Almost finished my death guard rhino. Couple weekends of work went into this guy. Happy with the results tho. Took a risk and used a toothbrush to flick on blood marks, hadn't tried it before and rushed fucking everything up but it turned out well. Would recommend

So do you guys watch uncle atom videos?
I started watching him because of the light box on OP but goddamn, I've seen a many of his videos just for his voice, it's so warm and calms me.

>>54771520
I personally would go with the same purple used on the cloth to tie everything rohether. Too many random colours makes the model look disjointed. Unless it's something specific that really needs to be a particular colour, I'd keep the palette as limited as possible.

>So do you guys watch uncle atom videos?
Not really.
He's got a good video about which army to chose though, I've posted that a few times when the inevitable 'what army is best' thread pops up.

I don't always agree with what he says. But at least he usually explains his opinions and is one of the few people that acts like a normal person on youtube.

I used to watch the terranscapes videos a while ago to relax and zone out to though. So if you are looking for something relaxing to watch I'd recommend those.

>>54771968
the blood on sides is good, but if you want to make it look like it ran over/impaled people, I would definitely recommend more blood on the treads and possibly on the lower front part of the hull, above and below the spikes

Having second thoughts about this marinelet lieutenant I'm building, /wip/; I thought the pauldron scroll would add some motion to the pose (like he's spinning to face something), now I'm not so sure. What do you think?

>>54773080
i think it is fine. just make it a captain. same points , more gear options, being a manlet is no issue, extra HQs for brigades. they are just better.

>>54773080
The assault squad set comes with one made specifically for pauldrons, but it's for the left one. The ones that come with the Tactical set are meant to be tabbards so they aren't as dynamic, but what you have looks pretty alright to me.

>>54771977

I like his videos but the content is just so retarded and basic.

I feel like your Termagants need something on their back plates, cause those ones in the front left look like they're made of playdough from the picture

>>54771520

Use the official color if you want a canon weapon, otherwise I'd say either magenta or blue, so it doesn't clash with the scheme you've already established.

Painting Buddha really manages to both awe and relax me. His tutorials have value as well if you are looking to showcase paint.

Claws work but everything else is shit. Going to remove the leg nipple spike things on all the others but this is a test model so I'll do it to this one when it's stripped.

Thoughts on a skin colour?

I want to kit bash a DP for my Iron Warriors, but I'm not sure how to go about it. I do like the maulerfiend model but is it to big to use as a baseline?

i mean it's really not bad, it does look like a slaaneshi daemon, if that's what you are asking but, too bad you didn't base it with Slaanesh grey, since Druuchi violet would

Finished highlighting these Hellblasters' armor last night. Gonna paint up the plasma coils tonight.

Still working on getting stronger edge highlights -- just started painting again after ~7 years.

>>54775288
yes, do it anyway though.

Where can I get Raptors decals?

>>54775288
Sorry but that's extremely dumb. How's a bug supposed to become a vehicle unless you're going to use the head to mount on the front.

Just finished assembling my blood angel terminators. I need to still highlight and wash before they're finished, but how's this for old-school tournament quality?

>>54775335
Was going to take some ideas from little huts they put on elephant backs for archers to hold up in and shoot from, but in this case it'd probably be two mini bunkers or platforms on the Tervigon's back on either side of his vents, possibly with some people manning mounted turrets. Then maybe the driver sits at the base of his neck holding some chains to act as its reigns

Iunno, I'd just hate to not do anything with this Tervigon and my army is all infantry right now. Figured a quick brainstorm into making it usable wouldn't hurt too badly

Stop being retarded, the model just isn't suitable for the army you want to put it in.

So like an elder kind of look? That might look cool. The back spines would be a pain to work around though.
Alternatively you could buy 30 termagants and use them together to start a tyranids force. Bringing back 10 gants each turn for free is amazing.

You're doing a fantastic chapter though, if you can lighten that green a bit it'll be perfect. Show them off when you're done!

Hello /tg/, I am just getting into 40k, and the last time I painted anything was as a child. I would prefer to not ruin any of my spess mahreens, so...where should I start with learning? I'm not blind, I see the links at the top, but as a complete neophyte, how do I get started?

>>54775834
If you're using acrylic paints, you're not going to ruin anything. Can always strip the paint off. If you're worried check out some tutorials and work on the basics. You'll improve with practice, and don't try to get too complicated too soon.

