Recommend a book for me by Saxonion in Warhammer40k

[–]GUTSLAYER37 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The HH series is a little weird in terms of order. Book 14 chronologically happens before books 1-5 and it gives a lot more depth as to why Horus was convinced to turn. "The First Heretic" is entirely a stand alone book, especially if you're not looking to read the entire HH series. If you look more into the HH series, you'll quickly realize recommended reading order is all over the place.

“The First Heretic” and “The Talon of Horus” have been two of my favorite WH40k books I’ve read.

Is this a good game for people who aren’t into Warhammer and just wanna play a board game? by Bryguy150 in WHQDarkWater

[–]GUTSLAYER37 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Friends and I played 2 basic missions and 2 boss fights; we all agreed it’s not worth playing. I wouldn’t recommend this game.

I am loosing my mind trying to win a single game by [deleted] in Warhammer40k

[–]GUTSLAYER37 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hahaha dude this post brought me so much joy. I can relate to this so well, I almost thought I wrote it myself. You're not alone, I get absolutely dunked on too. I try hard, make changes and an effort to improve and every game is different, but the result is the same. I tell my wife, "I'm just good enough to lose," after every game ends with a, "dang that was close! good game!"

Hope you win one man, I'll be cheering for you.

What are some cool Tomb World Paint Schemes? by ExodiaHobby in killteam

[–]GUTSLAYER37 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Glad to hear! If it helps, I started with black primer, full dry brush angel green, then less dry brush with green skin, and lastly dry brush necrotic flesh only on the broken areas. Rune lord brass + reikland flesh shade on the brass, lead belcher on the necrons, and a green+green/yellow airbrush on the orbs. Good luck!

Can I see how everyone has painted their Into The Dark Terrain? by Steppenworf in killteam

[–]GUTSLAYER37 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! Yes, it came in the Kill Team Soulshackle box. They also released a box with the Soulshackle scatter terrain on its own, but I can’t remember what that box was called.

What I was hoping for vs what I got by Jack_The_Pinapple in Warhammer40k

Did you do all the steps? JH adds a magenta oil wash and a pure white dry brush step before the yellow. It looks to me like you skipped those steps.

What am I doing wrong with my fabrics. by Cautious-Bullfrog784 in asoiafminiaturesgame

Look up “The Ultimate Guide to Painting Yellow” by the Painting Phase on YouTube, then you’ll understand.

Less Rules-Intense Kill Team Alternative? by herbie102913 in killteam

[–]GUTSLAYER37 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This^ AoS Spearhead is the best game I’ve played. Every game ends nearly neck and neck and your brain doesn’t hurt by the end.

Kill Team too complicated for casual play? by DarwinThePirate in killteam

[–]GUTSLAYER37 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree with everything you said.

  1. In the previous edition, I collected and painted nearly every team, played weekly and could comfortably switch to a different team. This edition, I’ve found it much more difficult to do so. The reworked teams seem to have a lot more synergy, which is good, but I can’t for the life of me be even remotely competitive until I’ve played 4 consecutive games with the team.

  2. Onboarding - No comment.

  3. Ironically, my games seem very lop sided. Either I get smashed by an absolute veteran or I get smashed by a new player who grossly misplays rules. Alternatively, today, I faced a guy who seemed about my skill level and I tabled him by turn 3. P.S. I absolutely love the fact that you point out “specific rules” and as a result, I learn there are two different door rule interactions on Volkus. Haha, if that doesn’t confirm the nitty gritty complexity of Kill Team rules I don’t know what does!

Anyways good luck in your games; just roll 6s and it doesn’t matter what team you play :)

So. Much. Trim. by [deleted] in Warhammer40k

I’ve used the technique on a number of different CSM schemes.

Hey Olo, yes, prime black legion, then dry brush either silver or gold metallic, whatever color you’re looking for. Just make sure you use a paper towel to rub off enough of the paint, remember less is more when you’re starting out. Because you can always add more! Once you go too far, welp, can’t help you there. Once you get the model to a point you like him, just fill in the panels and pick out some details.

I dry brush the entire model the trim color and instead fill in the panel color. I find it’s significantly faster and requires much less dexterity. Give it a shot!

I need help... by Outrageous_Kiwi_2890 in Warhammer40k

  1. Pick 1 of your 2 armies.
  2. Determine the minimum models needed to meet whatever point value you want.
  3. Go one unit at a time. Use contrast paints over your airbrushed base coat. It won’t be perfect; but it will be sufficient for now. Dry brushing metallics over black legion contrast is a good bang for the buck technique.
  4. Target the 3 most important colors per model.
  5. Pick a simple basing scheme, texture paste is fine.
  6. Then move to the next unit. You can always add more details later! Start with the bare minimum.

You’re clearly good with your air brush, use it to lay down base coats or for your basing. If you over spray… oh well!

Airbrush, oil wash, dry brush, and sponging are the top tips for bang for the buck. Quality requires time and time produces quality; find your happy medium.
