modern reimagining of the old metal wolfguard terminators. I still have to grab logan grimnar to convert him into the leader since he has a very similar pelt.Space wolves got a bad rep, and while I could see a chapter leaning harder on vikings/celts, I'm more interested in an oldschool barbarian look, I like patterns like picrel.
I finished another model and it looks like ass
>>98542628Very nice, I just airbrushed up the scouts. I'm also a big fan of the older sculpts. I have the metal rune priest in power armour somewhere but I can't remember where I put it.
For my collage project should i go with normal ork attire or make him look more accurate to the scene the diorama is inspired from
>>98542641I'd go normal, unless you got a savage orc from fantasy lying around.
>>98542643I'd use one as a base but I'm pretty competent with green stuff too. Would be a mix of both.
>>98542641Both: take inspiration from the original and make it orky. Give him a ridiculous tattoo, and some garrish underwear, into which you can stuff a slugga in the back.for his face? The usual shit eating grin of happy, malicious orkBonus point if you can have a snotling or gretching shocked, half-covering his face (but still taking a peek through his fingers)
>take battlewagon (gunwagon doesn't have firing deck>Put tankbustas and big mek with targeting gizmos inside>You now have 6 rokkit launchas with Hunter profiles (3a each, s12 ap-2 d3) able to hit on 4s ignoring cover with sustained hits 1>Can keep the wagon riled up all game if you throw a Warboss (can even have him with his own unit of breakas, Boyz, or nobz) with boss boomer insideNow dis is how I tankbusta.
>>98542658Even further>Place mek nearby>Battlewagon now has +1 to hit, meaning you're hitting on 3s
>>98542656I mean the ork glyph for "orky" is pretty much the same
>>98542494I've seen pictures of a conversion kit around that made the Redemptor's armour panels a bit more boxy-looking, which seems to alleviate the look somewhat. And most of the Heresy dreads were FW models, so they still have a bit of Midhammer to them even with newer sculpts.>>98542522Functionally kind of redundant and comes off as someone compensating for having a green-eyed monster in the Telemon, of which is actually good. The giga nigga has like ten pieces per foot and a lot of detail underneath those pauldrons as well on top of magnet holes, so I imagine someone liked designing it at least.>>98542525Saturnine Dreads cost way too much for what they do, you'd be better with rifleman Contemptors, Deredeos, or just simply a tank, of which the Kratos is the metafag pick. The termies at least got pretty nasty with the Word Bearers variant though. Still, a pity these aren't eligible for Legends rules here, released past the arbitrary cutoff.

>>98542926they're basically just psycho warriors, kidnapping little boys from planets they drive by
I thought you retards wanted the game to be smaller
>>98542891I don't understand this is just a regular GK list?
>>98542926They don't have a home world because no one likes them. They're a fleet based chapter that kidnaps children.
>looking at datasheet for lieutenants>RAW lieutenants with bolt pistols and power swords are no longer legal>no bolt rifle either, it's just a bolter
>>98542940My armageddon captain, but all my characters look like they were painted by someone with special needs
>>98543085I don't understand why the fuck they shat out so many nearly identical lieutenants. If it wasn't for MkX at least we'd have gotten some variety, like they did with the old finecast captains, but here it's just bizarre.Wish I had grabbed the DA guy still
>>98543092marines need a lieutenant for every primaris armor varient and for every chapter otherwise the paypigs wil riot. it's a given the marine range will always be bloated with redundent nonesense but it will never be enough for marinebabbies.
>>98543092they ask prospective new hires to make test models for free and then reserve the rights to sell those models anyway
>>98543085They really have to eventually undo this stupid approach to wargear that always has these specific restrictions that come across as so autistically arbitrary
>>98542847If the heresy books ended after Galaxy in Flames it would have gone down as peak fiction and not a manchild daycare with capeslop interludes
>>98543102They don't even have a gravis lieutenant iirc>>98543105>Make me a new marine>here is what used to be timmy's first kitbash but as a standalone model>perfectMaybe the logic is that they want every new player (since most players today started in the last decade) to get one, so they are the most basic "special" models.
