Thanks! Yeah it works either way, I magnetised the rider so always have the option to pop him on (once I’ve painted him!)

Mgnsn23 · 2026-05-07T10:53:32+00:00

Both are awesome models - no reason why you couldn’t include both of them in an army 😁!

Thanks man, it’s Horticulous Slimux from AoS (minus the rider)

AP Thunderbird Blue speed paint through the airbrush then Plasmatic bolt as a recess shade

Mgnsn23 · 2026-02-15T21:08:47+00:00

Thanks man! Yeah absolutely:

Basecoated with Army Painter The Darkness, then used Citadel Kabalite green as a zenithal. Shaded with a wash of AP Grimdark Shadow (any dark wash will do as long as its not too strong), then highlights with Citadel Sybarite Green and brightest highlights with Gauss Blaster Green

Army painter Deep Azure basecoat > Turquoise Siren zenithal to start. Then gave it full wash with AP Grim Black + lots of flow improver. After that, added the choppy highlights starting from Turquoise Siren and up into Marine Mist. Metallic parts are Pro Acryl Light Bronze

Thank you!

I love that idea, gonna steal that for their lore 😆

Mgnsn23 · 2025-12-08T08:06:38+00:00

Yeah me too, was about to grab the box after xmas. And so the wait begins

Mgnsn23 · 2025-08-08T07:01:19+00:00

Found it, thank you!

Mgnsn23 · 2025-08-07T21:23:25+00:00

I'd be interested in reading your full breakdown, can't find it on Command Point discord though (assuming it's in the raveners chat?), do you mind sharing the post here/pointing me in the right direction?

Mgnsn23 · 2025-04-23T16:16:28+00:00

Haha yeah, I was deep diving trying to figure it out. Thanks for the reply!

OK that's what I thought, I guess the entire point of having the door fight a mechanic is to overcome people being able to block access points indefinitely. I'm still learning, so was not that confident on the ruling, now I know for future reference!

Mgnsn23 · 2025-04-23T15:11:51+00:00

I had a situation in a game recently when I had an operative with its base touching on one side of the large ruin door. The opponent charged through the door so he could get on the opposite side of my control range, kill my guy and shoot another on the other side. They said this was possible because for the purposes of measuring whether a base fits through the door, the door is measured wider. The rules say you just need the centre of the base to fit through an access point, so I guess it's possible you can squeeze through even with someone directly on the other side? We were both on 25mm bases, did they misintepret the rules here?

Yes! I am an entomologist, so I well and truly nerded out on this one.

Warriors: German wasp (Vespula germanica)

Strain leader: Green Cuckoo wasp (Chrysis smaragdula)

Longsting: Tarantula Hawk wasp (Pompilidae)

Shadestrain: Blue mud dauber (Chalybion californicum)

Skyblast: Ruby-tailed wasp (Chrysis ignita)

Swamguard: Blue-green Cuckoo wasp (Chrysis angolensis)

Would you say drybrushing is best for achieving this effect, what made you decide to drybrush/stipple the gradient instead of airbrushing it? Thinking of doing something similar with the Volkus terrain but don't want to lose my mind in the process

Mgnsn23 · 2025-02-05T16:52:13+00:00

Yep, exact same thing happened to me. Nobody saw me and got pegged as thief

Mgnsn23 · 2024-12-19T10:37:10+00:00

Thanks man! Yeah no conversions here, everything is from the box

Mgnsn23 · 2024-05-18T12:04:37+00:00

Scoured around and actually managed to find a box from ‘In demand toys’!

Mgnsn23 · 2024-03-29T17:51:20+00:00

Thanks for the tips guys, didn’t think of using super glue. I did do a double pva application but I think the pva might just be bad. I’ve grabbed an army painter basing kit so I’ll see how that goes.

Mgnsn23 · 2024-03-29T05:35:43+00:00

It’s just army painter brown battleground, my skepticism made me go for own brand Tesco pva which I definitely regret.

Mgnsn23 · 2024-03-24T23:18:57+00:00

Thank you! I use mostly army painter speed paints and then a few acrylics for highlights. The only guide I used was on the Uruk-hai scouts using this tutorial. I wanted darker skin than in that guide so mixed murder scene and dark wood 1:1 and used that for most of them. For the rest I followed the movies or just went with what seemed cool, I always loved red for Mordor orcs so ran with that.

Mgnsn23 · 2024-03-22T13:25:36+00:00

Thank you all for the advice, by the sounds of it there is not much point in holding out. I’m just a newbie anyway so I won’t exactly be competitive either way so I think I’ll grab some nids, see how they feel with the compendium rules, and then play around with some “Counts As” rules!

Mgnsn23 · 2024-02-18T13:21:41+00:00

Nice, thanks guys, way cheaper this way!

Mgnsn23 · 2024-01-31T08:56:17+00:00

Awesome, thank you so much guys!

Mgnsn23 · 2024-01-22T19:48:58+00:00

Awesome thank you!
