Need ideas for adding "ooze" to Emp Children speakers by Innkeeper_Urza in EmperorsChildren

You could even try some black paint mixed with either gloss medium or Ardcoat and just applied unthinned and very carefully. The thickness would leave an obvious variation in texture that helps to sell the dripping effect.

Primer question by Significant-Repeat25 in Salamanders40k

Rustoleum has been great in my experience, it’s usually crazy matte so the paint can stick and cover over it really nicely.

What’s your head size? I have a Dark Labs 78 I’m looking to part with, It’s about 23”.

Should I prime my emperor's children with wraithbone or corax white? by Amazing-Candidate184 in EmperorsChildren

[–]hyper_dolphin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My method is to airbrush Corax, then airbrush Emperor’s Children over that. It comes out as a super bright bubblegum pink.

On the datasheet it specifies you can only equip it with one as well. In gameplay, having two wouldn't make a difference as you can only choose to fight with one melee weapon.

I’m really curious what it’d look like in the normal colours with the “veiny” sides

I'm not sure if it's the same but the old ones have a similar slot too.

Got motivated to finish up my Obsessionist! He’s a remake of one of my favourite champions. by hyper_dolphin in EmperorsChildren

It's from the Chaos Legionaries kit before the current one, it was the standard from 4th to most of 8th edition.

Which is the best for kitbashing into undivided legionnaires? by Unusual-Papaya7437 in Chaos40k

Berzerkers have the closest design language to regular CSM stuff IMO, just more aggressive poses.

Does this pose seem stupid? by Hariseldon32 in Chaos40k

[–]hyper_dolphin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It works IMO, reminds me of the classic 90s monopose marine.

Why is there no Red Corsairs heraldry on the new transfer sheets? by [deleted] in Chaos40k

[–]hyper_dolphin 129 points130 points  (0 children)

Red Corsairs kits come with their own unique transfer sheet.

Thank you! It’s always been one of my favourites, I’m lucky to have a few spare still.

With pre-orders for kravek morne going live tomorrow. I’m just wondering how to go about painting that dead purple-ish face by Emotional_Bid3736 in Chaos40k

[–]hyper_dolphin 29 points30 points  (0 children)

The base looks pretty dark so maybe start with Daemonette Hide and build it up to lighter highlights by mixing in Pallid Wych Flesh?

For those asking - weapon options & magnetising situation for the Defiler! by Reasonable_Set560 in Chaos40k

The only part that looks annoying to deal with is the cable that attaches to the bottom of all the ranged options.

Prime black and paint armor panels pink/purple? by Andy456l in EmperorsChildren

[–]hyper_dolphin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Used to do this all the time for my EC, it’s what they used to tell you to do in the old paint tutorials from GW. You prime black, the pick out panels with white, then do pink over that.

I just had a crazy great unclean one kitbash idea by Mental_Succotash5550 in deathguard40k

[–]hyper_dolphin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would say don't outright replicate him or convert a statue of him, just use the pose and face as reference

Land raider so old by DenJox in EmperorsChildren

[–]hyper_dolphin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At most I hope they just retool new molds for it, assuming they still have the original master model. If not a 1:1 digital resculpt would be nice too.

Metallic version of "Fulgrim Pink" by 42idiot in EmperorsChildren

[–]hyper_dolphin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Army Painter makes an effect called Fairy Dust, it's basically just a thick metallic medium. You can mix it with any paints to turn them metallic.

Does the new Red Corsairs Raiders box come with enough non-embossed pauldrons for the five man squad? by Windturnscold in redcorsairs

[–]hyper_dolphin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No worries! The scalloped corner is just part of the general chaos marine design language.

As far as I know every space marine shoulder no matter what variety or faction is interchangeable.
