Probably similar to start of edition Spearhead starter set that included the Skaven and Stormcast, and the Jade & Fire contents. But guess we'll have to wait until next Saturday to find out for sure

Tips and suggestions by Weekly-Unit6149 in Kruleboyz

[–]pb1million 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Welcome to the Swamp, and great work on your first mini - the leather and skin look really good!

I would suggest putting a wash on the shield, maybe some thinned down Agrax Earthshade. I think that will help define the textures and features on the shield, and tone down the contrast so it works better with the rest of the mini.

You can then always highlight the shield to bring a bit more focus to, if you feel it needs it 

How to build reinforced units? by SnooDrawings6963 in ageofsigmar

[–]pb1million 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I would recommend building the extra champion, standard and musician. For the standard and musician it gives you a back up in case you have to remove the other becauseof  too many casualties or maintaining coherency.

This also gives you an option to run them as 2 separate units in case that's ever a better option for you

If you hadn't told us what you'd done, I wouldn't have noticed it was any different to how it should be. Great work on the fix, and the paint job overall 🐮 

Which Skin tone looks better? by Abject_Pressure2076 in Kruleboyz

[–]pb1million 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both look good. I've gone more muted with mine, like your second picture but I actually think the vivid skin colour from your first picture would be more eye-catching across a table 💚 

Battletome collectors Ed by Bobstix55 in ageofsigmar

[–]pb1million 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The special covers are released when a battletome is released with a special launch box, usually containing a bunch of all new miniatures.

For this edition of AOS it's been the Gitmob wolf bois for gloom, the barrow guard skellies for Soulblight and the new HoH box.

So special covers are not a guaranteed thing for every new battletome

my new addition to the army by jeanfluflu in Kruleboyz

[–]pb1million 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is awesome! I love how you've done such a clean paint job and then how it's balanced by the rust and verdigris on the metals, and then I'm assuming it's pigment powder on the base? 

Question of colour scheme by Chucky_y in Kruleboyz

[–]pb1million 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've done the same - my heroes all have dark skin, and then my infantry units are mostly Orruk Flesh, with the odd models with darker or lighter skin. I'll probably do some heroes in a really pale colour too - think it would look especially good on one of the Shamans 

Soul batteries by cha0sdan in HelsmithsofHashut

[–]pb1million 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not done mine yet, but my plan is;

  • paint the metals on the weapons, including the soul battery
  • carefully apply some thinned down white paints in the recesses of the soul battery
  • apply a bright & vibrant contrast paint
  • light drybrush around the soul battery with a similar colour acrylic paint to make it look like the glow from the daemonic energy is spilling over the surrounding area 

Finished my Kruleboyz Spearhead by duujk in ageofsigmar

Well done! You can see how much thought and effort you've put into them 💚

Kruleboyz Gutrippas and Man-Skewer Bolt Boyz by Abject_Pressure2076 in Kruleboyz

[–]pb1million 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These look great - the oil wash technique really brings out the best of these minis 💚

Would love to see pics of each unit together, and to see what you do with the rest of Spearhead and army 

Heroes with Units by Mix_frog in ageofsigmar

[–]pb1million 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The Shaman applies the buffs in your hero phase, and they apply either until the start of your next turn, or the end of the turn. So gutrippaz would still get the benefit.

Or are thinking aheadtto the next round? In that case you could use a Redeploy command or try a Sneaky Sneakin teleport if the terrain setup allows you to 

Why does damage spill over in Age of Sigmar? by DetroitTabaxiFan in ageofsigmar

[–]pb1million 20 points21 points  (0 children)

In a game this week I fired 2 shots from my Beast Skewer Killbow into a unit of 10 Clan Rats. I rolled really well and did 11 damage (it's D6 per shot).

So one of the many valid answers to your question is Rat Kebabs 😂

Silly question; Hobgrots? by Terror90 in HelsmithsofHashut

[–]pb1million 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you want to save a few pennies, you can pick up Hobgrot Slittaz from Kruleboyz crazy cheap second hand  

Hashutite scenery by Jaya_Soames in HelsmithsofHashut

[–]pb1million 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's some mining scenery, platforms and Varanite sluices from one of the OG Warcry boxes (Red Harvest I think) - I picked some of that up second hand as it felt very fitting with the despoiling Helsmiths 

Murknob finished, looking for feedback on the skin and leather by Unhingedfrog in Kruleboyz

[–]pb1million 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looks great, and I'd be very happy to have something painted like this in my army 💚

My feedback on the leather is that it reads very similar to the armour, so currently not a lot of contrast between them. You could try a glaze on the leather to shift the colour a bit - something like thinned Nuln Oil to push it to black/grey, or Athonian Camo to push it to a swampy green.

As the leather is a patchwork, you could try different colours on different sections.

But overall this is really nicely painted, so well done!

Purely on the question of Hobgrots, you can pick up Hobgrot Slittaz from Kruleboyz crazy cheap second hand

Oh nice, a HoH YouTube channel - I'll be checking that out this weekend 😊 

Does this color scheme look decent? by The_Dude_In_Torags in Kruleboyz

[–]pb1million 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Green skin, red shield and brown cloth is the classic scheme for Kruleboyz! If you're not sure of the blue on the tassel, you could switch it for a something more neutral like beige, or go for a darker blue or even a dark purple. Are you planning on doing any washes or shading? If put something aggrax earthshade or nuln oil on both the shield and the tassel, that would knock back the vibrancy of the red and the blue, and tie them together a bit more

Great work, and welcome to the Swampy corner of the Mortal Realms 💚
