Johnny for the WIP thread.

Hopelessly reposting!

What do you guys do for terrain? Any cool builds you want to share? Saving for a house=gaming on a budget, still want a decent table. Any hints?
>>
>>54268335
Do you have any theme for your table?
Because, if you're going for a desertic look, polyurethane rocks are really easy to make. Usually modelling threes are not very expensive too.

>>54268374

Probably a mixture of resist colored rock (think new mexico) and some broken down buildings. Maybe like a wrecked area51 kinda feel
>>
>>54268335
Buy a square of pink or blue insulation foam. A 2x2 square is cheap and will net you enough for a decent amount of LoS blocking hills/cliffs.

The rest can be done with spare containers, corrugated card, cereal boxes, etc.

Death Guard work in progress.

I did a few things like attach a fly swarm from the Maggoth kit onto the back of one guy, and painted a tank of slime on another.

Plus I clipped down a fair few bones and tentacles, and did a greenstuff head out of an old venerable dreadnought head.

I'm building a Sternguard squad with the hooded heads from the DA Company Vets set, the cloaks and tacticool vests from Anvil, and the rest of the bits from the Sternguard and Tac Marine sets, respectively. Planning on giving all the cloth a sort of digital-camo like pattern with various greys and blues, but I'm having trouble deciding on a color scheme for the squad.

Chapter colors are Kantor Blue/gunmetal highlights, but since these guys are tacticool I'm thinking about making the highlights light grey instead. Thoughts?

Also, go easy with camo: if it works too well, your miniatures are going to look like grey splotches of indistinct forms on the table (which is usually the purpose of the camo).
Grey highlights may work, yeah

Digital is too modern for 40k (for Imperials anyway; makes more sense for Tau). Splinter's easier to pull off (an airbrush and some tape makes it ridiculously easy).

Hey /wip/, need a bit of advice. I want to make a wet palette and have everything I need but the baking/parchment paper. I've tested what I have at home by placing it over a sponge and pouring water on then waiting a minute. After a minute, sponge was still dry so that seems like a bust.
Can you guys recommend appropriate stuff to use from amazon so I can just order it in? Not done this before so really not sure what specific ones will work.

just finished something i was working on this evening and thought i'd share here. keen to hear any constructive criticism.
>>
>>54270080
Why would you order it from Amazon? Almost every grocery store in the union sells the stuff.
>>
>>54269019
2 too many
>>
>>54270351
Because local supermarket only sells two or three types and they all are 'greaseproof baking paper' with no differentiation. So I assume they're all the same as this. At least with Amazon if someone says 'oh, get <x> brand one' I don't have the issue of 'oh wait that's america-only, sorry'.
>>
would it be a bad thing to do a Valkyrie in an Admech scheme?
>>
>>54270080
you wet the sponge then put the paper on top, or what am I missing?
>>
>>54270468
Some baking paper is basically impermeable to the water, like the stuff I tried. Sponge was bone dry when I tested by placing it under the paper then pouring water on, so unless there's something odd going on that should mean the water wouldn't get through from the sponge to the paint if I wet the sponge.
>>
>>54270435
Don't really know what I'm talking about, but from what I've seen you want baking parchment, not greaseproof paper.
>>
>>54270604

Should something like this work? As noted, genuinely clueless on this but it's parchment baking sheets so maybe? If anyone can give confirmation it'd be much appreciated. Hoping to get this ready before my paints arrive.
>>
What's a quick way to paint the Sector Imperialus board with accompanying terrain? I'm half tempted to just use some spray cans to put some quick color on it.
>>
>>54270725
It should do, but that's only going off the word "parchment". You can do as much yourself offline, which should be much cheaper.
>>
>>54270899
I think Duncan made a tutorial on that
>>
>>54270911
Annoyingly, only place nearby I could buy it I already checked and only found baking paper of same type that I have and tested. To get to next-nearest place that might sell it, it would cost 4 quid (!?) whilst that stuff is £5.45 with free delivery. You can see why i'd be happier just ordering that if it works since chances are decent it'd be equal price or less to order that.

I bought "If You Care parchment baking paper" on Amazon and it works good. I think the roll was in the 4-6 dollar range, and after a year I've run through less than half

>>54271438
Oh, sweet, that's the one I checked. If that's the case, guess i'll order it. Thanks anon. Worst comes to worst, I have parchment paper for baking so it's not as if it's not still useful.
>>
>>54268736
I had the same problem with yellow and grey and sometimes red where I had thinned the paint too much (with water). It seemed like at some point the paint significantly changed properties. Not thinning as much actually solved my problem for all of these

Asked this in the /40kg/ but thought I'd ask again here

How would you boys create a larger Warboss? Warboss 'FernoMaw needs to be big and THICC.

Also how could I do him wreathed in fire? He likes fire.

