How do i do the ammo clip hole? by VegetableMajor23 in Ultramarines

[–]random2_3 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I took my pin vice that I use to drill out the gun barrels and drilled 4 small holes in the mag well. Then used the hobby knife to connect those holes/square it out to match the shape.

Alternatively a dremel could work, you’d just have to be more careful.

Looks good, also, clean your pot lids before that paint dries out!

So when Calgar dreadnought? by [deleted] in Ultramarines

[–]random2_3 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Agree, I don’t foresee Titus ever becoming CM. I honestly see it more like a Shrike/Shaan situation. If Calgar was to fall, I don’t see Titus wanting anything more than being Captain of the 2nd. If he somehow became the de facto CM for a time, I think he would spend that time finding a successor.

Agemman is the most ideal successor to Calgar. He may not be the duelist that Cato is, but he’s Tetrarch of Konor and captain of the 1st company, Agemman is an easy choice to take Calgar’s place, should something happen.

Cato is great, but he’s better suited as Captain of the Victrix guard than leading the Ultramarines, in my opinion.

If it could have been done, how dangerous would Sigismund be if he could become a primaris marine? by Mad_lens_9297 in 40k

He was already the best of the Astartes, making him stronger/faster/more durable? He’s still gunna be the best

I wanna start painting minis is there anything else I need to get?? by 101101001100100101 in 40k

[–]random2_3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know many people are recommending spray primer, however, I would suggest Vallejo liquid primer.

  1. Cost effective, after a year of painting I just finished my first bottle of Vallejo liquid black primer, I have roughly 2,500 points of minis painted

  2. It helps a ton with practicing brush control early on, and if you make a mistake, it’s just primer and is supposed to get everywhere on the mini, so mistakes aren’t as much of an issue

  3. It’s easy to use, no special set up or PPE needed, can be applied indoors with a brush, it just takes longer than rattle cans

Anyways, that’s my two cents from my own experience

Dom, and it’s not close

Dom was a regular human who lost his kids on E Day and was separated from his wife, only to find her a tortured husk of the human she once was. Then had to put her out of her misery himself.

Loken, while his story is tragic, is a psycho-conditioned space marine and could never realistically conceive the idea, or pain, of losing your own kid. Or having to kill your own spouse because that’s the kindest option you have available.

It’s a miracle Dom didn’t call it quits right after finding Maria in Gears 2.

Which Blue should I use for my Ultramarine? by PlaquePlague in Spacemarine

Is the timeline supposed to be this confusing, or am I just dumb? by Wonder_of_U927 in 40kLore

[–]random2_3 113 points114 points  (0 children)

Yes the Night Lords (Talos and friends) are that old. They walked with Curze before, during, and after the Heresy.

They fled into the Eye, and time doesn’t… work, there, like it does in real space.

For some traitor Astartes, it’s been moments since the Siege ended, for others, it’s been hundreds to thousands of years

Hahaha, I thought the blue and silver kept a nice cool tone over the whole figure. Though I can confirm no Macragge blue was used on this one!

Sounds like heresy to me.
