And of course I fucked up the little arrows in the quotes. Anyway, here's a repost from last night:

This guy is coming along nicely. Still have a lot of work to do. Lots of little touch ups, definitely need to smooth out his skin wash a bit, highlights, etc.

Not super happy with the color of the loincloth but I'm sticking with it, this was kind of a "for fun" model I'm using for a Silver Tower game.

tl;dr I have 2 questions:

1. Can I do anything at this stage to smooth out those gaps that I obviously missed in his head? You can see seams around it where I glued the plasticard together. Thought I got it all, but primer makes fools of us all in that regard.

2. How can I make the bones on his spine stand out a little more? They were pure white before I washed them and it was probably a mistake washing them the same color with the same ratio as the skin which was also pretty pale to begin with. Anything I can do at this point about that?

To be honest this is my first painted mini in about 3 years and I've painted about a total of 5 before this. I'm aware of most of my mistakes but I'd love to hear what you guys think.

You might smooth the transition between the white and red a bit but they look good to me.

>>51716887

What's wrong with the lenses? Was there some kind of glowing lenses vs. glass lenses skubfest last thread?

>>51716603
Don't start at full white. Watch Duncan paint bones. You highlight up to white.

Posting my pair of night lords.

The one on the right could have been better, but I fully assembled it first, which was a mistake. It also has some lightning that needs to be touched up, but my apartment is super dry at the moment.

After spraying my Blood Bowl orcs and humans I realized that I am terrible at it. Does anyone have a guide to how to get better coverage from spray cans?

Maybe it would be easier if you spray painted the bits first, then scratched paint of the joints and then glued the assemblage together?

So I have been working on this bit of the shrine of the Aquila, but I realized I've been stupid going about this. I want it to blend in towards the bottom to match the mat below it, however I'm not really sure how to go about it. I put a bunch of yellows and browns on the wall thinking that's what the building might look like if it had been exposed to dirt clumps hitting the walls + erosion. Later I looked up actual weathered buildings and they all seem to have a fairly even ware which is nothing like what I've done. I was going to put agrellan earth at the very bottom near the ground but I don't think that will look very good. Any suggestions to make this match a bit better?

Apologies in advance if I phonepost this picture sideways or if it's a thumbnail, I tried to resize on my phone.

Thin the paint with drying retarder.

>>51717708
I would wash almost the whole wall in earth shade, but make it lighter as you go higher. I would do lots of light coats drawing it downwards. It doesn't look bad now, but that would make it more uniform.

For the gaps, you can go all in and try liquid greenstuff, but it should have been done prior to painting. I would try to use thick paint to fill the gap, but it may not look pretty. Good luck!

>>51718098

Thanks anon. I did use LGS prior to painting and I could have sworn that it was smooth. I think I'll just leave it be for now and do better next time.

Modeling question, does anyone know if the Farseer Skyrunner model will fit on a Reaver jet bike? If not, will a wind rider body fit?

>>51717708
Buy an airbrush.

>>51717700
That would work for priming, but spraying sealer would still be a problem

>>51718234
LGS shrinks a bit when it dries. Probably what happened.

>>51718021
So is that a single shade of yellow with white highlights? and did you paint brown or grey first like most people say to? I really wanna paint yellow because it confounded me starting out.

How does high humidity affect airbrushing? (if it does at all) It never drops below 80% here.

>>51716887
don't worry about it, faggots were whinging about my lenses one time after i literally said "the lenses need a lot of work" i think it's a meme or some shit.

>>51719701
it can cause paint particles to dry in mid air, giving that chalky texture you may have seen before when using GW primer.

you can counter it though by putting a small amount of paint thinner in it, which will take the paint a lot longer to dry on the model, but it wont be chalky dogshit

>>51719751
Why would high humidity make the paint dry faster?

I don't know about that one, I used the main plasma cannon from a leman russ and it fits with a little trimming into the housing from a baal predator I got cheap on ebay.

>>51720576

Yeah I did some research and that was my best bet but none are on sale.

