It's pretty funny since the hobby has become even less accessible for kids.
Kinda crazy seeing a lot of flgs going from daycares around the 2000-2010's to manchildren debating area's now.

Just ran into a video interview with Gav Thorpe where he said in the past, there were two edicts in GW. The first was that there would never be a HH game. The reasoning behind it is that people are already buying enough Space Marines in 40K; why would they want to buy more? The second edict was that there wouldn't be any Primarchs in 40K. Since the thinking at the time is that they don't fit into 40K and the theme of "paradise lost". In 40K, the Primarchs no longer had a role and no part to play in the unfolding story of humanity's slow death. They were meant to be just figures of myth.

bae a cutie

DRUK bros....they're actually going to do it aren't they?
>Dark Eldar Combat Patrol gone from website
>No preview show announced in the near future
>0 leaks or rumors outside of the Lady Malys mini
They're going to unceremoniously dump out a new Dark Eldar Codex with only a hero model, a new god awful Homoculus or Wych Combat Patrol box, and several nerfs to push those shitty boxes, and then fuck off for another 2 years aren't they?

The only potential curve ball they could throw is that unreleased Kill Team that hasn't been leaked turns out to be Grotesques or Beast Pack but I doubt it.

>>96460049
here's the best i can do

This >>96460032

Some people will say "GW was always about the money" but it's not true, there was a time where the hobby was a priority alongside money.

Greed as always makes it all about itself, everything is turned to serve it.
Why make a good products that sells when we can sell less for more?

Got me some blue ink to paint stuff like psyker eyes and psychic glow efffect. Do I just apply it on a white-ish base as the paint is translucent and similar to contrast type paints?

>>96460009

>>96460022
>what changed
All the creative talent, who created the story, the setting, the model sculpts and aesthetic direction, the gameplay design choices, ie. the CREATORS of Warhammer 40k were all slowly pushed out and replaced by talentless corporate millennials. Not a single soul working at Games Workshop had a hand in its creation and they have less understanding of the game and setting than the fans do. Their primary objective is money and business.

It's funny when nuGW pushes put something like Femstodes and the true fans say "that's NOT lore accurate," but then the nu40kiddies fans say "it's the OFFICIAL lore, because it was released by Games workshop!" They don't realize that modern Games Workshop is not the creator of Warhammer, it's just wearing the skin suit of the Warhammer creators. It's like the modern Ashkenazi Israelis masquerading around as Biblical Judeans/Israelites, they are NOT the same people despite adopting their religion and living on their historical land. It's just LARPING under the same name.

turned out the soap opera audience spends like crazy, and the horus heresy family drama setting was ideal for them. nothing wrong with a company pivoting when they realise a mistake.

>>96460110
No one forces you to play like this

>>96460048
I dunno I like my guy, I had a lot of fun with him. He's far from the best thing I've painted but I'm not really chasing one consistent quality for all my stuff. I get a lot of satisfaction out of painting as many ways as possible so all my stuff is done to various standards

>>96459983
>>96459988
>>96460026
It's hilarious that they have no counter argument to this, because they know it's not a meme, it's unfortunately a very succinct and accurate portrayal of the state of modern warhammer

>>96460101
Is there a list of the old GW folks with their current status?
If there's the date at which they left GW that's a plus.

>>96460125
it's a bot replying to its own spamposts, ignore it

>>96459973
I agree with KT being a little too complicated. This can make for some crazy games if both people understand the rules but it’s otherwise a headache. If they’d gone for a Warcry approach to team-sized engagements instead it would have been a lot less complicated, albeit still imbalanced.

>>96460132
Oh my bad ty

>>96460134
I'm a 30 year old millennial. Warhammer was created by Boomers and Gen X whether you like it or not. Millennial "talent" has given us Marvel Cinematic Universe, Fortnite, Nuhammer, Overwatch, etc.

don't drag conversations from the shitposter's general into the real thread

I completely forgot about this commission for years and finally picked it up.
I forgot about it so long that I now paint my own models, though not this well.

Retard question - what do people even use inks for nowadays?

Kind of suspect all this might be that retard who bought a bunch of firstborn after the primaris launch. The seethe has a flavour of fake-grog to it.

>>96460142
Thanks anon, and I like tempering peoples expectations with my stuff, I don't like the pressure of people assuming all my stuff is to be up to the same standard. I don't really have fun trying to painting to other people's standards. I have a blast flip-flopping between speed painting and higher effort stuff. Also saw what was leading towards someone posting my model and falseflagging as me and decided to head them off at the pass and just post it

Hive scum and deamonhosts! We need like a cutesy little kill team of just retards in chains screaming around with poorly made weapond and flamethrowers, genuinely peakhammer. Don't got a daemonhost picture saved on my phone so I had to put picrel
>>96460101
I think the artwork is still holding fairly solid even if I despise a couple of the artists working there, specially those with the whole background color blur thing it's disgusting, but it's not all of them! I think models are higher quality than ever even if I hate monopose slop, it's more a tech thing than a creative thing though im sure if older GW had the tools they have now they could do better. The aesthetic direction is shit because we are moving into herohammer sloppa, specially the writing seems to be at an all time low. Dan Abnett got sucked off too much by the fanbase and fellow writers so now he's just doing whatever the fuck he wants no matter how absurd it all is.
>>96460058
It will be out before the year ends and trust me it's gonna be something fancy I believe, probably the best refresh this edition! GW leaks are always manufactured by insiders to try and build up hype and that's why they ring true so often, unless it's like some spanish store owner leaking boxes he got earlier. If they aren't leaking anything to youtubers it's cause they wanna make a big time surprise, drukhari are probably the most requested faction refresh as of late. It will be all monopose slop though and I fear it might be a Emp's Children type scenario.
>>96460163
Nice fucking work man

>>96460134
Wargaming is a boomer hobby and boomers are the SOVL of wargaming. Compare a boomer historical convention to what you see at a millennial/zoomer 40k convention. One is pure SOVL and passion, the other is soulless paypigs slop

Every single comp player is going to die. We'll start with you, anon. 40k will become a narrative first game again. GW will be forced to do it when they see how much death they've caused.

