Crossposting from the painting thread: I Finally finished my first raven guard squad! Presenting the 3rd shadow company's 2nd assault squad, led by brother sergeant Larinae. There should be enough latin names for seagulls to fill out the names for the rest of the company, too. If anyone wants a closer look on any individual model, I've posted them in the painting thread as I've finished them!

It's been slow going, but I'm real happy with the result

Got the boys together for a group shot, which turns out to be really hard, and I now understand how people end up buying these little spinning platforms.


Time to move on to the grotmas gitz- I at least aim to finish the base before I paint more space marines. Aside from a jetpack captain, I've got some exterminators and a pack of infiltrators that needs to be assembled and primed!

Hi, my name is Honsou. I'm the most written about character the Iron Warriors have. I'm so good at being an Iron Warrior I beat Perturabo in a tabletop wargame. Don't mind me, I'm the face of a Legion despite being half Imperial Fist! Would you like to see my cool necron arm that gives me no ill effects like it did primarch Ferrus?

I wish he'd moonwalk back into that giant demon pussy he made and gently caress off forever.

Daemonculabas are probably the most Heavy Metal magazine thing about 40K and it's gross and Honsou is gross for engineering it but we have Ventris to thank for ending it.

Starting on my World Eaters, they're actually really fun sculpts to paint, probably cause they have less trim than a regular Chaos Space Marine

They got the good sculptors to do the new possessed and cultist torment models. I recently made some chaos spawn from the latter and they're fantastic.

I think that's from the photography, and how they arranged the models together. If you focus on the bases, the models on the bottom row are slightly scaled up compared to the ones above, and I think the middle row is also larger than the top row. I don't know why they'd arrange it that way, because it makes Belial look tiny compared to the regular terminators at the bottom, but if you compare the models across each row to each other, they're all pretty much the same height

So I've gone all in on a Snakebites Ork army. Had to get a trukk for my Nobz but I want to give it that Beast Snagga feel. Any recommendations on what bits I could hunt down to get some pelts, bones, horns, or teeth?

Edit: even some terms to google just so I'm getting stuff at the right size.

Google "texture roller green stuff scales" or something similar for ideas on how to make a sheet of green stuff with some kind of scaled or leathery texture and drape that poo poo all over your vehicles. That should be a good start.
