I'm thinking about getting the SC! Skitarii box, but I've read through the codex, and well, I don't really want to do red. I have an idea in mind, so I quickly painted up pic related just to see how it would look. Obviously it would need edge highlights still, but I think it looks pretty good for a test piece. What does /tg/ think?

>>52071088
I think it would look good, i think someone posted a similar skitarii scheme on an ice base in the last thread.

>>52071088

Not bad, at least no in my opinion. Have you looked at the other color schemes or considered your own, or are you dead set on the white. Having done a White army myself I can honestly say it's a pain in the ass.

It's very nice, but it's very bright. Not that there is anything wrong with that if that's what you are going for, it just looks a little artificial and toy like to me personally.

>>52071260
It looks a bit washed out in the picture, but it's actually Screaming Skull.

Going to get a squad of HH Marines to do in a batch. This is my first time doing partials. What should I leave unassembled? They're MKIV if it matters.

>>52071322
Artificial I'll take as a positive what with it being a daemon engine. Toy like isn't what I was aiming for though, was going for glassy looking

Pic related works for me. For gluing you can either scrape off the paint/ primer and use plastic cement or simply super glue.

Also, if you have bare heads among your dudes, you might want to paint them separately too.

>>52071534

That makes it look simple enough.

I'm not painting my bases, natural rocks look a shit load better than the terrible bases you linked

Goddamn dude, seeing how good these are is seriously demoralizing.

Alright you fucking nerds whom do sisters conversion. I need to know if the immolator kit sold on GW's website has a plastic turret sprue with the SOB helmet on there. If it is, I can justify the purchase of it for the head because I can get an extra rhino out of it. If it's not in there, I won't buy.

i love how gritty these are. bet they look great on the table.

Im stilling some tanks with Purple Power, Let it soak so far for 12 hours and all of the paint is off, expect for the primer.
I used the GW chaos black spray, and I heard it stains primer. Should I let soak for another 24 hours and try again? And if the primer wont come off, should I:
paint right over the primer that wont come off?
prime over the primer that wont come off and then paint?

>Can I just use Abaddon black to brush on a mini to use in place of spray on primer in a pinch?

Base paints don't have the same properties as a primer. You can try this, but if you have any discerning taste at all, you're going to be disappointed with the outcome.

>>52077248
At the risk of your paint peeling off.
Abaddon Black from a pot isn't a primer, it's normal paint.
It's not going to stick to the plastic nearly as well as a brush on primer would, and would be at risk of being damaged quite easily.

>>52074183
Bump. I got an idea for the canonness I wanna convert for my friend, but I need to confirm.

>>52074183

I believe it should. I'm still waiting on my own Immolator, but a guy at my store has one assembled but not painted that he showed me. Plastic, and the sister sitting in the turret did indeed have a helmet.

No problem. If you just want one something you can do is go into a GW store and say you want to try a build and paint class. They have these shit snap fit liberators and marines they give out to let prospective players give it a try. Get one of those and then hold up the shield to your megaboss and see what you think. I was able to barter with my local owner and get 8 of those learn to paint liberator shields for converting my crusaders so i didn't have to buy a box.

Well since I posted the image I might as well ask,
I'm making plague zombies for a Vraks Renegades army and I'm picturing ghouls with these heads with greenstuff tubing leading to a respiratory rig would look really cool. A couple could be unmasked or have half their mask ripped off. Since there's only 30 or so that I need I'd sculpt some tattered clothing belted down by what I'm wondering about making. Should the back respirators be of human origin, simply failed to purify nurgle's influence or some twisted workings of chaos? Like a glowing generator embedded into the creatures gut that the mask's tube leads to providing fumes? If I went that route I'd definitely make them more on the tattered robed side than civilian/worker clothing. The bones and extra goofy stuff that's affixed to the models will be cut down and smoothed.

Ok friendos, this is after two layers of... uh... layering.

I based them in averland sunset, then put a layer of 50/50 averland/yriel and finally 25/75.

I put it on a bit heavier on the upward facing parts like the helmet, back of the haunched leg, and the power packs.

Can you tell? I feel like it's making no difference.

I should probably wash them next, agrax earthshade or reikland fleshshade.

Take and layer up cork until it gets to the hight you want, with each succesive layer of cork being a bit smaller, and then smooth it out with plaster or milliput until its a rounded rock.

Angle so you paint along the edge with the side of the brush at like 45 degrees where you can.

It's really not that bad, the right idea. Execution will only improve.

>>52072392
That's actually very much in keeping with the generally 40k aesthetics. Just like the Imperator titan seems to house a fucking cathedral on its back, why not have minarets sprouting from Knights. I like it!

Nope. The pauldrons are part of the cloak components.
The lower half of the hammer shaft is actually part of his right leg, connected to the rock.
The hammer's upper shaft/head connects to the arm, which sockets under the left right pauldron.
His left arm connects at just above the elbow.

Have tried to circle the components.

Make sure it goes into the recesses. Don't just put it on willy nilly. Then paint everywhere but the recesses in order to define the muscles (Seriously though, models will will defined muscles are easy to paint because of how distinct the surfaces are).

Pretty good for a first guardsman. Now you just need 8,000 more.

Not bad but you need to be careful with the hand written lettering

Here is a couple tips

Dont so the black hosibg in flat black, use a really dark grey so you can still highlight and shade it

You tried doing the lettering in flat white wich wont work, you have to start with grey than build up to white but never actually use pure white

What's your recipe for the yellow?

