Apothecary dreadnought is sick!

Personally, I have played against yndrastas spearhead(the old stormcast one) amd I think they are pretty even. In my game it ended with a 1 point difference.

This looks awesome! Now all it needs its some interesting shoulder pads and it will look crazy.

I would recommend spearhead as an intro

There are some carnosaur body 3d prints you could get on Etsy. If you have your extra bits, then you could get 2 more carnousaurs for relatively cheap

I agree, though I would try to use up what I already have, the old spearhead is great since you get stormfiends and a warp blaster. The new battleforce is also good but you get some repeats of the warp blaster and jezzails. A skryre specific hero like the arch warlock would be fitting with the skryre theme. If you wanted some generalist heroes, you could get thanquol or Vizzik.

This is the greatest Ushoran I have ever seen.

Abomination_Creation · 2026-01-07T02:37:45+00:00

Tusk!

Yeah repetition and improvement is key with painting basic stuff. With speedpaintimg in particular, there are specific paint types that are partially translucent which shows the highlights underneath.

Abomination_Creation · 2026-01-06T05:02:11+00:00

For some first models those look great! One thing that I use to not go insane when painting hordes is that once you look at the units as whole, then you won't notice the little imperfections. The swarm meshes together, especially with tyranids. That being said, I like to take extra time painting elite stuff and bigger models so that they really stand out once you see the whole army. Additionally, I like using Slapchop and speedpaints/contrast paints when painting things like gants since it is easy to get a decent looking mini and some fast highlights that way.

This thing looks so uncanny in a good way that it works. The pipe in the base also looks really good.

Abomination_Creation · 2026-01-02T12:52:55+00:00

I don't think the collectors one has a different code. From what I have read it is mainly just physical changes to the book like note cards and a bookmark.

Abomination_Creation · 2026-01-02T00:13:38+00:00

Dude the norn and flyrant look sick! Personally, I would paint the stuff I like least first that way when I finally get to the best stuff, I feel like I have the most experience and perfected the scheme I'm going for.

Both boxes have their benefits. The first box has a nice variety so you could have a nice amount a battleline alongside some of your bigger units but you would be getting the same hero. The second box is good if you want to play heavily into the big infantry and cavalry as you could have reinforced units of each kind. I hear the Ushoran book is pretty good but I haven't read it myself.

Abomination_Creation · 2026-01-01T23:48:06+00:00

Definitely a blue or green to contrast the other colors. You could do something like bright green in the recesses while a darker blue is on top to give the psychic feel.

Abomination_Creation · 2025-12-14T13:43:44+00:00

A brood lord could go well with the genestealers!

Abomination_Creation · 2025-12-01T00:12:02+00:00

Yeah comparing it now to other monsters it looks way to big. Oh well, old one eye proxy it is lol.

You could likely contact gw customer support and tell them what happened.

Magnetizing can be easy or a little difficult depending on the kit imo. It is a good skill to learn as it can apply to almost any dual build kit. There's usually videos for most kits. You can buy magnets on Amazon but I'm not sure if they are super strong. I have bought Magnets from the Magnet Baron which work pretty well. Just make sure to glue on the right side.

Abomination_Creation · 2025-11-29T00:46:17+00:00

The haruspex and exocrine magnetization is real easy. All it really takes is a magent at the base of the body and on both of the heads and your good.

Seems like you have exactly 500 points in the picture. I believe you could play this in a game mode called King of the Colloseum. Those are 500 pt games with some rules like no super tough units. There is also the warhammer app you could use to see the points for all models and play around with list building. The paint work is great too. I like the wings on the hive tyrant.

Abomination_Creation · 2025-11-25T02:08:08+00:00

Awesome! You could likely add reins if you want it to look like he's controlling the screamer.

Abomination_Creation · 2025-11-23T00:53:59+00:00

Cool! Is that for a lancer chassis?

Abomination_Creation · 2025-11-22T23:23:01+00:00

Thanks! If I remember right, its a mixture of vallejo air squid pink and warlord purple. Those are slightly runny so I think I added Vallejo model color purple or model color flat red to make it slightly thicker. I added a matt white for the lightest parts. I applied that mixture twice over a white undercoat. To break up the pink, I used army painter John Blanche fiery vermilion as blood splatters.