>>51720535
I think it would look better if the blue went from light to dark as it went down the gun but if you like it, stick with it.

>>51720650
hello old friend

Holy shit why are the connections for the Tau Crisis Suit's jets so long and thin? Should have been squat and shallower. One of them already broke off and it's murder to place them properly because that one tiny fragile nub of plastic is the only guide to its proper position.

Would start gluing everything together but the fucking primer I use on my bases takes so freaking long to dry

Thanks, doc

>>51721024
there's a proper position for those things?

>>51720535
I like it, you're the guy with the purple/blue eldar right? It helps fit your theme and gives a nice dark to light contrast as your eye wanders from gun, to chest and finally the green canopy.

I presume the dark brown areas will go to the same brass as the spine and stuff? If so you can probably turn the blue up a little more on the edges.

>>51719646
Just try and continue the lines from the neck up to the skull, the greenstuff should blend with the neck but probably not the skull.

I think you should reconsider the position of the head before you go further though. Look at some pictures of hyenas perhaps, they have the most similar body structure in real life, their necks attach to the back of their skull rather than the bottom.

>>51720432
you mean did I not notice it until I pointed it out to myself? Or "did I not notice it was WIP"? Because I don't know what the fuck anon has done to the thing, the only context is that one image.

>>51720535
I don't dig it. I would have rathered a red or something like that. Like a dark mahogany with highlights of a sharp, vivid red along the lines of Blood Red. But if you are onboard with it, go for it, dude.

Especially if you want a dark, almost orange tone like I did.

The other guy is right about Dorn Yellow being a great highlight colour though.
And Lamenter's Glaze is great for brightening up the colour and making highlights less extreme.

>>51722716
What exactly are you doing here anon? you're covering the robes with liquid greenstuff AFTER you've already primed the mini?

>>51722716
Looks like you can just sand it down?

>>51722735
No, the green im using is similar.
I did cover the gap using liquid stuff and it did seem smooth and even when i primed black. I guess i'll have to sand it down, apply proper green stuff and repaint, so doble work.

>>51722716
Always use normal greenstuff.
With liquid greenstuff if you want to fill gaps you have to do at least 2, if not 3 passes because it shinks when it dries.

So I've decided to theme my 30k Mechanicus army around the Genetors, or Magos Biologis. Lots of Skaven parts, some Deldar, some other Fantasy stuff mixed in for mad science, obviously along with a bunch of cybernetics and stuff.

So what bitz should I use to make my Genetor Magi? Was thinking Wrack parts and syringes, and maybe an Arachnarok Spider as the abeyant for my Scoria proxy? Remove the upper-back section of the abdomen, turn the abdomen into a command platform with a couple control consoles and a socket for his upper body and such. Not sure what I'd do for the Vodian Sceptre other than strap some evil medical tools to his mandibles and general cybernetics everywhere, though.

What for the lesser Magi and the Servitors and Enginseers, though? They're all going to have the usual Admech robes and such, obviously, but there aren't too many bitz I've seen that work as Admech surgical tools and things.

Happy valentine's, WIP. Would like to have been done with these models already, but nothing you can do about catching a bug.

Bit more work done on the hasslefree troopers and inquisitor. Just the black/guns and a head to do, but the latter's going to have to wait until an order gets in so I can compare hat with helmet. Also converted up a lascutter/volley gun with a spare trooper, since the standard volley gun looks terrible and cutting plastic up is the best medicine.

>>51727371
The void?
A slick blue-black with gloss varnish and Night Lord-esque lightning stylings to look like the energy is pulsing through their surroundings?

Oh, you meant World Eaters.
Nothing particularly special, just make sure to tie in blood splashes onto the ground as well, possibly with corpses around them.
Or you could make them within Khorne's realm, in a conventional vision of hell with fire everywhere, or wading through blood - water effects with BFTBG painted over it.

So what'd be a recommended solvent to glue figures together?

