KINDKOLOSSALKUSTODESKNOCKERS
Anyone wants to go on this base? Show me some distinctive looking helmets.
>>98929459I said it a while back: Why not "Caring, Colossal, Custodes Cleavage?"
>>98929455>Discover dropper bottle paints>Like fucking magicFuck GW for not putting their shit into them, life be much easier.Im going to the cafe senpai, what do you guys want?
how powerful is a custodes in the lore?
>>98929459Kinda pathetic. Sorry your mother was a bitch, but don't be a loser.
>>98929478Horus Heresy Mk5 and Mk7
Let Chaos Idols take this thread!
>>98929462Could do a terminator sergeant's helmet
>>98929487Or a retro orange helmet from <my dudes> Antares Crusade
>>98929481About 12.5 guardsmen per
>>98929462space wolf captain helm
>>98929478>Im going to the cafe senpai, what do you guys want?A large black coffee, please.A guarantee that 3D printers will not be enshittified so I can print WH40k minis.And for you to somehow get AK interactive to expand their metallic acrylic line and to get Vallejo to fix their acrylic bubble paint problem if it is persisting.
>>98929474Honestly speaking the sentence was a rush job, also I'm in too deep now to change it. Feck
>>98929481Weaker than an ogryn but stronger than an ambot
>>98929497Lol are you the powerscaling guy with the the custodes conversion chart for all the factions in 40K?
>>9892948130 custodes per harlequin
>>98929462Its cool idea but my guys never lose so it wouldn't be canon.
How marines fit in tank if so big?
>>98929529>Anon thinks Chaos Space marines are above stolen valor
>>98929510>guarantee that 3D printers will not be enshittified so I can print WH40k minisStop printing with wifi or a cloud connectionIf the printer isn't connected to the internet you can simply flash open source firmware on it and you now own your printer; you just lose your warranty.If you're American, it's anti-gun groups that are funding the 3d printer bans and mandates on banning certain types of files, not overzealous IP defending media companies. If you want to keep printers as they are now, support pro-gun legal action groups and lobbying because that's the actual push. IP protection in media is just an easy scapegoat side effect to get more donos from those who'd like that and to distract those who oppose it.>>98929517No, I just did the math based on the post from last thread300 guardsmen24 custodes300/24=12.5 perI think powerscaling is stupid and a waste of time in most cases because there is no objective metric so it's just who wanks off their guy harder
Now that there's both male and female custodes, do you think they fuck each other sometimes?
>>98929462>Show me some distinctive looking helmets.look at this silly goober. Painted that guy a million years ago as test scheme.
>>98929539Sick
>>98929535They're all just Barbie and Ken dolls down there.
>>98929533>Stop printing with wifi or a cloud connectionI have a Photon mono 4 Ultra so I think I already messed up.>spoilerI am worse than an American. I am a Leaf. So it will come to hurt me. I hope somehow 3D printers won't be affected so I can print Warhammer scans/proxies in peace. But we can't have even a crumb of what we want can we?
>>98929539nta but that might be the most original paintcheme I've seen. Never thought of a dual dual color scheme split like that
>>98929539Maybe I should finally refurbish my old tacs...
>>98929581It looks like he turned a tau into jelly and smeared it inside his thighs
>>98929462>Anyone wants to go on this base?assuming you have friends, and assuming they play 40k, use your friend's dudes
>>98929708Thats less fun than using one of the thread's dudes
REMINDERonly 300 solar auxilia took out 24 custodes, killing 7
>>98929733i think it isbut if you want to do it about the thread dude put a chaos warlord or similar on a pile of heads from the thread's dudes, so you actually include the thread
>>98929737lmao where is this from?
>>98929744The new 30k journal. A stupid custodes commander charges a dug in solar auxilia regiment on jetbikes over open ground
Talk me out of space wolves
>>98929754looks stupid
>>98929754they're cool be because of mentally ill people that can't think of animals without thinking about sex you will always be branded
>>98929754You might get mistaken for someone who's permanently banned
>>98929754that's not a space wolf
What I don't get is why custodes have bolters at all instead of everyone having rayguns if they're meant to be the best evar and all personally made by teh emprah
>>98929754>Talk me out of space wolvesThey have only a few genuinely good sculpts and a host of mid to horrid ones.
