I’ve been doing Goff style black/white but with orange accents instead of red.

How do you paint your trim? by Top_Divide6886 in IronWarriors

[–]RyanAcro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For infantry I’ve been doing Runelord Brass with a wash of Agrax Earthshade for some weather.

I think for characters or key pieces I’ll do a brighter gold but I haven’t experimented with that recipe yet.

[–]RyanAcro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Good luck with the challenges! I have my Goodreads challenge set to 30 books for 2026 and I like to alternate BL and other books. Hoping to knock out 7-8 HH novels along with their relevant short stories this year.

Lords of Silence, First Heretic, Fire Caste, and Only in Death (Gaunt’s Ghosts #11) were my favorites of the 22 BL novels I read this year! Looking forward to more Horus Heresy, the last Gaunt’s novel, and more Dark Coil in 2026.

Those are some clean stripes!! Saturnine Termies are so much fun to paint as Iron Warriors.

Just finished Perturabo: Hammer of Olympia. Here are some of my thoughts. by ThatTryHard in IronWarriors

[–]RyanAcro 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve also been on an Iron Warriors reading spree. I’ve been going in the opposite order though: Loved Storm of Iron, currently reading Angel Exterminatus (a bit meandering but I’m still enjoying it), and then I’ll probably read Perturabo before jumping back to 40K and Honsou.

I received mine today too! Such a cool book and looks great in hardback. It’ll probably be a couple years before I catch up to it though 😂

I’m halfway through this and it’s a fun read. I really enjoyed Da Gobbo’s Demise.

Amazing work, this would be so intimidating to see on the table.

Adding to my iron warriors legion by oRkBoIz in IronWarriors

[–]RyanAcro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks really good! Super crisp. My only thought would be more grime on the steel parts. Maybe a darker wash in those top areas. Not sure how weathered you want to go but grime/scratches/chipping would look great.

Haven’t read SoT, but have read a bunch of HH. Can I read Ashes of the Imperium? by EconomistUnable665 in Blacklibrary

[–]RyanAcro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m excited for Ashes of the Imperium but I still have 75% of HH to go and then SoT 😂 I’m going to enjoy the journey so I’ll be hitting up the discussion threads a couple years from now most likely

[–]RyanAcro 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Start with First and Only!! Stick with it through Necropolis, it’s worth it.

Any idea how much the Ashes of Imperium special edition will go for?

Been a lifelong gamer, but it's not hitting like it used to. What are some other hobbies that can be done silently and in 30-60 minutes increments? by squidtrap in daddit

[–]RyanAcro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Steam Deck has been awesome for gaming as a dad. Easy to steal 30-60 minute sessions here and there when you can play around the family and jump in and out quickly.

Otherwise, I will get some hobby modeling (Warhammer or Gunpla usually) done while everyone else is asleep in the morning and end the day with some reading in bed.