40k means red marines?
Then you need a good contrast color.
Black or Whites work well. Red is a pretty overwhelming hue so you want to keep the color lowkey unless you are going for old timey 80s style super colorful.
In that case just use green cause that is a complementary contrast. So the guy suggesting a field of flowers had a point. Could look pretty cool actually. Think about how all those blood bowl bases look at the moment. Mud and blood on green grass. Just add some bulletcasings to the mix and I could see how the World Eaters just starter a slaughter on the helpless population of an Agriworld.
Golden fields of Corn could also work. Corn...heh

Anyway, black rock and white snow look cool. Another spin on the lush green could be jungle bases, which also looks pretty awesome usually. Maybe black and white marble/granite or a ruined temple.

Basically anything that's a good color contrast to your paintscheme and sets the theme for your army.

I'd recommend you just use plastic glue, cause there is already a solvent int here and the bottle comes with a nozzle that let's you put it where you want it.

If you absolutely want to, you could try using acetone for the chemical weld, but it's basically the same result with a lot more fuzz.

>>51727221

it's kinda hard to make out, the pic seems a bit dark, but overall it looks pretty good to me.
The only thing that stands out to me is the ankle in the front view. Seems a bit weak.
Other than that it's a good conversion. Nice pose and you can tell what it is supposed to be.

I'm thankful you got the reference :)

>>51727153
It looks awesome. Why are you so sad?

>>51728304

I think the legs look messed up. See it started with the scourge legs which had the segmented plating up top. Well I didn't like that so I tried to smooth them out with mixed results. When that didn't work I decided I would just sculpt smooth armor plates over that, which I did. Then I realized that if there were only plates on the top of the thighs it looked wonky, so I added more greenstuff all the way around. Then it occured to me that the calves looked weird now, so I added green there, and It seems to me that I've made a hash of the legs. But maybe I'm just over reacting.

>>51727950
Thanks man. Would you say an airbrush is absolutely required for hobby painting?

Reposting the question.

Where do those of you on the European side of the Atlantic source the beads you use to put into power armour?

And what diameter do you find works?
1mm is probably the simplest, yes?

>>51728476
no. absolutely not.
In fact most people doing this don't have one.

It's useful, but mostly only worth it for people who need to paint fast for commissions or are kneedeep in miniatures they want to finish quickly.

>>51728537
I think the ork heads look stupid, other than that it's fine.

>>51728529
I bought some nailart microbeads a while ago on ebay. the postage was more expensive than the beads and it's gonna last me a long long time.
Size varies a bit, but it's not a bit deal.

1mm should be fine for studs in space marine armor, for normal rivets you could go smaller even.

>>51728476
Nice to have but no, not even close.

>>51728537
No cause for hate, it's good.

We're into niggling territory here (since it's high-quality), but I don't think the battle damage on the breastplate works, it looks like sloppy painting (in a way nothing else does) rather than the special effect that was intended.

Also the base is a little sparse and/or flat. Some different colours from shades or a drybrush might make it look more interesting and "pop".

>>51728583

Ive stripped my 20 metal daemonettes 3 times by now because im unhappy with the skin result.

tried Duncan Video.
tried rakarth -> druchii-> pallidwych
Tried mixing 1/4 pink with 3/4 Pallid wych -> then purple shade

I just cant get them to look Pale yet demonic without looking dirty and I need to have them finished for a game on Friday

Anons help

>>51728476

They are not, but they can be really really useful when saving time painting difficult base coats (like yellow). Or when you want easy streak free vehicles. They are a tool like anything else and they can make you like a bit easier.

thnx m8. ill give it a try

>>51728736
thinning the druchii almost to glaze consistency is an option.

>>51728736
>I just cant get them to look Pale yet demonic without looking dirty and I need to have them finished for a game on Friday
You have to choose between perfect and fast, anon.
Truth be told, this is one of those areas where experimentation is the only solution.
I also think it might be one where airbrushing might be a deciding factor for that "ethereal" look.

Or have you considered just adding layers of purple shade purple rain over white until you're happy with it, the most basic route?

