Who was it again who had that AdMech goblin army? I think it was a goon at least who did. Mostly asking because a friend on Discord asked for pictures of it that i had linked before to him. Not going through a 1600 page thread for them.

So aside from the inevitable faults that I'm only seeing now that its blown up to 20x size I'm pretty sure Brother-Apothecary Chiron is a wrap!   This brings me up to captain, librarian, chaplain, ancient, Lt, and Apothecary for converted primaris characters. (though i dont use the Lt anymore since the wake the dead one is the best) Just have to start painting the phobos Lt and a remake of my powerfist captain before august for NoVA and other events.

Is there any transfer sheet that has the Troops arrow in black? All I can find is the white one. Hoping not to have to print these.

I went this route and constantlystruggle to fit the drat things on pads without forcing the power pack in to awkward positions. The shoulder pads in the Primaris box with fiddly bits on the bottom edge of the pauldron also cause the arrows to fit very badly. Transfers are their own hell, but the 3d printed ones aren't a silver bullet.

Okay, I said I'd post some of the WIP shots of my crappy Repressor assembly I've been doing with my son, so here goes: Dry-fit assembled with the doors up, more or less the look I'm going for. The gun slot on the top was shaved off a little close...not sure if I'll patch it or not. It might work for a battle-worn look. I'll decide later.  I magnetized the doors and I plan to add hinges to the side doors. Mostly I'll run these with the standard loadout, just a single heavy flamer, but wanted the option to swap them out AND give them an ability to swivel freely without falling off.  Doors down, side doors painted while back door is WIP. You can see where the magnet was added by the half moon-shape on the back door, which is a look I like overall. Side door magnets are relatively seamless.  Interior detail which no one will EVER see. It was fun to paint though. My kid and I have been painting these with some D&D models off and on when it rains. 3x repressors and miscellaneous D&D minis.  Another interior shot. Sorry for the bad focus here but I'm out of time. It was a lot of fun to paint the instrument cluster but no one is gonna see it. I might go crazy and add an LED. I'm really enjoying assembling these overall. I hope to get some of the contrast paint next month and I'll post some comparison shots of the results my five year old gets using contrast paint vs. good old regular stuff.

With regards to the LED, I bought this egg shaped little LED light for my bedside table that activates with a light tap and turns off after a couple of minutes. I opened it up and it's a tiny little board and battery, might work well for this sort of thing, it'll turn on when you place the model on the table after moving it.

I've started a Judge Anderson for a friend who wants a Dredd themed Kill Team. The gloss is a bit extreme so I'm gonna knock that back with matte and do the finer details. But I'm terrified of doing eyes. e: we've just had a gently caress awful election here, and I've drinking scotch all night so I'll probably hate this figure in morning, but

Quick question, what's the right base size for a Smallmarine Watch Captain, 32mm or 40mm? I figure I might convert one or two.

Lizard Combatant posted:The gloss is a bit extreme so I'm gonna knock that back with matte and do the finer details. But I'm terrified of doing eyes. Something I've learned for eyes...I think it works best going dark to white to eye color. Start with the deep color behind the eye white. For the dredd psycher girl I'd go with a dark brown. You can slop it in there because you want to cover the whole area and give the illusion of the eyelashes and underbrow shadow. After that, create eye shape with white or ivory. This is more forgiving than you'd think. Use a fine brush and build on oval, checking as you go. You can always return to the back coat color if you screw up. Finally, paint in the eye itself. I recall the dredd psycher had dark eyes, and I think I'd go with a super dark red or brown. If you build up the base eye as above this is pretty forgiving too. Paint a dot in there with a small brush, check, paint second dot, check. Look at the final result and adjust if necessary. This method is way easier than just painting white with the eye and looks awesome. You'll get a defined iris without much effort because the dark color behind helps it pop. Before I learned this I did so much crap trying to get it right...even putting needle drops of paint in the sockets to try and determine the actual eye placement. I'd share some of the models I painted with this method but my son and his friends played a lot with them and broke them so I threw them out. (D&D minis don't take punishment like warhams.) Here's an article that describes it really well though. I never bother with steps 5 and 6: http://www.arcanepaintworks.com/blog-1/2016/6/9/6-step-eyes

Had a quick mess about with a sponge and some metals, inks and texture paints to try and ding up an old model as the red I painted it in a few years ago is a lot lighter than the Corsairs of been painting, so now at least he fits in nicely. (yes it does say lol).  And with his new buds

Righto! Now then, I've got some Horus Heresy bits, so I think I might do one with the Thunder Hammer/Storm Shield/Jump Pack* Combo and another with a Lightning Claw instead of the hammer. *Well, teleporter backpack from the Grey Knights Sprue.

Is there a special ruleset for playing with just a handful of figures? Say 5 - 10? I have a pretty good collection of adapetus mechanicus figures and am wanting to build up a necron army, and want to just play something very casual and quick with my wife. What books would I need to get?

From your history in the painting thread I can tell you're like me in the sense that you just buy and paint whatever looks cool, so yeah Kill Team is the perfect game for people like us to get some use out of our models when we're done painting them. It's a pretty good feeling holding one kit and knowing it's an entire team to play with, too. Much less stress on the wallet.

Exactly! I am at the point now where I am building up a lot of of certain factions too. At first I was all like, "actually play Warhammer? Not here not ever!  " but my attitude is starting to change now.

Are any of the citadel mini scenery sets a good value? They've got a lot of scenery at my flgs and it's generally pretty cool stuff. I'd like to spruce up my future table with some actual scenery. Edit: To my mind, stuff like the mecboy workshop, mechanicus servohaulers, and the fragdrill make a lot of sense to purchase. You'd have trouble scratch building those.
