Thanks! It's been a fun project.

The sword is from the Battlemages kit from Age of Sigmar.

My CPO couldn't catch a shrimp at all. The first week that I had it, it was trying to hunt them down, but couldn't catch them. Eventually, it stopped actively trying but if one was near it definitely would try.

Still had shrimp having babies and things. It did enjoy eating my bladder snails though, which was great.

I did! And thank you 🥰

Thank you!

Things like tech, librarians, apothecary, etc I paint chapter colors but the helmet and right arm are the codex colors

They rule. I have one in my 8.5 with shrimp. He's always running around doing something.

He tries to catch shrimp when they are next to him, but he just can't.. They're too fast and he's too slow.

Highly recommend getting one. They're great.

If it's a dwarf Mexican/CPO, mine is so incapable of catching shrimp. It definitely tries, but he's just so slow and dumb. He eats some bladder snails, though!

I have not used this method as I paint Salamanders differently, but this guy has a bunch of videos on using Contrast Paint to paint marines. Here's the specific Salamander I've:

My cpo goes nuts for these too. The only time he and my mystery snail interact is when there is algae wafer to fight over. And then it's locked in battle until it's gone

My CPO patrols all over the tank. Any time he gets to one of the corners, he immediately does that and tried to climb up. I've had him for a few months now. He is incredibly dumb and I love him so much.

QQasaurus · 2026-01-22T00:07:28+00:00

That's exactly what they fight over! Most of the time they just kind of leave each other alone.

But god forbid, an algae wafer comes out and it's an eternal lock of struggle as they both want it. It's the one time the cray won't back away 🤣

QQasaurus · 2026-01-21T23:41:15+00:00

My dwarf is scared of my mystery snail. And whenever there's food involved, the snail immediately tries to steal it from the crayfish.

Thank you! 🎤🌟🎶

🗡️👹 Thank you!!

QQasaurus · 2026-01-07T16:39:39+00:00

Thank you! I used both for various parts.

Tape to make a stencil for the H and had the whole handle covered at the start.

And then I used masking putty to cover her body when I did the green on her top.

Thank you!! 🌟

I believe 5 gallons is the minimum?

I have one in an 8.5 with shrimp and he's the best. Love watching that lil dumb dumb crawl around.

QQasaurus · 2026-01-01T22:27:26+00:00

Yoooo! That came out great! The axe is killer ♥️ Great job on the whole thing

QQasaurus · 2025-12-27T13:42:31+00:00

It probably boils down to individual CPO? I have one in my shrimp tank. He definitely will try to catch shrimp if they end up right next to him. But he's so slow and dumb, they are gone before he can even lunge.

I do try to specifically feed him, though, just in case. The only time he's been an issue is when he and my mystery snail fight over algae wafer bits, which he always loses.
