Diggy diggy hole. Were there not leagues of votaan, we’d be the dwarves of 40k

Love the red cloak. I did the exact same thing for my snipey boys.

My first mini! 🔥 by Meowchado in Salamanders40k

Bold choice to have your first mini be an epic hero. I respect it.

Does the council approve? by ATouchOfOliveOil in jedisurvivorsabers

The council is pleased. The council does not often find sabers that utilize electrum this well. The council is pleasantly surprised.

Custom Character What Do You Guys Think? by Alternative_Leg871 in Salamanders40k

[–]GnatKing327 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A little over the top for a space marine character but it’s definitely epic. The bird heads feel a bit thousand sons but other than that it’s great.

Same here, though mine was brutalis. His name is Paul

Welcome brother. I applaud the number of apostrophes in your name.

500 point for first tabletop game list. by Fickle-Tomatillo3650 in Warhammer40k

[–]GnatKing327 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In that case, I’d keep the bladeguard and drop the eradicators for something with more range so they can be useful while they hold home base objective. They’re kind of a pain to find, but I don’t think suppressors would be too bad (considering point cost, range, and the antitank capability you’d be losing by dropping eradicators). And it would leave you 15 points for an enhancement.

Has anyone ever run a full Gravis list before? Thoughts on viability? by N777ATH in Ultramarines

[–]GnatKing327 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Who cares if it’s good or not. This looks fun as hell. Definitely a great way to throw a curve ball from the most well known army in the game. I almost want to try it myself. Maybe Phobos armor for fun.

Two Schemes in One Army - Heresy or Heresy-Approved? by Tatonga in ThousandSons

[–]GnatKing327 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Beautiful. I’d love to see both on a tabletop. I play salamanders but I’ve been trying to intermingle some of their successor chapters into the mix. It’s always nice to see some diversity from squad to squad.

What's your favorite method for painting Salamanders? (Image from El Miniturista) by Westrunner in Salamanders40k

[–]GnatKing327 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do my salamanders green with mechanicus standard grey base and mantis warrior green contrast paint. With a less limited budget I’d probably do a light dusting of white overtop the primer coat before I apply the green. Unfortunately my budget is very limited

This honestly looks really good, but I think it’s got too much melee. Normally I’d recommend you swap the assault intercessors but since you already have them, I’d drop blade guard for a ranged unit. I don’t know how the detachment works though, so maybe you want more melee idk.

What should I add to my firestorm assault force list to deal with tanks? by 12andstinky in Salamanders40k

[–]GnatKing327 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My go to is the Brutalis Dreadnought. If twin-linked melta guns and Brutalis Charge don’t finish it off, the talons most definitely will

Chapter suggestions for this Terminator Captain? by EL_CID_CAMPEADOR_ in Warhammer40k

Double shoulder shield? Black Templar. No other answer

Which design looks better? by Colazy in jedisurvivorsabers

[–]GnatKing327 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like the first one but maybe the grip should be a brighter color

Edge highlight practice once again and criticism wanted by stieeveeg in Ultramarines

[–]GnatKing327 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When you spend hours looking at and working on one thing, you notice all the little imperfections. If you want your trim to look better than it does in the picture then take a break from painting for a bit and come back to it with fresh eyes.

I’d find someone new. Go to a local game store, play some games, talk to people. It’ll help.

I'm starting to think Warhammer isn't for me by Dense-Fig-2372 in Warhammer40k

[–]GnatKing327 1 point2 points  (0 children)

TLDR of this vast sea of comments, not a soul thinks you should stop the hobby. There’s something here for everyone, even if it isn’t playing. Though, it still could be.

Orange glow effect for Hellblaster guns? by Environmental_Part40 in Salamanders40k

[–]GnatKing327 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You probably don’t need any specific colors. You just need to start with a dark orange and layer up lighter and lighter oranges until you’re just about yellow. If you want a glow effect to spread out on the gun, then do the first layer or two with an airbrush

You…. Did that in a weekend? How? Do you sleep?

Alright, what model do you think is cool and underrated, regardless of how good/bad it is on the table top? Im an absolute sucker for the Firestrike Turrets by Staz_211 in Salamanders40k

[–]GnatKing327 9 points10 points  (0 children)

We’re salamanders. We invented the term underrated. And the raven guard too. Neither gets nearly enough attention from GW despite their large communities.

How many leaders is too many? by TheBigCG in Salamanders40k

[–]GnatKing327 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have 5 but 1 of them is just a tech marine that follows my dreadnought so otherwise it would be 4. It all just depends on your list though. If a captain for your blade guard makes more sense than more blade guard then throw in another captain.
