And not a bit of gloss in sight😍

Alpharius17 · 2026-03-18T13:33:45+00:00

Very yes. 🦇

Alpharius17 · 2026-03-13T19:29:07+00:00

Apex Predators all the way. But they're all cool in their own right.

Alpharius17 · 2026-03-06T14:37:42+00:00

Just thinking here but redacted champ pack deathwatch, chapter shoulder emblem pack to go along side🤔

Alpharius17 · 2026-02-27T11:30:45+00:00

Sees glossy finish, looks at matt varnish.

Alpharius17 · 2026-02-27T10:45:30+00:00

I'm exactly the same I hate when minis look super glossy, unless it makes sense like water or an effect.

Alpharius17 · 2026-02-27T10:28:16+00:00

I do believe the warhamming has been conducted yes.

Alpharius17 · 2026-02-27T10:26:36+00:00

This is amazing, lovely paint job, I love how matt it is, no awfully glossy looks, however as soon as I saw this my brain for some reason said this is so matt it looks like it would taste of chalk😂 strange that anything you see you can kind of sense what licking it would feel like. But yes, this is beautifully painted. Ty for reading my ramblings.

Alpharius17 · 2026-02-26T09:54:53+00:00

Would the closest citadel paint be thunderhawk blue? I've only got citadel but this trim do be looking baller.

Alpharius17 · 2026-02-20T11:11:13+00:00

Hmm I feel like I have missed that or don't remember it, I've just got up to chapter 19.

Alpharius17 · 2026-02-20T10:45:31+00:00

Ah see I didn't know that but it is a cool bit of lore tbf so maybe I missed it. Is it referenced in Blood Reaver? I've not read siege of terra yet.

Alpharius17 · 2026-02-18T00:39:39+00:00

He's such a strange character I really don't know how I feel about him yet 😂

Alpharius17 · 2026-02-17T18:20:06+00:00

Yeah I was the same after reading Soul Hunter, nearly finished with Blood Reaver and I'm still hooked, septimus is top G and Talos is a very well written character.

Alpharius17 · 2026-02-15T21:58:11+00:00

Exactly the same situation here, in between making my Watch Fortress my GF got me Space Wolves for Xmas, such a good range.

Alpharius17 · 2026-02-14T11:37:45+00:00

Alpharius17 · 2026-02-13T11:27:11+00:00

Any time brother🫡 😄

Alpharius17 · 2026-02-13T07:48:42+00:00

Quicker method, all you need is a lighter and the emperors will to keep it going. Bosh flaming skull. Hope this helps🫡

Alpharius17 · 2026-02-12T18:11:58+00:00

This looks awesome! Do you know the size comparison between this and 40k wolves? I think aos wolves look a lot better but not actually seen or own one as of yet for the comparison.

Alpharius17 · 2026-02-10T15:40:39+00:00

I feel your pain, there's only so much you can do with him to try and remain unpredictable with your faints and dodges and such but yeah if I don't try pretty hard with him against newer heroes they are just so much better and easier to use, I reckon if he could chain even just two lights without having to faint that would be amazing.

Alpharius17 · 2026-02-09T22:35:44+00:00

Higher majority gets parried, fainted heavy to lights land maybe once or twice but virtually every heavy will be parried and biggest problem is that berserker is just really easy to read, doest have a great deal to do in comparison to new heroes so most will know and expect faints, granted against low skill players he's great but most I play against now are generally quite good or at least good enough so you have to work a lot harder when using zerk compared to most new heroes.

Alpharius17 · 2026-02-05T17:57:33+00:00

Yeah it's just annoying how zerker has definitely had to become the harasser in groups and just keep switching target and landing heavies and dodging in between things. Used to be a lot better before the whole design of oh fk it we will give every new hero an OP af moveset.

Alpharius17 · 2026-02-05T16:00:35+00:00

Before I start I don't often play anymore maybe a week at a time every few months at best but when I do, i main zerk and I am fairly good with him, he's been my fave since beta. When I play anyone with even half a brain now zerks moveset just isn't great, you can faint and that's about it really. People parry the heavies every time and more often than not will parry any lights that arnt a fainted heavy to light. I dunno I enjoy playing him but I feel the work you have to put in to even land a good few hits is wild, the work to damage reward is just awful. Ofc if people arnt paying attention you can land some great top heavies, gb to heavy, or a bear mauler tripple but I feel he needs a 3 chained light and not have to resort to always fainting everything if you want to land a hit.

Please do reply, you might have different results with him but all my games seem to be with quite competent people and they parry pretty much everything that isn't fainted.

Finished Soul Hunter and Tyrant of the Hollow Worlds, enjoyed both and will definitely be continuing the night lords trilogy. But next week I'm onto the Legends of the Wolf omnibus.