>>54775834

Start with either a cheaper, simpler model, or one that you simply don't like as much!

If you want to do a canon chapter, you could also just search "how to paint [insert chapter here] on youtube. That could also be helpful for space marine techniques in general.

There's something weird about Tabletop minions. About a year ago e got basically no views, now suddenly he's getting a shit load, but during that time he didn't produce very many videos. Something weird is going on where he suddenly became popular and my only possible answer is he sucked a lot of dick at cons to get circle jerks going among popular people.

His videos are very basic, he doesn't really say anything interesting and he has no real talent.. so what gives?

>>54772094
Terranscape is /r9k/ autistic but his videos are enjoyable. He does some great work but at a very slow pace.

Any one got any recommendations for build videos? like 10+ video series where a guy builds the kit and does stage by stage updates as he goes. I've been considering picking up a go pro and recording similar things when I have my new work area set up. That or a pair or camera glasses and just flick them on and start shit talking every time progress is made on a project.

It's cancer. This is pretty much the only thread on /tg/ about working on minis and getting shit done. Everything else is playing pretend as a gay elf fighting a dragon. What do you think happens when you remove the "working on" part of this thread? It no longer has a reason to exist. It becomes "look what I bought", where people are praised for purchasing model kits rather than working on model kits.

If you let this shit go then you will end up with a slippery slope which turns into /soc/, but the cam whores hold a box of Space marines by their cheek as they take the selfies. Go take a look at the mini communities on Facebook or Tumblr some time, it's full of women doing exactly that. It's the Xbox controller licking of out hobby.

Say no to free attention for being a consumer. Say yes to hard work and nice miniatures being painted.

Working on babby's first conversion. Never used greenstuff before, so it's sloppy as hell work, but fortunately the Fire Warrior pauldron will cover the mess of a shoulder.

I'm turning the hover drone Ethereal into a Fireblade, if that wasn't obvious.

Still waiting on my next box of Fire Warriors so I can get a pulse rifle out of it and swap it for the carbine the model is currently holding. Just used that arm piece because I liked the pose. Oh, and I know it's way off center on the base. Originally had a little Tau standard thing on the same base, but I didn't like the look of it so I pulled it off. Gonna reposition the model once I'm finished sculpting.

>>54777880
Looks very much like a sorcerer, so that's good stuff. If that's night lords then a chain glaive force staff works for me.

>>54777888
Fair enough. I like the blood flowing into the tiles. Did you place at all in the competition?
Khorne and Nurgle approve.

>>54778014

Yea, it's night lords. If you look closely, I shaved down the feathers on the aquila for a makeshift winged skull.

>>54778033
The head is just tacked on at the moment. I have a fresh one I'm going to cut up when I go to paint. Hell, I need to straighten out the glaive and then I'll probably stick an old fashioned NL shoulder on for good measure. I just wanted an opinion first.

I like how yours turned out, which gives me hope. I was worried the foot pose would be weird.

I have got a farseer and a warlock council mounted on dark eldar hellions that I plan to use as a groovy looking (and budget) skyrunner farseer and council. Pic related.
I don't have any flying stands for the hellion skimmers tho, anyone know where I could get roughly the correct size flying stands for a reasonable price? Cheers

>>54778327
Just user a large thick paperclip.

Mount it in the hoverboard with a drilled hole. Put a hole in the base and bend it in an L shape under the base to glue it in place.
Paint it black and it will look good. Especially if you're willing to try a little OSL on the base from the Helluions hove / propulsion system.

Been doing some touch-ups after the Third Battle Company took a tumble out of the back of my car a few weeks ago. I reassembled nearly a hundred models in about three days. Trying to balance this with (intense) work, family, and clipping Primaris Reivers from theis sprues leaves little time for much else.

Looking to add some rough riders to my IG army but obviously I don't want horses.

Looking at scoot bikes for converting, I would make for cool recon biker troopers, despite the price (+100€ a squad).

-what could I use for some cool futuristic lances ?

