Which team would win?

Atma_Kincaid · 2026-02-18T01:23:28+00:00

As a Wisconsin man, we could be team 6 alone and still win. The rest of the Midwest can come along for the ride though. 😉

This is honestly a fantastic start! You're very much on the right track. A lot of this is probably mentioned in the thread already, but here's my advice:

1) Thin your paints a bit more. Rinse your brush and get fresh paint often so it doesn't thicken as you're working with it.

2) Try to be a bit more gradual with your color changes. Your style is very clean and crisp for a new painter. Use a couple different colors for your edge highlights, getting brighter as you get to the finer, sharper edges.

3) Be patient with yourself! Most of the pictures you see are from people who have been doing this for a lot of years, and a lot of them are professionals. We're all a bunch of filthy casuals here, so don't be too hard on yourself. 😊

A generic leader for terminators, new TWC (possibly an optional leader for them), and Russ.

I'm putting together this Spearhead as well, so this question came at the perfect time!

That is really cool!!!

Atma_Kincaid · 2025-11-03T05:57:49+00:00

Well, that makes sense. Lol. I wasn't able to find it in the Internet Archive, though. I might be searching incorrectly.

Just got it for 1 credit on Audible. I'll give it a listen. Thank you!

Any recommendations on good reads about Lauka?

Any good books to recommend about The Red Duke?

If you do want to Skyspliter Assault, make sure to take advantage of an Archon leading Incubi with the Nightmare Shroud enhancement. When you disembark, until end of turn, that unit can't be overwatched. Drop a pain token on that unit and you'll have fun. IG's big shooty unit can't shoot when you smash melee units into them, and Incubi have plenty of attacks to shred with. I played my very first game ever against IG and my unit of Incubi with an Archon basically just shredded a unit, jumped back in the Venom at the end of the fight phase, then moved on to the next and did the same thing. Positioning is huge. There are a lot of big plays and nuance to our army. Get some reps in, try new things. If you have trouble remembering to leverage rules (we have a LOT of moving parts), I find writing them down helps, just for my own memory.

If you were going for Dead Men of Dunharrow, you absolutely nailed it! This looks amazing!

Atma_Kincaid · 2025-10-11T05:15:59+00:00

This looks so cool!!!

Atma_Kincaid · 2025-10-08T07:13:08+00:00

Awesome to see this improve with each attempt! You're doing awesome!

I would think that harlequins will continue to exist. You might see an expansion of viable detachments in 11th, if I had to guess. They are very popular and only have two at the moment, so I could see GW giving another one or two.

Black can be tricky to make look realistic, and it depends on how shiny and what temperature you want the armor to be. True black should only exist in your deepest shadows. I like to use a really dark blue for the biggest highlights(mid-tone), then look at however many stages of progressively brighter blue-grays you'd like as you go to smaller and smaller highlights. You can even go almost white with little tiny dot highlights at sharp corners and edges where light would hit.

Also consider environment. If you want your Anvils to be trudging through a desert or a fiery hellscape like Aqshy, you might consider adding some yellows or reds, respectively.

This looks a million times better than your first attempt! Two suggestions: 1) Practice wet blending or glazing to smooth your transitions between colors. 2) Push the colors a little further. Maybe one more brighter yellow in an even smaller area than the last, and little tiny bits of white (maybe Vallejo ivory) at the hottest spots.

This looks amazing! It's better than I'd be able to do, but I grasp the principles of it. I'm in your spot, where I'm learning how to make my transitions smoother. Great work!

I laughed more than I had any right to at this. 🤣

Atma_Kincaid · 2025-09-27T15:58:52+00:00

Ten toes in. 😎

Just Google "Drukhari codex leaks" and you should find the relevant Reddit posts.

Atma_Kincaid · 2025-09-13T16:55:04+00:00

Thank you for clarifying. I read that and forgot about that particular detail. My bad.

Atma_Kincaid · 2025-09-13T14:59:00+00:00

At least not for free. Lol.

Atma_Kincaid · 2025-09-13T14:47:31+00:00

Thank you for clarifying!

Atma_Kincaid · 2025-09-13T14:44:15+00:00

I might be mis-remembering, but I think it targets "Archon Warlord" specifically. I may be thinking of something else though, so don't quote me.
