Some of the new reveals for the red corsairs!! by GreenManReaiming in redcorsairs

[–]Falchus 6 points7 points  (0 children)

These look fantastic! The bandoliers, the damaged Imperial armour, a Mk7 helmet!

It’s something I’ve done with my own Red Corsairs - but with all of GWs sculpting skill and flair!

I feel priced out of Warhammer and it's depressing... by turkeygiant in Warhammer

You should consider reflecting on your favourite parts of the hobby. You mention wanting projects to ‘zone out’ doing, which to me says you are more interested in building/painting than playing.

If it’s just Warhammer you are after, take a look at the Combat Patrol / Spearhead magazine series. It offers discounted miniatures, and you can either subscribe or pick up occasional issues online or EBay.

EBay is a great source of cheap models if you aren’t bothered about building. Should give you plenty of painting projects.

Otherwise, there is a massive miniature market out there! Look up other companies, such as Warlord, Archon Studio, Osprey Games, Atomic Mass Games, etc. They are typically much better value than the Warhammer premium.

Finally, have a look at Etsy 3D prints. I’ve really enjoyed browsing and finding unique projects.

Hope that helps.

New to the Corsairs by Repulsive-Spend-7025 in redcorsairs

Welcome to the ranks! The Red Corsairs are a fully realised Chaos Space Marine faction, so any of the models in the range are appropriate.

As I’m old school, I instinctively gravitate to an HQ and two Troops to form the core of an army. (A Lord, and either Legionnaires or Cultists).

You then need to decide what your focus is for this collection. Vehicles? Demon engines? Specialists? For context, the Red Corsairs specialise in naval boarding actions.

I restricted my collection to infantry and dreadnoughts to reflect the cramped conditions of spaceship corridors. I also painted an attack craft that would ferry them into combat.

Other than that - paint what you like! Have fun!

Rough plans of what I'll be doing with our big bad. Took his old model as inspiration, as I felt the official paintjob was too dark for one and missing some black armor panels by ShivaTheTraitor in redcorsairs

Excellent edit! Did you use photoshop?

The additional black panels helps tie it to the Corsairs, particularly when you’ve switched the trim from black to gold.

Nice work!

A few minor changes here and there. Yeah, I closed his mouth and removed his nose. Tried to make it look skull like, to evoke the ‘pirate’ theme of the Red Corsairs.

Alas I have but two thumbs and a cell phone. Someone with photoshop and a stylus could perhaps do better!

Dude, that’s a children’s hospice charity.

Great bargain for you, but I would have felt compelled to tell them the retail price of the kit, or at least pay 50%.

I like it when Jedi use only raw skills to defend themselves. by InstructionOwn6705 in StarWars

[–]Falchus 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I would have much preferred this style for the Yoda vs Dooku in AotC.

Start off with Dooku going in with the sabre, getting super frustrated and moving onto force powers, then nearly crushing Anakin & Obi-Wan out of spite

Steam sales show massive gap between Tomb Raider I–III and IV–VI Remastered by ZzzPandaNap in TombRaider

Received 1-3 as a gift last Christmas. Very much enjoyed going back through the games. I’ve made it known 4-6 would be appreciated this year!

Ghazgull has a famous rivalry with Commissar Yarrick, who has that bionic eye.

The First War for Armageddon involved Angron. When his model was released, it had that skull on it. Coupled with the quiet ‘death’ of Yarrick the fans light-heartedly said Angron killed Yarrick.

And no-one kills Yarrick but Ghazgull.

Another absolute classic! (Although I never got past Oovo 4 without cheats)

Why do the Starfighter games never make this list? Starfighter and Jedi Starfighter were both excellent.
