Still looks drat ugly though, but maybe that's what chaos marine players want.

 Just could not get the barrel effect how I wanted (couldn't get a good orange mainly) but it looks ok I guess.

The Demilich posted:Hell yeah, so I can def get a few of those bits. Turret dome at the widest point is 48mm Guessing that with the guns on it you’d be looking at around 90mm long (the length of the guns), 60mm wide and about 25mm tall for the Autocannons on the plastic Sicaran. I think the Omega's turret you linked before is taller but not as long.

Finished my first mini squad of Chosen, really awesome kit. Can't wait to use all the extra bits to bash some legionaires into more chosen.

Highlighting every single finger and the upward facing parts of the palm is an intimidating amount of work.

All orange paints are transparent AF. To get a good orange, you've gotta basecoat with either a flesh color like Bugman's Glow or a pastel orange like Vallejo Model Color German Orange, then go over it with your bright orange like Troll Slayer or my go-to, Golden Hi Flow Pyrolle Orange.

I'll check those out, thanks. I realized I didn't actually have an orange so I was trying to make one and couldn't get one bright enough.

If you want to go for that really saturated orange look of glowing hot metal like I did here, there are a few specific colors I highly recommend.  Titanium White Golden High Flow Acrylic Fluor Yellow & Orange Daler Rowny Fluor Red AK Tenebrous Grey The tenebrous grey has the color of almost cast iron, which, when contrasted against the fluor colors, looks like comparatively cool metal, with a bit of heat still seeping through. Based on your color selection here, the orange seems a bit muted, which won't drive home the "glowing" effect. Also, you want the colors to be built up over a background of white to really make them pop. Typically this takes an application of white, then a bright color (fluor red), then an application of white in brighter areas, then an even brighter color (fluor orange), then more white in the very tiniest recesses, and a final application of your brightest color (fluor yellow). You can see an example here: https://www.instagram.com/p/C0hVlLzNV7T/?hl=en From there you can then start glazing the darkest parts with tenebrous grey. The whole process takes less time than it seems, I use a hair dryer to speed up the process. He also has another video mini tutorial for something very similar here: https://www.instagram.com/p/Cxa3Y8VNVKP/?hl=en Verisimilidude fucked around with this message at 22:28 on Jan 17, 2024 |

 Total number of models finished has hit an all time high: Four. Next up is either my half squad of Infiltrators, or half a squad of Incursors, or my Outrider unit. I'm torn, I don't really want to do a bunch of little guys but multiple larger ones is also intimidating after a unit of Aggressors and a Dreadnought.

Hopefully the real digital points for deathwing knights are actually sane, 300 points is practically imperial knight/primarch territory

Nazzadan posted:Starting a World Eater army on the side and painted up a test model tonight, looking for some feedback on it. Is there anything that jumps out at you as needs improvement or changing before I start going full steam ahead on the rest of the army with this scheme? At a glance I think I need to push the red highlights higher at the extreme tips like on the wrists. I think this looks good and I dig the colors, I would try to do something to make the world eater shoulder logo pop a bit more, making the inner section contrast with the outer section more. Pushing your brightest red highlights a bit more and adding contrast that way is usually a good move, go for it!

They're usually priced too highly to be seriously worth it, but sometimes they hit that right balance of cost to utility.

Don't Deathwing Knights get like 20 attacks at 2+ S6 -2ap D3? Also a bunch of other stuff? 20 wounds for the unit as well with -1 damage? I don't know enough about the game in its current form to understand if this is good, but I did find it funny that the article goes "here are the advantages" of using Deathwing and doesn't say any reason why you might choose something else.

A 5 man squad of Custodes is 250-275 points, and you're pretty much obligated to take at least a 140 point character with them. That death wing list doesn't look that different in terms of points values.

The leader gets an extra attack, 2 AP, dev wounds, and sustained 1, but is only D2. But there doesn't seem to be any major rules change to them (I think they also get Teleport Homer now?) to justify the 25% points increase that 290 represents.

Ah ok they were cheaper previously? 25% is a fair bit I can see why it's getting mocked if the unit wasn't dominant to begin with.

Huh, they're saying the DA Update has 20 datasheets, they currently have 18, with Deathwing Command Squads going and Companions coming in, and I assume the Ravenwing Talonmaster going, where are they getting more new units from? Or is that 20 physical cards in the datasheet pack which will include ones for the Detachment rules, so it's more like 17 datasheets plus those?
