>What's a dumb gimmick army you really want to build and play?Admech Walker spamPros: Sexiest models in AdmechCons: Almost one dollar per point
So played my first game with SM, and I was not expecting them to preform the way they did. I didn't know that Heavy Intercessors were the go to battleline unit when i decided on them.
>>98933562Not him but here you go
>>98933570
I'm not spending thousands on fucking DYI toys before I know if the core game is good.Anyone who has played on Tabletop Simulator, is it fairly easy?I still can't understand how anyone gets into this hobby unless they are spoiled kids or single adult nerds.
>>98933571
>>98933577
>>98933570hell yeah. nothing like a badass inquisitor with two smoking hot babes he plows every night.
>>98933580

>>98933591
>>98933596fuck now I want to play genestealers
alright, I think that’s a little too much testosterone.
>>98933603last flick pic i'll spam
>>98933581there's just something special about BA crossover art
>>98933547>TQSisters tank spam
>>98933559>Almost one dollar per pointWhat is the worst points per dollar unit?Off the top of my head of units I've bought:Centaur RSV is $1.10 per pointOgryn are $1.13 per pointRatlings are $1.20 per pointCommissar is $1.37 per pointDialogus is $1.13 per pointSoB Rhino is $1.06 per point
How much of a beta cuck you have to be to like gacha crap
>>98933571Are there any mentions in the lore anywhere, even just a battle rep in WD or something, of T'au vs Custodes? Like I know GW always wants to have a baked in excuse for why any faction would fight any other faction, but Custodes vs T'au seems real hard to think up a reason for besides random EMperor's tarot nonsense.
>>98933616founds the /v/tard
>>98933574Anon $500 is not a lot to get started on a hobby.
>>98933547>What's a dumb gimmick army you really want to build and play?Grot Revolutionary Committee. I think it's technically possible now with 11e detachment rules, just go with the runt spam and walker detachments to max out on grots and kans
>>98933616>he doesn't spend his entire paycheck on Warhammer 40,000: Tacticusnewfag
>>98933627Kek I forgot that game exists
>>98933624500? I've only see 650 min for an army and thats with no paint.
>>98933618Same reason anyone fights anyone in 40K - because they were vaguely in the same area code as you.
>>98933627Ironically it's more greedy than the eastern gachasWestoid gachas unironically believe twitter antis that claim you can just put gambling in and people will throw their entire bank account at you then wonder why they don't make that much money
>>98933633>picbasically thishttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0PtrRBWQbnM
>>98933632you can easily get 500 pts and all the supplies you need to build and paint them from scratch, for 500 bucks MSRP
>>98933632Im talking just 750 to 1k points not a full 2k
>Spent 1k on figures that are not put together>Somehow get them glued together and put some shitty paint job on them for 100 more bucks>Now you get to play the game!Please prove me otherwise.I see 'budget' options are being 800 bucks if you are lucky and want some stupid 4 piece army.
I'm a newbie and I want some necrons.Where do I start with some cool ass undead necrons?
>>98933547>TQ:Part of me wants to make an all-Wraith Eldar army, but it would just be worse, less supported Custodes.
>>98933644lmao poor spotted. get filtered.>this is still infinitely cheaper than real adult hobbies like golf or skiing or cars
>>98933644why the fuck you spending 1,000 bucks on a small starter army? Hell, even a full 2,000 pts should be well under that.
>>98933643You can get exactly 1000 points of guard for $492>2 Leman Russ Commanders (1 with 15-point enhancement, both with Demolisher Cannon main gun)>1 Leman Russ Battle Tank>1 Leman Russ Exterminator>1 Leman Russ PunisherAll of these can have the lascannon hull gun.>1 Hydra
>>98933644This hobby is meant to filter brokies like you. It keeps the riff raff out and it’s why this hobby has lasted for so long
>>9893364440k, like or not, is a craft hobby. And craft hobbies are money sinks. You can be prudent and efficient with your cash, but it will never truly be cheap.
>>98933580>the Sept has fallen >billions of auxilaries must die
>>98933644>start painting set brush, 5 paints and 3 minis is $45>buy 10 more paints and inks $70ish>super glue plus second brush $20ish>combat patrol, $200>another $200 for another character, unit, vehicle etcThats 550 for 750 to 1k points.
>>98933644If you don't enjoy painting and building models you probably won't enjoy the hobby since that's most of what you'll be doing.Or be lazy and buy some cheap off ebay
>>98933547Fucking hell, some stupid tiny piece of shit semi-circle for... whatever the fuck a guardian is holding (tiny ass semi-circle nub, a fraction of a fingernail) was glued... carefully in place. Then my finger slip as I tried to hold it to cure and it shot off into the warp.So now I said fuck it, the device is some weird warp reader or something I don't know, it's going to hopefully look like a glowing crystal.>TQI want to build a bunch of different exodite tribes and essentially create the equivalent of a multi-planet (just different biomes) ARK: Survival Evolved base.

>>98933691If you're going to discuss vtubers can we at least discuss one's that actually like 40k
How much of a beta male you have to be to like vtubers
>>98933547>TQLooking at the idea of a cultist+legends cultists 240 infantry melee army based around khorne zealots so they can hurt stuff on 5's and 6's.>all of them made out of headless skeletons dipped in brass>would just be drybrushed brass and the 'corrosion' would be a bright glowing green in the recesses using capilary function and a neon green paint>the mass of skulls from the sets would be turned into objective markersI would buy the roman themed cheap skeleton sets. The skeleton horses would be used for daemons or something.
>>98933701>that actually like 40kHow do you tell when an internet personality actually likes 40k or is just covering 40k because 40k is having a popularity "wave" right now?
>>98933662What if I'm anal any any mistake I make when putting them together or painting them drives me to the edge of madness?