>A huge-ass one-of game that probably has some homebrew rules to it.
>>96460238
>A tournament setting where everyone has to play by the same rules and with each player probably doing 3-5 matches across the event

I hate the shit out of L-shaped Ruins too anon but to put it in Magic terms you're comparing the one table in the corner playing Planechase Commander to the rest of the LGS that's playing a Modern tournament. I'd like it if we got to see more asymmetrical table setups to complement the asymmetrical deployments in the newest Chapter Approved deck, but I know if they did that tourneyfags would start arguing over shit like "Why does my opponent get the good half of the board?"

Dark Eldar refresh is coming. I can feel it.

>>96460311
First try at sculpting. The milliput was a little flakier than I expected. Only read after the fact that you're supposed to lubricate the tools to stop it sticking to them. Came out well enough for a first attempt though.

>>96460339
It's going to be a bright day when i get the chance to glass majorcuck at the pub.
I think the only lorechuuba i don't mind is Baldermort, i haven't watched his video's in a good while but when i watched his wordbearers and nighlords vids they were pretty neat with their 1st person ministories and an actual explanation that wasn't just a retelling of a lexicum artical.

>>96460275
Fair enough. Plenty of official GW artists still give a fuck though because they're aware the artwork and the aesthetics are a major selling point for the setting. Hell some of Kopinski's works are what got me interested in it to begin with after hearing one of my siblings go on and on about it. If they could just hire cheap asshats for everything they would, but they can't. While there are definitly more mediocre artists now than back in the day there are also tons of very great pieces being made. That and codexes still using art from 2003 to this day.
>Artistically, no
Fair enough, Emperor's Children situation was truly absolutely a blast to the nuts, lost potential of a legion. It seems the only ones getting decent models these days are xenos factions and even than the eldar update was still kinda dissapointing. I liked the IG stuff though and if we can call Admech as nu-gw it's absolurely a army I adore but don't have the skills to paint.

>>96460399
Assuming you're not that faggot samefagging his bait, please stop replying to low effort shitposting.

>>96460404
Nice. You can get rid of a little bit of flakiness by applying some plastic cement to it. Miliput is partially susceptible to it.

>>96460398
That seems at the very least to be an overreaction

>>96460422
Why so upset?

>>96460361
Treat a jug of superclean like a forever investment. The 20 bucks you'll spend on one jug replaces buying ISO for the rest of your life. I even let my jug dry out completely one time accidentally cause I left the lid off and it turned into mothing but dry crystals. I just poured water back into it and shook it up and all the crystallized degreaser rehydrated perfectly and worked like a brand new jug. Shit is some kind of magic I swear.

>>96460217
Amazing table.

>>96460404
You can also smooth out milliput by letting it cure for a bit, and then running over the surface of the putty with a wet paintbrush

>>96460311
Here is the start of ye olde sergeant Cleutin. He is supposed to just have a bolt pistol and a box but I feel it would be a little boring so I'll give him a banner too. Got a lot of sculpting ahead of me, gonna make some leopard pelts.

>>96460311
primed and basecoated
might get started on painting tonight if I don't get called in

>>96460448
What's the major diference that superclean brings? I can get 5L of metho for about $11 and that does wonders for stripping paint.

>>96460399
The issue here is that historical games lend themselves to creating narrative and immersive tables, whereas 40k by design and it's community are both hostile to any creative expression

>>96460466

>>96460018

Wut? Are you part of their social media engagement team?

>>96460461
Looks great but I'm not sold on the storm bolter in the back.

>>96460460
>leopard pelts
Based.
>>96460461
Cool conversion, but that stormbolter bugs me. Is it supposed to be in a "stowed away" position?

>>96460404
Get some greenstuff and mix it with the miliput, it'll make your life much easier and you can still file. Also pick up some clay shapers from amazon, the light blue ones with the white rubber tips -- they're about 5 quid, they come in a pack of five different shapes with alternate metal tips for more precise work where a firmer tool is needed for shaping, and they are absolute game changers. Also, you will be surprised how little greenstuff you need for most tasks. Less is more is a golden rule with sculpting. I recommend getting a few tubs of petroleum jelly to sculpt with, but you'll need to wash your minis after they cure, as it can sometimes give your paints trouble. I've never had an issue with it but I've been told so and wash them accordingly. Some people advocate water, but I find that a pain because of constantly having to reapply the water, and it also makes it difficult to feel what I'm doing, so I don't recommend it personally. Others insist upon moisturising cream such as Nivea or E45 or whatever it's called, but for me a bit of lip balm, vaseline, or something, really makes the difference. Sometimes it makes your pieces less sticky though so it's best to apply it first... Just keep going, you'll surprise yourself with what you're capable of doing.

>>96460339
Mspaints is comfy. I like that he focuses on low stress painting, and only doing stuff he thinks is cool.

Cheers lads, I'm looking forward to figuring out a new part of the hobby.

>>96460476
I'm talking about the actual hobby mate and the pricing of it, but even back in the day GW employee's would usually throw in the short stories that tied into which ever starter set a kid was getting, like battle of skull pass and assult on blackreach.
Honestly the only people I've seen buy those novels are hobby Dad's getting it for their kids to try and get them interested in the hobby.

>>96460504
Looks better from behind but I think you should consider changing it for a servo arm or something.

>>96460504
Can you rotate it so it points downward and it's more obvious that it's "not currently in use"?