Today I will work on my acolytes
>>98929754This is someone making a mockery of the Wolves not paying any sort of proper homage to them, also the Wolf looks way to effeminate.
was it 2nd or 3rd edition that had space wolves as the main protag army and orks as the antagonist?also they should have been renamed as Sons of Fenris or something like thatno one would take carcharodons seriously if they were still named space sharks
>>98929754It's well painted but why is he dressed in a bath robe and sandals while walking in middle of snow?
>>98929787hes dressed like your standard monk with a heating pauldron. Also if your cock and balls were of any commendable size, the weather would not hinder your flesh.
>>98929786Nobody takes Carcharodons seriously
>>98929744this bookcustodes are depicted as stubbornly retarded>get shot at by a small dug in force>rather than ignore it (as its not your objective) they turn around and waste 5 hours of time etc because of blood spilt or whatever>get told by the solar auxilia with them that walking into the fortress is obviously a trap, proceed to ignore them because "lol why should I listen to a human?" move deeper into the fortress and get blown up because it was, obviously, a trap>run out of ammo in 15 minutes
>>98929754Brother belial is out adventuring again I see
>>98929805good to see custodes getting some proper characterization
gw could have avoided a lot of the primaris drama if the helmet didn't look like total shit compared to the iconic kino look of the mk vii
>>98929805and they wonder why they were not given the great crusade to lead
>>98929810>>98929818they were also led by a woman
>>98929805I don't understand why GW is so keen on writing custodes as these completely arrogant retards when their fluff details them to be above such petty things due to their mental conditioning.It's even weirder when custodes fluff describes them to be the great at diplomacy and just ending battles without needing to fire a single bullet through words alone.And then GW and its writers characterize most if not all them as basically autistic assholes who seemingly can't at all talk normally to people, and even get their jimmies rustled when regular humans get confused why the golden übermensch gives out non-sensical orders.It just makes the custodes faction look schizophrenic to me, I don't get why GW does this.Is it for a joke? If it is, I'm not laughhing. Are these BL books meant to be comedic "hahas" that is "these codexes are what you THINK they are like, but this is what they REALLY ARE like", which just falls flat because the delivery is both very badly done and also dumb in general.
>>98929754
>>98929852ADB is lead creative for BL now and he hates all things emperor and custodes.
>>98929754light grey kind of sucks to paint for an entire army.
>>98929852propaganda cop out, there being no really objective sources as even the fucking narrator liessupposedly above rage too but in Carrion Throne the seethe just drips out of the pages as Dio listens to Guiliman.Also ADBverse is a skinwalker
this is the perfect necron sculpt
>>98929853This is actually kinda stupid. Idk how one would even proxy this.
>>98929852I think GW and more specifically their black library writers just really wanted them to be flawed like normal human beings in some way. It's a problem they have with a lot of their writing where they make characters way too sympathetic and relatable to modern human sensibilities when they should be either utterly alien and inhuman or totally radical to our scope and understanding.
>buy 200 magnets to put together my terrain>Run out halfway through >Need to buy more magnetsFuck.
>>98929876It's a general issue with contemporary fiction. It assumes readers can't divorce themselves from the protagonist any more, so the protagonist needs to be made relatable. It's like the ability to abstract is slowly being unlearned by newer generations.
>>98929880Those 200 magnets should have been like 6 dollars so it's not the end of the world.Bulk m2, m3, m4 and m5 magnets are never expensive.
>>98929870The old overlord with the scythe is better
>>98929867>propaganda cop outLame>>98929861>ADB is lead creative for BL nowDoesn't really explain it because custodes were characterized like this by many different authors, *before* ADB even became the head of narrative at GW.So this is an issue that pre-dates him.
