I kind of hope Warhammer 40k get's the Fantasy treatment and soon, the rumours for Fantasy are loving crazy right now.quote:

Kinda liking this, though I think it'd be better with actual arms with guns on them rather than Rifleman style guns bolted on the side. Possibly there'll be more options. So, once they've churned out a couple dozen Legion specific variants, I wonder what they'll do for the Furibundus?

This here is the cool ranch variant. I know they have the zesty taco in the works, and rumors are pointing to a nacho cheese.

It's from the How to get a Date thread on Dakka, it's the endless gift of giving. I finally got my Necron's to look like I wanted which was a pearlescent white, all it took was buying a 225 dollar Airbrush. So yeah if you want to paint something white, Airbrush. ( Seriously, I love this loving thing I painted 20 Chaos Marines in like 3 hours with it.)

Sup, hams? I hope y'all like pictures. These are all from an Apoc game I attended last weekend. The Steel Legion are mine. Highlights from the game include: - Transcendent C'Tan being taken out turn 1 by Sternguard. - 9 Obliterators and 5 Deamon Princes precision deep striking in my backfield and managing to not kill a single thing, not even a Chimera. - My Shadowsword taking out 4 Land Raiders, a Spartan, a Baneblade, a bunker, a void shield generator, and surviving point-blank shots from 3 combi-melta terminators and 2 obliterators, and then several subsequent turns of shooting and CC as it took a while to take them all out. - My Master of Ordnance killing a loving Warhound Titan. - The guy with the Imperial Fists next to me not losing a single marine the whole battle, and having a TL AC dreadnought tie up a Bloodthirster for three turns in CC. My team lost, but the corner defended by the Steel Legion and the Imperial Fists rejected all invaders with contemptuous ease.

Transcendent C'tan are absolutely loving nuts, a teammate deep striked one behind enemy lines and just tore poo poo up, like even Knights it was insane.

Finished my sorcerer. This was a pretty easy conversion, but I really wanted to keep following the Black Legion supplement, so I needed a dude that I could paint a blue cape on. Fortunately, this dude is pretty perfect for a sorcerer with a bit of conversion (or a Dark Apostle but I'll save my other DV Champion for that when I get to word bearers).

It's the elbow. Chop the arm off where it connects underneath the shoulderpad and rotate it about 45 degrees to the right. Cool pose though, it'll own once you're done with it!

PantsOptional posted:Opinion poll: of the various non-Imperial shooty basic troops (Shoota Boyz, Termagaunts, Fire Warriors, etc etc) which would be the cheapest/easiest to model as aiming their guns upward at a flyer? Eldar Guardians can't really do it, even with the standing up legs you can't get the torso to tilt back far enough and not look broken, and on top of that the backpack doesn't let the head tilt back in any way.

Considering the obvious Macross aesthetic of that new FW dread, I think the arms are actually supposed to be the stubby little guns on the nose while everything else is just poo poo bolted onto the shoulders, like some sort of hosed up Marauder stuck inside a flotation device.

So what you're saying is FW took the Marine in a Centurion in a Dreadknight thing and actually made one?

I started thinking about where the gently caress would the ammo be in that thing if it wanted to fight for longer than a minute and then realised the pilot has been cored so they could fit the ammo in there.

Finally got around to painting up a replacement for my old Imperial Assassin. I love how goofy this model is, with the skull helmet, weird claw, and the Go Pro taped to his shoulder.

Once upon a battlefield dreary, where I cowered, spent and bleary, Within an Imperial bunker, darkly stained with dust and gore - As I cowered, nearly shuttering, suddenly there came a sputtering As some weapon quickly stuttering - firing at my bunker door. "`Tis some bolter", I murmured, "firing at my bunker door - Only this and nothing more." Ah, distinctly I remember, it was in the bleak December, And the brightly burning bastions lit the horizon by the score. Eagerly, on freedom drunker; - vainly had I sought to hunker In this heavy Imperial bunker - with perhaps a tunnel in the floor - A safe and empty fortress with perhaps a tiny tunnel in the floor - Only this and nothing more. And the mad raving howling of each distant Space Wolf prowling Thrilled me - filled me with fantastic terrors never felt before. So that now, to the beating of my heart, I stood entreating "`Tis some Space Wolf there repeating, firing at my bunker door - Some common Grey Hunter rapid-firing at my bunker door - This it is and nothing more." Presently my soul grew stronger; hesitating then no longer "Marine," said I, "or Scout, your attention I implore; The bunker walls are thick - they are made of tempered brick And your bolters do not nick the slightest scratch or tiny score - Not a dimple, dent, depression, dip, scratch or tiny score - Away now, and fire no more." Then in the bunker slumping, presently I heard a thumping A pounding - rattling many times fiercer than before. And soon I began to screech - the bunker wall grenades did breach; The very gods I did beseech as the ceiling fell upon the floor - Through the wounds poured light which danced upon the floor - Danced amidst the sounds of war. Then at once it stopped the violence - I was left alone with silence Confused, I spied the reason why the shells did drop no more - For as I began to shutter, then with many a flit and flutter a psyber-Raven flew through the clutter to perch above the door - Perched on the two-headed eagle just above the bunker door - Perched and sat and nothing more. At this I grew more craven, for the talons of the psyber-Raven Were all over covered with bright red blood and crimson gore. "Wretch!" I cried, "Njal hath lent thee - into this fortress has he sent thee So that remotely may he here be - and this bunker then explore - Scry out my exact location and this bunker then explore -" Quoth the Raven, "Eversor" Then, methought, the air grew darker, the bunker now a little starker For the uttered word brought terror as I had never felt before. As for weapons, I knew I had none - no bolter, sword or lasgun; No arms to stop the war's son fated to break soon through the door - The blood-mad crazed assassin fated to break soon through the door- Quoth the Raven, "Eversor" "Be that word our sign of parting, machine or bird!" I shrieked, upstarting - "Get thee back into the fire-fight and here spy on me no more! For as you came unbidden - I would otherwise be here hidden - Leave my location in this midden - quit that icon above my door! Take thy shining metal eye, and take thy form from off my door!" Quoth the Raven, "Eversor" And the Raven, never flitting, still is sitting - still is sitting On the pallid two-headed eagle just above the bunker door; His metal eye has all the seeming of a psyker that is scheming, To have my guts lie steaming in a pile upon the floor; And now all hope has left me, crouched here upon the floor I await the Eversor!