>>96460496
>The "hobby" in question

>>96460464
Superclean penetrates better. Iso can only really affect the top layer, whereas superclean rips it's way through to the plastic. It means you don't really have to scrub stuff the same way you do with alcohol. I've stripped models primed with BBQ spray paint and just rinsed the paint off under the sink after a soak for an hour

Baldermort isn't bad. Haven't listened to him in years but I remember liking his stories. The one I remember best is a great crusade marine on a low tech world tanking fire from an army of muskets and artillery from old cannons to deliver a dataslate to the enemy commander to convince him that it was in the planets best interest to rejoin the imperium without further resistance.

>>96460557
At least one other person pointed it out in this very thread.

I liked Prospero Burns, having the main character be a non-marine human swept up by Legion bullshit was fun, and the wolves were done well in that book with minimal flanderisation.

>>96460705
I agree,
>THE FATE OF THE UNIVERSE
is an overused and usually poor premise in genre fiction.

so dark eldar aren't getting a codex this edition right?

>>96460759
They will, a week before the release of the 11th iteration of the core rules. WH4K is the greatest miniatures game in the world.

>>96460651
Valedor and Outgunnee, probably.

>>96460759
Sure fucking seems like it. Best case scenario they're getting a refresh as part of the 11th release.

>>96460744

It's only weird if you make it weird

>>96460797
You take that back
I've got both. Deldar are getting an end of edition release like WB/Guard in 9th and Orks are getting the 11th box to coincide with DoW4. I'd be perfectly fine with Deldar getting the starter box though as long as they don't refresh shit that already looks good, like Kabalites and Raiders

I was informed that there were autocannon+jump pack equipped Chaos Devastators in 2nd edition, much like modern Suppressor Squads, but the Slaves to Darkness book doesn't show this. What's going on?

>>96460837
...further, jump packs cannot be used in the same activation as move-or-fire weapons, so jump pack+heavy weapons wouldn't have been used together.

I was informed Suppressors had precedent. /40kg/ wouldn't mislead me, would it?

>>96460837
>270 points for a T3, 1W unit
lmao what shit is this?

>>96460814

>>96460133
White as in into the ink or unto the base that I'll apply the ink to? I was thinking of using on the Patriarch's big-head where he touches his brain.
>>96460144

Weird, considering Dark Eldar Scourges had jump packs and Heavy weapons. Does your whole troll boil down to, "there's no precedence to a jump squad with heavy weapons if they don't have autocannons and cannot fire on the move"?

>>96460930

You tried.

>>96460930
that's because you're a fat fuck

>>96460967
I'm sure many players in 2nd. Edition were happy to pay the extra cost for both jump packs and heavy weapons, while being restricted to using one at a time.

>>96460959
Thanks, I got some spare test minis that GW gives away so I'll probably butcher some before doing the main thing. Also I think the brain-matter should go further into his skull, don't know why I stopped there.

So any of you have purchase plans before the price increase? It actually is about 5% per kit with characters and troops getting the biggest increases while Combat Patrols see pretty much no increase. They got the 4% average because some things just get a 1$ increase to even the number when something is 69$ for example.

>>96461022
>So any of you have purchase plans before the price increase?
Yes.

>>96460994
eh, it's a decent enough fade, and it makes sense based on the shape of his temples (the fact that he has temples at all, in fact) for it to be shrink-wrapped in skin, so it's right about where it should be, imo.

My orks suffered and horribly died. They probably should've stayed in bed.

don't reply to the spambot

>>96461135
a fool and his money are soon parted

>>96461156
Looking good! I'm putting mine together right now. The kit's a lot easier to assemble than I thought it'd be.

>>96461135
It's table sports.

This is what your hobby has become. Will you stand up against it, or will you lie down and accept it like a dog?

>>96461172
Oh yeah it's a wonderful kit. I like how the only real subassembly I had to do was painting the base and the bottom of the hover pads before glueing it down.

>>96461130
Amazon shows listings for your local distributors/logistics centers/sellers. It's never going to show you the stock of a distribution center like 3-12 hours away, it'll just tell you it's out of stock most of the time

>>96461156
What silver metallic do you use? It looks really smooth and nice.

>>96461156
How does this thing attach to the base? Clear flights stem in the center? Also looks great btw

I hope the mods get back from vacation soon

>>96461203
Vallejo duraluminum. The best silver on the market by a mile and don't let anybody tell you otherwise.
>>96461204
It's honestly an unfortunate flight stand, at least by my standards. It's a piece that glues into the model during the early stages of assembly and can't just be slotted in at the bottom after everything else, so you have a part of your base always attached to the model, meaning you can't easily paint the base separately. You have to set up your base so that you can glue the rock down in the center of it after making the terrain.
Additionally, it's height makes the hover pads nearly touch the base themselves, so if you're like me and want the illusion of your hover vehicle, I don't know, hovering above rocky terrain? You have to build another rock for it to sit on so it'll actually fly above them.

>>96461197
Don't talk it down too much anon
I paid for training and when I got home from winning my local tourney my wife's boyfriend clapped me on the shoulder and told me how proud of me he was. I know my dad would think so too but it's a shame he's too busy to take my calls anymore...

I was wondering why the threads seemed twice as bad this weekend despite no reveals
>>96461248
>It's a piece that glues into the model during the early stages of assembly and can't just be slotted in at the bottom after everything else, so you have a part of your base always attached to the model, meaning you can't easily paint the base separately.
That is fucking weird

show me a good lelith kitbash. the current model sucks.

>>96461248
>Vallejo duraluminum
I use Vallejo Metal Color Steel and I find it a bit speckled, sadly my hobby store won't stock anything until October or so. When not using with an airbrush it also separate a lot on the palette a lot, but the coverage is so good.