Orks have much too much focus on light fast vehicles and not nearly enough focus on fuck-off big-ass scrap-tanks.Nothing screamy orkiness more than a stupid big heavy tank with a jawlike prow and a cannon that looks like it flattens buildings
>>98543127I'd say one day surely GW will bring back FW designs, but 100% they will manage to ruin it, so I'll settle for a STL or just kitbashing the thing with some plasticard
just me or is the necron FAQ really bad?>haha yeah monolith teleport is an ingress move, you gotta deploy 8" away despite it also saying "and not in engagement range" which would be impossible>haha yeah the hyperphasic recall stratagem that teleports you to a monolith if you get shot? yeah we didn't FAQ it so thats not an ingress move, deploy in your opponents face>necron overlord free stratagem ability? yeah we didn't touch it despite changing all the other free statagem abilities in the gamewhat were they smoking?
>>98543127I agree.I want to see towering mobile scrap fortresses that fight each other in the desert over da best loot
>>98542293Just remember, lore cannot enter your games unless you let them>t. faggot still playing 40k like Gathering Storm never happened
>>98543147you'd have to refuse playing with all marinefags
>>98543106The have to provide rules for models they make, and can't for models they don't. Legally it would open them up to copyright infringing opportunists.
>>98543175Nah dumb excuse. There's no legal reason there'd be any problem with letting you stick a power sword on a hero that you took from an intercessor sprue.
>>98543175>Make basic kit with all of the optionsOR>Make basic kit with basic options>sell upgrade kit with extra optionsThey are just selling kits as standalone products and the rules follow that template. It's utter laziness and people are buying it, figuratively and literally.
>>98543106There used to be t his system that worked great, it was like some kind of wargear system with a list of stuff that they could just have based on what they were. Ah man, guess the technology is lost for that one.
Who's more retarded? The GW rules department or the GW modeling department?
>>98542988Who is complaining?
GSC bros will we get a new unit or two this edition? I keep hearing these rumours of a named character as we can only have access to them through one detachment
>>98542471How the fuck did that ork miss from so close?
Why does the existance of the Iron hands make imperial fist players seethe so hard?Ive noticed this on more than one occasion that the yellow crybabies seethe about the 10th legion.
>>98543175not true, they make rules for models they dont sell in specialist games
>>98543223>I keep hearing these rumours of a named characterGod forbid but I'd be down for a new infantry unit doing its niche + Thermite Assault Drill from HH to make its way into GSC roster. Souping up stuff guard WITHOUT needing a detachment would also be nice.
>>98543237There are imperial fists players? AND iron hands players?
Wippy Bippy. Should be done this weekend or very early next week.
>>98543221Modeling department.The rules are lazy and boring, feels like some dude winging it and failing at it becaue he's just clueless.The modeling department on the other hand is proper retarded, as in making counter-productive stupid decisions that give normal people aneurysms.Termiantors are made in a way they can be easily customizable. This is not used outside of swapping torsos and the usual bits (arms & heads).It'd be extremely easy to make primaris marine torsos interchangeable, so would it be for the chins. They didn't think of the first and the second isn't even consistent in the same kit.That, is proper retardation.
>>98543244> GW investor meeting when they get told that people play space marines other than ultramarines.
>>98543197>Make basic kit with basic options>sell upgrade kit with extra optionsThey literally do this in the Horus Heresy too. Its genuinely just laziness.

You need to buy 2 other weapons.>Also, we didn't design heavy weapons to use the arms in the box nor put extra arms in the kit, so here are shitty generic arms>Oh, you want melee weapons? Here are 10 chainsword, 12 bolt pistols, and everything else in small amount>And of course, 48 generic arms>which aren't even of the same design as the other generic arms>AND some bare heads on topAnyone who doesn't hate GW is a humongous retard. Even the staff at my local warhammer store shit on GW.
hm I think I will fail my incubi charges today
>>98543237Nobody seethes about Iron Hands because nobody thinks about them ever. They only come up in competitions for the most forgotten Space Marine factions where they usually lose to White Scars. So they're not even the #1 faction at being the most forgotten.
>>98541672> open box replaced with nonsenseYou're playing roulette. You can get the same discounts from online stores
>>98543281no just, it's such a lazy and confusing FAQsurely i'm not missing something here?why is teleporting a unit to a monolith an ingress move, but teleporting a unit to a monolith via a statagem isnt???
>>98543289Daring today aren't we? Don't forget to whiff all your Dark Lance shots and lose a key unit to a random overwatch too while you're at it.
>>98543239then why can't I use Celeborn in armour any more? they stopped making the model, rules disappeared. give him back.
>>98543278Is Darren doing the Grey Knights or the Dark Eldar this edition? Which one gets the good model updates?