>>54272662
The idea behind them was that Cawl experimented with the gene seed of the Traitor Legions as a testing bed for future generations, creating a chapter that combined all nine legion's seed and observing how they developed. As a result they're often stress-tested, flung into the harshest of war zones against the most heretical of foes to see if they would fall due to their nature or if their nurture prevented this fate.
>>
>>54272772
So your warboss is an asshole
>>
>>54272492
I'm gonna be super nitpicky here
>1. Storm Wardens
Needs change the armor plates on the hip to blue and also either the insets of the pads or the fists.
>2. Sons of Medusa Successor
Don't like the kneepads. Do them green or pick a neutral color like black.
>3. Homebrew Chapter
Same thing, not a fan of the kneepads. White or a neutral color.
Ideally you'd also only have on kneepad a different color to indicate company or whatever. Don't know how exactly that applies to the new guys though...
>4. Homebrew Chapter partially inspired by Atom.
If you do the lower legs and codpiece in yellow too it looks alright.
Not a fan of Atom though.
>>
>>54272492
You realize if you run storm wardens you are obligated to field an honor guard with all relic blades?
>>
>>54272772
>How would you boys create a larger Warboss?
Mega armor or nekkid?
Ghazkull is still the biggest stock ork in mega armor, but the assault on black reach and the other new plastic warboss with attack squig are bigger orks without armor. If you want to go even bigger use an Ogre models or something eqivalent. Just make sure they have a somewhat Gorilla like posture, when you make your pic.
>Also how could I do him wreathed in fire? He likes fire.
Don't. That's a terrible idea. But braiziers with fire and small gastanks or something like that on the back of his armor, but none of that super sajayin shit. Doesn't make any sense for the setting.
>Pic Completely related

whaaag energy does not work like that. There are things you can and can't explain away with it, but thar is just lazy.

For a mega nob you could check out the kromlech ones. They are quite a bit taller than Ghazzy.
Alternatively you could try to covert an AoS model.
May take a lot of elbow grease and plastic card to make it look right though.

If you want to be proper orky, have him literally set himself on fire. Like, some promethium and a match courtesy of a burna boy. He's just 'ard enough to power through it and be fine!

I'm not telling him not to do it, just saying I think it's a bad idea.

That said, there is kind of a precedent for something similar.
The legion of the Damned. They were said to have contracted an omnious 'warp disease' of some sort that makes them appear to be in flames in the old fluff. Though I don't know if they changed that explanation in the new codex.
It also had to do something with their geneseed since they were cursed founding. So only half applicable to ork physiology, but still better than whaaag energy imo.
Waagh energy was described as something more subtle than making stuff appear out of thin air as far as I recall.

Anyway, saying your warboss contracted a warp disease that already exists in the source material would make more sense to me than saying 'he thinks it's cool so it just happens', even if he doesn't have the geneseed for it.

The 'waaagh did it' is the same level of lazyness for an ork player as 'an inquisitor did it' for imperial players.

Aside from that, this is WIP. The point of being here is getting constructive feedback of some sort.
So here's a tutorial.

1 if the white was changed to silver. 3 if the white was changed to bone.

Just my personal taste but almost never like white.
>>
>>54273760
I've employed the Dunk Plasma Coil Stratagem before but the same problem as other paint schemes was in this one. The coils are lit from within, ergo the brightest light should be in the recesses and the outermost edges should be the darkest.

Of course the darkest is still lit by a fucking sun/decklights so it'll be a bright blue.

Now that you say it I do have the head in the pic lying around. Seems like it would make a good fit with the rest of the robe. All I potentially need is to make some holes for the antlers.

I'm getting the impression he has burna' exhaust ports all over his armor, and has a kustom burna iron gob piece that spews flame whenever he yells "waaaagh!" or something.

My army is almost done all I got left is to paint this banner and I wanted to take a shot at free handing some art rather than just painting a large symbol of some sorts

Any advice/guides on freehanding something like this?

My idea was to paint a space marine kneeling with the shadowy figure of a dreadnought standing behind and over him representing the chapters reverence towards becoming a dreadnought

slap on a varnish on the banner area you're going to paint, this gives you a save point if you fuck up. Only tip I can give is go slowly, get the outlines done as you can always block in everything later

Hey /wip/, got a few quick questions for you. Might be a question for /hhg/, but it's a grey area.

I'm painting up my nerdy boys and need your input on which style of bolter looks better for thousand sons:

Standard black and steel parts
White casing and steel parts
White casing, steel parts, gold ejection ports
Or white casing and all brass/gold parts like pic related.

Secondly, I've heard of many people using the 40k sekhmet tartaros terminators with the bird motifs shaved off as 30k sekhmet, but can I do the same for rubrics?