>>96461257
Tell us what you dislike about the current model. Nobody wants to play 20 questions with you shitting on every suggestion without providing any context

>>96461261
Don't use it on a wet palette, it'll just become too watery as it's already thinned for airbrush use. I bought a little painters cup sheet just for duraluminum (and mixing shades) because it's wet enough as is.

>>96461261
I find all the metal colours separate very quickly, but just having a stir stick on the side means you can quickly stir it when it starts to split

>>96461271
Alternatively, bottle caps are decent well palettes in a pinch, they just aren't very reusable

>>96461156
A little mock-up of the kapricus with its flock of bikes.
I really love the hover-tech in votann and this model has revealed this information to me.
I want a whole army of these flying things.

>>96460022
>unfolding story of humanity's slow death
Is 40K the story of humanity's death or survival/endurance?

just me or are a lot of "competitive" lists quite light on battleline units, and focus more on other things?

>>96460022
GW realized that generic space opera slop sold better than something with an actual artistic vision

>>96461267
I mostly want inspo. the pose is baffling and the hair is too...wide? plus GW female face syndrome

>>96461304
Whoever decided to put fucking GREEN TEXT on a PURPLE-COLORED BACKGROUND deserves to get shot.

>>96459983
>>96460026
Do you guys think GW will reverse this in 11th? I don't mind tournaments and events, but I cannot stand these shitty tables and terrain. I don't understand how people look at these setups and are okay with it.

>>96461297
It depends on the faction, GSC likes to run 4x20 + 1x10 Neophytes and 4x5 acolytes at bare minimum on a tourney list which are all battleline.

>>96461326
don't reply to the spambot

>>96461326
Fuck no they won't, it'll probably somehow get worse and then sweatfags will praise it as "THE ULTIMATE BALANCED COMPETITIVE EXPERIENCE" or something

>>96461297
It's not in gws best interest to make the models everyone owns the good ones. That's why the competitive lists are weird shit, like plasma inceptors, invader atvs, DC jump packers, etc.. that you wouldn't already have. I'm surprised this thing hasn't been put in units of 3 and made utterly broken

>>96461320
So you hate the pose, you hate the hair, you hate the face. What do you like about the model that makes you think you could kitbash away all the things you don't like? Start from there, and consider whether you actually can kitbash it all away, or whether you're better off buying a different kit or model

>>96461341
That thing once charged into me, funniest shit ever.

>>96461248
I don't know what vallejo put in their metal color paints but the coverage on all of them is insanely good. Even when painting by brush one coat is usually enough.
My only problem with them is that they're so thin that they can sometimes act like washes and get into places you don't want them to

>>96461326
How is gw going to stop you from playing games with your choice of terrain? Is it really a good thing to prevent beginners from being able to play on their kitchen tables with books and pop cans as terrain? If you want to play with cool terrain then you need to build cool terrain and bring it with you to your games, otherwise you can't expect to have the same standards or like the same style of table as you. If you look at paintball there's like 3 different archetypes of fields. Speedball fields are like 40k tourney tables, milsim is super realistic buildings, and scenery, and woodsball is somewhere in between. People generally gravitate towards one or two archetypes and don't have much interest in the remaining one. 40k is the same thing. Some people want the game to be super balanced, and don't care for narrative/thematic tables and terrain. Some people want a purely narrative experience and could care less about balance.

>>96461078
My LGS's crusade "wrapped up" upon phase 2 of Nachmund ending

>>96461350
>whether you're better off buying a different kit or model
I am totally open to this. In fact, I expected to for the actual kitbash. I'd love to start with a not-Lelith base - was considering the regular Succubus.

>>96461022
>Was thinking of getting nuVulkan + Salamanders Combat Patrol + the DoW box from Target + a bunch of other things to start up a Salamanders army as next year's big army project (Already have a slew of Marine stuff from various lots + a Land Raider I traded for)

>Don't know if I want to drop ~$300 on minis that'll probably just sit on a shelf until January or buy them later when the whole thing'll be like $20-30 more.

The thing is I have the Combat Patrol magazine to keep my plastic addiction sedated for like another year and a half on top of what I've got in the backlog already, so I'm not really in a rush to buy new models I say this after buying an extra copy of the issue that comes with a Wraithlord for $30 off ebay just this weekend.

>>96461326
Unironically it's only going to get worse like it's fine every other battle pass season (edition)

>>96461448
Just pick any female elf body and give it two daggers and ass some long hair and you have yourself a Lelith.

I hate how cucked real humans are in 40k. You don't even get to choose what evil you serve.
Tau Auxiliaries aren't even in the game at all, Chaos Cultists aren't an army, just little subjects of a middle manager trans "human" servants.
Gene-stealer cults are barely human, but for them VICTORY means complete genocide, they can't even award your loyal service.
I am a human, the writers are human, why is humanity portrayed like this?

>>96461477
From the latest lore about Gue'vesa, they are given gear identical to fire warriors + Devilfish and Hammerheads.
Basically, everything except suits which so far only one Gue'vesa was allowed to pilot.
So what would be the point of making Gue'vesa models? Just convert guardsmen into fire warriors count-as.

>>96461492
30

>>96459972 (OP)
add GPMGs to guard or let them have heavy weapons teams back in infantry blobs

>>96461492
The thing is they have 2 weapon choices, flamers or bolters. You want about 40 in total. 20 flamers and 20 bolters. Currently we only use flamers so next edition probably bolters will shine.

>>96460126

>>96461468
>>96461481
Can we all stop and agree that Lelith would look hyper cute with a diapee taped on her tushie?
Also I have a question. Why is there a severe lack of ABDL art in 40K circles?

>>96461514
>>96461521

>>96461468
I dunno, this one kind of gets the idea across but it's way too armored. You probably need to use one of the witch elves from Fantasy/AoS as the base

No chance for a Temur flip card eh

>>96461334
But you can have competition and balance without shit tables. I used to play infinity and one of the best things about tournaments was playing on unique tables.

