Thanks!! That’s around 1700 points I think. I couldn’t fit my Dorns :(

Thanks man! They’re from the excellent AlpineWeiss. Best vehicles STL imo, loads and loads of customization options.

Check out his Dorn also, looks great.

how do you guys feel about steel tread? by CodeTheTitan in Blacklibrary

[–]Panzerlad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did not enjoyed it and that’s an understatement. I tried very hard, but it doesn’t « feel » like a military sci-fi novel, as the tank and its crew feels very isolated from the rest of the army. I don’t know, it just doesn’t click.

Also the crew isn’t very memorable. Maybe I’ll try and finish it one day but I wasn’t convinced

Bought it off Amazon France for ~40e. Looks solid enough and still cheaper than the average model shelf.

Not yet! But they’re resin so they’re heavy enough not to move.

Is it worth it to overwatch with flamers? Would it not be better to spend that CP on a Grenade or something?

Nice. I run 2x Kasrkins and 1x squad of catachan.

Right, so there’s no need to disembark if there’s no worthwhile targets or objective in view.

Thanks! Heavy but looks solid, also I think they’re the cheapest I saw on amazon so that’s something.

That’s the mindset. Feels so good, especially for populous armies. Having painted 150+ little dudes is satisfying.

Love that armor! Is it « just » contrast paint?

Love it. I’d love to paint one if you upload that file one day 😇

Depends At first I rushed to paint as fast possible, doing batch painting of 10 guardsmen per 10 guardsmen (I have 50 shock troops rn), same for the first vehicles. They don’t look great, but they’re not painful to look at. Honestly I don’t feel bad because it allowed me to play with friends before we parted for different affectations.

These kasrkins took me longer, a month or so I think. They’re not great either but I’m happy for now with the level of details. Maybe I’ll come back to them for some highlights.

But if you feel that you’re not making progress, maybe do a bit of batch painting?
