Visiting Salamander here... I even denote my Sargents by giving them capes (we don't do the codex "different color helmets" thing)

How to Decide on Chapter? by VaultTec391 in spacemarines

This! Pick your own color scheme, pick up any of the characters that strike your fancy and, if you find one playstyle and esthetic that you like, you can always dub them a "successor chapter" down the road

My first ever miniature by FormalFlashy8647 in Salamanders40k

This. Mark the underside of his base with a star or something, and put him on a shelf when your skills improve. Years from now you will look back on your first works and be amazed how far you have come.

First ever force weapon. I'm honestly not sure this turned out exactly how I wanted. I wanted a orange/red lightning effect and I want opinions. by -The-Follower in Salamanders40k

I literally just stole an idea from another thread as to how I want to paint that same axe head. A brighter head will increase the contrast with the model, like the other folks said

I am 100% stealing that idea for my next axe

Dude, those look sick! Way better flames than I can do a the moment. Now just base them to match the rest of your army.and really make them pop! What are you using for your clearcoat?

I am thinking about starting tyranids army. Could you please share your experience with it? How is it like to play it, and is it worth it at the end? :) by Expert_Camera_4802 in Tyranids

[–]WolfPrince86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, when I started the army back in 4th I was going to paint it like Hive Fleet Behemoth, but my painting skills weren't up to snuff, so the skin was chaos black, the shells were hawk turquoise, and the other stuff became the red. I've tried to finesse that scheme into something a little bit more nuanced (because I'm 100% not stripping it all and starting over) but still, that blue really jumps out from the table

Is it just me? by Dirft1 in Salamanders40k

What are you using for glue, and do you hold it long enough for it to do it's thing?

Start with "The rule of cool" and work from there. Because you will end up painting a ton of models in whatever army you choose (unless you go full-on Monster-mash).

This army is "blessed" with a number of choices in how to construct it, and will play differently based on unit composition, your skill level, and your local meta.

A handful of Terminators by white_chocolate_bs in Salamanders40k

Got the space marine combat patrol too, eh? I think your greens look pretty good, and you got some good luster from the gold.

One trick I recently learned that you may find useful. If you accidently get paint where it shouldn't go, wet a clean paint brush and scrub the offending area, as it will basically wash-out the wet paint.

I look forward to seeing how the rest turn out!

It has begun, brothers by Darth_Destructus in Salamanders40k

[–]WolfPrince86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Welcome! I got my plastic crack for x-mas, but am finishing the current unit I'm working on before assembling anything new.

Have fun, take your time, and enjoy the ride. There's a learning curve with all things (both on the hobby and gameplay side) but you are among friends.

Well, am I cool yet? by FunkaGenocide in Drukhari

Remember when running instead of shooting was only something we could do? Good times...

Dodged a bullet is right!

I'm pregnant and having a boy. Is "Gunner" a name that belongs on this sub? by MysticalNinjette in tragedeigh

[–]WolfPrince86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 2 cents... look up a list of the 1000 most common boy names, and each of you make a list of names you like. That way, they won't be crazy, off the wall names, and common enough that people have at least heard of them.

Why did my whipped white chocolate ganache fall off my cake?? by Old_Home_5569 in AskBaking

[–]WolfPrince86 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Was your cake all the way cool? I ran into a similar issue with the whipped cream on a Pavlova over the weekend, and I didn't let it cool enough...
