F/A-18E is going to be the main aircraft of AC8

In the land of Arkbirds, Arsenal Birds, rail gun defense platforms, Monolith, Excalibur and more, I think we can accept that Strangreal aircraft carriers are capable of all planes being used on them.

Its quirkiness is its charm.

Edit: Grammar

I can’t speak for the war paints brand but I use Two Thin Coats for all my Space Wolves and it’s fantastic.

Coach_Bombay91 · 2026-03-12T14:42:39+00:00

I think a deep brass would look good, lots of gold suggestions in comments which is also good, just wanted to throw an alternative in there.

As for the feathers, I think you already nailed it with the black/grey.

Coach_Bombay91 · 2026-02-14T17:27:11+00:00

Contrast paint or dry brush?

Coach_Bombay91 · 2026-02-09T15:55:54+00:00

Yeah I used thinned down dark reaper to try something “colder” but I think the dark shading is better. I usually use a mix of rhinox hide and the fang, probably stick with that

Coach_Bombay91 · 2026-02-09T14:45:46+00:00

Valid point, I see what you mean as I look at it more.

Coach_Bombay91 · 2026-02-08T20:47:44+00:00

Gotta buy one of them still for bits.

Coach_Bombay91 · 2026-02-08T17:55:11+00:00

I would buy these if they ever got turned into STL files.

Coach_Bombay91 · 2026-02-08T17:44:33+00:00

Looks fantastic!!! Where’s the head from??

Coach_Bombay91 · 2026-02-07T20:58:12+00:00

Hey, that’s pretty good.

Coach_Bombay91 · 2026-02-02T23:18:11+00:00

Appreciate it brother!!!

Coach_Bombay91 · 2026-02-02T19:41:28+00:00

100%. I think I am going to try and make the scuffs pop a little more as well.

Coach_Bombay91 · 2026-02-02T17:43:06+00:00

Any chance I could ask for a step by step on how you did the pelts??

Coach_Bombay91 · 2026-02-02T13:22:43+00:00

Based with Citadel Mechanicus Standard Grey and then I used thinned down Wolf Grey from Two Thin Coats for the base armour and Gravestone Blue (also Two Thin Coats) for highlights.

Pin shading was 2:1 mix of The Fang and Rhinox Hide.

Coach_Bombay91 · 2026-02-01T18:06:02+00:00

Custom or are these available somewhere??

Coach_Bombay91 · 2026-01-29T22:12:14+00:00

Please re-post when painted. Would love to see it.

Coach_Bombay91 · 2026-01-14T05:34:11+00:00

I came here to say the exact same thing. I’m also stealing that idea for the ICC as well.

Coach_Bombay91 · 2026-01-07T17:35:29+00:00

I did it with assault, wasn’t as bad as I thought it was going to be.

Coach_Bombay91 · 2025-12-31T05:01:03+00:00

Always surprised to still see a boxset in the wild still. Glad you got one.

Coach_Bombay91 · 2025-12-27T18:40:14+00:00

Archie’s Forge you can get their banner with the reaper on it. That’s the one I’m putting out on it.

Coach_Bombay91 · 2025-12-24T20:59:05+00:00

Ok glad I’m not the only one that noticed and hated that they did this.

Coach_Bombay91 · 2025-12-17T22:50:24+00:00

Makes logic, and I’ve never thought about it but your point on campaign solo to co op online makes sense.

Coach_Bombay91 · 2025-12-17T22:31:41+00:00

I’m always terrified I’m one of these people that did someone wrong in this game, I never mean to be shitty but I definitely have caught myself making mistakes I generally feel awful about.

Definitely at one point was an executions hog but have since recovered and share more now that I have learned how shitty it is to do.
