WIP - /wipg/ Painting and Modeling Thread

Thanks, anon, I kind of feel like an idiot being spoon fed that review since it's the first review to come up on Google but it's definitely helpful. The idea of the parts kits can be helpful, although it might be better to hold out and abide by the buy once, cry once idea instead.

That being said, any felliw german/austrianfags here? What do you use for stripping paint? I want to redo my Necrons, but just painting over the previous layers, thin as they may be, seems wrong.
Also, how's a metallic blue for Necrons, kinda like pic related? I can use other colours to mix up too, but blue is the one I currently have at home.

I finally have the pieces I made for some Dawn of War-esque terrain. Here's the Plasma Generator pieces. I'm surprised, they came out really well. All that needs to be done here is cut the acrylic rod and everything will fit together flawlessly. I don't even need to sand anything down really. The bottom two are translucent because they are internal supports for the "floating" side panels.

>>54397727
Sorry anon, the 40kg just has me conditioned like Pavlov and hus dogs. I see unpainted Tau, I must shitpost.

And here's the pieces for the Path to Enlightenment. I made everything but the round piece in back and the tubes, which are actually legos. There's a fire warrior in there for scale. These I have a big piece of 5mm plywood for that I need to cut a base out of. Looks like it takes up a 7"x7" area.

I really look forward to painting it

Just picked one of these guys up today. I want to use him as a conversion for my death guard, but I'm not what he's going to end up being until I can look at an actual codex. I'm thinking Lord or preferably lieutenant equivalent if thhey exist.

Any general tips on how to make someone like this look more 40k besides just slapping a gun at his hip?

>>54398394
Well, just make sure to distinguish the green and orange/yellow/tan bits, or they will be overwhelmed by the green

>>54398479
You might want a powerpack and some tubes on him. A gun, obviously, and maybe a rusty chainweapon?

>>54398479
Up-armor him, fancy up his axe (Either make it look like a power weapon or add some mechanical bitz, give him a spess muhreen backpack of some sort.

Hey /wip/ I just ordered my first 10 man kill team!
I'm open for suggestions on what chapters should be included in it but my only stipulation is that if it happens I'd onlyblike 1 pair of marines from the same chapter.

Currently working on the first strike box set to run demo games. Criticism appreciated (I know I have shitty lighting).

>>54398479
Get a CSM backpack for him and put one of the pauldrons on his unarmored arm. You could also try to add some tubes, like maybe one connecting to his helmet.

>>54398510
That'll be the test of whether or not I can make this scheme attractive on the table.

An angry marine for shits and giggles, a lamenter because i want you to hate yourself trying to do the checker pattern and one of /tg/'s homebrew chapters. Maybe those aztec dudes or the guys with the big shields, they seem bretty cool.

>>54398417
The mellerud stuff isn't gonna do anything to the plastic.
At least not in my experience.
I usually left my minis to soak for 24 hours before giving them a scrub and then repeating the process for the ones that were caked in primer or something like that.

It works, but you'll need to do a lot of scrubbing. As I said, it's not great.

>>54398585
A dark green could reasonably work and contrast enough with the other colours, if they're a bit brighter.

>>54398559
why not just use all the pads in the kit once

If first founding legions trigger you, I'm pretty sure you can still get 10 unique successor chapters out of two 5-man boxes.

>>54398634
They are bright and im priming white too. The green is Death World Forest Base, Underhive Ash Drybrush, Athonian Camoshade Wash.

>>54398559
You can do a lot of different chapters with the same pads, just different colors.

83 is either Imperial Fists and Crimson Fists
92 Is Black Consuls, White Consuls and the new Mentors badge too.
93 Is Nova Marines, and while the halo of the Sons of Medusa only has 8 points and not 12 it's a fairly minor detail or easy to convert in any case.
85 Space Wolves and I believe either Shadow or Iron Wolves. Red badge on dark grey shield.
88 Ravenwing and Hawk Lords.
94 Minotaurs, Brazen Minoturs, White Minotaurs and Tauran
97 I think aside from Black Templars there are also White Templars. Should look that up, would be surprised if the badge hadn't been recycled though.
98 Forgot the name, the red and blue quartered guys and the orange chaper (Knights of Gryphonne?) use this.

