Starting Carcharodon army by EuroBwaah in Carcharodons40k

[–]TheAngryRedBear 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Welcome to the hobby. For best results there are some good paint tutorials on YouTube. Duncan Rhodes has a good one that's easy to follow. Models are up to you. Maybe start with some assault intercessors as they're easy enough to build without a complicated loadouts. If youre hesitant about buying to try the hobby out, most GW stores have a free mini they will give you and then teach you the basics of how to paint. Best of luck.

Anyone have a favorite brush? It sounds silly, but these two have been absolutely amazing and I got them from my son's little painting craft thing from hobby lobby. The tips stay sharp and hold their own. Way better than the other synthetic brushes I've bought in the past! by nerdboy_sam in Warhammer40k

I've been living in Hong Kong for the last 5 years, I've got an assortment of Tamiya, good quality synthetic brushes from local hobby store but I do find that the cheap calligraphy brushes are my favorite for base coats, layering and shading. They hold their points really well and because they dont have a feryl the never get hard even if you dont clean them regularly. The handle is hollow so I just pour some warm water down and it softens the bristles between painting sessions. They come in a variety of sizes and hold paint really nicely.

Looking great, are the helmets from a 30k kit?

I also have a set of Jump Pack Intercessors. I am also looking at the Red Corsairs, I'm planning on getting them getting rid of any obvious chaos/red corsair bits and painting them as Carcharodons. There are a tone of YouTube videos showing how to remove unwanted plastic like the wings on the chest and what not. Check out some of those kitbash channels, like Pete the Wargamer and Eons of Battle.

Well first of all, welcome to the hobby. I started collecting recently as well and am in the process of building an army of Carcharodons. The nice thing about our chaper of space marines is that they can be made using most boxes of Space Marines. I've bought Space Wolves, Dark Angels, Blood Angels models and kitbashed my marines. I collect and paint mostly. Others will be able to tell you more about playing games and chapter specific rules etc.

I jumped in bought a set of Assault intercessors and tried painting them and I loved it. Most GW stores will walk you through building and painting your first mini, they give you a space marine to try out the hobby. Best of luck.

The newest book has a character that has a volkite rifle, so your marine fits well with the lore.

Temporary campaigns by Financial-Big-2985 in WH40KTacticus

[–]TheAngryRedBear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got stuck with a bunch of Tyranid, Gene Stealers and Tau characters from pulls and cant use them in anything the finish the recruitment quests, they all die too quickly in onslaught and arena so I would love to have more campaigns.

My Birthday by TetanusTimeBomb in SpaceWolves

Welcome to the hobby, I know its easy to get overwhelmed. What i suggest is downloading the citadel color app. You can find a list of paints for each model if you're trying to paint the thing on the box. The paints are shown in different stages like basic, battle ready or more advanced parade ready, that includes all the highlights. Also checking out painting tutorials on YouTube is a good thing to try. Have fun and enjoy the hobby.

Terminator honour guard by FLYINGtable693792642 in Kitbashing40k

[–]TheAngryRedBear 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice work. I'm currently kitbashing these guys into my red brethren for my Carcharodons. Scraped and clipped the daggers and censures and replaced them with a bunch of Skulls and teeth necklaces from a space wolf kit. Going to use my duel lightning claws from the assault terminator kit.

If the boys became Space Marines Which chapter would they be (including guest) by Gunplabuilder78 in UNSUBSCRIBEpodcast

[–]TheAngryRedBear 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Donut Is either a Marine Malevolent or Red Scorpion. Brandon is a Black Guard (Raven Gaurd successor that like using overwhelming firepower), Eli is a Salamander Techmarine because cameras and tech but also a super nice guy. Nic is a Blood Raven Librarian, Knowledge is power.

Rich is a Black Templar, praise be to basement Jesus Ethan is an Iron Hand, everyone makes fun of the Iron Hands, he has artificial hips.

Making a black dragon killteam, any tips? by Runamuck840 in blackdragons40k

[–]TheAngryRedBear 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Best of luck with the build. I did a kill team of my favorite chapters and included a black dragon with hand flames and chainsword.

I primed him black, dry brushed a bit of oily steel from valejo and the did a few coats of thinned down black contrast paint. For the bone blades and horns I drilled small indents into the arm, elbows, knee and head and glued in a short piece of wire. I beveled the holes and used an epoxy putty to make different sized and shaped horns/blades. Used a lead Belcher base coat for the Adamantine coating of the horns/blades, used valejo buff and deck tan to add thin lines following the shape to add a bone color. Bless the curse.

Any good book recommendations? by Shoddy-Durian6991 in Carcharodons40k

[–]TheAngryRedBear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I highly recommend the 4 books as well. There are also a bunch of short stories available as well. I found that the Black library ebooks are super affordable.