>>98933702All streamers are parasocial creatures, the only difference is that Vtubers have the decency to not to put their entire personal lives online
>>98933644I need you to commit and buy a combat patrol and build the entire thing and simply base it with a spray can, I promise just seeing it completed and with a single color will hook you in and show you that you can compete here.
I don't understand how to even get started.Could someone point me in the right direction?What gives a model points? Can I use old models? Do I have to use official models? Is there a judge like MTG? How do people know what a model does? Can you say a model is something it isn't?Why do you play this game?
>>98933721Fair enough. I heard the Necrons one was garbage but what's a simple 160 bucks.
>>98933726You sound deranged, buy a god damn combat patrol and the main rule book and read ffs.
>>98933708Christian Von Carmian is probably the only real 40k Vtuber out there because he actually plays the game. But, he’s a dude so the loser pussyfree simps here aren’t interested
>>98933728I started with the necron combat patrol and based it black and knew I would love the game.
>>98933726Hope this helpshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=htOYDeNy_C8&list=PLmv1SRWyPfh_D0XFw2xZW6zPUYNj3QQ3N
>>98933717Oh hey megarachnids
>>98933709Unironically, that's normalRemember: You will be the only one looking that closely. You know every flaw because you made the flaw. Everyone else is just seeing it for the first time and won't take the time to scrutinize every detail.Also, no matter what you do, you're already in the top 50% by just having fully painted dudes. You'll be in the top 10% by knowing the basics of layer painting, highlights, and washesAnyway, here's my mid elfs with a shitty experimental shading method
Does anybody use cobalt keep bases? Are they worth it? I'm looking to get some 32 mm bases from them.
>>98933754WHERE ARE THE MID ELFS

>>98933691>Let Chaos Idols take this thread!
>>98933754>>98933757oops
>>98933758Dude. He’s been playing the game for a long time. He’s probably a fat neckbeard in his late 30s
>>98933768and?
>>98933717>femstodes>genuine 40K likerlol>femstodes with ELF ears>genuine 40K lore appreciatorlmao even
>>98933625Sort of, if you're playing Crucible there's an actual GRC-themed Upstart Grot character you can use as a warlord, so yeah if you find people to play it. Otherwise you're forced to use an ork as your warlord, closest you'll get is Zodgrod, or maybe the Red Gobbo if you find people who allow legends.I want Grot Tanks and the Mega-Tanks back.
So if I spend 160 on a combat patrol, the models never get out of date?
>>98933779Depends on the armyMarines? You may as well build your house out of popsicle sticks for how often Marines get their shit shuffled aroundBut anything that ISN'T Marines or maybe Deldar should last you at least 5 years
>>98933779some models do go away but it's very rare.Also you'll still own a cool model, that's why you should buy what looks cool instead of focusing on rules
>>98933768The guy you're replying to is the resident thread homogay who has an agenda to push, keep that in mind
>>98933779Bro they’ll last a good ten years for the most part in common play so just buy it and have fun. We don’t even know if we’ll have a country or a heart attack in ten years so don’t worry about how old your models will be.
>>98933776>Otherwise you're forced to use an ork as your warlordYeah it's a bit unfortunate but nothing a lil kitbashing couldn't solve>grot on mechastilts/a roving propaganda podium to look taller>three grots in a trenchcoat>grot with a REALLY big hatJust use one of those and run it as Zodgrod and you're good to go. It'd be nice to get some actual grot specialists or something to round out a proper GRC army though. Or even just a KT of "Grot Revolutionaries" that are decked out appropriately and led by a not!Da Red Gobbo Grottissar if DRG is foreverially stuck as a santa gimmick now. Kinda fittingly ironic that the commie stand-in grot becomes a symbol of hyperconsumerism. Fiction imitating real life and all that.
>>98933779>the models never get out of dateunless gw ignores your faction for a decade they will be obsolete the next edition. GW uses the rules to move inventory.Only buy the stuff you like to paint and build. Never chase the meta. This is not a game so much as an excuse to buy models.
>>98933779As an extreme Firstborn only autist, never say neverIf your LGS has people who aren't mentally unstable tourney whores, you can proxy your units until the end of days
>>98933790This makes sense but I see a lot of cope in the thread>Well it's really not that expensive if you consider the price of a bass boat/summer house cabin>Well you could die tomorrow so it's OK just do itEh.
>>98933779adding onto the other anons, even if the models end up going out of date, you’re usually good to proxy them as a model that’s looks close enough. this was recently done for the tactical squad who was completely removed from sale and rules, but now they just tell you to use any tactical squad as a primaris intercessor squad.
This all seems like SUCH a pain in the ass to get into.I'll sell a magic deck or two and get a combat patrol and see what happens, I guess.
>>98933766I think they're neat anon
>>98933797 I started in 10th and have 4 armies, of my thousands of models I have maybe 2-3 units are now legends in over 3 years. They move really slow so I’m telling you that you’ve got nothing to worry about.
>>98933547>TQThe "characters only" army from BA's index detachment
Any opinions on these two head choices, leaning on the left head.
>>98933821go left, he looks like his name would be chad thundercock
>>98933821The right for me, the left looks like he’s making a “Hurghgggleg!” Type of noise.
>>98933726Look at artwork and models.Find an army that looks cool to you.Download a PDF of their Codex and the Core Rulebook and read them over. If you can't find them you aren't trying. /tg/ should have links to everything you can imagine.If you still think they're cool, buy a battleline unit or combat patrol from that army.Get a set of sprue cutters, a hobby knife set, and some loctite gel control superglue.Carefully snip the parts off the sprue, use the hobby knife to clean any mold lines or marks from the cutters, and assemble the minis. There will likely be instructions in the box if assembly isn't obvious.Buy a can of primer. GW primer is fine, as is Army Painter, Vallejo, and other brands specifically for minis. Random primers bought at a hardware store aren't a good idea - might work, might be too coarse and ruin your minis. Shake well, spray in an environment that isn't too dry or humid, and isn't freezing cold (so outdoors in winter probably isn't a good idea). Let dry 24h. There are literally thousands of tutorials for painting on Youtube.You will need several such units to form an army. Army composition is explained in the codex and rulebooks. https://www.newrecruit.eu/ can also help.>Why do you play this game?Play?