That's already almost 20 different chapters without even using all the pads.

No promises on that whole "less" part, but I will definitely try to tell a story with the splatter and not just coat them in it all over.

>>54399175

1st tell those guys to eat a dick. Then tell them how can run an auxillary squad that's an elite choice, though at -1 CP (bummer, but worth it to me because FUN), that can be from whatever faction you want because it's a seperate detachment. It's still battleforged because you have your main detachment, probably a battalion, and then the elite choice is a different detachment.

Or, you can run the vangaurd detachment, like I am going to when I finish my counts as vindicare, callidus and cypher models, alongside another detachment.

>>54399538

Stick some more armour on his other arm. Give him a backback.

Maybe glue some plasticard or something in the neck area to look like the gorget of his armour poking out from the flesh that grew around it.

Stick a plagued up version of a servoskull or a cyber cherub or something on his base with him.

Give his ax a power supply or a chain edge or something.

Any suggestions for what I could use it as in a 40k chaos army?

on a subjective note: try for more dynamic poses.

It's really unfortunate, but 40k doesn't have "lord on dragon" type characters. All our mounts are very small. Nurgle lords exist, mounted Chaos lords exist, but nothing that big. I think you might have to use it as a Greater Daemon or something.

>>54399713

Just paint over the flatter/exposed area with the bronze leaving the turqoise in the deeper areas.

How shit a conversion idea is this, I've been mulling it over a while.

Get the cheapo Chadmarine Scouts, swap their heads for cybered to fuck ones, replace their space deagles and knives with pile bunkers and some kind of huge mining laser type gun arm and swap the backpacks for more arcane looking ones.

Then add mechanical gubbins like callipers/pistons on the legs, hoses, pipes and canisters of glowing liquid, and paint them suitably construction vehicle style as "Demolition Servitors" (counts as Kataphron Breachers).

>>54401768
if you can paint at that level already you should be able to paint fucking black.

I've watched some Duncan vids already, and of some War Gamer guy. I'm just not sure if its better to get the set (seems nice since it's 8 paints) or a few cheap separate primaris minis and paint set. The second option is cheaper but that way I get 6 paints. Thanks.

>>54402887
It might sound a bit shilly but yes grab that box AND if you can afford it, the hobby tools box, which should be around 20 euros. That way you should have everything you need, for basically a long time. You can also look at the Army Painter starting sets, I think they have one with all the basic tools as well, probably cheaper than GW.


After that, like the olther anon said, watch LOADS of tutotrals from Warhammer TV. Thy'ere simple, well made, and can bring you a long way with all the different tips found in the hundreds of videos they made.

>>54402789

Just fucking hightlight dark reaper, thunderhawk blue and fenrisian grey you moron

I'm going to grab one of those "Easy to build" Chads box as soon as I can, that's for sure.
But how do I make them tacticooler? What bits could I use? What heads? I don't play 40k, so I don't have to make them usable for the game.

Has anyone else found the blue plastic GW are using for some of their new stuff softer and more brittle than the old/grey?

>>54402879
I like it, but I would prefer to have a distinct green color, instead of the yellowish.

>>54403192

Almost always an oxymoron when comparing material properties. I've only had the green death guard ones and I'd say it's a little harder and more brittle, but not to a point where it had any negative effect.

As for buying from GW, the other guy on youtube mentioned alchemistworkshops for buying minis cheaper than GW site so I'm not sure if it's better to order stuff from them. A local gaming store I found close to me has some stuff cheaper, but some way more expensive.

there was a guy here who made "terrible" power sword transition, but i actually liked how he did it and then highlighted it giving the whole thing a cartoony effect. Does anyone have any pics of his here?

