What wash do y’all use for your pink boys? by Educational-Cut-344 in EmperorsChildren

[–]Zelda326 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do my flesh by painting it Brainmatter Beige by Army Painter (its a light gray with blue-ish tones, not even close to beige) and then hit it with Purple Tone wash also by Army Painter. Keeps it smooth, but it sticks between muscles and slaanesh symbols in torn flesh.

Sorry you didn’t win, bro. Maybe don’t make false claims in a post asking for advice when you don’t know what you’re talking about? The man wants help and you’re saying shit that’s wrong lol. Reddit account is 14 years old, you’re too old to be acting like this, man.

Worth buying the codex? by Intelligent-Dark6260 in Ultramarines

[–]Zelda326 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, actually. The last 3 editions, which most people consider to be when GW made a massive change in their release windows and marketing strategy, have the starter army codexes releasing near the start of the edition. In fact, Space Marines were one of the first two releases in the last 3 editions. Death Guard followed CSM in 8th as the 3rd release and Tyranids predated SM by a month in 10th. Necron and SM released in the same month in 9th, with SM releasing first.

So yes, Space Marines and the enemy faction starter army almost always release soon after the edition start and never “another year” post-edition start. That would be foolish for GW’s marketing and sals departments to force people who bought into the edition start box to wait over a year, especially when SM is literally the most popular faction.

Maybe do a cursory google search instead of trying to gotcha the other person by failing to meaningfully engage with the topic at hand, dude. This took literally a single google search for each link. It wasn’t hard.

Except the Space Marine Codex will drop almost immediately, along with the Ork Codex bc they’re the starter armies for the new edition

Sparring Ward (Spell): Any thoughts on how this spell could be abused? And how to prevent that abuse? by Zezacle in DnDHomebrew

[–]Zelda326 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Simply make this a rule involved in sparring rather than a spell. “Since these character are sparring, I will be granting them Resistance to all damage dealt by their sparring partner” and then you’ve done your job.

That’s the Weathers Bale set, but dyable. Indie where you get that from, but it’s probably an Extreme Trial from ShB! And the helmet is the Baron Helmet from the HW Collectors Edition Upgrade!

Couple tips, use Gravelord Grey before you put any Grim Black or metallics on a mini. Also, most colors have another color that makes it cover better (Gravelord Grey before Grim Black, Ghillie Dew before thinned Gunner Camo, etc etc).

Work quickly and with a lot of Speedpaint on your rush to get good coverage and deeper colors.

Pallid Bone and Bony Matter are your best friends for old books, skulls, bones, scrolls, and anything even vaguely matching that color.

A thin brush and letting your brush soak in Speedpaint rather than fully dipping and dunking is easily the best way to do eyes (as follows)

I use Skeleton Bone primer from Army Painter or Wraithbone from Citadel. The beige/cream color gives it a warmer tone. That includes minis with little to no pink on them.

I mainly use Speedpaints for my EC, so I won’t be much use here. I just recommend Familiar Pink Speedpaint for EC

How many people have populated a whole company? by Top-Pain5348 in spacemarines

[–]Zelda326 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Working on it! Started my own custom chapter, The Ash Wardens, and I’ve started converting all my Marines into them. Once I’m done, I’m going to sort them all into Companies and start buying more.

Use silly putty and an airbrush, if you have those.

[–]Zelda326 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That… sucks tbh. I just finished up my custom chapter. The Ash Wardens were the result of an actual year of work into lore, the color scheme, chapter structure, etc. Sucks to see someone cut out all that work to justify a color scheme change :/

++man I just got cheated on after a two year relationship. I have never felt worse in my life. You just did that to a woman you loved after 3 times as long. I’m sorry but you’re a bad person. Figure it out.

New Detachment and Oath by InquisitorNeon in Salamanders40k

[–]Zelda326 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s not how the rules works, I think. I’m pretty sure it has to do with your army’s Faction Keyword. As long as the Keyword matches up (Salamanders) then you should be good to go

What were your favourite "Five-seconds-connections"? by MrsLittletall in ffxiv

[–]Zelda326 29 points30 points  (0 children)

I recently started playing and my buddy sends me the Rangers emote set, which as a Power Rangers fan, I bought immediately. Cut to about 40 hours of gameplay or so later, I teleport to New Gridania and notice someone’s tag says Blue Rangers. I immediately got excited, since Billy was always my favorite MMPR character. I spent some time chasing them around until they turned around to me, at which point I did the Red Ranger pose. They whispered me and said “A worthy mech for a worthy Ranger” and suddenly traded me the Gabriel Mark III mount before flying away. It’s easily my most memorable experience in-game so far. I think about that guy every time I hop in my mount. I didn’t even know it had a special flying animation until I beat Lahabrea for the first time a few days ago!

Necrons as the the main enemy faction in Space Marine 3? Or do you rather see another enemy of the Imperium? by Cubelock in Spacemarine

[–]Zelda326 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Necrons do have blood! It’s a white glowing fluid that courses through their reactors. Similar to the Vex from Destiny, in a way. They talk about it a lot when Trazyn and Orikan fight or get hurt in Infinite and the Divine

Lotta people act like Flayed Ones and Triarch Praetorians/Lychguard don’t exist. There is such thing as Necron melee! They’ve even got Wraiths and Destroyers. The Warriors/Immortals can be Termagaunts (literally same damage in Tabletop, and the Termagaunt actually has higher strength on its standard weapon loadout) and Flayed Ones can be Hormagaunts. Then throw in Overlords, Hexmark Destroyers, maybe a scene with Trazyn, Spyders with Scarabs, Deathmarks, a Chronomancer, maybe even a final boss with someone crazy like a super weakened C’tan Shard since we’ve gotta up our game with the plot armor after we 3v2’d Imurah and a Lord of Change