>>51728758
If you're making more, consider adding more than just one non-model item on the base, even if it's just a loose stone.
It looks like your base is a city ruin, so you can get away with lots of cool stuff.

>>51728736
Try Rakarth -> gloss varnish -> a layer or two of watered down Druchii or 1/3 water, 1/3 druchii, 1/3 carroburg crimson if you want a pink/purple tone -> Pallidwych -> matte varnish

>>51728858

>>51728904

you can put metal minis in like ANYTHING to strip them. You can use fucking degreaser or break cleaner. Stripping metal minis is a nonissue.

>>51718941
Don't want to sound rude, but the yellow makes it looks like it's made out of plastic.

...Which, it is. But I don't think the Adeptus Mechanicus would want a contemptor dreadnought plated with children's plastic.

I advice adding some damage and dirt if you want it to look a little more realistic.

Also, what >>51721290 said. Skulls generally connect by the back of the skull, not the jaw. Will make it look less like a pug-xenomorph.

>>51729094
GW drill tool + a needle/point of a hobby knife.

Use the needle to put a small dent in the middle of the barrel. Using the smallest drill of GW (1mm usually), make it so that only about half a cm of drill is poking out the tool, then place the drill on the small hole (it should fall in place and keep it from fucking up your barrel if you misdirect it). You can either drill down all the way or just a little bit. If you go all the way, it will have a cool, 3d effect, but you risk ruining the barrel if you're not centered properly. If you drill a little bit, use shades to make it look like it's a deeper hole.

>>51729074
Gib me ur skill plox.

But seriously, that's awesome. Well done.

>>51729094
A drill.

There's a type you can get that look a bit like a metal biro that involve tightening their hold on the drill bits and having a rotating mechanism at the top that lets you rotate the drill point with the heel of your hand.

I personally have one from the Army Painter, but I would not recommend it at all.

For small jobs that you don't need to drill deeply, you can get away with just buying the drill bit independently from your local hardware store and rotating it with your hand slowly. It's a bit more awkward though, but it'll do for small jobs.

I don't normally work with metal models, I hate prepping them for painting, dealing with mold lines and the like is just way more effort compared to plastic.

>>51728537
I like it.

I agree that the base is a bit 'flat', though it's a bit hard to alter now.
I'd advise making the Ork head look more dead and less clean. Also, paint the rim of your base a solid color. Will make it look less like they're standing on some silly plateau.

it's called a pin vise, and you apply pressure with the heel of your palm, the turning force comes from your fingers. no wonder you hate them if you were trying to use one by turning your entire palm.

Anyway, on to magnetized legionaries, because it makes them easier to paint and I don't ever have to worry about wysiwyg again.

Look up Nurgle tutorials. Simple as that. Put some purple-transitions here and there to resemble bruising. Make the skin more pale to simulate blood loss. (Which is a bit silly since Ork blood is red, but whatevs.)

Also, if you're making the Ork heads dirty, remember to also make the boots/pants of the guardsmen a bit dirty. And if you want /them/ to have been the ones to cut those heads off, put some (cleaned off) blood on their hands.

Also, contemplate adding a tattoo or some warpaint on the Orks if they still don't pop out enough.

That's about all the detailing tips I have on that, hope you can use them.

What the fuck, way to misrepresent everything I said. (Re)read it and you'll see I said nothing you said I said. Read it properly before you shoot your mouth off.

I only said I would not recommend the Army painter pin vice/hand drill specifically, because the drills that come with it are weird sizes, and don't get tightened enough to stay in the slots they can fit into.
But it works fine with the drill bits I bought from the hardware shop. If anon wants to get cracking on drilling bolters he can go out and get him some 1mm drill bits and experiment.

>>51729602
It's not very much.

>>51729582

Wrong.
It's the right amount of magnets, and there's no downside than if he for some reason only magnetised one or two of the weapon options using the same pieces, rather than taking the full options available to him.

>>51729643
By jamming the holes full of greenstuff and drilling through that. Same as the jetpacks. If you look you'll notice nether has that indent in them anymore. I might not have let it cure long enough because the holes weren't very ridged and it could have gotten really bad really fast. But it ended fine.

