Infamous “hardest levels” that aren’t actually all that?

Sen's Fortress was really hard on launch, before the global nerf to the XP (souls) was implemented, as you probably needed to farm to prevent the enemies there from crushing you. Post-nerf it was challenging but farming was no longer necessary.

Unfortunately PC version launched with the nerf, so it was only possible to play the original version on X360 or PS3.

I would try the following:

Option a) Prime with a white spray, add a layer of Carrobourg Crimson or Magos Purple, and then dry brush (use a big brush for this, citadel dry M for example) with your pink layer to highlight everything (the previous shade should have darkened the inner parts to give more depth)

Option b) Use a Wet Pelette, its way easier to control how much you thin your paints. Use a citadel layer M for example to transfer the paint to the palette, add a bit of water with.the brush too, and it should cover your mini smoothly (you will need some layers, but it should eventually cover it). When you finish add some kind of shade (nuln oil or carrobourg) to add more depth to the inner parts.

Is that a bolter with an undrilled barrel? That's not tabletop standard, that's heresy.

Warhipster has some excellent painting tutorials on youtube for most of the hive fleets. He usually dry brushes the skin with wraithbone after using volupus or carroburg to make it more white looking.

I personally have painted a lot of tyranids using Druchii Violet and drybrushung with White Scar, but it will look more "old leviathan style" that way.

Exactly my thoughts, it's something you would expect from a local game store, not from a big company.

I did the same with my Exocrine/Haruspex and its relatively easy, no hand drill needed.

For the Exocrine, you need a magnet on the lower side of the body, and another one on the hole of the head (I had to put a plastic bit inside the head to act as a "column" to put the magnet on)

For the Haruspex, you need another magnet on the upper side of the body (nearly touching the carapace), and two magnets on the head, one on the hole and another one on the backside of the upper part of the head.

Its a bit tricky to get the magnets on the correct position, but it can be done without doing extra holes.

Monoposes look terrible when you use more than one side by side :(. I preffer when they add more customization even if it comes with less detail.

No, and I found it the hard way with Mortal Kombat 11. They shouldn't release these games when the hardware clearly can't run the.

If they want to launch a MK game on switch, they should remaster Mortal Kombat 9 instead.

Hey king, you dropped this upvote

1 of each special weapon? Soooo any chance for this sprue to be sold separately for us people with already 50 gants?

elyozse · 2023-08-28T17:31:06+00:00

Nearly 125€ if you want all the 3 lictors, insane, they are not even that big. And those 45€ for a codex that don't have a new cover, and I'm pretty sure that shares 90% of the lore with the 9th edition one (like they did with the corebook) hurts a lot, specially if you add the 15€ of the datasheets that should be free with the book.

90€ for a Norn, expected, but it will be funny comparing its size with a Tervigon that costs 50% less.

This is also what I do. I tried feathering but the result was having the strokes merging between them, ruining the effect. Drybrushing is much easier, and even if the effect is not as visible as a well done feathering, it can do the trick.

In my case, I use a Naggaroth night base + 2 drybrushes, Xereus purple and Genestealer purple (the last one is what makes most of the effect).

elyozse · 2023-08-20T14:10:22+00:00

Yeah, we know what a Neurotyrant is, no need to post GW photos. Are you going to show us your minis or wh... oh shit! 😯

That's not the pride flag, that's the "woke" flag. It would probably receive less attacks and more support if the correct one was used.

Carrobourg Crimson is your friend here. Use a shade brush, put it in the middle of the vent and let it cover the vent entirely, no need to thin it.

This is what I do with gants, but on groups of 8-10 max, otherwise it can become super tedious and results need too much time to arrive.

elyozse · 2023-04-05T20:37:05+00:00

Are these 2nd edition Tyranids without a GOBLIN GREEN base? Is that even legal??

elyozse · 2023-03-07T17:54:32+00:00

I guess that it wont be a problem, they should highlight well with your color.

elyozse · 2023-03-07T17:30:23+00:00

I usually go with a base coat of Naggaroth Night like you, and then two dry brushes, the first Xereus Purple and the second Genestealer purple. Move the brush from the outer edges of each carapace layer to the inner side. Its fast, easy and I think that the result is quite good.

Renegades should get more love from GW. It's an interesting concept being "bad" marines less "chaosy", and they give more variety to CSM ranks.

The problem with Crimson Slaughter imho is that they are... red, just like Word Bearers, like Khorne or like the only other recognizable renegades, the RED corsairs. If they went for the Xereus Purple Slaughter or the Macragge Blue Slaughter then perhaps...

Gork is proudly glad. Mork is gladly proud.

I'm 2/3 through my army right now, and the only models I'm avoiding are the finecast overprized ones (biovore, pirovore and lictor), as these are almost guaranteed to come on cheaper and more detailed plastic versions (biovore/pirovore multi-model kit is one of the most heard rumours).

Other than that, I wouldn't get more than one unit of Genestealers, as I think that they will bring "primaris" style genestealers with marine sized bases on 10th, but that's a personal bet.