>>98929886don't be ridiculous
What terrain do you guys play the game on, the prepainted armageddon is a bit expensive but kinda headache free. Looking for options
>>98929891ttcombat's mdf junk
>>98929890I'm not, it's far better actually Not even comparable
>>98929884>like 6 dollarsAre magnets really THAT cheap in the US?>it's not the end of the world.It's less the price and more the hassle.
>>98929852Greater Demons are supposed to be sapient demigods with intelligence surpassing mortals backed by immortalitiy's experience but are always portrayed as dumb monsters (except DoW2).It's because writers can't write characters who are smarter than themselves.
>>98929897This is better
>>98929883>It's a general issue with contemporary fiction. It assumes readers can't divorce themselves from the protagonist any more, so the protagonist needs to be made relatable. It's like the ability to abstract is slowly being unlearned by newer generations.To be fair however, seeing how genuinely retarded modern people are, even younger generations, it's not surprising the writers feel the need to make the protagonist feel more relatable.Like lets not forget that the whole yellow/white paint/ropes/marker shit that happens in video games nowadays. There obviously are smart gamers out there, but holy fuck the amount of retards I see out in the wild who genuinely can't fucking grasp basic observation and/or LISTENING to what characters say is insanely high.It's the whole:>"I went to the store today to buy some milk and bread." Says the protagonist in a book"What the fuck, no I didn't. I'm sitting in my living room." says the retard reading the said book.
>>98929896which one?
>>98929909FUCK YOU
>>98929913Later, maybe
>>98929909Fuck off, scamp
>>98929899>THAT cheap in the US?I bought 200 M3x2 magnets for $5.99 like 2 months ago on Amazon. Bulk Chinesium magnets are that cheap. And before you ask, any other source of tiny metric magnets are just going to be resold piecemeal out of Chinese bulk packs at a mark-up.>the hassleFor me it's "open Amazon, order magnets, wait 2 days, get magnets." I obviously don't know how it is for you so I can't speak on a way to fix it. Sorry.
>>98929915Woman tier response.
>>98929754You'll be seen as a potential furry. Better avoid it if you can.
>>98929920From fag-tier taste
>>98929918>>98929926Permanent
>>98929905>It's because writers can't write characters who are smarter than themselves.I understand that as a limitation, I'd certainly struggle with it too, but it shouldn't be that hard to write a character who is supposed to be very stoic/reserved, bordering on almost emotionless. While they are above petty things like pride or arrogance.It's like if you have an instruction book that specifically lays out and says>Don't make character into an prideful asshole>Don't make character into an autist who can't interact with regular people normallyBut still doing this anyway.It feels like the writers either do it deliberately or they subconsciously add the emotional parts in for some reason.
>>98929754Space Wolves are Worf tier jobbers (which is fitting cause they’re both space viking larpers). this isn’t necessarily a bad thing, I personally love Worf, just know you’re getting into the faction that will suffer comical loss after comical loss.
>>98929852>gw makes female custodes>custodes go from demigod renassaince men to short tempered emotional retardsWhat did gw mean by this
>>98929935Reader expectations can also factor in. If suddenly custodes started being buddha bastions of calm or greater demons suddenly acted like primarch-level villains it would come off as strange. Custodes have been coming across as spiteful and bitter for a while.
>>98929929Permanent
>>98929754We all love space wolves here, go for it, anon.
>>98929965NO YOUR PERMANENT
>>98929970Yeah, we love space wolves alright…Love killing ‘em! HAHAHAHA
>>98929970Frost paws on the other hand...
>>98929977erm, that’s their dead name.they to by frost claws now :)
>>98929955>If suddenly custodes started being buddha bastions of calm or greater demons suddenly acted like primarch-level villains it would come off as strange.That'd be a good thing really, custodes are meant to be more "alien" and kind of off putting for regular people. They should evoke more of an weird/uncanny vibe.>Custodes have been coming across as spiteful and bitter for a while.And that's the problem, they aren't really supposed to.
>>98929975I'm always happy to see people enjoying my diorama
>>98929975This will never not be funny lol
>>98929988bullying an autist aside, its so good. what happened to “the drops” diorama though?