I didn't even bother trying to get around those holes. Especially since I put in two magnets instead of one so the wargear doesn't spin around like a top. It's not like you ever see them anyway.

>>51730244
No, it's not a typo. You're crying because one significantly cheaper thing is the same price as another significantly cheaper thing except it comes with two additional marines. Buy the one with the marines and hey presto! You have more marines for the same cost.

In either case, try adding some detailing on the plates to make it look less flat. Chaos vehicle upgrade set should do fine.

If it's meant to be a chimera I'd say yeah like the other anon suggested, move the flamer to a pintle setup to the side of the cab and the multi-laser or whatever would have been on real the pintle on the other side, kinda mad maxed up. I'd say cut down the divider between the cab and the back too, maybe even a door between the two or a cut out to suggest the driver could bail out through the back since the sides are kinda stationary looking.

>>51730570
different anon but hnnnng those look cool

>>51730584
Yeah etched brass looks fantastic but I imagine it's a pain to get right.

>>51730291
I'd been thinking about that myself.

It's not held on strongly, I'll see what I can do, might leave it off entirely.

What model range are those on the fight from? They look so nice all painted up

Thanks very much, and as luck would have it I do! Cork is the meat of the base, along with slate chippings, layered with dried dirt from a plant pot (dried to avoid rotting/nasties) as well as twigs and roots. The moss of the rocks is blister-pack sponge superglued on and then torn-off.

Little bit of GW texture paint to fill in some gaps, then at the very end a few layers of weathering pigments to blend it all together.

Painting wise it was primed black, then grey, then painted mostly with washes.

it all looks great, I love it, those grass tufts seem really vibrant, where are they from?

Alright, finished my Skitarii squad.
Got 16 days left to finish the rest of my 850 army.
They're not flawless, but should definitely be TT standard, would maybe argued even a tad bit above TT standard.

Send help.

>>51728904

Thanks for the feedback anons. It definitely needs a grille at the front, I'll look into sourcing that. I'll have a go at the m3 style cupola with access from the cab, I'll post more when I get there.

>>51730847
They're the Army Painter XP Woodland tufts, had to tone them down a bit actually. I think they do a brighter one too called Jungle but that seems almost aquarium plant neon from the photos.

>pregnancy scare
how do you get a pregnancy scare? either you're wanting a baby and thus it shouldn't be a scare, or you're not being careful enough so it should be reasonably expected. come on nigga.

i know jizzing inside feels gr8, but no amount of pills and spermicide will eliminate the possibility.

Thanks!
Really shot myself in the leg with choosing such a complicated one. Shading the armor 4 times after layering up to Runefang Steel, combined with the overall fucky-ness of white paint is making it a real challenge to finish pic related in time.

The pile of sprues is another TDP and 3 Kataphrons (of which I still need to buy, assemble and paint another 3 as well).

>>51730320
Can anyone help me please? I really need to know.

>>51729530
thnx m8y. holy shit, those look sexy af. i guess i need a good basing tutorial... my old philosophy was that the base shouldn't even really be there-- like its only so the model could stand, so ideally in the future we would have models that stand automatically. but i've changed my mind on this. basing is FUN

>>51731229
>fuck, my gf getting pregnant sure would ruin everything
>but let me continue risking it anyway because FUN LOL

>>51731229
its all fun and games until your gf gets pregnant and your life is ruined. but thats alright, have your bit of fun sex, it'll be worth it when you fuck up!

You certainly won't a wargamer be when you roll snake eyes during that fuck.

>>51730679
hasslefree

Would recommend. Wish they'd push out some specialists in white metal.

>>51730320
They use round bases, not jetbike bases. If you're doing it as a mount, I believe it's 40mm or 50mm.

>>51731654
I see, so basically the next biggest round flying bases after Tau Drones?

>>51731750
Yep. Tau drone bases are 32 as far as I know.

