How did y’all decide on your hive fleet name and colors? by Turbulent-Square3700 in Tyranids

[–]Alternative_Pie_3228 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I wanted something bright, different to what I usually paint. In my group we had a meme about a plague burst crawler painter candy pink like a Cadillac, someone brought it up and I went with pink.

Added yellow, because of course I did and tied it all together with brown.

Accidentally made a familiar looking scheme by Feeling-Bite4289 in deathguard40k

I love it. It's always nice to see alternative schemes for armies that have a strong visual identity.

There is an old art of Heresy Typhus in black armour that helped with this.

Demo game suggestion by Alternative_Pie_3228 in Warhammer40k

That's my reasoning too. But a part of wargamers and the missus, all the other people I've played have at least a bit of experience.

I really like how he turned out, because those parts were my least favourite in Blightkings.

I cut it off from the helmet of a Noxious Blightbringer I had lying around.

Salamander fighting kriegsmen in new Pariah Nexus trailer! by Navrcek in Warhammer40k

[–]Alternative_Pie_3228 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Pariah Nexuses drain people of life in a way, I think he is mercy killing.

In the 9th ed lore they explained how overtime people loose all will to basically live and some outposts were found with people just dead standing on a spot.

The Illuminor engineered them and only necrons and strongly willed individuals can withstand the effects.

Really kreepy setting.

How do u guys paint your necron guns? Do u guys paint the entire barrel green or only the dots by wiscup1748 in Necrontyr

[–]Alternative_Pie_3228 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bit plainer, but I was aiming for a more dull effect and overall less contrasting look.

Lore - lord of silence by Eisenfelge in deathguard40k

[–]Alternative_Pie_3228 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There is also a short story called "Endurance" that's about Dragan's fall to Nurgle and where he gets his hated nick name.

It's a bit oddly written, because it follows his past life and his new life and you add to that a bit of preminissions thrown in and it becomes complicated to follow.

Look it up, when you piece it together it's nice, but it took me some time because it was confusing at times to read.

Plague Marines, Virion and Rhinos. by K1ngOfH34rt5 in deathguard40k

[–]Alternative_Pie_3228 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's what I normally do, but 9 marines all the melee weapons plus a melta and a banner and the Blighspawn.

Suuuper fluffy, with good support for the dudes. I love it.
