AdMech had like a crazy 62% winrate at the world championship and won the tournament as well beating the best Eldar player in the world. Was adding Oath of Moment to Cawl really all it took to catapult then from one of the worst armies in the game to one of the best?

How many worlds do Orks own in the Galaxy that they can support that kind of population density? Because the Imperium has a million worlds and still has insanely packed and crowded cities.

Well I've been thinking about potential battle cries for my personal chapter and I think I'll have it be something that reflects their nature and emphasis on the dominance of humanity. I've had ideas like "Mankind eternally!" Or stuff like that. Maybe put it in Lati-*cough* high gothic

Orks can sort of produce everything they need passively. They eat stuff produced by their own spores such as mushrooms and squigs. They can have infinite dudes and it would be fine because they don't work on logic. And I don't mean in a"lmao I believe my cardboard box is a tank so it's a tank" way but that the writers don't give a shit about their logistics unfortunately.

I wanted to ask your opinion on my black armor highlights. I feel like they're too bright and come off a little tron-like. Would blending their outsides more towards black improve that? Or should I just hit the whole thing with a black contrast wash?

Yeah, the issue is that they are too uniform. Save the brightest highlight color just for the corners and any edges that are facing up and would receive more light. I do my highlights in reverse, that wip you got there is a great place to try and apply it. Tone down the highlights on the downward facing edges and it should look a lot more natural.

That's where I'm at as well. However, I don't want to take forever on these and in addition to that, I've realized if I do them all at the same time, I can start on the less important models and end on the more important ones and be warmed up on that particular technique, whereas if I go one at a time I'll get the same amount of total practice but split up

Honestly I find it a lot easier than the traditional wisdom of chunky highlight into fine highlight. It's a lot easier to tone down and refine a messy highlight than trying to draw an impossibly thin and smooth line, especially if the edges are not particularly sharp and you can't trust the edge of the brush to do the work for you. Give it a try and see if you like it.

Ork spores grow the squigs and fungi they eat and orks are actually also more spread across the entire galaxy on every planet rather than concentrated on worlds they almost fully own like the imperium is. A shitload of them also just rove space in warships, space hulks and asteroids.

The honest answer is to just do it more. A more specific answer is to choose to focus on one particular thing at a time. I wanted to learn NMM, so I did it more. Is it perfect? No, but it looks like metal, which is better than when I tried it before, and it just looked like shit. Pick something simple and small. Thinning paint so you can't see brushstrokes, maybe layering or glazing a gradient better. It doesn't really matter what you choose as long as you pick something.

So the Imperium failing to destroy the Tau would be like if the combined forces of the Europe, China, the Middle East, and north Africa sent an invasion force to take the Falkland Islands in the middle of World War 3 with several other superpowers...and then the Falkland Islands drove them off. By itself.

Even accounting for the military force admittedly being a token one that's...impressive.

Also, how worth it is it to buy new paints just for edge highlighting? On my first model I just mixed corax white witj the base color snd that seemed to work all right(though with obvious limitations)

Here is the thing. As per the lore, (Deathwatch codex 7th, for example), the Imperium cannot focus its forces on a single target for a prolonged length of time.

So saying IF the Imperium does that or not is irrelevant. The Imperium can destroy any Xenos races if both existed in a vacuum, but that's not the circumstances of the galaxy, so I wish people would stop bringing up that moot point.

The fact that remains for all to see is that the T'au defeated an impressive number of the Imperial forces that the Imperium spared to throw at them.

>What kind of extra paints should I buy
Everyone should have a gold, a silver, a cool white, a bone, a black, a brown wash, and a black wash. Everything else is situational, and depends what you want to do. It's nice to have at least one highlight colour for every material on your model.
>Should I also get a red layer paint to do this >>96951221 # with?
So that tutorial you would need a red basecoat, and two highlight tones for your red.
>how worth it is it to buy new paints just for edge highlighting
So for the most part, the edge highlight paints will behave for you the same as the base paints will as a beginner. I do think it is good for beginners to have as few paints they are mixing as possible, because things being premixed means they are consistent and easier for you to notice the things you are doing if your paint is the same every time you use it. Also red doesn't respond well to whites being mixed in for highlights, it goes really pink and stops reading as red. Usually you highlight reds with brighter+more saturated reds than your basetone, and work in more orange
>Would it be worth it to buy any other metallic to highlight the leadbelcher parts?
stormhost silver is my fave for a super small highlight on gold, but beginners are better off going with a brighter gold so any small mistakes they make are less visible

That might be true from a narrative POV, but from a pure numbers game Israel is way bigger to rest of the middle east than the Tau is to the rest of the galaxy. The Falkland Islands was used because if we reduced the population of the galaxy to the current population of Earth but kept the proportions, the Tau would have a population of about 5,000 or so, which is (slightly more than) what the Falkland Islands has. This out of a global total population of about 8 billion.

In fact, if we just looked at the Imperium and the Tau alone for a comparison (not including the rest of the galaxy), the Tau would have the population and size of Albania (about 2 million)...and the Imperium would be the size and population of the rest of the world combined.

The secret to highlighting metallics is using more metallics. If you want to brighten the highpoints of your leadbelcher, look to using something like Runefang Steel after applying the wash. Bonus points if you use something like Iron Warrior on the lower parts before the wash to make more of a gradient but that part's optional.

Yeah, it's the same thing with every other faction.