Does anyone know of a tutorial to paint the old eavy metal kasrkin camo style.

For the absolvers one you could bits order a bunch of blood angels pads with the chalice.

If you are don't like transfers, or like me are unable to use them on anything but a flat surface, you could also look into custom pads from shapeways.
There's a guy (pop goes the monkey) that recently started doing curved symbols, i.e. logos you can stick on any shoulderpad. Come on a sprue of 60 for ~20$ I think.
Since he is still building that product line atm you may be able to request them if they are not around already.

Just finished my scouts. Overall I think I did well for my ability level, but I've also got some gripes:
I didn't base coat white for the faces on the black haired guys and that makes their faces look especially awful.
The eyes got out of hand in some places.
I was sloppy with some of the smaller details that're really hard to fix. I don't know if they're worth going back for though.
I painted each color on the whole model at once instead of doing it based ok the needs of each part and as a result there's some gray hiding in the cracks.
Non-gripes:
I think the fatigues turned out well. I kinda like this crap brown that I made.
I'm happy with my posing and the bits.
On the brown haired guys I tried the angled brush technique for highlighting and I think it turned out pretty well.

>>54404230

First model painted after after a long hiatus. The last box I bought before dark imperium was the battle for black reach

>tfw never finished that box

Any advice welcome. Still find highlighting is a pain in the ass as the paint is so clumpy and thick even after watering down. Need more experimentation, could be shit brushes.

Hello gents, looking for advice:
I've started building my kharadron overlords ships and I've been thinking about their base, so my idea is to have some sorta snowy mountains peaks coming out from the clouds below.
While the peaks won't be hard to do, I was wondering which would be the most effective way to make some clouds of sort.
Any suggestion is welcome, thanks mates!

>>54404473
You could try ripping up cotton ball and forming it into clouds. If you rip them they'll stay in shape and are naturally fluffy.

Also, dirt cheap.

It's only an auspex (then known as a "bio-scanner") in Russ Nicholson's "Covert Ops" illustration. The actual Brother Craig model is clearly reloading his bolter; you can see the unexpended bolts in the magazine. There is at least one other illustration based on the model showing that.

>whats the purpose of glossy nuln oil, why would you want that?

I was firmly in the "why would you want that?" camp until last weekend when I saw two Space Marine models in a side-by-side comparison. Both had been based with Leadbelcher, but one had been shaded with the glossy Nuln Oil, and one had the regular version. They both work, but it's an entirely different effect that I never thought I could possibly like.

>>54404327

Not too bad mate.

What I'd personally recommend is going them over again, and tidying up stuff like the pouches and the eyes and mouths. I'd probably give them a gentle wash too, that helps hide paint overlap in the crevices and gives depth.

Funnily some of your edge highlights are pretty good, it's almost like you're running before you can walk.

>>54404925
Honestly I'm going to blame the sloppiness on the scout models. While with marines you can just base coat everything one color and then do details, on scouts you have to base coat with like four different colors in close proximity to each other so it's easy to run one onto the other.

I'll try cleaning up a bit and then see how things go.

Decided to redo the nice table an anon did for us quite some time ago, putting the chapter in a certain logical order, the Founding Legions in each line at first, in their order, then Successors in the same line.

Salamanders and Space Wolves are going to be a pain in the ass for my (tiny) autism, as I'll be forced to put in non-succesors chapters to fill in the voids, something I wanted to do only at the end of the table. Anyhoo.

Will take some time since I do everything by hand, not exactly the most tech savy person, and I want roughly the same kind of image for each chapter, with the exception of FW-typed ones and sometimes the B&C ones when I don't have any other choice.

Will post when I'm done, hopefully tomorrow, if not, the day after.