>>52088609
Nice, I've got this same model. It was fun to put together and paint.

>>52083785
Looking solid.
Remember, you can up the lighting on the picture directly on your phone.

For pouches i would say mournfang brown and deathclaw brown.
Masks maybe zandri dust and ushabti bone?
The fatigues are to blueish for mechanicum standard grey i would go with something like russ grey.

>>52088448
Well shit you might be right. It could also be a random Custodes without a helmet but good eye. The banner next to him looks like the same as the kit.

literally what I was planning on doing

good to know it fits

"The uniforms of the disciples, their dresses and hats, are spun on the same loom that weaves the goblin's garments. The fabric is a woven parasite, its fibers absorbing the wearer's blood. These vestments enable the disciples to grip the ground with incredible strength allowing them to move freely through the Abyssal Woods even when everything around them is a swirling vortex."
"Beyond enabling the disciples to survive the hole of the forest, continued wear of their garments deepens a symbiotic relationship, granting them even greater understanding and power. However, an intense caloric intake is required to keep the fabric fed. This can pose a great challenge for young disciples, who often starve to death or are simply consumed by their hat."
Kingdom Death is a hell of a drug.

he gets mad and sad, but then gets over it

Gotta play the long game to fix shit. 40kg's got the fluff images. G money being all out of place and disconnected with the modern imperium is a recurring theme.

Just got my first airbrush, making a shopping list if things to pick up from the local art shop, I was told testors dull coat is a must for protecting the thin airbrush layers, is this true? Will the dullcoat ruin the shine on my metallic paints?

Thanks! The fact that y'all like them is really encouraging.

This yellow is corax white > averland sunset > 50/50 averland/yirel > 25/75 averland/yriel > dorn yellow for edge.

>>52090297
Thanks for the tip, I will definitely try that next time.

I almost got too cocky and went for a fist logo on one of the spaulders, but figured I wouldn't be able to pull it off.

Hey, are those The Harvest? They're a neat warband! Nice.

"Oh well, nevermind."

And that's how Guilliman was converted.

What are good starting Chaos Miniatures?

I mainly want a Tzeentch army of Thousand Suns, Tzaangors, Flamers, and eventually Magnus the Red. Which ones are good to start on for practice?

Chaotic Red? It seems a lot darker than Khorne Red. Khorne Red always come out a red wine color to me.

wow they really have no shame, I hope GW shuts down this fucking jew company

>>52071088

This looks like shit dude.
If you cant even pull it of on a test model, don't try it on a full force. You could at least have taken the time to get a thin flat coat and a good smooth transition between the .. what is it, shades?

Go back, re-do, make right. Oh and for the future, try actually get the model glued correctly, not leaving a big crack showing.

Wait shit, is it Dragon Red? That seems quite a lot closer.

>>52071318

I assume you will lay down a wash later on? But so far so good anon. But as >>52071322
mentions its a bit bright, but most of all "flat" if you could call it that. This will all be fixed with washes though I take it.

>>52092795
That's right. Chaotic Red is supposed to be their Mephiston Red equivalent.

>>52092795
Not only do they have terrible dog shit-tier paints, but they can't even paint with them?

Why isn't this company dead again?

beautiful anon

>>52078698

Looks good, but you could achieve wonders by simply taking a bit longer with the drybrush. Take you're time, and aim to make that contrast pop!
Mix in some black in the first base coat, go over it with something brighter to create shadows, and wok your way up to almost silver, and always work towards the top. This will give you that zenithal highlight effect. Finish by edge highlight of pure silver.

Other than this, I don't think there is much you can do. But remember, the metal is 90% of this dude, this is what you need to focus on to make him more interesting. Stripes looks great already, So does the brass and bolter.

>>52079067

I like it. All except the yellow/red segment. It looks to much like the candy cane effect and distract from an otherwise solid paintjob. Don't get me wrong, you can ad SOME yellow details, just not THOSE details

>>52087295

They are. I can't remember the name of the company off the top of my head, but they make terrain out of recycled rubber from car tires.

>>52079692

The base is to rusty for my taste. In the end it looks sloppy, and your missing out on some great details there.

But overall its a solid paintjob, good edge highlights, simple but straight shade, looks good (But then I saw the second picture´s "banana sword....cannot unsee)

Almost finished my tech priest, still little bits to do yet.

Im having a problem with my wet palettes guys. When I water down my paint a lot it soaks through. I'm pretty sure I'm using the right paper, its matte on one side and waxy on the other. If it's the right paper should the paint stay on top of the paper not matter how watered down it is?

Kids today... When I started a good 20years back, we would cry tears of joy with a simple page like this. I guess, now days, when you get master class painting tutorials from some of the best in the business, with the click of a button, its no big deal. But I still remember those days when being kids, we thought ourselves genius for "inventing" the drybrush metal over a black base!

>>52093361
Yeah, back when I started in 1997 we didn't have videos and I had to trial and error a whole lot.

I stripped my chimera but the primer refuses to come off.
I used the gw chaos black primer and purple power. Is it safe to prime over without losing details?

Close up. Don't see any noticeable detail lose, just some minor damage from assembly when I did it the first tine

>>52094346
Spray a couple of light coats of primer, should be fine.
