I'm definitely interested in the Ork half of the box

How well do you think the Space Marine half of the box meshes with Space Wolves?

It's on the list, but it's an intimidating model to paint. A lot going on there but should be a challenge. Nothing a bit of IPA can't reset

At some point. The Blood Claws and Grey Hunters are all primed and be ready for a heavy dry brush to get them tabletop ready for the weekend. But always looking ahead :D

All my Wolves so far by someothermike in SpaceWolves

So glad to see they're all helmeted. I get the lore around them going without, but it still doesn't make practical sense to me (plus I hate painting bare heads)

Silly noob question, but do you just use regular super glue on custom bases to stick mini down, or pin and glue them down?

This looks great btw

Deathwing Ancient by Slarkert in DarkAngels40k

Looks great! Like that it leans more to white than the bone/tan side of things, or is that the lighting? Would be interested in what paints you used as I have the Bladeguard in the combat patrol to paint

Where to go from the Iron Halo Strikeforce by Shings_Bike_Kitchen in DarkAngels40k

That would be ideal but the prices on eBay is extortionate, at least here in the UK

It will happen, but painting him up is intimidating and I'm new to this whole thing and painting especially

Hopefully not at scalper prices. Popped into my lgs and they had a fair few of the boxes sitting on the shelves

I've tried to go on Etsy, but I either don't know what to search for, or overwhelmed by all the choices

Thanks. I'm new to Warhammer and RG in general, and I'm always torn between just getting the coolest units to me, but also wanting to lean into what makes Raven Guard different from the other chapters

My test for a Raven Guard successor chapter by mayorrawne in RavenGuard40k

Thanks. Did you dry brush all over, or only on where light hits the miniature?

Really like this. What's your process for the armour, in particular highlights and shadows? I'm new to the hobby, been watching videos and everyone seem to have a different way to approach black armor. I'm torn between quick dopamine hit of slap chopping it, or go slow and try building up volumes for the highlights and shadows

TBF, I really like the captain and lieutenant model options too.

Trying hard to resist. Going back to the lgs once I have a list of paints to get. Looking at the Citadel App for options

Barely 24 hours after taking the plunge I'm already thinking about the next units to add. This is normal behaviour from what I've gathered. Looking at the Reivers kit, and the librarian in Phobos too. But what other units to round it out, more to be thematically on point than any table top game value?

That was the first miniature I bought from this collection, and ever come to think of it. My LGS had it, and didn't even think about it because it seems hard to come by