There were *maybe* three models on the entire display that weren't chipped, disassembled, or both. The Emperor was watching over me, though - I recovered every bolt gun, shoulder pauldron, backpack, and combat knife. By the end of my search, all I was missing was a heavy bolter from the Imperial Bastion and poor Sergeant Vincent's head, which is magnetized and probably stuck to something metal that I will never find. His head came from the plastic Fifth Edition Death Company kit, which I have three or four of, so it will easy to replace. Right now, he's just walking around with an unpainted head.

Neutrals have their own place in color theory. Basically, they can either be considered warm or cool by the colors they're near because the human eye makes the neutrals take on a bit of the nearby hues. More or less, they do work with everything, but they may not always be the best choice for what you're doing. Look up color theory in your spare time, Wikipedia does a good job with the basics.

If you add some gloss varnish (test it on a bit of sprue with the martian inroncrust on it first) you could give the impression that the earth is sticking cause it's wet. The galaxy's a big place, it could happen, and I think it'd make your mini look better.

As for the paint job, look up John Blanche's works. Specifically his chaos and daemons paintings. That style will fit the conversion.

>>54781272
The paint on your highlights is way too thick. Id suggest that its also too bright a shade of highlight. Do a highlight in the shade below it, then use the brighter colour where the light would hit. Also you were more on the money with red eyes, people telling you green eyes gave you bad advice. Why? You are adding too many colours so you're going to end up with a marine resembling a christmas tree.

For reds, it works on the bolter and chest plate but its too jarring on the knees and shoulders.

I'd recommend if you want to keep the red, change your highlight colour to a blue rather than green.

If you want to keep the green highlight you need to ditch the red.

>>54782075
Thank you. I also wasn't convinced about the red eyes. I'll go with a blue highlight while keeping the red.

really the biggest thing is the amount of paint on the brush
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nVEHpedTct4 kujo is good with this. you want to have a very small amount of paint on the brush. approx 1:1 ratio of water to paint is a good place to start, and with a small amount of paint you can build up your layers in 2-3 thin coats. Now, not all paints are the same, so the consistency might differ between paints. Experiment with sprues and such.

You can mix black into your metal paint too if you want. Or just very lightly drybrush over black.

>>54784187
Legs are separate as is the head. Also the should pad on the left arm is separate

>>54784217
Look at the drill hand. I think the drills are Leadbelcher + Nuln Oil. I doubt adding more Nuln Oil will make it look like the hand and arms, but I could be wrong.

Pic related is literally just Leadbelcher and lots and lots of nuln, worked pretty well and you can then use Agrax to shade the actual recesses properly.
Takes a while of just layering it up slowly and going over spots it rubs off somewhat, but I can't see any reason it wouldn't work on other stuff too.
Currently using it on the Knight armour plates for a Malinax scheme. Thinking I might drybrush the edges black before the v. thin edge highlight just to make the trim more of a solid block and differentiate it from the skeleton a little though. Ideas to make sure it isn't a big boring blob with tan panels and then nothing but black?

>>54784469

So you just need ASSLOADS of nuln oil? I wonder how many buckets of wash you'd need if you used a bright silver like Stormhost instead of Leadbelcher lol

>>54784602
In that situation you'd be better off mixing it directly into the paint

>>54782854
Yep, the inner spike was just miscast. If I'd had a suitable 40k eviscerator lying around I'd have used that, but I didn't feel like ordering bits just for this. And I like the square blade from the Dreamforge set as an eviscerator proxy, unlike the other power sword bits in the assault box.

>>54784602
Assloads of nuln oil is a pretty accurate description, since the armour panels are on their fifth layer and are still slightly lighter than the skeleton. Think I'll swap over to agrax with possibly a little bit of Athonian Camoshade on the armour trim just to shift the colour a little bit further away.

It looks darker out of orange light, if it's right up close it looks like normal Leadbelcher but a bit grimy. For some reason it just cuts right through it.
The pistons I wound up doing on it ARE normal leadbelcher, whereas normally I'd use something like Runefang steel. Let me find a picture.

I was wondering if anyone has that raptor anon pictures + the paints he used, though it was like a month ago, but if that anon is still around, can you repost it?.

Here's the pistons. Also shows how it's more grey under different light. Just need to finish painting the rubber sheathing between the foot and the toes and then I can concentrate on the armour colour. Thank the Omnissiah for test Chimera, he who saves more expensive kits from the defective spray, the mismatched base layer and the horror of the Methylated Spirits. ;)

I have a basing question. I'm going to put rocks and dead tree limbs on my bases. Should I do that before or after spraying the minis with varnish? My main concern is the varnish will make it harder for the glue to bond these things to the bases. If it's relevant, I'm using agrellan earth texture with terminatus stone drybrushing on top of it.

