Most likely impossible really or I am just not smart enough to think of something.

For me this would be positive change off the top of my head:
Retcon the "galaxy edge regions" like the ghoul stars and halo starzones etc. to be much larger regions than they are to act as "truly unknown regions" compared to the areas of the galaxy. We'll say that the Imperium of Man never got that far, and they'll be the "chaos wastes space" of Warhammer 40k. With "eyes of the storm" here and there. An even more "I do what I want" but without warp stuff.

Not bad for a first model. Varnish to "archive" it as you progress in this miniature painting hobby.
In the future I'd recommend some weathering to the vehicles. Knights included.
Here's a good one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WGVj6IEyj_E

9:02 is when the weathering starts in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Az84Qs0cn5U
Generally a piece of sponge will be very helpful in creating chipping effects if one wants to solely stick with acrylics for weathering vehicles.

This might help a lot even if it isn't about weathering. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SqOdqeiUxg4
Duncan Rhodes' tutorials are really good. Even when he's shilling his paints.

One more thing. I just remembered. Watering down a rusty orange brown color to an "orange milk" consistency then watering it a little more can make it into a good "rust wash" if you want to avoid rust effect paints on a budget.
There's probably more for me to remember, but I'm tired right now.

I've been trying to come up with a decent Sisters color scheme but they just don't look good if you stray too far from the default colors. Pretty much every alternate color scheme you see online is just black armor with a different colored robe.

Retcon the 13 Black Crusades as being ran individually by separate chaos lords over the millennia, Abaddon's being the most recent and successful. This does a few things:
>makes Abby not look like a complete fucking retard who needs 13 attempts to crack one planet
>gives GW the excuse to expand on the setting by making models and fluff for the other lords/warbands that have tried to take Cadia over the centuries, and the generals of the Imperium who stood against them

Are Imperial guard modellers the ones with the highest percentage of 3D printing rates? I know that space marine modellers would have a larger number of 3D printers, but I don't think that collective would be as large a percent of the space marine following than the guard would have a higher percent of 3D printer users in their following.

NTA but I've done worse so I can't judge people for buying the GW handle. The older one looks better though.
I bought the gameenvy hobby holder without the "bar handle" part. It wasn't for me, but the idea of bottlecap based painting handles is pretty novel to me.
There's already Chinese copies on aliexpress now, some on Amazon. But I don't know if the modular part will work as pieces may break sooner.

Hopefully there will be a good copy of the original Citadel painting handle for those who missed out on them.

I own both and I honestly prefer the slim design of the new one.

uhhhh, so you aren't supposed to just hold your model with your fingers?
>>
>>98875604
You can hold the model with your fingers. There are just handles meant to make the process better around the concept of ergonomics.

You can use sticky tack and a cork from a wine bottle as an easy DIY handle if you want. For many that's enough.

You mean these?
One of my LGSs is selling 3d printed versions but the clamp is achieved with shitty rubber bands.
I'm glad I managed to get a few of these before they discontinued them in favor of the new skinny ones. I really don't like the grip profile on the new ones.
>>
>>98875586
Sounds too fun and interesting for James Workshop or any of the hacks at BL to not fuck up. I remember that one interview where ADB was seething over sons of Horus warbands that don't want to follow Abaddon or join the Black Legion which is why there isn't much lore on the Wolves of Horus or True sons.
>>
>>98875620
>You mean these?
Yeah I mean those. I had a phase of trying out different handles then ended up settling on a DIY one. Was pretty dumb looking back that all the money spent when the materials were always here. I did buy some grip tape for the handles later. But it was fine before those.

>One of my LGSs is selling 3d printed versions but the clamp is achieved with shitty rubber bands.
Pretty smart of them too if I'm being honest.
>>
>>98875593
I made my own with a spring and a old plastic card
>>
>>98875604
I mean you can grip it from the base or even the model itself while painting if you know what you're doing, the handles and stuff mostly exist for ergonomics. I used to just stick some blue tac on a wine cork and put minis on that while I painted before I just stopped giving a fuck and held them by the base.

Necrons and Tyranids are both empire-ending threats that can realistically defeat the Imperium. They are both happening at the same time.
Way back in 30k we had the Rangdan Xenocides which were similarly catastrophic.
I like the idea that the Imperium has regularly been dealing with apocalyptic threats and while Nids/Crons are nasty, they're ultimately no worse than any of the other massive xenos forces that the imperium has to deal with every few centuries. There should be a long history of defeated xenos mega-threats and the imperium is still standing.
