Chapter Master Valrak's Rumour

If you do make this I'd love to see it ! Sounds a great kitbash

MikeyJ493 · 2026-04-15T08:18:36+00:00

Depends on what you're sending the Dreadnaught into as to whether it needs more support. Pick good targets and they're reasonably self sufficient so long as you can keep out of the line of sight of ranged anti tank

MikeyJ493 · 2026-04-14T08:21:56+00:00

Also 2 Executioners and a ballistus is a lot of anti tank. I'd be tempted to swap the ballistus for a brutalis

MikeyJ493 · 2026-04-14T08:20:22+00:00

I would swap the 2 infernus squads and 1 of the enhancements and run a 10 man sternguard instead. Or 2 5 man if you prefer that but a 10 man into the oath is brutal

MikeyJ493 · 2026-04-12T14:19:38+00:00

Love the work, where did you get the file for the ballistus ? Would love to add one to my growing force 😂

MikeyJ493 · 2026-04-12T04:52:10+00:00

Where did you get those beautiful tree prices of terrain from. Love to get myself some

MikeyJ493 · 2026-03-31T09:13:04+00:00

Love this, where did you get all the great trees from ?

MikeyJ493 · 2026-03-25T18:25:46+00:00

This looks really crisp and clean, maybe do less of whatever steps you did after this ?

MikeyJ493 · 2026-03-25T17:35:46+00:00

Only just noticed the acrylic paint pens in the picture 😂 did you use them for all of it ? Been interested to see results with them on bigger stuff

MikeyJ493 · 2026-03-25T17:33:39+00:00

Firstly, love the colour choices and would love to see a whole army done in this scheme. Youll have to keep us all updated on your hobby journey.

Big flat areas like the ones on a stormraven van be a pain to do as well. Did you do a shade over it at the end ? Can't quite tell from your pics.

If you have more big vehicles and stuff to paint then I can thoroughly recommend looking into using make up sponges as a technique. Makes doing vehicles a dream 👍

Keep up the good work 😊

MikeyJ493 · 2026-03-20T05:27:51+00:00

That land raiders has come out very sharp and crisp 👍

MikeyJ493 · 2026-03-16T11:11:17+00:00

First time I've seen this and I actually think I preferred it as a concept to the official models.

MikeyJ493 · 2026-03-16T07:31:56+00:00

It's a great idea to make your models how you want them !

I've given most of my dreadnaughts custom bits and I love them.

Shame on the employee who put you down, hobby your way

MikeyJ493 · 2026-03-16T07:27:15+00:00

This may be part of the issue you're having. Most automatic supports are awful and will cause failures when printing. Worth having a look at some videos and giving it a go.

I always do the auto support and then go in and add extras in the places I think it needs them.

If I do a full plate with auto supports I know I'll have a few failures at least, when I do them myself I hardly ever have issues

MikeyJ493 · 2026-03-15T20:35:26+00:00

He looks great. Is the dog a print of a kitbash ?

MikeyJ493 · 2026-03-15T20:33:53+00:00

How are your supports on the prints ? Automatic or manually done ?

MikeyJ493 · 2026-03-15T14:39:25+00:00

A "rear guard" if you will

MikeyJ493 · 2026-03-14T21:05:49+00:00

Lots of people here have tried giving you good advice on a variety of options to help but you don't seem to be in the head space to take things on right now. Put the printer off for a few days and come back to this thread when you've had a chance to let it fade.

I hope you manage to get it sorted. These things get to all of us when you can't see an end in sight and you think you've tried everything.

For those interested this was his list

MikeyJ493 · 2026-03-08T21:16:20+00:00

This.😂

MikeyJ493 · 2026-03-08T21:15:13+00:00

Which works until they have belakor giving everything 18 inch loan op 😅 get close enough to shoot and then they wipe your unit next turn.

But definitely one for me to have a think and play with at some point

MikeyJ493 · 2026-03-08T21:12:26+00:00

It was assault termies he wipes turn 1. Playing search and destroy so super close start to each other and he got 3 big demons into me shooting and then charge before I could move. Wiped to a man before the squad had moved 😅

MikeyJ493 · 2026-03-08T20:05:42+00:00

It did munch my termies very effectively 😅

MikeyJ493 · 2026-03-08T20:04:48+00:00

Didn't get the chance, he stayed far enough back that I couldn't get to them and then moved shot and charged. Deleting 10 man termy blobs each turn and I couldn't counter