>>98543283Fair enough on the heavy weapons sprue but there is literally nothing wrong with the special weapons sprue.They've even released a combi weapon sprue which just has every combi weapon which is nice.They even come with 1 handed variants of every combi weapon for your centurions.
>>98543278Who's Darren?
>>98543134>Expecting the rules team to meaningfully balance their special little guys
>>98543114they dont even have a gravis leautenant (yet). give it time, it will happen.
>>98543312Long time GW hobbyist and current lead designer on the 40k modelling team I think. Used to have a personal YouTube channel featuring his painting but I think GW made him nuke a lot of it when he got hired. Only model I remember him taking direct credit for more recently was Vashtor.
>>98543307>there is literally nothing wrong with the special weapons sprueIf I want to get 10 meltaguns and 10 flamers, I shouldn't have to buy 40 other weapons.The practice is simple:>I want to get A>To get A I need to buy the box which has A and B>Now that I'm done with A, I have B leftover>So to use B, I have to buy C>I should have just paid for A, but instead I end up paying for A, B, and maybe even C.The above is even worse in HH because the norm is 3k points, so you'll have a ton of leftovers if you don't make express use of everything. (So if you buy a special weapon pack, you build 6 different special weapon squads)There is nothing preventing GW from releasing a blister with 10 flamers. Some weapons came that way, even basic bolter patterns.But to be fair, I wouldn't be opposed to the old system since we're talking 40k, because if I needed a plasmagun, I at least got one in my tactical squad. The only issue came with units like devastators, because then I'd need to buy 2 for a full loadout. But that's it. Don't have this problem anywhere, and I can always use the extra devastator bodies as more tacticals or whatever, it was easy as pie to make a tactical into an officer, or an assault marine, or a devastator.That's what's so stupid, GW created problems, and then added more problems to "fix" the first problems.
>>98543324>Complaining about a box coming with more bits.
>>98543293idk sound like your having a lil seethie right now
>>98543329>Strawman
>>98543324>If I want to get 10 meltaguns and 10 flamers, I shouldn't have to buy 40 other weapons.Anon they're packaged like that because its cheaper for GW to make 1 sprue with everything than 6 sprues with 1 thing each.Those sprues all need their own molds and molds are expensive. If GW makes 6 molds that each make 10 of a single special weapon but no one wants flamers or whatever them they've wasted a shitload of money and their finite warehouse space for nothing.Sticking all the guns in one box means they don't have to worry about that. Everyone who wants any special weapon will buy a box.
>>98543237it's because IFfags wish they were iron warriors, so they're also envious of the iron hands' focus on prosthetics
>>98543339>Anon they're packaged like that because its cheaper for GW to make 1 sprue with everything than 6 sprues with 1 thing each.No shit, Sherlock, that's the point: it's better for them, not for the customer.>molds are expensiveI'm tired of you asswipes sucking GW for years now about how molds are expensive when they're shitting out FOMO characters and other bullshit like 6mm HH.I love /40kg/, where saying that GW is a greedy lazy company, you get replied that "yes they are, but you're stupid."
>>98543353>"why won't this company make shit easy for me.">its way cheaper for them to keep doing what they're doing.>"I already know that retard."What the fuck were you expecting anon.
>>98543368>WhyI never asked why, nigger. But since you're an actual shitstain you naturally assume people are dumber than you or clueless, rahter than actually engaging in the conversation.>What the fuck were you expecting anon.for you to not be a retard/shitposter. But where do you think we are?

>>98543392It exists because it is an obligation to the marine identity, but not their playstyle. Deepstrike isn't as rare or as inconsistent as it used to be.
>>98543392Buy the HH model because you like drop pods, and then go play with better rules.
>>98543392>model update even though it was unnecessarythe old ones sucked to put together.
>>98543401They sure ficking did. If the new ones fixed the stupid alignment issues on the doors then they're well worth it. Shame they don't open and close freely anymore though.
>>98543396Anon the new 30k rules also killed drop pods. It's like they do it on purpose.>>98543395You'd think something so relevant to their identity would be designed to be part of their playstyle too. Necrons having reanimation protocols are part of their identity and also a fundamental part of their playstyle.>>98543401Like every other vehicle kit of the time but the new ones are worse by pure virtue of not being able to close to store and transport them.