Primaris Johnny anon from last night here

I've given some more thought about my Johnny and its base. While the classic Goblin Green and some flocking was planned, shouldn't a new Johnny get a new base? I'm trying to think of a base that sets it apart as its own thing but harkens back of Johnnies of old. Any ideas?

I'd mainly just feel bad putting my first real conversion on such a plain base but it feels right thematically as well

The only Johnny in the collage that actually has something resembling an old-style base is the original Blood Angel one, which just green with flock glued on - not Goblin Green painted over sand and drybrushed with a yellow-green mixture, which is how a lot of those old 2nd Edition bases were done.

All of the other Johnnies in the collage have a different style of base, so yeah, why shouldn't yours get a new base too?

Help meeeee

Sounds neat. Posts pics if you put the idea into action.

>>54407519

Will do!

I got the idea from reading their rule for 'Curse of the Walking Pox' every time they get a kill they add another model to their unit.

So I'm think, well shit what if they just have a bunch of dudes that look like zombies of those units they killed. You could do some really cool conversions with that, Orks, Marines, Tau...

The modern version of goblin green bases would be steel legion drab around the rim and either stirland mud with multiple patches of green flock, or astrogranite and whatever wash/drybrush 'Eavy Metal does for urban bases. I think they might actually use grey for astrogranite bases but steel legion drab is basically the current goblin green for base rims.

Fire warriors. Still a lot to do, but Ive got a question.

How do you guys tackle the recesses in their armour for example? Do you paint a line in them or do them by shading and then layering everything besides the recesses?

Im still a newbie and its frigging difficult to paint these suckers.

That will work, I suppose, but you're going to want one that has a handle that turns, like the tool in the middle here. I have another one with collettes on both ends (the bottom tool), and it starts digging into the palm of your hand pretty quickly.

That being said, you can get some pretty useful stuff at Michaels. If you're passing by and have ten minutes to spare, go in there with a 40%-off coupon pulled up on your smartphone and buy yourself a decent brush for a few dollars. Do this often enough, and pretty soon you'll have a sizeable collection of half-decent brushes of various sizes for not a lot of money.

The 99-cent brushes, though? Are they the cheap-o (I ask because Artists Loft also makes some higher-end brushes) Artist's Loft ones? They're not much good for anything besides mixing paint, transferring paint from pot to pallet, and maybe drybrishing, since you shouldn't mind ruining them.

>>54408434
What people like to do is you wash the whole model in the nuln oil/agrax earthshade and then use another layer of a lighter paint you used earlier to clean up the whole thin except recesses.

Yup, that is what I do.
Still, those models are far smaller than space marines so its such a drag for a newbie like me, who painted like 7 models in my life.

But I shall fight on then.

>>54408525
If you do like to do an all over wash what you can do it make a 50/50 mix of matt/gloss wash. It goes into all of the crevasses with no problem and doesn't leave a dirty tide look. Much less cleaning up.

Woowee are they craptacular (brushes on left side)
But i will definitely get use out of them as drybrushes and disposable test brushes

On the right side are the $5 brushes i got that are actually decent and seem on par with the more expensive brushes i saw today

>>54408743
Thanks, but man 125€ and I only really want this guy and one other plague marine from that box.

>>54408396
Looks good, if you think it's worth it, you can try to get a center-punch so you can better center the barrels. Also they might need to be a bit deeper.

>>54408853
Just buy them on ebay

Any thoughts on getting an orange like this? I'm thinking two slightly different shades of orange in a psuedo camo pattern, throwing an orange or maybe even red shade over it, then a yellow glaze? I need to buy paints as I have only ever done DA and necron colors so I'd ideally like a plan beforehand. Will the glaze give it a shine or is that not what they're meant for?

>>54402534

Nice Job anon! They look good for tabletop and if you want to make little more impact make couple of highlights by mixing little bit of white to your paint. Oh and welcome back!

Hey anon you were right, they do look pretty good with bolters. Might round off the knee pads to get a more traditional SM look though.