Dark Eldar refresh is coming. I can feel it.
>>98933882that actually makes him sound based. instead, bjorn will get a refresh that triples down on wolf shit, removes the heraldry on the front covers, and replaces the claw with a generic primaris redemptor dreadnought hand. this I prophesy.

How did you get into 40k?
>>98933938Henry Cavill
>>98933938Lore vids. Im still watching em. Never bought a single model

>>98933596Don't think I don't see that baby bump. What the hell is going on in there.
>>98933938LotR movies when I was young -> MESBG -> 40k
>>98933938Tabletop Club in 8th grade, first game I watched was BA vs. Crimson Fists.
Still tossing up heads, but at least there's paint on the model.Might change the staff for something else.I hope everyone else's collages entry progress is going well.
>>98933938The LotR magazine when the movies came out, then warhammer fantasy and one of the school friends I played with had an older brother who played 40k so eventually we got into that too.
>>98933613Nurglings are pretty down there
>>98933779Never say never, but generally combat patrols are made up of core units and newer releases GW wants to push, so you're probably going to be fine for a long time. At worst if you have one with a lot of characters maybe one might get removed and you'll have to use the model as something else, or if you're playing a weirdo Space Marine side-faction like Grey Knights you may get folded into another codex. It's far more likely some of the models may just be bad rules-wise than become totally defunct, but you can't really predict what stupid shit GW might change edition to edition with that.
>>98933938Saw some friends playing it in grade 4, picked it up a year later and had it sit on my cupboard until another friend took introduced me to a library Warhammer club.16years later the club's no longer running but I'm still good mates and play with everyone that went to the club.
What do you guys think of my Imperial Guard regiment?>bell bottom trousers so they can be rolled up to wade in swamps>highly reflective colors and protective eyewear to deal with the radioactivity of their homeworld>medallion on the neck to serve as a dog tag>large hair instead of a helmet to emulate the style of their Lord Commander Militant Discoff Stewart

>>98933938I was in the NavyOne of the other guys in my division was a fat chud who loved World Eaters and talked about 40k all the time (he later got kicked out for failing all physical exams)Being in radio gives you 24/7 satcom internet when you're out at sea, which was pretty neat, but it was slow so I read wikis with minimal images and all text, which included a lot of 40k and PlanescapeI was legit on my 40-ish hour straight of watch reading about Biel Tan and the Salamanders and the Inquisition when it was easier to read BL books for free online and I started getting attached, then that was thatAfter I got out of the military and started having money and personal space, I started painting

The most compelling Corax return story isn't about hunting Lorgar or fighting daemon Primarchs, it's about confronting the legacy of the XIX Legion. After ten thousand years in the Warp, Corax returns expecting to continue his war against the traitors, only to discover that his true unfinished business is his own sons. He finds the Raven Guard carrying his ideals, the Raptors embodying his pragmatism, the Death Spectres guarding the darkness beyond the Imperium, the Carcharodons faithfully executing the ancient exile and duty he imposed upon their ancestors, and the Ashen Claws who never forgave him for that judgment. The emotional core of the story is not betrayal, but loyalty: the tragedy of the Carcharodons is that they obeyed. For ten millennia they continued the mission given to them, preserving ancient rites and remaining loyal despite exile. Meanwhile, the Ashen Claws stand as a living challenge to Corax's decisions, asking whether he was right to cast them aside and whether the brutal Imperium of the 42nd Millennium proves their worldview correct. Rather than defeating a daemon Primarch, Corax must answer for the consequences of his own choices, acting not as a warrior but as a father. In doing so, he has the opportunity to reunite the fractured descendants of the Raven Guard and judge the true legacy of the Raven Lord after ten thousand years.

>>98933574The game is only as good as the people you're spending several hours rolling dice about toy soldiers with. There are heaps of battle report videos on Youtube that are tedious to watch in spite of the hosts' energy and being edited down to an hour or so.Again (probably), if the hobby aspect doesn't appeal to you at all or only appeals as a means to an end then hobbyist miniature tabletop wargames like 40k probably aren't for you.On the other hand, if the hobby only bothers you because you're deranged and planning on spending the price of a duty-grade 5.56 gun on 2000 points of grimdark army men all at once even though they won't be meta by the time you assemble and paint them, please just buy one box of the basic dudes of whatever faction you like and some appropriate paints and brushes and stuff and see how it goes.