>>98543401Skill issue
>>98543392>looks almost identical>can only have doors open>worst sculpted ground you've seen>still sell the oldwhat were they thinking
>>98543407>30k rulesI said play with better rules, not play HH. If you know the HH rules suck, why would you think of HH?
>>98542820>ppmDon't say that too loud you might scare GW writers.
>>98542873That's a good thing. Still insane that they made the board smaller, the terrain denser and disconunted every single model so that armies were bigger in general. Shit is absolutely crowded.
>>98543416Because the 30k rules don't suck, they just killed drop pods. Even in their attempt at killing them they are way more useful in 30k than in current 40k because you can drop them within 3" of the enemy.
>>98543417Sorry. I meant to say>5 power level per model>6 power level per model
>>98543392It's too impractical to land a big pod and passengers on the board turns 2-3. You're paying 60 points for a worse version of something jump packs, terminators and reivers do for free.3" deep strikes and battleshock/mortals to units within 12" might help.
>>98543414That there are people who want an easy to build drop pod. There are people who build WW1 destroyers, 16th century gallions, WW2 tanks. Kits that ask you to fiddle with brass and etchings to get a good result, folks with entire train set-ups made to look as photo-realistic as possible, gluing tiny leaves on tiny paths under tiny trees.But 40k kiddies? God forbid the kit has features. It should come in one piece, pre-painted, because who cares about nerd shit like "hobbying", we want to spend 6 hours throwing buckets of dice and uno-reversing the other guy before going home since we couldn't even get to the end of round 3.
>>98542795>10x Nobz – kombi-rokkits, 2x skorchasUnless they added wargear costs to every weapon upgrade, I can't imagine this being what people will actually run seeing the wargear list is written to enforce kill team schizo loadouts. Like, this is a logical loadout, the rules are just not written so you take this.
>>98543411nomodels
Just got back into painting minis after over a decade of not touching this hobby. Decided to go with Black Templars. Pic is progress on the base. Do any of you friendly anons know of any good guides on applying a good wash to layer black templar pauldrons? I just cant get the edges of white to mix well with the black trim. It looks DOG ASS even with Agrax Earthshade between them.
>>98543424>the drop pod rules don't suck, the drop pod rules just suck.Are you okay, anon?
>>98543426>per modelThey are trembling with fear, anon.>>98543432>That there are people who want an easy to build drop pod.Who? Again, the rules are so dogshit no one has played drop pods since Skyhammer in 7th. the only appeal of the drop pod is that it was a cool kit for autists.
>>98543436>wash... pauldronsno
>>98543435>Drop pod too hard :'C>Git gud>I bet the nomodels did this111!1Emotional control issue
>>98543434Also I find it funny that they are running 20 nobz in a list when they will undoubtedly sell them in boxes of 5 for a kidney.
>>98543440>Who?-> >>98543401 & >>98543403
>>98543392Personally I'd rather them be niche than autotakes
>>98543451People complaining about the old kit aren't people that are gonna buy the new one. I can assure you neither of them got the new pods because they fucking suck as models and the rules fucking suck so no one wants them as cheap game pieces either.
>>98543454I'd rather them be autotakes than be the only person I've seen using them (1 because more is just throwing the game for no reason) in the last 10 years.
Personally I prefer 30k marines because I like my marines full of tubes and cables.
>>98543474>Heresy game>Heresy armor last to be released>Still not out after 4 years since 2.0Mk5 never
>>98543494Just because it's nicknamed heresy pattern doesn't mean it was ever the most common or representative of the time.
>>98543501Not the point
>>98543503Yes the point. Every other pattern except corvus had priority and corvus gets bonus points for being the original.
>>98543436Easiest thing to do is start the pauldrons with an off white like ushabti, do your shade wash, and then drybrush a brighter white over it.
If bloodaxes are red, how come they don't go faster?
>>98543518>Yes the pointNo?? MkV is not just emblematic but also representative of the heresy, that's why it's named heresy too.Not only are you disregarding that fact, but then you're also pulling shit about what armor was the most common or representative. At least back up your bullshit.
>>98543524They're smarter than the other orks because the think faster, duh.
I am stuck in marine purgatory.
>>98543545Again, not only is it the least common pattern even during the heresy, it's not really important to the conflict itself. It's perfectly logical that it's getting made the last because every other pattern had more relevance.
>>98543114Kitbashes are retard-tier expensive to get all the bits you want, easier to have Chapter: CAPTAIN models that people can use>22.50Damn this is from like 2019 is't it.