The Drukhari could conquer the galaxy if they cared to and if they weren't such backstabbing skavenous weasels...but they are and they're not going to change anytime soon. The Necrons could conquer the galaxy if they all woke up...but they won't. The Orks could conquer the galaxy if they united under one leader...but they won't. The Tyranids could conquer the galaxy if the rest of the hive fleets arrived...but they won't.

There are certain core functions of each faction that will continue to exist forever. The Imperium will always be unable to get its shit together and finish off its enemies. The Tau will always be small compared to the Imperium. The Eldar will always be slowly dying but not quite finished off yet.

The population of the Middle East is only about 450 million depending on your definition of what the Middle East entails. This means that Israel has .4% of the population of the rest of the Middle East.

For contrast, the Tau have a population about .03% that of the Imperirum's. Israel is almost 14 times bigger than the Tau, relatively speaking.

If the Tau ever get to the point where they have about 5,000 planets, THEN they'll be the new Israel.

Black works well for colours you don't want to add any warmth to. Things like Grey's, blues, greens, indigo. It also will make metallics look more "silver" and less stained.
>Right, I'm gonna continue basing mephiston red... it's true that reds turn pink but I don't hate it too much so I might just do that again. Or get a third color
You can also look towards oranges as a highlight. Evil sun's scarlet>firedragon bright is my personal favorite for a bold, saturated red
>Leadbelcher is a silver/steel color, so could I use that color to highlight it?
It's a little dark for that. You probably want leadbelcher and a silver highlight so you can also highlight your metallics
>The biggest problem is that it wasn't even an answer at all. My question was about which colors I need, not which brand to buy them from

Stormhost is a lot brighter, and runefang has a little blue to it, so it depends on what you're going for.

Nuln oil I find I use less and less over time vs. Agrax, but I think that's just because, as I've found the painting style I like, nuln oil has kind of been left behind. It looks good on synthetic parts, machine bitties and whatnot, but Agrax makes stuff look more worn and dirty, which I like. Nuln oil kind of looks "fake" imo

That's valid. I do think both the Eldar and the Tau need a massive numbers boost tho desu. The Tau should have tens of thousands of planets and the Eldar should have thousands of craftworlds. Enough that they're both still very tiny compared to the Imperium, but that it still makes sense why the Imperium would ally with them. Because as it stands right now, working with either faction even temporarily just feels like a complete waste of time with their sizes. It'd be like the US going out of its way during WW2 to court fucking Leichenstein or Luxembourg to its side.

Which is ofc important

They can always ramp things up a little tho, as long as it gets evenly distributed. Chaos got to beat cadia, so the imperium got primaris marines and bobby g back, etc. I think it would be cool for all the other factions to get a win too, maybe the orcs can win armageddon round 4, the eldar can steal some sort of ancient necron tech that lets them produce hella more craftworlds or something, etc. I think if handled carefully every main faction could make some sort of step forward, giving a sense of progression while also maintaining the balance of power

Makes sense.

From the Tau I personally would want to see them make some megaprojects. Shit that would make even the Imperium go "Oh shit what the fuck is that". Like a giant Dyson-Sphere that powers a bigass sun-gun.

Yes, there are trillions of Tau, possibly tens of trillions, and countless more auxillaries...

...but there's tens of quadrillions of Imperials. Neither Tau worlds nor Imperium worlds seem to particularly have an advantage over the other when it comes to population density, we've seen Tau ecumenopoli with trillions of people, but we've also seen hive worlds with those same numbers. So the simplest way to compare populations is just to go with the total number of planets.

There could be some kind of arc where the tau build a giant death star that somehow sneaks through the defenses to attack terra directly(maybe it uses super duper fancy shmancy stealth tech idk) and have a massive naval battle with the giant imperial fist flagship. That would be awesome. After a long and hard fought battle the weapon is destroyed but the damage to the phalanx is massive and the imperium is terrified the tau may have more of these things

Honestly that's probably the best part about the Tau

You can destroy the big fuckoff Necron World Engine with great effort, and they probably won't build another one. You can use up the one-of-a-kind archaeotech weapon, and it's lost forever. You can even destroy some ancient psi-Titan that Chaos scrounged up, and you probably won't have to face it again.

But once the Tau make something they know how to make more. Even their fucking Ghostkeel battlesuits are described as being 'mass produced' and we've seen one of those things solo a Space Marine monastery (granted it was piloted by O'kais but still).

Exactly. It's for the things that you want to add shadows to, but not make them appear any dirtier

>What kind of burgundy/purple paints might work with mephiston red?
Nta but I like reikland fleshshade for reds that you want done fast. The red on the pilot in pic related is wazdakka, washed with reikland, layer wazdakka, highlight wazdakka:wild rider red, extreme highlight wild rider on the face and sharpest corners

As a shade for your reds. Reikland is too translucent to get any use out of highlighting with it. By removing saturation in your shadows, it makes your flat areas and highlights appear bolder and brighter, which is a stylistic choice, but I think looks pretty good

his gun now kills everything, chickens get good movement and can adv fall back and shoot, so they can find angles and reroll everything, and rust stalkers are now infantry blenders. They also have the boon of almost everything having invlns and being hoardy, so alot of mid/high ap/dmg attacks fall through. Kind of sucks that the win rate is so high, probably means were getting nerfed for the rest of the edition and most of the unplayable data sheets wont be touched.