>>98934223You don't. Ignore the meme gravis and phobos shit. Build only intercessors and their variants, along with veterans, scouts, and terminators.
>>98934028Peter Fehervari is good enough that I picked up his latest without even checking what it was about, and all his stuff is pretty standalone despite all being interconnected.Chris Wraight's books are probably the top tier of "40kslop"; Lords of Silence will make you love the Death Guard and is getting a sequel soon, Wrath of Iron is great as an introductory 40k book if you're open to flavors of Space Marines besides vanilla, etc.Beyond that you get into "if you want to read about X faction you should read Y and Z" like "if you're curious about Night Lords you should read the Omnibus, Lord of the Night, The Remnant Blade, and Konrad Curze: the Night Haunter" where they're all fine books but some of them are significantly better than others and if you aren't already invested in the setting your enjoyment will vary accordingly
Been a while since I've done some free hand, definitely room for improvement but I'm happy.Also planning on smoothing out the book pages with some acrylic resin putty, so I'll have to respray that.
Mr Bones is so fucking annoying, I don't know how you people stand it

>>98934217>there's lore describing them as having uddersAh yes, the ironclad "lore" of "Everything In This Book Is Wrong And That's The Joke". If anything the only thing canon is that they DON'T have udders because the Primer says they do.

>>98934389I remember an anon once posting that a Warhammer Horror novel addressed this kind of thing. The people can be really bigoted but the higher ups in the Imperium don't care.I'm not sure if it is true, as I don't read BL books.Still it makes me curious if GW ever had BL writers address that inconsistency that gets meme'd on that your post points out.
>here's your grimdark, brutal, miserable, ruthless universe bro
>>98933547>TQOgryn rush army. Just ogryns nothing more and nothing less, but I doubt that they'll be that good of an army even in current edition. I think some WH40K joke armies can work. Heard of a 100+ infantry guard army stopping a big tournament. Not sure if it is true or not.>flick artHe has excellent taste to be honest. I hope he is doing alright. His Warhammer 40k art also sometimes does good sexually charged jokes instead of just "the joke being sex." Anybody got that pic by Flick where Guilliman is doing the Patrick Bateman arm flex with Yvraine and Khan is seen with a Dark Eldar lady?I remember when that pic of the man surrounded by redheaded Banshee girls always had to have a "GIWTWM" post addressing it first.
>>98934399Still more grimdark than the average primarchsloppa
>>98934399what chapter do the orks eat them and affix their skulls into cod pieces
>>98934379
>>98934414Whew I thought things were about to get a little grimdark and uncomfortable there
>>98934398I mean it makes sense. The higher ups and officials don't really care because they are gonna be sending all the faggots and undesirables to the frontlines alongside the rest of the guardsmen anyway. Like they are all going to die regardless anyway.It's kinda weird that people expect the imperium to care about what some sexuality some retard has, when they send billions of people to die every day in their wars.
>>98934414>eldar woman is shorter than the humansCan't even get the lore correct.Or the eldar sent their equivalent of a half-grown teenager into war.
>>98934389When you think about it, the population of a hive world should be overwhelmingly singular in terms of ethnicity.By definition a Hive World will produce an ungodly amount of new citizens, completely dwarfing the population of every other planet in the local area. Incoming immigration would therefore be proportionally irrelevant, while outgoing exports would be from the same general gene pool. The initial population would either be a mix of ethnicities from colony ships, homogenized over the millenia since settlement, or a pre-Imperial human population that has been stabilised.Either way you're probably looking at most Hive Worlders being incredibly similar genetically for their population to be possible.
>>98934413the orks eat them? the kids eventually go crazy deep in ork space and begin eating the orks and wearing ork heads as trophies.
>>98934414hypothetically...
>>98934198Crazy how the basecoat is already a better paintjob
>>98934399genuinely pissing me off how its meant to be a childrens book, but they decide to make the antagonists as generic goffs and snakebites with extremely drab colors. if they want to groom kids into liking 40K why the FUCK did they not pick more eye catching colors like death skulls or bad moons, so the cover stands out more and to get kids into thinking about collecting orks.
>>98934198yo, sick dyed hair… pussy!
>>98934422>Either way you're probably looking at most Hive Worlders being incredibly similar genetically for their population to be possible.Not really. You forget that hive cities often contain hazards that would cut off some sections off from one another.Like an old reactor meltdown which has basically poisoned a large section dividing an area and cut 2 population groups off one another.There's also often hive quakes and the like which can create giant chasms/ravines that can also cut off populations and separate them. Also then don't forget that there are usually lots of different hive cities on a planet. Which function essentially like their own countries and travel between hive cities happens but mainly only for the wealthy. And this would also drive further genetic drift and cause different ethnic populations to form as well.
>>98934301>>98934305Painting is fine, but wtf happened with the basecoat?
>>98934456I’ve had minis like that before, its not a problem with the basecoat, it was just primed from too far away, iirc the primer partly dries before it hits the model which causes little flakes to build up.
>>98934461It's not only about the distance, often it's caused by the low humidity level.
>>98933574Let me save you the time and money here - the core game is in fact not good from a pure rule design standpoint. It's a Frankenstein's monster of four decades of contradicting design principles. Rules updates happens for one army at the time, often leading to situations where one player will have better, more ind-depth rules than the other. Developer attention is also very unevenly divided among factions, with the vast majority of time and effort going towards one specific faction (space marines). Warhammer 40 000 is a craft hobby that happens to have a wargame associated with it. The crafting is the primary part of the hobby. I cannot state this hard enough.
>>98934416It does make sense to be honest. I will confess that as verboten as it sounds, I think fictional and nonfictional bigotry belongs in 40k because the bigotry also reflects stagnation among the masses as the Imperium of Man is all about stagnation. At least until Cawl started inventing stuff.I'm not sure if BL writers have properly addressed Cawl bouncing accusations of innovation off himself or if his antics are gonna cause a schism.
>>98934488>I'm not sure if BL writers have properly addressed Cawl bouncing accusations of innovation off himself or if his antics are gonna cause a schism.Nothing will ever happen.