>>96461387
They can't stop me from playing on any sort of terrain, but everyone else in my lgs and every lgs around me play on these terrain and the specific GW terrain layouts. It's become the standard way to play here even if people aren't going to tournaments. This includes narrative crusade campaigns as well. Everyone is playing on the same fucking table. Have I asked my friends to play on a different table? Yes, and we have played on cool tables. But more than not, I'm in the minority and playing on the GW terrain layout.

>>96461465
You say that. But GW has proven that they're able to adjust their predatory behavior and be consumer friendly. Last edition, people had to buy countless Chapter Approved books that balance/break their game every 2-3 months. This edition all army updates have been free pdfs. This terrain/table setup thing is also a new thing is a 10th edition addition that was initially started by 3rd party tournament organization. So GW CAN adapt, whether it's for the better or not is unclear. It's just bizarre. Because GW doesn't do thing unless there's something to sell, and they still haven't made terrain for the "footprints". I think this only proves how rushed out 10th was.

I'm a secondary that only recently can actually afford miniatures, I'm almost done painting my first models (new Votann combat patrol), and even doing it slapchop with contrast paints I feel like an immense retard when it comes to using a brush. When should I switch to painting correctly?

The Gue'vesa were never genocided. Each lore update about them mentions their numbers are increasing.

beyond the DoW lore tidbit, the only time a remember Gue'Vesa being directly killed by Tau was during the warp nightmare that the 4th sphere expansion when the Tau realised their gue'vesa were power the greater good psychic entity.
It's the reason why most 4th sphere survivors are so distrustful of auxillary units now.

>>96461782
>almost done painting my first models
>I feel like an immense retard
I promise you this never goes away, you just slowly get better at everything without noticing but still feel like you're mostly retarded. I think it's worth it to try both slapchop and traditional styles as a beginner, and to pick the one you find the most fun, NOT the one you're best at right off the bat. You will get better, but while you are learning you may as well enjoy yourself. Brush control takes a long time to polish, but you can get good brush control doing traditional or slapchop stuff

>>96461794
Jewish population is also increasing, so I guess the Holocaust didn't happen either.

You shouldn't have bought contrasts to begin with
Ditch GW paints entirely and buy valejo
Do this. Do this no matter what. The only thing worth getting from GW is maybe, MAYBE the shades. And that you can do on your own.
Don't fall for the scam. The pots are designed to get paint caked on the inner rim of the lid and dry out faster.

And if you need practice, don't buy more models. Buy the purple engine degreaser from walmart and repaint your armies until you're satisfied. The degreaser strips paint clean off and doesn't react at all with model plastic.

>>96461782
as someone that started with slapchop, my advice would be to avoid the idea of "painting correctly", and instead think of slapchop as a tool you have the option to use when its appropriate. this is then true for every technique you practice with. that said, i would have started before you began slapchopping, as in, I would not actually recommend starting with slapchop. so, I would switch to acrylic layering right away, or maybe try highlighting and shading your existing slapchop minis.
as for brush handling, there's no big secret. choke up on it, rest your hands properly, and practice.

>>96461795
Hmm, that's not bad. I'll bet there's some cheap ones out of box on ebay.

They could be the underfunded backwater that they used to be. Rank and file still functionally being essentially reskinned IG and PDF forces. Tau arms and armor on heavy weapon teams and elite units, with vehicles that are in rules and in universe are horrific fusions of IG vehicles that have Tau spare parts welded on.

>>96461816
Damn, even my Necrons have more sex than that.

Post Necrons

>>96461819
Scerially. Never buy Citadel paints, tools, supplies, etc.

>>96461810
It is so dumb that the T'au empire can manifest a minor chaos god. I will never get over it.

>>96461782
>When should I switch to painting correctly?

Never. The most important thing is to find a method you like that gives results you can accept.

Are there beakie primaris?

>>96461810
That's hardly an empire-wide policy. The fourth sphere didn't kill them in transit. The daemons killed all non-tau and then moved on to the tau.The fourth sphere after reunifying with the empire, committed a lot of war crimes and covert murders of non-tau. They were discovered.

The fourth sphere were stopped and Commander Surestrike was removed from duty.

>>96461733
>implying anyone could edit that fast

>>96461820
Dig for recast ones. I dunno if my thicc big tt Chinese wife Miranda has them, dorkminiatures might have them, I can't remember if cheapenfaust has necro stuff, but give them a check too. It's a 30$ sprue from gw, so recast it's probably like 4-7 bucks

>>96461814
In this context, a human holocaust never happened.

>>96461805
It's not exactly a 2000 dollar model anon I don't see how that's unbelievable. Ironically I also got the new one too since I split that sisters Deldar box with someone else years ago and it came with her, haven't decided what to do with it yet

>>96461819
Don't tell beginners to throw out all their paints and buy new ones like it'll change their first minis drastically. You can paint great stuff with citadel, you can paint great stuff with other brands. It's better to learn to paint with the stuff you have, and when you start running out you can replace your gw stuff if you don't like it

>>96461810

Totally agree, Warhammer 40,000 is the greatest, most popular miniatures wargame on Earth. These people don't know what they're talking about. They're mixed-up.

>>96461836
>That's hardly an empire-wide policy
Yeah i know, during the 4th's very own event horizen experience it freaked the fuck out of the T'au.
I'll have to try and find the more indepth bit of fluff about the experimental warp jump without a gellar field and that warp entity powered by the auxila belief in the greater good.

>>96461819
Thanks for the tip on the degreaser, right now I'm only buying up to a 1k army list I wanted to play against friends but degreaser can mitigate pissing away money on plastic to try and get better at painting. I will probably finish off these before I move to other paints though. Do you also recommend against something like Army Painter Speedpaint?
>>96461820
Some of these smaller Votann models seem like a huge pain in the ass to paint traditionally, but maybe I'll try it with a vehicle once I can get some regular paints in the general color scheme I was trying

Anybody else think the choice of basing here is really bad and hurts more than helps?