Ayup lads, it's me again.
Today’s update! Thorne got a bit of a rework to streamline his look.
I gave the tentacled Genestealer head the chop and added some bits from a Kataphron Servitor head. Since he was lacking in long-range capabilities he’s now gotten a nifty-looking Phosphor Serpenta. I moved the helmet of the Sicarian Infiltrator princeps onto his side to make room for his new head.
I added a photo of the simple pin job I did to make sure that the fig was stable!
Drilled a hole through the vent and ran a pin through it, then drilled into the lowest thick part of the tattered robe. There I will seal the hole by adding a smaller servo-skull so it looks like it’s flowing out of the many mechadendrites.
The servo-skull from the Scions I added to his new partner in crime, Ketos Graum (bottom right) who is based off of a Necromancer. He got a Ruststalker head, and both a Stubcarbine and Flechette Blaster. I think I’ll keep him a bit more simple and striking in his design, just added a piece of an Ork Mek head to make his backside a bit more visually interesting.

>>54784876
Weekends, we get more lurkers (this thread is one of three always open when I get back from work)

>>54784854
After varnish, it will help seal some possibly loose particles in too.

Quick update, I think I've settled on a pose for my sorcerer. The lord will do for now, but I think I'm going to end up using a different set of legs to make it look like he's moving forward. Not sure yet.

Sup /WIP/, Dildo Blood Angel lieutenant kitbash guy from yesterday, I'm working on a Blood Angel Primaris Ancient next, can't decide if I want to paint the armour all gold like a sanguinary guard or keep it red with lots of gold bits.

Just finished off the basic construction of my Warshrine of Nurgle, which is based on a Skaven Screaming Bell. In my next session with it I'm going to start doing the actual conversion of it as I've yet only made some slight conversion to the bell. The banner on the side, just like the head on the "spawn" is atm only stuck on with blu-tack although I'm farily confident that I will keep 'em.
Tomorrow I will start working on the trophy rack that will cover its front and I will also plan out the placement of additional conquered banners. Any ideas/suggestions for themed inclusion on the trophy rack is highly welcome as I want each item to have some fluffy significance.

I appear to have somewhat stumped myself with this colour scheme, guys.

Athonian Camoshade or Agrax Earthshade to differentiate black metal armour trim from black metal Knight skeketon? Armour is going to be a light tan (pic related), so I'm not really sure whether green tint would clash or if brown tint would be boring.

>>54785995
It looks fine.

Hello fa/tg/uys and fa/tg/als,

I am having a hard time deciding on a colour scheme for my arbites army. I am tempted to with a base of castellan green and highlighted with loren forest or deathworld forest (that is the colour scheme of my IG army).... but I'm also tempted to go for a nice simple eshin grey base with some highlights of mechanicus standard.

Thoughts?

>>54777243

Hmmmmmm, maybe the squad leaders and officers will be getting judge dread colours. I feel like if I paint all of them that way it will be vomit-inducing.

>>54786356
I think bright golds, blues, reds, and yellows work best for a classic 2000AD feel. I guess I kinda get wanting to break the mold a bit with classic minis, but if you aren't a strong painter people will just wonder why you ruined a large gorgeous force of rare lead with a shitty OC scheme

>>54775430

When you paint white, do it in this order: Celestra grey -> Ulthuan grey, highlight with white scar. Your helms have no shadows or edges at all at the moment

Thank you anons; my internet went out last night shortly after I posted, so I didn't want you to think I was ungrateful.

I will definitely peruse Warhammer TV and this Duncan fellow. I bought a bunch of the recommended paints listed on the GW pages for Black Templars stuff; I imagine that was a bit of a poor decision and there's probably cheaper I could get elsewhere, but I figure it's at least definitely going to be the right stuff for the models, right?

>>54786315

It'd be better to just roll a smaller ball while it's not attached. Cutting a nice round circle without messing up your bag seems way more complicated than just pressing on a tiny tiny tiny ball and doesn't run the risk of cutting up the bag
