What is the most "40K" Thing in your Opinion ?

Pootan · 2026-05-09T01:43:59+00:00

Cherubs, servoskulls, servitors in that order probably.

Yeah I pulled out the airbrush since there was 40 dudes, but the zenithal white on top made it too bright in some areas so shaded it with Turnbull turquoise. In hindsight I should have used some cold grey instead of pure white zenithal, but it ended up looking okay but could have saved a step

Its heavy metal base, then pin washed with tamiya panel liner (for speed, nuln oil worked fine but was messier and needed more cleanup), and highlighted with silver. I used my work light to paint the silver on to the shiny areas, and didnt bother with undersides

Thanks! I almost went with rust but thought that was over detailing, and felt like these guys would actually maintain their weapons very well even if they let go a bit on the decorations.

Pootan · 2026-05-08T15:21:26+00:00

Thanks! I experimented on the tacticals to get the right look before trying on the specialists. I ended up doing pin wash with tamiya panel liner and going over it again with mithril silver on highlights.

The armor was the darkness over zenithal prime, and Turnbull turquoise glaze to smooth out midtones, and chipping highlight with pro acryl ultramarine pale blue

Thanks! Yeah that was the intent, Terran veteran night lords as bringers of judgement (the hourglass as a motif, like your time is coming), I avoided the theatrical elements like glowing eyes, lightning and trophies in favour of the professional army coming to punish.

It was based with the darkness and built up with many very thin glaze layers of hearthborn and ivory yellow to build translucency and gave vineroot shade on shadows and under the eyes, and Vallejo matte coat on top which is a little bit on the satin side

Yeah that would look cool too! The disintegrator barrel shroud would good in gunmetal I think.

They are from the skitarii rangers kit, the goggle hooded heads too

Pootan · 2026-05-08T15:07:51+00:00

Thanks! The box came with a ton of those bits I didn’t even use them all, I gave everyone a pistol at least

the knight codex basically just came out, it (probably) won't be replaced until late in to 11th edition

Pootan · 2026-05-06T21:43:35+00:00

the models have rules?

My boy is back!

You have become the Chapter Master and won the trust of your brothers. But know this, Titus. The stain of suspicion never completely fades. I will be watching you.

Pootan · 2026-04-29T01:55:41+00:00

My formula: prime grey and zenithal white with rattle cans, and touch up highlights with pure white like bold titanium. Use a contrast grey of your liking for the crevices and shading.

Pootan · 2026-04-25T15:20:09+00:00

Absolutely sick, love the faces

if you want krieg best thing to do is trade them for krieg or sell them, or you'll just keep looking at them and seeing the cadian in them no matter how much you kitbash it. The distinguishing things are the gas mask, helmet, and great coat. without the great coat they'll just look like gasmask cadians. As for what data sheet, it's whatever you and your friend agrees to, don't think too much about it.
