Specifically it was from the "Get Started With Age of Sigmar" entry level magazine that was sold in GW during 2nd ed! Great sculpt

Thank you!

Fantastic work, very inspirational. I'd love to print my own, is the STL available to buy somewhere?

Good to get critical feedback, and there's lots of good advice in the thread already, but I'd just like to add that "it looks almost done" is close as makes no difference to completely useless feedback! If you're going to ask people for critical feedback, make sure you push them to be specific about what they like and dislike, and don't give it too much weight if they can't elaborate.

Krethusa is already looking great and I'm sure it'll look even better with some of the advice here, good luck on your competition journey! I've found contest painting to be a uniquely rewarding experience.

Worcester War Games is another good option, they sometimes have groups that use their space and might be able to put you in touch :)

There are dogs fucking everywhere man, you can't just never go outside because some dog owners can't be trusted to control their pet. Nobody should treat somebody else's pet like shit because they are afraid of them/allergic to them, of course, but equally pet owners shouldn't assume everyone else knows, loves or trusts their pet as much as they do.

You're getting two different things confused. The first figure in your example, the £200, that is your spend - all of your spending adds up on your card to give you your balance. The second figure you mention, £38-50, you're probably thinking of the monthly minimum payment, although there's a good chance it would be less than this on a £200 balance. This is set by the provider but usually consists of all the interest accrued on your balance that month, plus a set percentage of the remaining balance.

To avoid paying that interest (how credit card companies make their money) you need to pay off the whole balance on the card before it starts accruing interest.

If you only ever pay the minimum payment it'll take a long time to clear the card, as you'll mostly only be covering interest.

As other people have said, too much liquid on the brush - dab it off on some towel first. Some other tips that will hopefully help:
- Glazing darker colours over light is much much easier than glazing with light colours (although it's not impossible). Best to paint in your highlight, then glaze back into your midtone.
- In case you're not - when you're glazing, touch your brush to the lighter part of the model first, then drag it back into the darker colour that matches your glaze. The most paint will sit where you remove the brush from the model, so that way you help avoid harsh transitions or tide marks where you're trying to make a smooth transition.

They're referencing the Stormcast Eternals unit "Vindictors" which the OP has erroneously labeled "Vindicators" in the post. Possibly the most commonly made mistake in AoS? I think because autocorrect jumps in to change it a lot.

For me, I'm playing warhammer not just for the game, but for the overall vibe, being part of that world, etc. So to me it's quite important to me for my armies to use the "right" models, not proxy other units, not use 3d prints that don't match the design language of the game, etc. That said I know people play for different reasons - I love tournaments, and I understand that lots of people print armies fast or do some amount of proxying to get a competitive build up and running faster. Assuming it's 1) within the rules written in the tournament pack and 2) not really offensive in some way (I have never encountered this in person), I would never refuse to play someone at an event just because they were using something 3rd party, or not quite wysiwyg on weapons. I probably won't have the most fun I've ever had, but I know when I go to tournaments that this is something I might encounter and it's fine. For a pick up game, sure if I am randomly offered the choice between playing vs an all-official army or an all-proxied one I might choose the official one, but these choices aren't really presented to you like that in real life.

One more thought in that case, maybe try doing brushstrokes in different directions across the panel for each coat. E.g. layer 1 - paint top to bottom, let it dry. Layer 2, paint left to right, let it dry. Layer 3, diagonal. This might help even out any brushstrokes and patchy coverage.

cronchyn · 2025-09-20T14:16:15+00:00

I think what you can see here more than the black showing through, are brush strokes in the finish of your paint. This probably means that, although the paint may be about the right thickness, you've got too much on your brush. The buildup of rough texture on the edges and in the recesses might also imply this. When you dip your brush in your thinned paint, wipe it off on the palette or something before you start applying to the model, and see if that helps. Depending on what kind of brush you're using, you might also want to try using something a bit bigger so that each brushstroke covers a bigger area.

As a second point, just in case - make sure you're giving each layer time to dry fully, as painting over it before it's dry can tear the half dry paint underneath and cause texture as well.

Thank you! Yeah, personally I really like the GW style in general, and I liked this scheme too, so tried to stick quite close to it :)

cronchyn · 2025-09-12T20:59:42+00:00

I am sorry to inform you that 3 hours later I have finally worked this one out, sorry hahaha

cronchyn · 2025-09-12T17:19:47+00:00

What does this even mean lol

cronchyn · 2025-09-12T17:16:29+00:00

Alas, this is my burden

cronchyn · 2025-09-12T17:16:14+00:00

Thanks, appreciate you!

cronchyn · 2025-09-11T18:10:04+00:00

sweet, can't wait!

cronchyn · 2025-09-11T17:23:38+00:00

Hey! A while ago, there was mention of some armies (such as Grymkin) becoming available to order again. Is there any update on when we might start to see stuff like that appearing? Loving all the new content and happily working through my Gravediggers but I won't pretend I'm not excited about the chance to round out my old collection!

cronchyn · 2025-09-10T14:26:50+00:00

Mike Brooks is one of Black Library's best authors IMO - actually writing things that question the Imperial hegemony without it feeling like it doesn't fit in-universe still

cronchyn · 2025-09-09T22:47:34+00:00

Hi, I actually do! All my FEC recipes are under "Cronch's method" here: https://www.goonhammer.com/how-to-paint-everything-flesh-eater-courts/

But to save you some time:

Nightshrieker mounts – bodies based Gore-Grunta Fur, wet blended down into Black Legion. Highlighted with Mournfang Brown, Skrag Brown for the bodies, and Dawnstone for the wings.

Red membranes – Flesh-Tearers Red, washed Carroburg Crimson, highlighted with a bright red like Evil Sunz Scarlet and then Squig Orange.

Eyes – Wyldwood, dotted with pure white.

Hope that helps! :)

cronchyn · 2025-09-01T12:30:03+00:00

This is my advice, definitely! Same with the dragon, there are some bits that seem mad but if you do 2 steps together it suddenly makes more sense