>>98934553You only reveal how new you are by not knowing of something that happened less than a decade agoHe entered with the Spanish translation of the Austrian painter and showed up dressed like this, everybody refused to play against him and TOs wouldn't do anything so he won, then a week later GW put out a statement
>>98934562>no photos
>>98934569>Stomping your feet and insisting it still didn't happenHere's the original article that shows the tournament brackets and everything,and it's already in a language understandable to somebody as brown as you are!
>>98934543>Made me checkGlad you did. The Austrian painter at that Warhammer tournament was just an "irl troll." If I recall correctly the Spanish wargamers there just avoided gaming with him. Except a Redditor who blew the whistle then GW put out that "Imperium driven by hate" statement. Given that both are statements I can see why some people got them mixed up.
The tournament happened. A player definitely did this. Proceed with the Two Minutes Hate. Anyone asking for proof will be summarily unpersoned

>>98934545Gatekept
>>98934591Thx bby. At least you provided a source of where you got your info. That's better than "just trust me bro or you're bad." >>98934606I don't know how to maintain my brushes so I bought bulk Chinese brushes. I manage to mess this up even with the B&J brush soap that some people say is really good. I think it is a clear cut skill issue and even after watching tutorials I can't do it. Just wanna paint good Warhammer 40k miniatures and I still suck at this. :(
Does anyone know a good black or grey primer I can use with an airbrush? I have the big vallejo primers and they're not bad but they take like 15 hours to cure fully. The grey one also needs 2 coats to cover fully and I'm not sure if this is a normal thing with airbrush primers. The tamiya grey spray can i use to use never needed more than 1 coat.I also got an AK interactive matte varnish but it needs thinning for airbrush use. my vallejo ultra matte varnish does not. Is this the case for most airbrush primers?>>98934606I like Da Vinci miniature maestro brushes.Rosemary and co aren't bad either.I don't buy Windsor and newton cause it's a 50/50 chance your brush comes fucked up right out the box. I've been burned 3 times by their bullshit from different vendors as well.

Sister bros, how do you paint your girls' cuirass when it's covered by weapon held in front of it, I cannot get both weapon and corset without touching the other with my brush, and how do you paint their thighs with the crotch flap tabard getting in the way? I paint the clothes, and the legs get ruined. I cover the legs, and need to go again at the loin clothes. Am I just clumsy? Should I give up, because nobody will look at my girls from beneath, or in such angle they wouldn't notice unpainted back of weapon and the part of corsetry that the weapon hides? What were the designers thinking? Or did I choose worst army for newbie?
>>98934562NTA butI'm not gonna lie, I think the "Austrian Painter" was just an attention seeker who wanted to get some kicks of offending people. Which is why he went to the Warhammer 40k Spanish tournament the way he did. He got more than what he thought he could get to be honest.
>>98934727You did choose quite a bad army for a new player, they are very dense with detail but that's okay honestly.The corset is a pain in the ass to do behind weapons but you can also often just leave it black (if you primed in black) and it's not really noticeable and often looks intentional.The legs and robes thing is pretty common to have happen, just go slow with touch ups and get it as good as you can.If you are just starting out, getting them looking good at arms length is best. Only probably you are going to be picking them up to look at them right in front of your eyes. Also remember that in a group the tiny problems with a single model disappear Brush control is a learned skill and will take you a while to get, just keep going and it will come to you.What order are you going with anyway? I love sisters and would love to see
>>98934727For getting between the legs I don't glue them to a base right away. Glue a stick to one foot, prime and paint the underside of the legs and fabric first, then base properly before painting the rest. The corsets I just leave black on those models. Highlight the top of the boob plate and job's good.

will people freak the fuck out if I use DE venoms proxies for war walkers? Would people even notice?I don't know how I feel about the chickens. Eldar looks fun to play.
>>98935304Sure. But counts-as Heldrake since Hell Talons are Legends.
>>98935315I don't think most Eldar players could tell you what the Eldar weapons look like in general, let alone your average meta gaming grognard staring at the murderapeitrixes dangling from your models. I guess provided you can remember and you don't change it mid tourney without swapping to the other spiked, glowing barrel, you're gonna be golden
>>98935304It's been legend'd so I would be fine with it in a casual game if asked about legends units, but you probably want to have it be a count as heldrake.Messing around with converting a defiler a bit and was thinking of doing something this to have a giant claw. Thoughts? It's going to be for my BL army.
>>98935458Didn't attach the photo properly I guess
>>98935466Neat. Those blade arms from the WHF tombking sphinx look really damn cool honestly. As a whole the sphinx looks super nice.
>What's a dumb gimmick army you really want to build and play?It's probably not a thing anymore, but I like the idea of Goffs having musicians who inspire them in old editions. I think 40k should have more support units like that.
>>98935315Even though a venom has the same base size (60mm) it's significantly broader than a warwalker due to the shape of the hull. If you have other DE units then a Talos might be a better proxy option and looks more like a mobile gun platform anyway.Talk to the people you are playing with about it. Only way to be sure.
>>98935312Raiders have a firing deck of 11 which is their transport capacity as well. Unless they upped it to 12, which wouldn’t make sense since there are no support characters and the largest unit size is 10, there would be no reason for it to be 12.
>>98935517They can carry two squads of 6 then. Which is a common occurrence in DE with all the 5+Character squads they have running around for their MSU builds.
>>98935507shes got that trans baddie bodytype
>>98935495They're awesome, I have part of the tail too. They have been lying around in my bits box for years. What sucks is they're just the wrong size for a prince but maybe as part of a big crab claw it could work. Might remove the stubby stabby tail with the scorpion tail as well
>>98935517To append this: Raiders can’t transport harlequins, which are the only unit available to deldar that can have units of 10+
>>98935507Boobs too small.
>>98935527Just use venoms in that case. They’re better fit for it
>>98933734Necrons are a good starter army because you can get it done in an afternoon>assemble>spray with black primer>spray with gunmetal>apply black wash>drybrush with silver>paint the green bits green>apply dark green wash on the green bits>wa laEntire army looks presentable and it only took 2 cans of spray, 4 kinds of paint, 1 brush, and a couple of hours of work.

