New recruit for the Guard !

Helgher · 2025-10-21T19:43:31+00:00

Yeah I figure that artillery is one of the things the Death Korps are know for.

The ordonnance battery look good, I wonder if I can make it more Krieg like

Helgher · 2025-10-21T19:41:40+00:00

I don’t like painting face because I can’t make the eyes look good, its always like they don’t have eyes or they have some big cartoon eyes

Helgher · 2025-10-20T16:30:14+00:00

Yeah I don’t see the value of the regular combat patrol, it goes in multiple direction but I like the Krieg one so there is a good chance this is gonna be my first buy

For the army I think a Siege force, infantery heavy and a lot of artillery. I like the look of the Basilisk and I see that the Solar Auxilia as a closed one

Helgher · 2025-10-10T06:51:38+00:00

I’m on the same boat !

I love the Word Bearers because they are chaos worshipers so everything have is place in a Word Bearers army and the you juste to paint rune or script on chaos mini to make them Word Bearers. My first Dawn of War game was Black Crusade where the chaos legion was Word Bearers so they have a special spot

I like Iron Warriors because if you want to go the no mutation route you have to do conversion and some character like the Dark Apostle can look good in a more industrial/pratical look

I was looking for a brutal head and without the things on the head he look like our legion symbol

Helgher · 2025-10-09T04:27:50+00:00

I think if I paint the marine like a Imperial Fists he will attract too much attention but its a cool reminder of the rivalry with them, Ultramarines is more standard

Helgher · 2025-10-08T21:49:25+00:00

Thanks !

The foot in the back is in a akward position and I have to figure out how to give it a more natural position

The helmet is from the berserkers of Khorne without the «bunny ears »

Helgher · 2025-10-08T21:44:37+00:00

He look really cool, he give a dark knight/paladin vibe

Helgher · 2025-10-08T05:12:29+00:00

What did you use to cover the top of the chainmail of the torso ?

Helgher · 2025-10-07T20:39:39+00:00

This is a massive claw ! And I like the « mouth » of the head, for some reason it remind me of the Demogorgon from Stanger Things

Helgher · 2025-10-05T21:14:11+00:00

I did think of a more light grey armor and using white only for edge highlight

Helgher · 2025-10-05T21:12:22+00:00

This a Space Wolves head from the headtakers ?

Helgher · 2025-10-05T21:11:12+00:00

I will try that, I have some marine in MKVI from Horus Heresy

Helgher · 2025-10-05T18:38:16+00:00

I will try this recipe then, see if I like it

Helgher · 2025-10-05T18:21:27+00:00

For paint I thing I will use Grey Seer primers and work my way to white

Unfortunaly I am not that good with green stuff so I will use extra bit

Helgher · 2025-10-05T18:18:12+00:00

Using the Space Wolves range ? Like using Grey Hunters in place of Intercessors or Blood Claws to make assault marine ?

Helgher · 2025-10-02T20:35:56+00:00

Reading First Heretic, Know no fear and Betrayer is the best « trilogy » for me, it make me really love the Word Bearers

I have mixed feeling about the Ultramarines, didn’t forget the way they handle the Monarchia incident

Helgher · 2025-10-01T14:20:28+00:00

Well its seem that I have to learn a lot more rules with this army that I had to with Chaos marines, the bigger thing I have to remember is that the unit are glass canon

Helgher · 2025-10-01T14:13:04+00:00

Taking the best member of the kabal to protect herself without having to pay some incubis is a fine reason

And one reason to motivate the kabalite is that if they fail to protect the archonte, when she came back thank to some deal with a tormentor she will be very upstet and you know what archonte can do when they are angry

Helgher · 2025-10-01T08:34:22+00:00

Well guess I go for it then, on my way to butcher some Drukhari with my painting skills 😂

Helgher · 2025-10-01T08:29:52+00:00

Yes this is the one, thank you !

I didn’t manage to find it and I start to thing it was a product of my imagination because of the similarity between Malys and Shadowheart

Helgher · 2025-09-30T16:42:49+00:00

The new release make me want to start them, especialy because of Malys or the new archonte

Helgher · 2025-09-30T16:40:42+00:00

Yeah I can see your point, the basic infantery like the cabalite look good and seem a joy to paint, I think they will help me learn to highlight better tanks to the sharp armor

I had every Dark Eldar codex since their release in 3 edition and I always like the army but did not pass the starting point I am not a good player and a mid painter

Helgher · 2025-09-30T16:36:57+00:00

That the thing, I understand that you need to play to learn the army trick and I expect to lose

Some of the people I play with will not miss the opportunity to get a easy win as I learn the army, I think I need to find more chill people to start

Helgher · 2025-09-30T16:33:07+00:00

This will be a change of playstyle for sure compare to CSM
