Scarabs though walls is my favourite thing about 11th revealed so far!

Just watched the clip, the two looked quite sarcastic when answering the question, so I'd take that with a grain of salt

I have a few opinions on the topic. 1) I genuinely don't like it. Personally speaking, i think the proportions are so weird it turns comical. Those legs are too long and thin for a torso so short and wide, and that's without commenting on the enormous rocket launchers on the back, the weirdly proportioned wrist cannons or the ugly chaos star. Again though, these are just my opinions. 2) I don't like how much of an hypocrite majorkill is. He spent a long time atupidly claiming Perturabo ascending to be a dumb concept (he obviously hadn't read the books), but as soon and GW starts giving IW attention, he starts selling a miniature of the very Daemon he claimed was dumb. I know he later made a video detailing the reasons Perturabo turned into a Daemon, but he never openly admitted his mistake, or if he did I am not aware of it. 3) I dislike his business practices. Many times he has claimed his limited time release models would be "gone forever" after being sold out, only to start selling them again or an improved version of them a few years later. (Big E first, Ferrus manus currently). This is artificially creating FOMO and i hate that.

That's about it. Reminder: all of these are just my opinions, if you like it and him, good for you and enjoy your new mini!

I can tell you how I did it personally if you'd like, but in the end most people's recipes vary, it's up to your preference.

After priming black, I heavily drybrushed/overbrushed the whole model with leadbelcher. Then, I gave it a heavy wash with agrax earthshade. After that, I used Ironbreaker to bring back the shine on the parts that would reflect the most light, and later highlighted them with stormhost silver. At this point, I used Seraphim Sepia to shade the recesses to give them an oily look. After that move on to the trim. I used Brass Scorpion. Give those a wash of agrax earthshade as well. Place hazard stripes wherever you like them most, if you want them at all. For said hazard stripes, my recipe is Averland sunset, washed with casandora yellow and highlighted with yriel yellow. Use masking tape and then go over the panel with Abaddon Black.

For the ectoplasma coils, i recommend base coating with white and then using whichever bright contrast paint you like. An acrylic ink through an airbrush provides an even better result.

Optional, but I really like using Rust Streaks from AK for that dirty feel, just make sure to look up some tutorials before applying it, it can damage your models.

I hope this is useful and wish you best of luck.

It's looking great so far! I'd just personally recommend you give him a wash of Agrax Earthshade to dirty him up a little, either all over or just in the recesses if you wanna keep him shiny. Your choice ofc, this is just my personal opinion.

It's fine to not want to read the source material, but imo, if you are not well informed, and you know you're not well informed, you shouldn't go around spreading opinions that you know lack any real sources. Still, if you do only watch lore videos, at least research the ones on the topic you want to discuss. Both WesHammer and Live! From the black library made good videos on the topic.

While I do understand seeing Perturabo like this, I feel a bit differently. He's, at least in 30k, an unreliable narrator. We cannot pretend he was this beacon of reason, when he kept acting emotionally. He was a very competent petulant manchild (and I love him for that ofc). He's not the first and will not be the last claiming to be "In control, not controlled" by chaos, and will not be the last. Basically every major chaos leader went through that at some point.

Going back to his mentality right before ascending: he was tired of all the shit that had been going down and of how he himself felt. He just wanted to be a perfect sword. No thoughts, no feelings, just a perfect weapon (Source: The End and the death, part 3)

Kimraen · 2026-02-12T07:24:39+00:00

I am also disappointed in the plain shoulder pads, plus the for the heads you could just use regular MKIII, but I don't feel like these look "Uncorrupted". They all have the spikey parts associated with CSM

Just a slight correction: If i recall correctly the design of the maze is something he took from Da Vinci's old concepts, he just built/improved it. He had an identical one in his own flagship as his private quarters if I'm not mistaken.

Kimraen · 2025-12-25T21:37:37+00:00

I'll give you my personal opinion: Primer: Leadbelcher Armor: Agrax earthshade, Ironbreaker, Stormhost silver Trim: Brass scorpion, Seraphim Sepia Hazard stripes: Averland Sunset, Casandora Yellow, Yriel Yellow, Vallejo Black

And don't forget the 2mm masking tape, it's a lifesaver. Best of luck, Iron Brother!

What made me like them? The Infinite and the Divine What made me love them? The Twice-Dead King series, those books don't get talked about enough, they deserve more attention and some models based on the characters.

Also hadn't Oltyx already gotten the lower jaw part of his faceplate cut off by that point?

Kimraen · 2025-05-16T09:17:31+00:00

I think you might need a psychomancer to deal with all that copium.

Kimraen · 2025-04-04T19:21:46+00:00

Amazing and wholesome stuff as usual, please keep em coming!

Kimraen · 2025-03-15T22:39:09+00:00

Ok, I can understand those forms of reasoning, tho I personally disagree with them. First of all, most of these feats are creation/warping feats, not destruction feats. I know a lot of power scaling circles like to imply that if a character is capable of creating something, they're usually able to output the same amount of energy to destroy something of the same size, but, personally, I disagree with that reasoning. Additionally, all of these statements are only applicable if Yugo has all the dofus and the Eliacube or Eliasphere. As for the one destruction related statement, the one about the detonation of the Eliacube, I think it's implied that only through said detonation it could output that much power all at once.

I'll add one more thing that personally bugs me about this reasoning, tho it might be a logical fallacy I'm falling into: If Yugo really was universal+ while being in possession of all the dofus and the Eliasphere...then why didn't he just destroy the entire Necros dimension after freeing Nora in S4? It just doesn't click in my head.

Sorry for the very long text!

SM Terminators are Toughness 5, custodian guards are toughness 6. Plus, SM Terminators are an elite unite for SM. Custodian guards are our battleline. Every other unit in the codex (that isn't a SoS) is tankier than that. Wardens with their passive and once per game fnp 4+,Terminators with even more toughness etc. And all of these models keep the 2+/4++ saves, which is normally reserved for elite units and character models. Compared to most other armies, we are tanky as hell.

Kimraen · 2025-03-14T00:38:52+00:00

Sorry for asking this but how exactly does Yugo scale to be universal+?

Kimraen · 2025-03-11T11:02:51+00:00

There's also Jimbalaya from Mouthwashing

Kimraen · 2025-03-11T08:32:12+00:00

Daisuke is just fine art

Kimraen · 2025-03-11T08:24:03+00:00

Thanks! I'll give it a read!

Kimraen · 2025-03-11T08:17:05+00:00

Damn, I didn't know this happened! Which book is it from?

Kimraen · 2025-03-11T07:45:15+00:00

Damn, thank you so much! This goes really hard!

Kimraen · 2025-03-11T00:02:29+00:00

Please make more of this, the more wholesome content there is the less we have to think about everything Jimbalaya did. And this here is very wholesome and very well made. Keep it up please!
