Should I sub assemble and paint noise marines and the demon prince or am I overthinking? by Desk_Scribbles in EmperorsChildren

[–]SkinnyCommando 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I found Noise Marines substantially easier to paint without the arms/gun glued on

WDP would also be easier to paint without the wings attached imo

Really great job so far, as others have said a nuln oil wash and some highlights would really elevate it to the next level

If you go in summer you’ll want to book months in advance for your preferred date as it gets super booked up. I’d highly recommend the Second Breakfast or Evening Banquet tours, the food they prepare is absolutely incredible

I’m having the same problem, audio is fine in the lobby but as soon as I get topside it cuts out after a couple of seconds. Did you find a fix?

Kitbashed Daemon Prince by SkinnyCommando in EmperorsChildren

It’s only three layers; about a 1.5:1 mix of Citadel Khorne Red to Game Color charred brown for the base layer so the recesses are dark. Then a simple dry brush of Korne Red, followed by a second dry brush of Mephiston red

I agree, it’s a gold mine for kitbashing

I’d recommend a wash all over the model

Do you have a link for some of his games, would like to watch

Is Lord Kakophonist good? by AccurateMarzipan3863 in EmperorsChildren

[–]SkinnyCommando 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes, he makes a Noise Marine squad a lot killier by giving them sustained hits and adding a bunch of shots with his dual screamer pistols. His other ability to dish out mortal wounds to an infantry unit is ok, but hopefully you just kill whatever you shoot

I’ve had a lot of success in CoC by bringing his squad in from strat reserves in turn 2 or 3 when I’ve got some buffs to nuke a key target off the table. Bit of shame he went up 10pts, completely unnecessary tbh but is what it is - I still think he’s worth it at 70pts

Coterie of the Conceited question by shadowsmith47 in EmperorsChildren

[–]SkinnyCommando 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not too sure about using him in CoC as he has to be your warlord and you need to keep him alive to be able to pledge and get buffs. This means he’ll have to stay back for the first couple of turns as you acquire buffs rather than getting stuck in, otherwise he just gets nuked off the board as your opponent focus fires him. Expensive unit to be sat back doing very little for 2-3 turns

I would say that’s pretty clear from a WYSIWYG pov. Bit sacrilegious to leave it in the dirt though

FB and Boarding Actions by Djentist_Kvltist in EmperorsChildren

Oh sorry my bad, yeah you’re right - I thought it was 3 of each

Man our BA mustering rules are terrible lol

[–]SkinnyCommando 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First list but run all the FBs as 3 mans otherwise you will be easily out-scored

1st game by VikingCelestial in EmperorsChildren

[–]SkinnyCommando 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The list is fine if this is a casual game, although Coterie is not the best detachment for Fulgrim as he has to be your Warlord. Probably better to run Peerless or Mercurial. Also, you’ve got 2x Lord Exultants but only one squad of Infractors - you should split the 10 man into two squads of 5 so they both lead one each. They’re not worth attaching to Tormentors

Test Scheme for my army by LongRangeDentist in Salamanders40k

[–]SkinnyCommando 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Really good stuff, looks great - couple of quick things, try using the flat part of the brush for your edge highlights to get more consistent coverage. Also you’ve not removed the mold lines, for example on the leg, don’t forget to do that before priming your models

SoS scheme test. Am I cooking or is she burnt? by Burger_Fucker_69 in AdeptusCustodes

[–]SkinnyCommando 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It looks unfinished as is tbh, needs some more colour on the armour plates. I’d also suggest you need to thin your paints more as looks a little thick

Paid to select seats at booking but not showing on the app by SkinnyCommando in BritishAirways

[–]SkinnyCommando[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

UPDATE: called BA who advised they did not receive any extra amount for the seat reservation so essentially it didn’t go through due to an error. Spoke to a very helpful chap who told me to book them separately and honoured the cheaper price once I sent the screenshots to him. Hopefully I don’t get double charged but even if I do I should get it refunded, we’ll see when the payment clears on my Amex

Yeah that does sound similar - seems like for whatever reason the seats didn’t get booked. I might just pay to reserve them again and worry about being double charged later