>>98543569Paint up a few purgators while you're there.
>cool leader model that cost 20 bucks>is 110 dollars OOP on ebayIt's not worth itEven if I was a retarded paypig with infinite cash it wouldn't be worth itI would be better off just bitbashingFucking hate ebay scalpers, not simply for the scalping but of how nonsensical it is.
>>98543244valrak exists.
>>98543569https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VHhND-BkWdk
>>98543588>least commonSays who? Pull out the source.>Not really important to the conflict>the one mark of armor made because of the extreme losses and logistic problems caused by, well, the heresy.>not really important(you)
>>98543602>its not worth it because I say so!not how it works, kiddo
>>98543608banger
>>98543589Kitbashes are only expensive because there's two dozen kits with 2 fun bits, instead of 6, maybe 7 with a proper handful of good parts.
>>98541959>why doesn't the imperium just spam 1 billion drones1: no abominable intelligences. So you need a human drone pilot. So it's quicker to just send a human with a gun2: They don't understand their own tech so they can't easily scale up production of drones
>>98537791>nooo my army with armywide advance and charge that is known for bad shooting high toughness and good melee is ONLY fantastic at shooting infantry, not anti-tank shootingwhy are orkfags like this
>>98543629B-But muh baby brains in drones and muh human operator!!!
>>98541915It's almost as if 40k is space fantasy with factions driven by ideology instead of 21st century military logic.
I got a Dawn of War box for cheap but I don't even play Muhrines. Do I just sell it or just paint the models as a custom chapter. I'm thinking of collecting CSM, maybe do a conversion. Chaplain can become a Dark Apostle, though I'll need two additional cultists for that. Judiciar can lose the Hourglass and swap for a head, and be a master of executions.
>>98543243>Souping up stuff guard WITHOUT needing a detachment would also be nice.LOGICALLY if GSC can use Patriarch and Purestrain without Final Day, they should also be able to use Brood Brothers and low-tier IG equipment (with BB headswaps) or the GSC Leman Russ without the BB detachment.The BB detachment literally allows them to use fucking Baneblades lol.
>>98543629>>98543637>why not drones>because drones are haramit's that simple.
>>98541018Tint the canopy with transparent paint. You should be able to find guides on youtube.
>>98543642why'd yah bother getting it yah dingus?
>>98543615It's not worth it because no one is gonna buy it. Like it'll sit there for years while they "I know what I got" it, but no one's gonna buy. And that's why ebay is fucking retarded. In a normal market you want to sell the products you have so you adjust the price until you find a buyer. You're not gonna find a buyer like that, but hey do whatever.
>>98541255Given that they just killed the Shokkjump Dragsta there's a good bet they're going out of their way to not have Precision in ork army lists.
>>98543642Oh so what you wanna do is sit on the box a few months to when they're sold out again, because that's the point where the price of of the Judiciar will be like 70 bucks on ebay instead of 25 like it is right now. The special characters ranging from 50-70 and then the less special ones about 40-50 for 3, you can get like 250 bucks from the box from retards by not dumping all the models now when they're cheap.
i like tau 'w'
>>98543649Impulse buy because it was cheap at 49 dollars and GW sells them for like 130 bucks.
>>98543660>Sand camo>reddish brown>white>blue skinSuch a good fucking colorscheme
>>98543643I think in 7th or 8th Edition, GSC had a Leman Russ in its roster as a native unit. It was Leman Russ + Upgrade Sprue.>>98543649It was for 29 Yuropoors only for lots of models, so I just did. I'm a GSC player myself and thought they'd be a nice hobby project. But now that I'm thinking of getting a few CSM stuff, I'm not sure what to do with them. I guess I can still paint them and use them in Boarding Actions.
>>98541856Gotta love how soundly people rejected the Greater Thurian League being the default Votann scheme.
>>98543660
>>98543660That sounds like socialism, citizen.
>>98543629They're allowed to have drones, even ones without people brains.
>>98543673I have this leman russ
tau r cool....,,,,,,
I don't know if my confederate guard are going to work out the way I wantThe gray I had chosen for the armor panels is too weak vs. the brown of the fatigues so it all washes togetherI'll finish the paintjob with shading and edge highlights to see if I can salvage it, but it's not promising so farIs there anything I can do beyond highlights/edging to make complementary/similar colors sit next to each other on a model and still stand out against each other? That's the only Idea I can come up with.Also fuck Army Painter grays, they're all absurdly watery and need like 4 coats to actually cover an area
>>98543764do you have a third more colorful hue anywhere for them to play against?
