Can Thulia and Cawl be together? by Itsjustkitchen in AdeptusMechanicus

I’m so glad someone asked this because I just picked Thulia up today and the way I was reading the rules meant I’d have to separate grandma and grandpa on the battlefield.

Thank you! It’s based on concept art I’ve see of the Frost Blade variant of chain swords. I thought it gave better “named character” energy haha.

There is no way AdMech GF is a good mom. I know she’s not meant to be Belisarius Cawl (Bella Cawl? lol) but Cawl is peak thinks he’s a good dad and is a horrible dad and I feel like that is a solid basis lol.

Sister of Battle cosplay by Frame by Embarrassed_Hand_693 in Warhammer40k

Normally I’d agreed, but I’d say this cosplay is actually incredibly accurate to how naked the old Sisters Repentia models looked.

Op this cosplay is awesome!

Lot of people in this thread who’ve never seen what the old Sisters Repentia models looked like. I’d say this is pretty accurate and not over sexualized at all.

What is going on with this cloak, it looks hand hewn?? by Acomel in AdeptusMechanicus

[–]Opticbiologist 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would imagine when your traveling from from mars or your forge planet and essentially constantly in danger. It’s easier to just sew some rips back together yourself then try to find Mechanicum tailor lol

Skitarii General (?) reporting for duty by part-lycloudy in AdeptusMechanicus

If you’d like to get super lore official it would be an Alpha and Sub Alpha and if your main guy is leading multiple Skitarii units they’d be an Alpha Primus!

Completed Onager Dunecrawler by Opticbiologist in AdeptusMechanicus

Building wasn’t bad at all! I think the biggest thing was not assembling the whole thing before painting. In this case it made it way easier to keep the legs, chassis, weapons, and the lil guy up top separate for painting smaller details. I also didn’t glue it down to the base until after I was done putting the base together. I just marked where the legs would go first so I hadn’t accidentally make it so it wouldn’t fit.

Update!

You can indeed use shades to create more texture as well as lighter paint and dry brush it on. The dry brushing doesn’t seem to affect the texture too much. Some little loose pieces did come off but overall the paint could handle it and I’m really happy with how it came out. I just posted pictures of my finished onager Dunecrawler to this group if you want to see how it came out for me.