>>98935075Are disgenic Xenos scum, only good for killin'
>>98935554The Emperor doesn't look like that
>>98935533What about the Court of the Archon? Isn't that a 15 model unit?
>>98935564The Emperor doesn't have a singly defined visual form, he's seen differently by different people.
>>98935554>Eldar>DysgenicRemind me which species is plagued by mutants and abnormal genetic variants?
>>98935573The Eldar literally have an entire dimension devoted to constant and escalating degeneracy
>>98935572>Nazis were a major inspiration for much of the designsUhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, Storm Boyz, Commissars, and uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...
>>98935587What does that have to do with eugenics?
>>98935594If Deldar stopped happening, that'd be good wouldn't it?
>>98935237Shut the hell up
>>98935594If Deldar stopped happening, that'd be good wouldn't it? >>98935598>I'm not a communist>Hates NazisYou know who hated Nazis, dumbass?
>>98935587Jeez this poor girl needs a hamburger
>>98935572>He says, being a communistnta but what led to you to that conclusion? also, although you’re right that nazis are going to be attracted to a setting that takes a lot of inspiration from nazis, that doesn’t mean you can’t think they’re retarded for being nazis. If a dude decides to play death guard because they relate to them being obese and refusing to shower, that doesn’t mean you have to go “well, I guess I have to tolerate him because he just really likes death guard!”

>>98935601>You know who hated Nazis, dumbass?do you?
>>98935602I think it's wrong to shame people for their bodies. There are hundreds of reasons she could be thin, and she frankly doesn't look emaciated, so her health is probably fine (assuming she doesn't have any conditions I can't see from a picture). Pic related is a fat guy cosplaying a rogue trader, there are hundreds of reasons he might be fat so it's impossible to judge him as merely being a mindless glutton where there are perfectly normal social or hormonal reasons he might look this way.
>>98935608Sparines sell good. I think the Leagues of Votann had potential, they'd be really good metaphors for environmentally unsustainable practices. But GW, a company that runs factories and imports loads of plastic and spray paints, probably doesn't want people thinking that way.
>>98935618Bruh she looks like Plank from Ed, Edd, n Eddy..
>>98935631I didn’t say I wouldn’t I’m just stating the obvious
>>98935631A REMINDER THAT THIS NUDITY IS PURELY FOR ARTISTIC EXPRESSION AND IS NOT PORNOGRAPHY
>>98935628Women are people and the size of their boobs is a terrible metric to judge them by. (I remade this post because I didn't know the image was NSFW, the thumbnail was too small)
>>98935637Damn they zapped it quick
>>98935644Jannies didn't do it, I deleted it so I wouldn't get beaned
>>98935650Well done chief, she has nice tits tho.
So I've heard the Wave Serpent isn't all that great these days "fresh" out of storage, is that substantiated at all or is it still perfectly fine.I like the design, I'm just worried about bad mould lines.
>>98935670It still holds up well, I bought mine used and had to use some Shibari to ensure the two halves glued together once I was done restoring/magnetizing them.
>>98935689And here's the Wave Serpent fully painted. I need to take a solo pic with the Falcon too later, but I'm almost finished working on my Bladeguard Vets and want them done this afternoon.
wheres the pricelist for the boxsets? is the BA one truly cheaper because its that shit?
>>98935707They're charging $255 USD for all the Battleforces. Yes all of them.
>>98935587that couldn't be more obviously a man if he was trying
>>98935712>Yes all of them.>Blood Angels 11 models, 10 infantry, 1 walker>HH boxes 52 models, 41 infantry, 1 giant tanksurely not all of them?Seriously, why is GW so shit at communicating any useful information. The article says "next week". Why not just post a date? Why not just post the price? Why not just link to the products in the store? Why do I have to keep an eye on that?Incompetence at every level at that company.
>>98935691It looks good thanks for the insight, I'm still on the edge if I want the taint of corsairs even if they do look very cool. But the box seems like a good deal at 25% off at a store.Unrelated note, I'm on a used miniature reseller store and there is just a TON of windriders, on/off sprue, painted/bare. I know the previous eldar CP had 6 of them so I'm not shocked but I am curious why are there so many getting sold off?
>>98935735Worse, it's French.
>>9893574140k has long had a really gross upcharge on its space marine shit since the introduction of the 3 man elite unit in 8th edition. once they figured out piggies will buy 3 space marine units for $60 it was off to the races
>>98935757That's ruff.
goddamn the Retributor kit has a lot of heads
>>98935770I think it's enough for all helmeted, all with bare heads and all with breathing masks
>>98935770plenty to put on my orks’ bosspole :D
>>98935770they know how bad most sisters painters are and have to give you spares
>>98935741>The article says "next week". Why not just post a date?It's literally always 10am the following Saturday.
>>98935670Eldar models really reveal how few design ideas GW have. They're supposed to be alien and strange and yet there they are with the same length of cloth dangling between their legs that the human factions have. Jump pack with wings. Right hand gun, left hand sword. Oversized pauldrons and breathing masks.
>>98933943same