>>51731865
Thank you. It's gonna be difficult as I don't have any lying around.

Guessing it's frowned upon to use different bases? I MUST get the appropriately sized ones?

>>51731904
Official GW statement is that you can use any size of base as long as you and your opponent are both okay with it. It's in the core rulebook FAQ.

If you have a Terminator base and a short flyer stem (Jetpack-style), drill a hole in the center of the base and stick the flyer stem in it. It'll work well enough. I believe the Exalted Sorcerer does exactly that.

>>51731935
Ok, that's very good to know. I only play amongst friends and have a good friendly attitude regardless so I don't see any problems arising from using a slightly different base. I never model for advantage on principle.

Can get to work now, thank you!

oh duncan.

Left. GIve her lots of black equiptment with some extreme edge highlights like latex.

Which version of Word Bearers should I do?
I only have an allied squad of 5 marines, a rhino and a sorcerer on palanquin so I feel like I can go any direction with them. Allied with Renegades and Daemons

>>51731013
Get her a pregnancy test and shut up.

Too late for that? Get an abortion.

>>51732169
No, the too late for that is to stop spending money on fucking mini paint and raise your god damned child like an adult.

I too am interested in the 'different' word bears, ive seen the super gaudy ones but thats it

>>51732288
Here's all the options I see:
>Normal chaos marines with normal rhinos
Look like shit. Best suited for Black Legion
>Plain pre heresy MKIV armour with plain deimos rhino, all with decals
Simple yet serious. No goofy zany look like the standard marines
>MKIV Word Bearers upgrade kit on MKIV marines with deimos
The upgrades look good with the preheresy stuff but in my opinion I've never been a fan of raised iconography, especially on shoulderpads. It's too "Grey Knights-esque" for me with the raised books etc on the armour which are functionally pointless.
>with current rhino, upgraded via Word Bearers rhino kit
Further expands on the protruding iconography instead of subtle water transfers but possibly makes the most sense. Old marks of space marine armour aren't difficult to find on the battlefield, especially when it comes to chaos. Relic rhinos however are INSANELY hard to come by, moreso than dreadnoughts of the time period if I'm not mistaken. It'd make more sense for older marines to use current bolters and current rhinos, would it not? It's not like they were time warped and still use all of their old gear.

>>51732147
>>51732236
you're both retards
trying to deal with or "fix" somebody who's fucked in the head is an awful, awful idea because it almost always leads to a disgusting level of codependence, which is a massive problem if/when the relationship falls apart.
we're also overpopulated and dont need more kids, and if you cant provide for those children, which a lot of people cant, then why the fuck are you bringing them into the world.

>>51732474
Of course it's a huge risk and challenge to live with someone that might have mental issues rooted as deeply as not being able to have children, but that doesn't mean that those people aren't also looking for love and that you should reject them, even if everything else works between you two, just because it might lead to over-dependence and issues if you break up.
Sending a girl that you love away just because you don't want to "deal with it" is the same as a situation like having a child, not wanting to care for it and giving it up for adoption to be someone else's problem.

>>51731935
>as long as you and your opponent are both okay with it
So basically only hueg bases if you're against a tourneyfag

There isnt a MKIII version? I have a few of the suits but wasnt sure on which traitor force i liked. Either Microsoft Word: Bears or Iron Hands.

I just want MKIII traitors. Too bad theres no Slaaneshi guys that use it a lot. Or from what ive seen, not many schemes in blue either

>>51732691
It looks super dumb senpai. No lasgun shroud no deal.

>>51732436
>Normal chaos marines... Look like shit.
Too true. New basic CSM models WHEN?

>>51732738
There are only embossed MK2 and MK3 WB shoulderpads but fluff wise a majority of them used MK3 armour and didn't utilize MK4 until closer to the heresy, traitor marines primarily being outfitted with them.

They didn't even provide standard marines with the starter. I remember when the current released and they were even shit at the time. Maybe sometime soon with the upcoming edition.

>>51716748
Love that model, love the colours, but I think it could use some sharper highlights.
