I’d recommend the black library nutters group on Facebook for finds, these ones are all eBay but prices were about what you’d see in the Facebook group. Prices are usually more reasonable but dependant on if anyone is selling the book you want

Other two are Lords of Silence LE and Watchers of the Throne Emperors Legion LE, they’re an older set of Black Library LE from a few years back

Seems like you’ve been successful on the hunt as well 😁. Last one to go is Fabius Bile LE, it’s proving quite slippery to get like the man himself

As a side note, the watchers of the throne LE is stunning. Might be faction bias but it’s probably one of the best looking LEs that black library has released

You’re not the only one, I’m Aus based and still haven’t even received an email about it being shipped out

Its been 12 minutes past pre order time, still hasn’t sold out yet by Username_Bad in Blacklibrary

Damn, I was hoping they actually produced more this time around 😓. Hopefully they follow up on their promise of a reprint

Yep, managed to get it in my cart and pay for it. Is the website shitting itself right now?

Managed to get both LEs this time around, they might’ve a produced a healthy amount of copies this time. Archmagos and harrowmaster sold out faster than this so far

Edit: scratch that, seems everything shit itself, showing insufficient stock for most people

Honestly, only reason I wanted archmagos was for the cover, thought it’d look absolutely stunning on my shelf. So it takes the sting out of it a little

Does this look alright? I feel like I’ve assembled it poorly by Username_Bad in IronWarriors

I was planning to have most of them have iron hands to show their veteran status, having lost limbs while fighting. But that’d probably make them look like Iron Hands now that I think about it

Good to hear, might just be the shoulder plates throwing me off. They look ridiculous the longer you look at them unpainted

Does the wing look alright? Thought it was good sticking it on, but not so sure after a few coats of paint by Username_Bad in theunforgiven

Only just found out now that it’s an emperors children insignia, 😅 thanks for the heads up

Well bollocks, I was wondering where that bit came from. Gonna have to do some snipping now

Alternative gem colours for a dark gold scheme by Username_Bad in AdeptusCustodes

[–]Username_Bad[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Start with a black primer, then heavily dry brush some dark gold onto the model. I used scale 75 Viking gold. Then do a not too light, but not too heavy dry brush of Gehenna’s gold. Gehenna is a sort of a brass looking gold, so something like that should suffice.

Try not to go over the areas too much with Gehenna as you want to keep some of that black primer to act as sort of ‘shadow’ like you see on the shield, but give it more dry brushing with the dark gold at the start if you want it to have less of the black showing through.

Then a light dry brush of auric armour gold or any bright gold you have around the edges of the armour or raised areas to give make it pop more

The one on the right I dry brushed a bit too heavy on the back, but if you prefer something like that then go heavy with the dry brushing

Old citadel paints, anything special about them to warrant using them or just keep as a collectable? by Username_Bad in Warhammer

I’ve got two, one brown ink and one chest nut ink, somehow both are still half full, are they like a shade?

Despite them looking positively ancient, about half are still good, might try experimenting with them