>>98935712whats the source?
>>98935807GW Stock Lists
>>98935818>release date is a fridaylooks fake to me
>>98935846You realize these charts are publicly accessible on GW's vendor website right?
>>98935785That is good to know. Thanks.Sadly their website doesn't mention it.
The Ork aesthetic peaked in 1997 and everything since has been a cheap copy.Especially those Crash Bandicoot looking "snaggas" wtf was that little experiment lmao
>>98934941the issue, as someone who worked at a LGS, is that TCG players spend money and are usually paying the rent. So unfortunately you are quite literally just less important financially to the stores existence even if I like you guys more because you actually shower (mostly). Same with the RPG folks who play dnd at the store. Its nice to have folks in one the slow day keeping the store alive and giving it a sense of community but there is quite literally no store with the TCG fags.
>>98935587feet
>>98935915Fair enough. As much as we spend on this hobby I sometimes forget how much more common TCG players are and how much more frequently they make purchases. You can't pay your rent on all of the "no 40k releases for 3 months" GW keeps throwing around.
>>98935950you also have to think about how bad the margins are. we are making like sub 5% on all transactions, then subtract rent + employee wages + taxes and how much is left over? The only way to survive is to have a LOT of transactions and TCG is really just the primary way that happens. Comics and such can do that too to a lesser extent. Hobby supplies are good. But 40k itself despite the big box prices doesn't bring in much for the store.
how do I get more beaky bois
Still alive. Mostly moved onto other projects (Turnip28 and IW) but still have Drookians in my heart. Just moved house with the wife so have unpacked all these little fuckers and made me want to paint again. Hoping that you're all well.
>>98935954Not disagreeing, but looking at the >>98935818stock lists it shows 3rd party stores get a 15% margin so long as they don't offer any discount.
>>98935914What sprue got the guy on the left?
>>98935954>we are making like sub 5% on all transactions,Why are your margins that thin, that's like Super Market level margins. If someone steals a single pack there goes your profit on the whole damn box it came from
>>98935981Do I have a Battleforce for you
>>98935982>with the wifemah waaaaaaaaf
>>98935981go to your local grognard and offer to suck his dick in exchange for beakie heads. otherwise, you’ll have to raid the HH boxes and get brainlet beakies.
>>98935988is it still regulation if I use those heads on my Night Lords?
>>98935915yeah but the issue arises when you let them dictate everything that happens in storeits always TCG that can't "stay in it's lane"
>>98935984they have to offer a discount or else no one buys there.
>>98935985blisters for gorkamorka nobz
>>98935985>>98936004here’s the body sprue. btw the listing for this is $80 so I’d recommend contacting ivan or chang.
>>98936010>btw the listing for this is $80 so I’d recommend contacting ivan or chang.Ho well that's a shame, i'd rather attemp it with plasticard and greenstuff at this pointVery nice boyz orks byw
>>98935988It is very funny to me that people's main complaint over primaris was that how samey they looked, had no details and had no variantion.But then the same people turn around and basically break an arm wanking these models off which aren't just more plain but have less variation but also have even less pose variability for basic infantry than primaris.Fascinating how humans function.
>>98936095You got 4 different squads or better design. Yes the HH kits are a fucking disgrace, but since intercessors had the exact same issues (5 men sprues with body/legs as one), it's an upgrade.Old SM multipart >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> HH marines >>>>> Primaris
>>98936095I hate HH as much as Primarines.
>>98936095You miss the obvious. You get one sprue of each of the different armor marks and build whatever the hell you like.
>>98936095>people's main complaint over primaris was that how samey they looked, had no details and had no variantion.I just prefer the mk.7 helmets, boxy jump packs, and scouts over marines in phobos armor.
>>98936105>but since intercessors had the exact same issues (5 men sprues with body/legs as one), it's an upgrade.It isn't, because every different box of primaris have interchangeable bodies so they have far more mix and match options than hh models which have 5 poses repeated then 5 more for assaults, and they're all the same poses in every single armor mark
If any modelchads wants a 40kg server to chill in with the thread regulars, here's the link. Its decently active with bros from NA, EU, and Aussie. https://discord.gg/RkHDasegH
>>98936095People unironically think that being able to twist the waist is endless poseability compared to primaris (they've only seen the pushfit sprues don't judge them for being slow).
>Watching the Kroot I just primed get destroyed by my autistic sons crash outDon't ever have kids.
>>98936140>primaris have interchangeable bodiesYou're not buying a 50$ box of hellblasters for 5 different poses of the same exact primaris marine (with hip plates).Yes, the pose thing is the big HH issue, but primaris don't fix that problems and add other ones on top.HH marines are garbage, but primaris are shit.This 10+ yo kit remains undefeated and it's a fucking scandal.
>>98936155>50 dollars for xRetard, you don't grind up the bits that come with the bodies, you buy both boxes and now you have far more mix and match options than 10 poses across the entire armySorry your subhuman mind can't put this together
Wide squat quarter turn left, wide squat quarter turn right, wide squat straight on, old marines really had it all!
>>98936145>switching and twisting bodies is endless poseabilityYes>compared to preposed bodyYes, that's just math>inb4 just use a knifeYou can also do that with the old system, it was even easier thanks to it.
>>98936159>I pay 100 bucks for 15 marines, but you're subhuman okay?
>>98936155As opposed to 90 dollars for 20 identical marines with the same 5 poses
>>98936165>15Hellblasters come in a box of ten, all battleline marines do, you'd know this if you were a tourist larper And you're going to be spending that much on your marines anyways, do you think you buy one box of tacticals and you're done?