Would the crests and armor be time-appropriate if painted red? I was thinking of using them as veterans with the soulreaper cannons ad stand ins for suspensor heavy bolters, but only if the models would actually wear that style of armor through the heresy.

I'll post with the same question again from the last thread. Does the Tyranid head impaled on the banner look too Chaos like? I'm considering adding the piece to the right on top of it (after cutting off that bottom thing.) Or maybe putting that part on the banner first then putting the head on top of it.

Looks good as is. Adding the winged cup will make it look too tall.

I think it's fine as-is. You don't have to be chaos to be heavy metal, loyalist Marines can be brutal too.

I'm satisfied with the shape and hopefully when I prime and paint it, it won't be too obviously amateur green-stuff hour looking.

I bought a 3D printer to make costumes and props with but I have been putting it through paces and practicing with miniatures. My printer is a very nice printer and detail is not a problem - heated bed, dual extrusion, all that fancy shit. I can retopologize models so they're smooth before printing and I can post-process the prints to baby butt smooth after printing.

The problem is that I have the painting skills of a tranquilized mountain goat. I also don't have even the most basic materials to paint models competently. How do I go about finding and paying a painter to make my models look like something other than a gray piece of plastic? Put an ad up at a local game store? Craigslist? Do game stores have model painting nights where I can learn from other people?

The models usually aren't complicated - it's stuff like pieces of scenery and Pokemon

Sometimes, depends on the store. There's no real standards for this kind of thing.

So I need a bit of input on some conversion ideas.
I'm thinking for my 30k Kharn, the new reiver sgt head would be cool but I'm unsure of how the size lines up going from a primaris to regular marine, if it's noticeable or not.
The wraith is for an Inq warband, sort of a bodyguard role for heavily (Dark) mechanicum influenced group so guitar string etc. will be thrown in but I'm wondering what to give em as hands, got some options lined up from the bits box in his picture but the sicarian parts would do nicely too so need help making a decision.
Lastly need some input on the sniper's pose and which head I should take for it, suggestions outside the ones lined up are welcome too.
>>
>>54273261
Personally, I would ditch the whole backpack as it is too iconically Girlyman. I;d then replace it with a (messier) kitbashed backpack. I'd recommend giving him a raptor jump pack, or even a blend of both (it is chaos).

>Kharn
Personally, I don't know, but logically it should. (Make sure to lose the hair though, and give him the butchers nails)
>Wraith.
Heavy dark mechanicum influence, bodyguard role. Since its a Wraith, I would suggest the sword, (think Cyber Nazgul)
>Sniper.
I would go for the one second from the right, as it has a bulky bionic eye that could be considered to be an in built scope of some kind, allowing for longer range shots? Dunno.

Thanks for the input.

Aside from the reiver head, hunting down the fw helmeted head is the next best fit since I kind of hate the bare head in the fw kit. I may not even alter the reiver head if I get it, the nails just always look goofy or just plain bad to me.

I'll likely do a melee arm and ranged weapon arm combination. I may look up some blanchitsu stuff on that one to see if there's some range of bits I'm leaving out.

That was the head I was leaning towards. The pose looks fine? It seemed kinda weird with em crouched with the left knee down but I'm left handed and I have no idea if it would be uncomfortable to hold a rifle like that but that was my last free set of crouching legs.

I'm not quite sure I get what you're going for. You're using them as actual chaos spawn models?

If you painted and flocked it right you might be able to pull off the "ruined concrete/stone building with shitloads of moss growing all over the sides" look, but other than that it's way too rough.

Okay my point is that when you convert a model it still has to look like it could act in universe in a way that fits with the tabletop stats it is given or to my mind it isn't a great conversion. I'm not sure an ogryn shield with a tentacle quite fulfills the the characteristics of big, fast hard hitting but but albeit random monster. If you don't care and think that literally anything random could be a chaos spawn then fine, but I think it's valid criticism.

I guess I thought I had greater liberties with the models after reading the data for the unit. I know they're "fast attack", but 7" of movement really doesn't seem that "quick" to me.

"Fearsome, hideous mutation , and mutated beyond reason" I feel are incredibly broad terms. I see what you mean though.

Anyways, thanks for letting me know. Should I refrain from posting future (similar) models on WIP? In all honesty, I dont want to bother you guys with my crap if it's all 'that guy ' material.

Nah post what you want as long as you're hobbying. People will always critique it and you can take or leave their critiques. Absolutely nothing wrong with posting these things especially if you post painting progress too. The main reason I post on here is to get a mix of opinions, I mostly get positive feedback but any criticism is worth listening to even if you disregard it.

Thanks man, that's good advice. I just don't want to be "that guy" with my models. I realize the shield one I made is short, while the sword is really tall.

But at the same time, the great unclean one model (forge world, I have) is significantly larger than the GW one...

