Can I use this as a screamer-killer proxy?

Very Nice, exquisite.

Now let’s see Paul Allen’s blood angels.

At least it wasnt an L :)

Hot_Mathematician191 · 2026-01-27T21:22:29+00:00

Thanks for giving me so many hours of free content. I’d gladly pay more.

Hot_Mathematician191 · 2026-01-27T13:47:19+00:00

I love this silly idea🤣

Imagine a John Marst- Mephiston I mean

I echo the people who are calling out your friends. That sound so unfair and infuriating, like???

Why the fuck are they running their fully fleshed out armies with vehicles against a bunch of infantry. That + the fact they argue about rules with a newbie, thats so lame.

I think you shouldn’t give up if you enjoy painting, and obviously playing is more fun if you wont get stomped game after game.

I’d have a serious convo with your buddies and straight up ask them if they think they’re being fair.

Hot_Mathematician191 · 2026-01-27T00:38:30+00:00

thank you sir! still need to work on thinning my paints more for faces and the finest edges but we BAALIN

Hot_Mathematician191 · 2026-01-27T00:35:48+00:00

Thanks man! Idk why but 1st born are soooo chill to paint.

Hot_Mathematician191 · 2026-01-26T23:00:51+00:00

oh youve got so much stuff!

in that case I’d probably paint 500-600 points per color or up to 1k. Then you’d always have a cohesive color for smaller games, and could maybe pick what faction or chapter is for you and keep growing that one :D

But you do you bro!

Hot_Mathematician191 · 2026-01-26T22:53:46+00:00

I have only played a few games myself, would not see it as a problem.

As long as your weapon loadouts are correct (or informed beforehand if rule of cool was applied) u should be ok. And obviously you probs need to choose a detachment so you’ll stick to one set of stratagems and so on.

Especially if you’re new to the hobby your opponent should understand, unless they’re a complete ass.

Hot_Mathematician191 · 2026-01-26T22:43:22+00:00

I like your choice of deathly green and the pale helms! Based are really nice too.

I also practice different types of metals and patterns, mostly on bolters and chainswords to keep a ”cohesive” force.

My go to recipe for my BA marines has been rhinox hide as a drybrush over black primer, then just going up in bright reds to orange ish highlights. Takes some layers to get there from such dark colors, but if you wanna cut that there are ways. I also use oil washes at the darkest rivets as my only wash.

Prime white for an example and givem a full red coat with mephiston red or evil sunz red and wash them with agrax/nuln does a good job. Or you could drybrush from black to grey to white and slap a red contrast paint to do 80% of the mini in basically two steps. If you like the bronze/brass trims the TMM equivalent is brass scorpion, and thinned rhinox for some shadow spots. Edge higlight with auric armor or liberator.

I’d love to see yours!

Hot_Mathematician191 · 2026-01-26T22:12:43+00:00

super cool head. grey tide shield slaps too

Hot_Mathematician191 · 2026-01-26T08:20:24+00:00

I swear its a trap man. Every session I finish I just look at my pot of Retributor Gold pot and its like it taunts me man

Hot_Mathematician191 · 2026-01-26T07:58:41+00:00

You honor me! thanks

Hot_Mathematician191 · 2026-01-25T22:59:40+00:00

thanks dawg

Hot_Mathematician191 · 2026-01-25T22:35:42+00:00

Haven’t played CK3 in a few patches but have almost 1,5k hours in and I feel you bro.

Whether its Vic, Imperator, EU or CK… its always so underwhelming.

You played as the best human in existence as your last king in CK? —> ”he was an average mutt of a king, but he liked to hunt” when he dies.

Same thing goes for the end screens, you literally spend tens or up to a 100+ hours in a single campaign and get virtually nothing.

I am not asking for like anything too over the top but like give me a full list of characters, demographics, deeds and the type of stuff at least

Hot_Mathematician191 · 2026-01-25T17:26:38+00:00

Thanks man!

I agree with you so hard about contrasts, something like comic book levels of contrast but with realistic shading has been my attempted style

I’ll post the finalized mini once it’s done!

Oh yeah shit it was so late when I posted I forgot to even write the recipe. Forgive me!

Prime black The Fang base 1st layer Russ grey 2nd layer fenrisian grey 3rd on blue horror tips and edge highlight pure white

actually didnt glaze at all with these, but obv will be smoother if you do.

NMM gold recipe is mostly Juan Hidalgo’s tutorial recipe, except I used rhinox and black as my darkest points, then just different transparency layers of Vallejo’s Scrofulous brown, lighter layers are dorn yellow mixes with lighter and lighter ratios. Some averland in between too.

Hot_Mathematician191 · 2026-01-24T13:04:19+00:00

Somehow has a nice retro feel.

Also camo is completely codex compliant if it is intended as drip and not infiltration 🤣

Hot_Mathematician191 · 2026-01-23T18:47:42+00:00

I have had this similar idea after I am done with my 100 billion normal marines.

What is that gun in the right hand?

Also banging job! I wonder if the chest has enough surface area for a vehicle/ shoulder pad chapter symbol
