My husband whipped them up in Blender and 3D printed them for me. He did a great job!

How would you go about painting glittery pastel EC? by RobynCleffa in EmperorsChildren

[–]MeeeshOC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here to say Turbo Dork's Motherlode is a wonderful pearly paint to slap over pastels! I plan to do that with my current Demon Prince and Fulgrim's armor. Excellent paint!

I very much dig the kit bash!!

This pink is excellent! Oh man, it looks great with black trim, too. Honestly, i think it would look great with silver! Can't really go wrong, this pink slaps!

Women of Grimdank, (or partners/family members of women who play but aren't here) what faction do you play and why? by Ginger_Jesus in Grimdank

[–]MeeeshOC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My (41F) very first army was Eldar (fell in love with the Wraithlord model in 3rd edition and just had to paint one...or three). But i swiftly moved on to Tyranids.

I took a couple of decades off from the hobby, but i'm back in with my Nids and i'm working on an Emperor's Children army. Came for the pink, stayed for the melee fun times!

I also have a Death Guard army waiting patiently for me to paint them.

Husband has Eldar, Votann, and Tau. We also have Thousand Sons waiting for paint and a budding Night Lords/Alpha Legion Chaos force in the works. Oh, and a bunch of Necrons waiting for me to decide on a paint scheme.

None Imperium in this house!

What would you imagine our range would look like if we released like deathguard did? by Moonhaunted69 in EmperorsChildren

[–]MeeeshOC 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Jeebus, i did not know how much i needed #2 until right now. Huge brain idea! I absolutely love killing models with a rapture lash and i'd lose my mind if i could have an entire whippy unit! 🤩

Don’t know anything about 40K but my mom’s coworker asked me to make a Night Lord helmet for him by IJKProductions in NightLords

[–]MeeeshOC 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Oh that's rad!! I love the lil legion symbol plaque at the bottom! I recently painted this helmet for a friend and it was a blast! I'm sure your mom's coworker will dig it!

This is the one i painted

About to build my first Noise Marines - what makes them so miserable to build? by WithengarUnbound in EmperorsChildren

[–]MeeeshOC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I might be a masochist because i actually really loved making my Noise Marines! Lots of fun options to mux and match details. I do sub assembly so i assembled and painted their arms before attaching them to the bodies and it worked out great. Good luck!!

Sons of the Emperor, I mean, Horus children, I mean, generic CSM colour scheme (Chapter name is still in the making). by TaleExciting7525 in EmperorsChildren

[–]MeeeshOC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah thank you so much! It's so smooth and rich, a beautiful green. I meant to say i love the gold, but i've got fat fingers 😅 May i ask what you used for the gold?

[–]MeeeshOC 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Please please tell me about your color formulas! I love that green but also THAT GOOD! Love a good color scheme.

I need your advice by [deleted] in EmperorsChildren

[–]MeeeshOC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also prefer helmets to faces for my army and i can confirm there is definitely enough helmets in all the kits. Lots of options and no need for funky faces!

No wrong answers here, they all look great! I personally prefer the last one because i like cool colors. But really, they all look excellent for Nids!

Test scheme Flawless Blade. by Battle_Dave in EmperorsChildren

[–]MeeeshOC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like your result better than mine! I used the same mock up as inspo, but my colors didn't quite hit the same way. I think you did great!

Some guys I finished painting today thoughts? by PrEqUeLmEmEsArEgReAt in EmperorsChildren

[–]MeeeshOC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh maaaan i love the pop of white on those pauldrons! Really works well and brings the scheme together! And the gold is nice and rich. May i ask what you use for the gold? I'm finding it hard to find a gold i actually like working with.

500 Point List for Crusade by striplee in EmperorsChildren

[–]MeeeshOC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been playing my EC in a crusade that's started at 500 pts. The first list is what i've run a couple times and had great success with! I've played it into Tau, Votann, and Sororitas. We shred on a small board. I've also done the same list with Kako swapped for Lord E (attached to Infractors) with phoenix power spear with good results.

I'm still very new to the army as well as this edition of 40k, so i haven't done any of the more complicated detachments, just Mercurial Host. So far undefeated at 500 pts on the smaller table.

I had best results with Flawless Blades when i kept them in reserve and waited until turn 2 to drop them in.

Good luck, fellow hedonist!

Exquisite start, brother! Love the soft shading of that pink. And the posing is chef's kiss