Nope, he's just been chilling in the back of my display case while I've been working on my secondary faction :X

>>96461823
A project that I eventually want to do is a GSC army where it's just regular humans but their all union thugs.
Not certain what i'll do for the more mutated GSC units, but i'm leaning towards the necromunda gangs, like purestrain as a bunch of methed-out offshore fifo's

>>96461891
Speed paints and contrasts are interchangeable

>>96461919
If GSC had suicide units it's be the peak insurgent faction. They even have the technicals/bikes for it

>>96461927
Then is "You shouldn't have bought contrasts to begin with" in regard to buying that type of paint, or just buying it from GW?

>>96461928
Every faction should have suicide unit. We currently only have two: Spore mines and bomb squigs

>>96461816
lmao if u don't understand the lore just say that lil bro

>>96461907
And if people don't stop saying it did happened, it'll happen again.

>>96461939
And while we are at it, the Kin of the Leagues of Votann don't fuck too. Their cloning facilities are bugging out, so their numbers are decreasing.
Which brings to question what's the point of having women Kin?

>>96461902
I dunno, why did they put Fulgrim in FFXIV?

>>96461931
I'm not that anon, I like contrasts quite a bit, and I like speed paints quite bit. But they are pretty much the same quality and work about the same. I think that as long as you're using contrasts and speed paints the way they are intended that you'll have a fine time learning.

Post Games!!!

>>96461946
That's not fulgrim, that's a well written compelling villain with a good design

Funny because I'm dominating with Orks in my Tyrannic war Crusade here's some ideas
2x tankbustas in a trukk with the upgrade to get +1 bs and 14" move,
10x flash gitz and mega mek with mek kaptin enh with stealth upgrade and fnp 6 (slap em in any detachment),
turn 1 alpha strike 6 inch charge with a weirdboy+20boyz+wboss with the +2 charge strat and +1 charge upgrade,
wboss with ap -3 dam 3 putting stealth on the unit (now legendary with ignore invuln relic can go with alpha strikers),
t13 battlewagon to stat check

Don't be fooled there's nothing narrative about crusade it's the ultimate waacfags paradise

>>96462002
Who?

>>96462008
he's trying to make himself relevant, ignore him

>>96462011
What did you just say?

>>96461936
That is super weird that the game about a a militant theocracy, fighting mostly other groups of insane religious freaks that nobody has suicide units.
It doesn't make sense for every army to have suicide units though.

>>96462006
NTA but why do people like Tankbustas? They seem pretty fucking mid from what I can tell; although maybe at S9 they're pretty good at busting Termies.

I wanna make an army and play on Tabletop Sim (4 fun) on the Discord.
What should I build first and how many points?
T-Sons, Necrons?
Is it too powergamey to do Imp/Chaos Knights? I just wanna try some 40k on the table, not perfect a tournament list or anything

>>96462035
I wouldn't call it building an army if you're playing tts. Just pick whatever sounds cool since the models dont matter to you and ask your opponents whether they want to play 1k, 2k, or 3k.

>>96461944
Never met a hot midget?

>>96462068
Well you still gotta build a list, I guess.
Do most people just play the same list? Is there a single head to head game free of netdecking at every level?

>>96462034
I don't run them so much now in normal games but they can use their once per battle to easily pop a rhino or chunk something that another unit can clean up
They also work with SAG mek and convey their +1 hit and wound to him AND their once per battle, which gives Orks an option to potentially fight over firing lanes which was huge and I took 2x until the points hike. Like you say they can easily threaten terminator profiles from the safety of a trukk and they become a lot more useful in crusade where it's easier to get the +1 to bs/hit

>>96462072
Most people play completely different lists based mostly on the models they think are cool. The only people netlisting are tourney players

damn tau fire warriors look like that?

>>96462221
I missed that assuming that surely Devastator would have Autocannons.

While this is unrealistic I'd love to see James spend an edition doing more ancient model interpretations from this era instead of bloating out new units. Eleventh Edition with a new kill team enhanced unit update sprue and two to three RT-3e sculpt reimaginings per faction instead of the bloat would be neat.

>>96462319
It's for gemstones traditionally, it's just a contrast paint with a shit ton of gel medium. Very similar working properties to blood for the blood god. Pic related isn't mine but is a good reference of what it does over various undercoats

>>96462332
Just lose then, you're fighting one of the stronger melee armies, and he's supplementing it with high damage shooting. You're going to have to be better than him on movement and threat assessment or he's going to bend you over the table and make you bounce and moan on it.

>>96462276
Yeah, both Fantasy and 40k abandoned highly individualized, properly-Chaosy Chaos Warrios/Chaos Marines early on. Can understand the reasoning, sort of (at least for 40k, not for fantasy), but still unfortunate.

There's no point in engaging with the fisher pincer guy.

how the FUCK is a new person expected to build paint purchase and learn how to play an army? the barrier of entry to this hobby seems sky high. im still not even done building my army bc I ran out of money

>>96462410
you're engaging with him by replying to that post

>>96462412
A new person isnt supposed to jump straight to 2k. Buying a combat patrol and adding to it slowly is how it's supposed to be done.

>>96460101
If it was made by GW or has GW's approval, it is canon.

>>96462412
Combat patrol or kill team are a good way to start playing smaller games these days, but really just ask people if they want to play smaller point games.

>>96462412
I wont pretend the initial investment isnt highish because it it, but you're best of just buying a squad and a small paintset and seeing if you like the painting part first anyway
after that if you do then build your army. GW prices are too high but even that aside honestly this hobby is decent at a $$$ to time spent ratio if you enjoy it

>>96462412
Tbh I just offer to teach people with my shit. I don't have a lot (1k of 2 armies, more or less), but throwing dice is army agnostic and may be enough for people to see if investing is wise.