>>98543764>Confederate>GuardOdd choice. How are you doing droid armies with humans?
>>98543660Early tau was peak tau. Then they went from >highly trained mechanized infantry with mech supportto>haha mech spam
>>98543785You already got BTFO on this claim once and started spamming the whole thread down, you really wanna do it again?
>>98543775Any color I have on-hand is either an olive drab from US Bolt Action minis, or a dark red/burgundy/AP Mulled Berry from painting SoB. I figure the olive drab is too samey and the reds feel like they clash too much.Maybe a teal color would go well? Color theory and so on.>>98543783KekWrong Confederate, I'm basing them on the uniforms and stylings of US Civil War Confederates, "butternut" fatigues/gray armor was the original plan. Lots of infantry holding the line and daring (mechanized) cavalry charges to break our foes.
>tfw we will see T10 plague marines during our lifetime
>>98543785i think that a crisis suit & co. concentration was always implied to be the height of what they can muster in the way of a max-lethality point force, it's what i'm up to even if an infantry complement is included in the projectfireblade breacherfishes exist and they're frankly a little nuts and come off as the hardest a fire warrior can go in the mechanized infantry mode of things
>Warhammer World itself allows unpainted miniatures on the tables for casual games nowAbsolutely disgusting tbqh
Someone make the new thread.
>>98543660me too :)
>>98543764>Also fuck Army Painter grays, they're all absurdly wateryThat's unusual, AP paints are made thicker than other brands and are loaded with extra white pigment for opacity. I've got Deep Grey and it's way thicker than all the AK greys I use (reddish, deep sea, intermediate blue, rubber black) and needs fewer coats over black, light grey and brown primers.
>>98543764Like with mordians you can paint the metallic parts in metal or bronze.
>>98543127I'm working on the same one
>>98543789What are you talking about lol
>>98543822I started with Uniform Grey over a black primer, and I'm still seeing black in the middle of big panels after 2 coats. It feels extremely watery, but I might have done it to myself by over-wetting my wet palette as well. That's probably the actual problem.AK Reddish Grey was thin, but was a solid color by 2 coats in, I'm not having that with AP Uniform Grey, despite putting them both in the same wet palette.>>98543829Bronze is a good idea, I'll do a test with a bronze and another with a brass to see which I prefer. I think bronze might be too close to my brown for buckles, but it might work for weapon fittings and ornaments on the armor.Thanks anon
>>98543223Yes, GSC kill team coming.
>>98543819Sauce? Ai has killed reverse image searching and even saucenao is just giving me that fucking reddit post.
>>98543642I really wanted these since I found out there was stat sheets for two of them but apparently they're not in 11th now
>>98543915are you dumb
>>98543921very
>>98543891It's also ai.
>>98543923Obviously but its acceptably hot, is there more?
>>98543921Oh I meant Chaplain Kastiel and Judiciar Xacharius since I painted my guys as blood ravens
>>98543764I still believe in your space southerners, anon
>>98543969I'm keeping the dream of Dicksie alive, just in the teething phase of deciding how I'm painting them. Misspelling intentional, that's my homebrew planet name. I liked when 40k planets were obvious with their inspiration, so I'm keeping with the tradition.I'm thinking I'll try adding a third color as an accent (beyond leather for straps/boots and khaki for gaiters), and if that doesn't work I'll redo the gray in a darker shade.If I decide to add Kasrkins to my list I'm painting them up as Zouaves.
>>98544005>3rd colorCould always got with the good ol' mordian side pant stripe. A yellow/white/red could do.Godspeed anon, godspeed.
>>98543819Which orifice of hers does she use for the extraction
>>98544022I forgot I was planning to do thatThanks for the reminder
>>98544042I gotchu homie
Someone cookin up a nubread?I wanna talk Tau’rkey
>>98543812Oh no thats terrible how will this affect the economy
>>98543812Its just casual games bruh relax
>>98543237>Ive noticedI've not. Not around here in any case. You may have imagined it.
>>98543812Tourist-kun, games at Nottingham never REQUIRED armies to be painted, it's just where the battle ready rule was enforced the strictest
wheres my new thread?
>>98544214I'm not making it this time. You make it. Hold the blackjack and hookers though. I've had enough of those.
Fine, I'll bake some bread for you guys.Don't do anything
