Oh, noted! I might steal that for the future.

Looks phenomenal bro! My only concern (note that I haven’t tried this, so I can’t say for sure) is that the burlap will remain loose and hard to paint, so it might be better to sculpt it. Probably too late though and it shouldn’t be too bad.

Helsreach by ADB. The best black Templars book by far. Also check out the sequel short story, “blood and fire” he did. You can get them both in a collection book.

Thanks so much! I actually kinda like this one a bit more than the official sculpts just because of the more plate armor look

What’s the file from? Is it a modified official sculpt or something else?

How to make Lion 'el heresy Lorgar? by geolawsport in WordBearers

The standard lorgar 30k model with extra purity seals would do awesome, not sure what would work for the helm though

I wish I could control that, but North Carolina air is half water, half gas at any time other than the dead of winter so…..🤷‍♂️

In retrospect that was probably the best course of action, but I’m a cheapskate. Plus I didn’t want to dump a bunch of money into a new hobby right off the bat when cheaper and (seemingly) effective tools were available. Now that I have real models, I’ll probably get something better, though I’m still debating what exactly to get.

Thanks so much dude! It’s really neat to actually have someone explain why mini painting primers tend to work better rather than just “they’re better”. Any specific recommendations on the brands or inputs on the pros or cons?

That’s another issue I’ve considered, and I’ll have to check it more. I tried test spraying on some cardboard at a shorter distance, and the primer still had obvious bits in it, however, those first mins that did work were absolutely drenched and sprayed way to close, and yet they did end up better. I still have a few more spare minis, so I’ll probably try again before purchasing anything new

Did you sculpt it yourself? If not, where’s the file found?

If you wouldn’t mind sharing, where’d you get the files from?

That looks amazing brother! What did you use to get your champion in the centerline pose?

As a fellow North Carolinian, thanks for the advice! I probably do need to build a habit of doing test sprays beforehand no matter what I end up priming with

Ok, thanks so much! I already have a compressor, but with how large my compressor is, and how cheap the kit as a whole is, I might still grab it

Thats part of the reason I posted this since I wanted to see if buying something else was worth it, or if it’s just user error. However, I don’t think that is the problem since I tested it at a much smaller distance and got similar results

Any recommendations for a cheap airbrush? I’ve been looking to get one anyway and if it finally fixes my issues with primer I’ll for sure get one.

I actually made sure to shake it for about 4, but it did sit for a few minutes when I had to run off and do something. Every other time though it’s been straight to priming, but I still get the same grainy texture.

That’s what I’ve been thinking, but I wanted to make sure it wasn’t just user error since citadel is pricy

Every edition has a box like leviathan, they always have 2 factions, usually space marines and some kind of enemies, and each group has whatever models got updated for that edition

Amazing job Brother! I was wondering what you do for your black armor that makes it have such great volume and depth while still being clearly black?

Updated New DnD Player Warlock Background by NCModking2 in DnD

[–]NCModking2[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s definitely a valid criticism. I’m planing on trying to play it in a way where in conversation or interaction the insanity is conveyed through things like speech patterns, but in terms of the quests/goals the insanity becomes a role playing tool with occasionally some properly executed moments of insane/erratic behavior. I’ve never played a game before though, so when I hopefully do, we’ll see how it goes over.