As much of a slur as it is here, maybe TTS? The entry barrier for GW is retardedly high.

>>96462124
Yeah this is a modeling hobby. The game just exists to give you something to do with your cool guys. If you want some mathematically solved hyper technical game then go play chess, or go!, or shogi, or mahjong. The game is fun, but it's fun because it's a cool cinematic experience not because it's a perfectly balanced game, or hyper competitive, or built with the concept of keeping individual strats and armies viable long term. Everything changes every 3 months or so, so what was good in the fall generally won't be good in the winter, and what was good in the winter generally won't be good in the spring, and so on and so forth. And generally at any given time there is one list that is way too strong. This is not too much of a bad thing because it takes a while to build and paint an army, and by the time you paint up 2kpts you usually only have a couple months before it gets rebranded by the dataslate. My schizo theory is that gw know this serves two purposes
1. Waacfags will buy a new army every 3 months if it means they can win, and will just build and paint it like shit to get it done
>everyone else gets the luxury of running whatever they want, and only occasionally will they end up having a handful of broken units, and only for a short time. Which means they can work on their dudes slowly and carefully without getting bummed out that their friends don't want to play against them
This keeps people buying stuff, but this also has the benefit of allowing you to run the guys you think are cool, without having to spend the rest of your life being called a waacfag by your friends

>>96462448
mahjong isn't mathematically solvable

>>96462412

Lad just go slow its not a race. Just pay attention to the things in your list, if they go oop make sure you start downloading the legends datasheets once an edition or so just to have them on hand. If it takes you ages to paint then it takes you ages. As long as you're having fun painting that's all that matters. If you feel the need to learn about the game right fucking now then go online and watch some battle reports, or play with some gay grey shit for a few games while you're working on stuff

>>96462525
Interesting if true, but also the only people it's priced out are the people who don't need more expenses to make their lives harder. This hobby is pretty reasonable provided you make a wage that keeps you secure. We will absolutely see a decrease in players from the lower classes. But this has been a premium hobby for a long time. If you are stressing out at the price of eggs, or milk right now, you do not make enough for it to be a smart idea to participate in this hobby. Every hobby sees a dip in hobbyists during recessions with the exceptions of hobbies that help take the load off your bank account like small scale farming, baking, cooking, etc. This does fucking suck, for everyone, but this is the reality of an economy that ebbs and flows. This is what being an adult is. Realizing that unless you set yourself up right, everything is not tuned for you to afford it is part of growing up.

>want to make a themed SM army
>look up infernus marines
>look at salamanders detachments, forgefathers looks good

I suddenly don't care about legends anymore. I want to try this.

No clue what the rest can be filled with. Flamers preferably. Centurion assault squad sucks hard dicks. "Oh you get a few flamers among bolters" isn't good enough. I'm thinking melee to fill the rest out, which is roughly 500 points.

Assault int sergeants get hand flamers too. Contemptors can also take two cc claws, with flamers which fit into your part flamer part fister army. Also mortis dreads are so rad, one day I want one of each. I think jump packers get hand flamers too but I dunno how many

I finally got around to building the blightlords I've had for a minute and I'm in awe at how CHONKY they are. They look a lot heftier than Deathshrouds, it's great. Especially this guy if you build him with the axe rather than the sword.

>>96460018
This is basically every hobby nowadays. Manchildren have money, kids do not. And there are a lot more manchildren than kids anyway.

i think vashtorr is cool. The reveal trailer of all the garbled speech was low effort but sold me on the technodemon theme. I do think vashtorr should have big tits and a fat ass though and should take over computers by bullying the servitors attached to them

Got my kapricus built up. Managed to have enough spare bits from the kit and my yaegirs that I got a free passenger out of the deal. I almost want to put him on a base but I don't have anything to run him as and his pose is slanted a bit that fits sitting in the truck bed better than just standing static on a base. The vehicle and passenger aren't attached to each other or the base yet so I can paint em easier.

>>96462641
It would be more theme based in the reality of D&D than just shoving a bunch of wood with wheels and calling it possible to go everywhere with it.

Has it been a good thread, anons?

>>96462477
>inflation
Inflation isn't 4% and it's only some products changing prices.
4% is the AVERAGE.

>>96462618
I always felt like the votann weapons are super cool looking, but I don't really care for dwarves at all. Maybe one day I'll do some insane shit and throw their guns on some deathwatch marines or something because I love that they're obviously scifi themed, but not quite tau levels of scifi

>>96462670
Started good, went bad for a bit, then the mods returned from their labour day vacation(legitimately hope they had a good day off) and cleaned it up and it got pretty comfy towards the end. Still have 22 images to go until image limit and were two pages away from pg8, so it could easily turn to shit at any moment for the remainder of the threads life

>>96462678
>it got pretty comfy towards the end.
That is good to hear.
>22 images left

Here's some anon's fire warrior HQ I liked a lot so I saved it.

>>96462681
This one was really nice. The whites got a bit of texture, but the skin, warpaint and everything else is relatively smooth. I think this might be one of robotjones models cause the basing scheme, skin and armour seem close to his stuff

Just posting the best piece of thicc 40k art ever made while the thread still has some juice feel free to post something better.
Pro tip
you cant

>>96462686
>paint texture
I didn't notice it, but it's okay
I like the mix of tan, blue and white, it has all aspects of T'AU:
The tan fits the advanced military/technology.
The white fits the culture/doctrine side of T'AU.
The blue makes it pop and is the natural color of T'AUs.

The remaining black, gold and reddish-brown adds to it all without stealing the show of the white or blue.

When I start a T'AU army I'm taking heavy inspiration from it and picrel.