How do you police model scale? How can I avoid being that guy with my models?

keep in mind, I will only play with my custom models with the go-ahead from my opponent
>>
>>54280387
>How do you police model scale? How can I avoid being that guy with my models?

Since 40k uses "actual" line of sight, if your model is a whole lot smaller/thinner etc than the "correct" model, you are gaining an advantage, that's why people might not like it.

Rule of thumb? Try and make conversions that are about the same bulk/size as what they are supposed to be.

Personally, so long as it is about the same size, and has the same size base, I don't mind scratch-builds etc.
>>
>>54280387
To my mind it's just a matter of making your models look like they are. My own GUO is bout half way in size between the FW and GW models, but I don't think anyone would find it difficult to tell what it is or isn't. That said, I haven't actually played with my army so maybe I'm off base entirely.

I see you're following the Duncan tutorial. For the wings I recommend you don't drybrush any further. Mine started looking like ass so I redid all the feather highlights and colour grading by hand.

I want to buy a huge apocalypse urban table so I bought 3 mdf plates each 1x2 meters, totalling for a 3x2 meters. But I was too enthusiast and I'm now realising it's hard to move the models when put in the middle of the board unless you have fuckhuge arms. I feel like a retard now

Neither really strike me as spawn, more like the after math of some chaos magic. Pic related is of a spawn I built for myself. Spawn are about 2 inches tall and go on a terminator base, those are the most important parts as far as most people playing the game are concerned so that it matches the profile of a GW kit. Somehow /tg/ tends to be the most honest and helpful with advice than other places. I would actually recommend buying the spawn box, I've built 5 spawn with bits from it, also see if any nid players in your area have some spare parts that they are willing to give you.

>>54280870
Craters are where a big impact has hit the ground, so keep them as low down as possible, and only have raised bits on the very edges of the terrain. Look at real and artistic craters for reference.
>>
>>54280949
Looks pretty cool, got my first set of nomads coming tomorrow (i think) how much clean up did those guys need?
>>
>>54281016
A normal amount. Biggest problem is that the mold lines are super obvious if you leave them up (there are still a few visible that I missed in cleaning as I did it all in one night).
>>
>>54268736
You're not airbrushing. That's what you're doing wrong.

Hey folks just a quick question about green stuff.
How poisonous is it? I used it to repair a water bottle and before drinking from it, will I get ill? It will touch the water since I repaired cracks in the cork with it.
>>
>>54278515
FUCK i broke the wings, nobody would want them anyway...

It's mostly Vallejo Earth and Flat Flesh with various washes to simulate makeup. Just gotta make sure to color match things like rouge and lipstick to the skin tone and outfit you're using.

Hey /tg/, recently went to the air force museum in Ohio, and brought back a souvenir. Its a model kit for MI-24 hind.

Dried greenstuff as a whole blob is not dangerous, but it is stupid as fuck to use it to repair containers you are regularly using to store foodstuffs.

Greenstuff dust and flakes can cause cancer or a toxic reaction if you ingest a lot of it.

Othala is homeland, inheritance, estate, noble, as well as being the Oath rune.

The only issue with it is that its not technically Odins rune, that is Ansuz, but Othala is often used in association with Odin.

Plus Ansuz doesn't look as cool.

Thanks anon! I was leaning towards a navy blue scheme, but I like the khaki and red idea too.

And I hear you about waiting, too. The index is so hollow. I think I'm pretty lucky, because I just play 4th edition with a couple of friends, so I always know what my options are. But just a heads up, these guys are really hard plastic and have lots of gross mold lines, so it takes a while to model them up--I'd suggest getting a jump on building them now, even if its only the normal troopers! You can save officer and special weapon modeling for later, once you get a more fleshed-out codex.

I'm not sure where you're getting oath from. I studied proto germanic/ anglo saxon/ runic alphabets a bit while at university and the odal/ othala rune is mostly associated with the end state of amassed material/ familial wealth, your heritage and the end of the journey (of life).

There isn't actually, as far as I am aware, an 'Oath rune' per se - the common practice (while the elder futhark was being in use) was to swear on a personal object, like an arm ring.

You might wanna look at Tiwaz, Algiz or Eihwaz though. Or, you know, just go for whatever looks coolest.

With specific PITA paints like grey I've found the trick is to either thin them so much that you're just painting on water and the brush strokes disappear as it dries, or try using medium as it melds with the paint better.

Not to keep going on at you, but my only problem with the spawn is that they don't appear to have had much thought put into their designs. I'm pretty lenient with height and models used, but a conversion should look like it was designed with purpose, people can really pick up on the "I had this lying about" models.

Maybe a bunch of people swore oaths on "their estate"? Like, "I swear this upon my children's inheritance" kind of thing? Then the rune would be found a lot in association with oaths, and may cause that confusion?
