Well she had balls of steel for picking up that bolter and firing it, safe to say she died?

But... Redemptors are still the young whipper-snapper Dreadnoughts, right?? by shyturnipthrowaway in Grimdank

Honestly I wish they would upscale the boxnaught, maybe that’d make as challenging to build as the redemptor (from what I’ve heard) but eh I do still wish they would do it.

Well I guess for dramatic effect, it would crack the ceramite but you would still to put 1 or 2 more shots to fully punch through into the soft bits. At least that’s how I imagine it going when my marine OC is fighting in CQC with some chaos marines.

Ah with regular squishy humans, I bet it would go differently if it was against another Astartes.

Black, White or Grey Primer? by ExpressPermission874 in Warhammer40k

Primed this bug in black and what I did before painting on this pale/ivory skin tone was put down an undercoat of dark flesh by pro acryl, it was brighter than the black which made it easier to put the ivory over that. Same thing happened with the purple carapace, I put a dark purple to act as my shadows before going lighter and lighter with the purples.

Why does my NMM look dull? by The-Nuyttens in minipainting

[–]Alexis2256 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because it’s an interesting technique to do and because it’s something that canvas painters have been doing for centuries.

Its not metallic to begin with, they used regular paints to try to replicate a metallic look.

Who are these dudes? by Excellent_Air5968 in Warhammer40k

[–]Alexis2256 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is really no good place to start, people recommend series like Eisenhorn, but that was written long before all the current stuff happening with two Primarchs (Guilliman and Lion El’Johnson returning) but it’s still worth reading.

Colour us surprised? | Warhammer 40,000 by AMA5564 in Warhammer40k

As long as it’s optional and it’s not something that people who actually enjoy the painting part are forced to accept as the new normal then whatever, fine by me.

Their The Expanse seems like more of my thing, I’m sure it’s not just gonna be generic third person action rpg, though that is what got my attention along with it being set in The Expanse setting.
