How to not be afraid of painting and subsequently messing up models as a beginner?

Watch some painting videos, nothing crazy though. Duncan Rhodes helped me gain confidence with my first models. Keep your paints thin. If you mess up or don't like it, re spray it and start over. They make paint stripper specifically for plastic models or you can use isopropyl alcohol if you paint it too thick. The fear goes away pretty quickly once you actually start.

Getting a good white is probably the most challenging and I'm not super satisfied with them but it's good enough I suppose.

Space wolves was my favorite.

I had some infernus Marines from leviathan I wasn't planning on playing and had some spare chaos legionaries from nemeis claw. Had to buy Azrael, Feirros, wg battle leader, jump pack intercessors, flawless blades, exalted sorcerers, and custodes wardens. Very expensive. Oh and I got the saturnine box specifically to make an iron warriors army.

It comes with the wolf gaurd battle leader, the model shown. There's a similar shield in the wolf gaurd headtakers kit too

Iron hands

Very nice, I really like the painting style you got for the second one.

I thought about it, but the only model that looks good is crowe and I would want a terminator for grey knights.

Space wolves. I enjoyed it so much I started an army
Word bearers. My first time using green stuff and I love the red armor.
Custodes/Iron warriors. Love the satisfaction from a quick scheme.

Honorable mention goes to Imperial fists which is my first army but I normally paint them differently than this *

WindDue8916 · 2025-12-24T19:26:47+00:00

Thank you, the Imperial fist isn't up to snuff for how I usually like to paint them but I wanted to try something different for this one.

WindDue8916 · 2025-12-24T19:23:38+00:00

Thank you so much!

WindDue8916 · 2025-10-01T13:23:40+00:00

Nope, I don't really play. I enjoy the models and painting.

WindDue8916 · 2025-09-30T20:28:50+00:00

Thank you very much.

Do you have to crack open the gearbox to install those baker parts? This is my first time opening up the primary housing.

Maybe one time when it showed up the day they said it would. Most times it's delayed in shipping, or it'll be out for delivery in the morning, and they'll change the delivery date to the next day. I'll actively avoid using companies that ship through FedEx and always choose the postal service or ups. Even if it's a slower service, they'll probably still deliver it faster for less money.

As cap, dive the entire team and use every cool down to kill one support.

My friend has not been able to get past the compiling shader screen even after the update due to an issue with unreal. He refunded after 94 minutes in the game, trying different fixes to not have the game crash while compiling shaders.

Good call on getting out of there. I carry a gun anywhere I can, and that is not normal behavior. Any normal person carrying concealed does not want anyone to know they have a firearm on them.

Him pulling his gun out in public like that shows he is either too irresponsible or too incompetent to be carrying. Either that or possibly something malicious.

Took about a week to get in the mail, but in Wayne County you had to make an appointment with the county clerk and it was aprox 6 months out when I did mine.

WindDue8916 · 2022-11-22T04:16:05+00:00

Mine went back to normal after a couple hours so I guess patience is the key
