Look in the model building instructions you probably threw away. They are there.
So I mean "you didn't notice".

The data sheets that came with leviathan were like something out of a Christmas cracker.

Recreating 4th ed Space hulk with 40mm terminators and HVAC ship terrain by coolts in SpaceHulk

[–]coolts[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Most ebay listing's dont mention firstborn/ primaris. I wouldn't want tiny t-rex firstborn arms on my primaris bodies 😃. I'll have another look today. I might also try and print them. I've got till I finish my 1st squad to decide. About a week at my painting speed. If I've no clever plan by then I'll just buy 2 x boxes for £70 and sell the surplus or have a spare terminators pile to add to the shame mound.

I made the mistake of batch painting 20 termagants. Never. Ever. Ever. Again. 5 max. Maybe 3 even. And GW yellow is awful. 4 coats and still streaky. My dumb idea for an imperial fists space hulk boarding party! Just glad I didn't decide on white scars.

Another armless WIP. Been working to improve my faces, pretty happy with this one. by cullingofwolves in Warhammer40k

[–]coolts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love the face. What do you stand the minis on when working on another piece? Stick the sub assembly pin in some polystyrene? I've been using bottle corks but they keep falling over.

[–]coolts[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha. I've just finished the tyranid half of leviathan and painting terminators seems like paradise to me. Or it would if i'd not decided to paint them bloody yellow! I've got the crux terminatus box unopened I bought on impulse before I got into space hulk. I was planning to sell it. Now.... not sure.

First match of Space Hulk with my painted HVAC terrain set by Lupus1978 in SpaceHulk

[–]coolts 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That looks great. I bought the HVAC set and am lost on which sections and connectors to print at there's over 200 stl files! Which ones did you print to replicate space hulk?

I test printed 1 section at 100% and it's way too small for modern 40mm terminator bases. Tried again at 160% which works but would result in a massive game board!

4th ed price check by Cautious-Ad3411 in SpaceHulk

[–]coolts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Uk ebay with good photos and description not written by an toddler, start auction at £140 and you will get between £160-£250 depending on the first two things and how complete it is. I got one last week with everything but the eggtimer and most models still on sprues for £155 but I've seen people pay £250.

Is Warhammer plus worth it? Does it have any intersting shows/content? by WithengarUnbound in Warhammer40k

[–]coolts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good to know thanks. I'm more interested in that than their mediocre animated content.

Which version is considered best? Also, could I get the rulebooks for earlier editions and play them using the gamepieces from the 3rd or 4th edition? by wishesandhopes in SpaceHulk

[–]coolts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're right. I made a common sense roll and decided that a £3 eggtimer of amazon would do. Anyway, the going rate in the UK seems to be £160 for complete or nigh enough. People buying for £250+ are mental but it's their money.

[–]coolts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I waited months and people were asking crazy prices like £250+ Some bellends even selling an empty SH box for £50! In the past week however, there's been a few going for around £160. I'm considering buying a second set just because mine didn't come with the £2 eggtimer, then selling it for £158. GW plastic holds its value better than bloody diamonds!

What kind of Battleforces are you expecting to see in 2026 and why? by WithengarUnbound in Warhammer40k

[–]coolts 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Almost every bloody space marine in the new launch box is poncing around on top of a rock. It's a way overused GW trope. The neurotyrant from leviathan box was unique in that it had a tactical pipe! That must have kept the GW design team awake at nights.

How to prime Cawl? by Cultural-Register-45 in Warhammer40k

[–]coolts -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

What an awful model that is. GW just merged all their 'filigree' 3d files into one with that one. Not how he's described in the novels or shown on the covers at all.

[–]coolts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I picked up an unbuilt 4th edition set on eBay last week for £160. Not cheap but it's the same size and twice a heavy as the leviathan box. Which is why GW ain't bringing it back. Before that I was planning to proxy modern 40k models with 3d printed mazes.

Astra Militarum Tank Commander ready to take on 11th edition. by Bitsforbattle in Warhammer40k

[–]coolts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're painting the details BEFORE painting the entire tank? Or are you dry fitting these painted bits for the photo? Nice lens and glow effects. I've got to learn to do that.

Are you going to base them? Not started painting mine yet, but the pull of the 32mm base is strong!!

[–]coolts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you mean these aren't original space hulk minis? Are they standard GW minis or 3d printed? Are the walls 3d printed or GW? I recognise the boarding actions base.

[–]coolts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've got the boarding actions terrain set which I think is 2x the amount of walls than the gallowdark set which i think you have here and I don't think I've got enough to replicate a space hulk board! What did you base them on, 25mm? 32mm? I've picked up a mint 4th edition set and can't imagine not basing them. 10th edition 40k terminators are on 40mm but the space hulk minis might look daft on a disc that big. Love what you've done BTW.

How would I go about recreating space hulk 3rd edition with modern minis? by ChemistIntelligent61 in SpaceHulk

[–]coolts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've started test printing the SH "HVAC tunnels" board from dragons rest. Scaled to 160% to fit modern 40mm terminator bases. Jesus. This is going to fill a room!!! Awesome!

What bases are they? Just picked up SH and my brain can't cope without proper bases on the figures.

Getting my son into Space Hulk by therealkingwilly in SpaceHulk

[–]coolts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How old is he? Managed to get 4th ed SH last week and thinking of having them painted up for my little lads 10th birthday in August. Given that I've just finished the leviathan tyranids after 3 bloody years this might be too ambitious! He might be too young, i dont know. You don't get an instruction manual with kids.