>>96462678
The general has been a mess these last few days. Must have been people taking advantage of absent mods and jannies. Don't know what else could have caused it.

Heeey I just looked it up. Fucking Blood Angels gets this fucker:

As long as the work is done, all is good.
Clever girl...

anyone have a good space marine list that doesn't use too many vehicles? i want to mostly use infantry with a little support

>>96462697
I think the fact that there was nude transgirls getting posted with their gocks out on Saturday that didn't get removed until today tells you that we lost mods or jannies for a bit and some faggots jumped on it. Well see what happens going forward, cause you can't really bring a janny from another thread cause unless they play the game they'll have no clue what's shotposting and what is content aside from fairly obvious bait posts

>>96462681
Hey that one's mine. Glad you liked it.
>>96462686
To think a day may come when my mini would be confused for one of skinwizard's.

>>96462724
Have you considered 2000pts of dreadnoughts

We need proper dragons in 40k.

>>96462749
Hey man, you got... You got any more T'AUs in there, man?

>>96462749
Are we in a new era of doakesposting and Steve1989mreposting? Because I would accept it if so

>>96462624
That applies to pure humans just as much as abhumans

>>96462755
Sorry, it was just a one-off for the collage. I got a single cadre fireblade as a present years ago and it was just laying around gathering dust.

>>96462776
Well, it was a beautiful one-off then.

Is there no powerfist in the nemesis claw box?

what?

>>96462689
ah ah.. argenta?

>>96462790
Is there a powerfist in the base legionaries box?

>>96462801
its a fucking wargear option, you'd better hope so

>>96462754
That's not a real dragon, that's an aerolfos

>>96462801
yeah there is

>>96460544
carnac this is just you fighting with yourself and nobody cares about what you find on ebay

>>96462805
I see it on the sprue, so there is a power fist option.

Crisis suits refresh when

>>96462749
carnac, you sure do pretend to be an awful lot of different people

>>96462826
circle it in the image for me.

>>96462842
Which T'AU kits are the oldest?
Vehicles and Crisis suits?
Stealth suits and the sniper drones are old too.

Probably will get a refresh in 11th.

>>96462842
Dunno much about Tau but hopefully when they do refresh crisis suits they make them more in line with how Farsight's new suit looks. They did a really good job with his. Also give them a melee variant for him to actually lead.

>>96462842
>2015

>>96462863
Isn't the point of farsight's suit to be unique?

I wouldn't say no to a unique farsight enclave melee suits unit.

OKay I found the powerfist.

ISSUE: pages were stuck together and the powerfist then was still hard to find in that.

Thanks all.

>>96462868
Tau crisis suits should just get Primaris'd where the new scale suits are actually a new development in the lore and are being rolled out and fielded alongside the old ones still.

>>96462863
>He's so cooooool
What's farsght been up since bailing out the tau during the 3rd sphere expansion at the end of 7th ed?

>>96462900
Killing orks and daemons with a sickass sword and red robot mostly.

>>96462898
Isn't that the T'AU Commander's suit?

>>96462900
I think he was involved in the "ark of omen" thing, but all I took from that was vashtorr and the lion were now a thing, the rest flew out the other ear.

>>96462910
Hell yeah!

>>96462681
carnac this doesn’t look good

Am I crazy or is the IF box pretty solid value? 535 points of pure infantry...

>>96462900
Farsight is quite literally keeping Tau from being really despised by a lot of people. He's legitimately cool / strong.

Tau gets a bad wrap cause of the whole anime weeb shit but like at least they look like weak frog people because if they were beautiful fucking elves we'd probably have more of an issue.

Curze is coming.
Not Chaos.
Not Imperial.
That's all I can say.

Got any cool ideas for next month's collage? I hope duel/diorama or fliers win.

>>96462820
>made me check
Cheeky

>>96462946
Don't make me tap the sign: No pics, fake and gay.

Resurrected by the Emporer, but not forgiven by Curze.

>>96462914
okay value but boring as shit

Where did the rumor come from that every faction is getting another combat patrol? Was this an official announcement I missed

>>96462914
if I didnt already have too much plastic I'd probably pick it up, I like the kits in it

20x warriors and an overlord? or the deciever c'tan?

I already have 20 warriors with an overlord
....and 2 monoliths

Should I buy into this? I want to get better at the tabletop sport that is 40k, and a friend recommended Art of War to me, but that's a really steep price...

>>96463043

have a look at what actual mental illness looks like, anons

>What wargear/unit would you add to your faction?
Destiny

>>96459972 (OP)
Would Avatars of other Eldar gods besides Khaine work? Just make some excuse on how some plot device caused Slaanesh to vomit a few fragments. Avatar of Khaine's rep as a jobber might be unfixable so what about others?

>>96463069
well you pretend to be the converted ogre guy, the tson guy and the tau guy, just in that picture alone

>>96463060
It’s a scam a “grift” as the kids would say.
And “t sports” is a meme. Don’t fall for it.

>>96463130
NTA but I think T-sports perfectly describes how a lot of people treat 40k these days

>>96463106
please don't post here when you're unmedicated, thanks

>>96463140
Am I missing something here? Can I get an elaboration on this “t sports” thing then?

You have the same lighting, camera, mini quality, same texture and color backdrop and resolution as the tau pictures same material only black, thousand sons pictures and converted ogre pictures. I would say you’re one person pretending to be multiple.

>>96463145
well as far as I know it's just a play on e-sports

and in terms of player behaviour, in videogames you'll have people treating casual games (e.g quickplay) as a sort of e-sport and sweat their asses off using broken guns and characters instead of going to comp because they only get enjoyment from winning

so in a tabletop context it'd be the player treating it as if its a tournament even though its a pickup game at the LGS, making a sweaty list using broken armies and units, and wont go to a tournament itself
