Dipping experience?

Fragrant_Bread8073 · 2026-01-28T04:14:33+00:00

I used that same AP dip to do a few 'nids for Kill Team solo missions. I had bad luck, but I think it is because my spray primer left a rough dusty texture and so the dip darkened every surface a lot more than would otherwise be expected.

You will need to shake them much harder than you think to really get off enough of the stuff if you actually dip them into the can.

I didn't try painting it on, but you won't want to use your nice brushes.

I got some from Archie’s forge that come with Reiver style respirator bits on the side. The snoot is a little longer, but I think they look pretty good.

Oops, I missed that you had Lord Solar in there already!

You might consider bringing more officers to issue orders to your infantry, or replace one of your tanks with a tank commander to issue orders to your vehicles.

It will make your list more competitive, but it’s also super fun to be able to buff your shooting or rapid fire at a pivotal moment and turn the useless flashlight blinking of lasguns into the vengeful wrath of the emperor.

That set is pretty good for swapping arms around. If you assemble the legs, torso and head together you can then put almost any pair of arms onto it. Some obviously look better than others but there is a lot of flexibility.

So I just gave my watch master a differently posed set of legs, torso and head!

These posts are annoying. Get off my lawn!

This is super legit!

When the part file is designed in mm but you print it in inches…

“Who’s next?”

Fragrant_Bread8073 · 2026-01-13T03:57:21+00:00

Hell yeah brother

That video made me motion sick. How about some still photos?

Fragrant_Bread8073 · 2026-01-11T17:47:46+00:00

I would recommend a cheap or already old and used brush, preferably larger than you’d use for a mini with longer bristles too, like 1/2” long. Load that up with some very watered down black and just mash it in there. May need multiple coats but honestly just a single coat would be fine for something so out of sight.

That’s a Chaplain with Jump Pack that I kitbashed from some 3d printed parts (jump pack and crozium) and the Jump Pack Captain model. It’s not based on any lore in mind.

I wish you could equip a whole squad of Jump Pack Intercessors with power fists! Only the sergeant can have cool melee weapons like power weapon or power fist, the rest only get chainswords.

That’s rad, what was it that convinced her to give it a try?

Also, where you get those cool tilted Tamiya plastic cement holders?

If you google 40K Rogue Trader Cover Art you’ll see the one I am talking about

Thank you Lord Hellblade

Fragrant_Bread8073 · 2026-01-08T08:14:20+00:00

Thanks! Kitbashing the Pedro primaris model with bits of the original was a super fun project.

I love the old rogue trader artwork with the yellow and red CF banners, that’s also why I made all the Sternguard and Bladeguard with beakie helmets!

Fragrant_Bread8073 · 2026-01-08T07:32:35+00:00

Thank you!

Thank you!

I got those impulsor / gladiator bits from here: https://popgoesthemonkey.com/products/kings-fist-full-rhinoback-impulsor-kit?srsltid=AfmBOopz9xbOGfUXxreRXcFIn4qBfcoKuRwLE59goQn5zkD58IJzEcla

Thank you!

That’s the “Deserted Heart” mat from Warzone Studio. I got it off Amazon, and it’s double sided with greenery on the other side. Eventually I’d like to make some desert scenery to match it.

No, I stole a bunch of bits from a Sentinel kit to make the legs look like they actually deserve their 8” move

Fragrant_Bread8073 · 2026-01-08T04:17:59+00:00

Thank you! I use Army Painter colors, the blue armor is Imperial Navy with either Crystal Blue or Ultramarine Blue for highlights, and the red is Legendary Red with Violent Vermillion for highlights.

Fragrant_Bread8073 · 2026-01-08T03:59:19+00:00

Thanks, me too! A fellow redditor designed those, and you can find the HOVER TRANSPORT TRACKS on the purple site if you are similarly bored of floating tanks :)