>>98936160I never got the meme about how the old marines “squat”. all the marines squat because of how of how the power armor restricts their body.
>>98936121Do the MK2, 3, 4 & 6 sprues match up easily? I'll get MK4-7 when its an option, throw in a little crusader helm as a treat.
>>98935982nice to see you back
>>98936167>primaris intercessors + hellblasters: 135 $ for 15 marines (9$ / marine)>HH marines: 94 $ for 20 (4.7$ / marine)Do you really?
>>98936176You need some running, floating and landing poses from other kits.
>>98936105Primaris had more poses as a whole even for basic infantry stuff.Basically all primaris kits even if they were hellblasters, basic intercessors, infernus marines or assault intercessors, came with different poses.And largely all of the bodies, arms, backpacks and helmets were interchangable between the kits. Also most people bought multiple kits together, like basic intercessors + assault intercessors. Which would then allow you to switch couple of bodies between the squads so you can have couple of intercessors in running poses while you have few assault ints more "static" standing poses to add variety in poses.Horus Heresy as a whole pretty much comes with only 5 poses for basic infantry. It is honestly abysmal to look at HH's model range.
>>98936178All the arms and heads power packs and shoulders are interchangeable, the bodies are uber monopose and a bitch to alter
>>98936182hellblasters have 10 guys in a squad too
>>9893618220 of the same 5 marines repeated 4 times vs 20 of two different sets of 5 because you still don't understand hellblasters come in a box of 10 too, you lost
>>98936182This guy doesn't buy marines.
135 for 20 marines is still 41 more dollars for the same amount of marines, that's horrible.>>98936184>look at all these different poses for the same primaris marine armor>or the same pose for 4(+) different marine armorModern marine fags, why do you tolerate this?
>>98936197Look at how it shifts goalposts when it realizes it was wrong
>>98936155>You're not buying a 50$ box of hellblasters for 5 different poses of the same exact primaris marine (with hip plates).People do buy stuff like regular intercessors and even hellblasters together. That's not an unreasonable purchase to do at all, and mixing the bodies between the kits takes literally 0 brain power.You could use this same argument for how nobody is going to buy a 80$ kit of mk3 marines just so they can sprinkle them amongst their mk6 marines or to combine the armors.Which sounds equally silly.
>>98935982oh hey, take a look. I have that same commissar! we’re like brothers (this is an old pic when I was giving them a shower).
>>98936188>>98936189>135 dollars for 20 identical marines but in 10 different poses>better than 4+ choices in marines but 5 posesThe math is clear.
>>98936182>he unironically thinks that hellblasters come in a box of 10You literally are a tourist. Go back.
>>98936205That's why old marine kits were better, and HH is just slightly less worse than primaris.Both are shit but one is less shit.
>big mek in mega armor, can have three weapons or two and an invuln save>90pts>big mek, two weapons, options are sidegrades>100ptsmake it make sense
>>98936215>HH is just slightly less worse than primaris.It's not slightly less worse, they are objectively shittier.Having 5 poses for the entire game system is retarded and anyone defending that because "well it's little bit less shitty because I like the designs" is a midwit and exact cattle GW loves to have as customers.
>>98936209Yeah, you can enjoy spending 180 dollars to splash in a couple mark 3s or 270 dollars to splash in a couple mark 4s or 360 dollars and have the full range of monopose options and have some mark 2s too! (They're all worse designs that bastardized the classic forgeworld resin and plastic old mark marines)
>>98936220It's shit but people are pretending that it's normal and common to buy 3 different kits to mix for "variety", yet when you look at intercessors posted here it's made from the intercessor bodies.>it's less shit since I like the designs4 choices of marine (and counting) is better than 1, you liking the single offering of primaris marine and sucking it off somehow isn't a midwite opinion?Both lack variety in different ways, both suck, but having choice in marine styles is so much better than choice of which frame of walking your marine is in, how is that even an argument?
>>98936224For 180 dollars you have 40 marines. If you use them in 40k that's 4 full squads. You spend 260 for the same in primaris. That's 80 bucks extra. That's 80 bucks you can spend on fancy bits or extra options.Hello??
>>9893624140 marines in the same 5 posesYou are braindead goycattle
The plastic era simply doesn't know real variety in building their armies.
>>98936250>You are cattle for buying the same 4 marines in 5 poses>not like me, who buys the same marine in 10 poses
>>98936256The real magic here we sometimes forget about is you could buy individual bits directly.You want that particular guy? You buy it. And that single guy didn't cost 40 bucks.
What are some of the safest factions to build that won't ever be abandoned?
And now the zoomers are nostalgic for metal armies like they weren't a prohibitively expensive nightmare.
>>98936264Space marines.

>>98936264All of them, what are you talking about?
>>98936261Indeed, or like different heads for pennies each
>>98936272Here's the Bladeguard squad, a mix of the regular Bladeguard kit and the pushfit ones from Dawn of War.
>>98936271>wrongNah, those intercessors and those assault intercessors and those hellblasters and those desolation squad and those infernus are the same marines. But true, those vets are different, they have a tabard.
>>98936281And a Bladeguard Ancient, who I probably won't use in-game but figured I might as well paint him anyway while I was working on the Bladeguard.
>>98936185>the bodies are uber monopose and a bitch to alterI was worried that would be the case.

>>98933613Nurglings are either the worst one or surprisingly good depending on how goofy you want to get with splitting up the Nurglings in the box (even the independent ones) onto more bases than just the three they’re intended for
