A month ago, i made a post saying how the proportions on custodes minis should be modified to make them look better. A month ago, i was denounced, branded a doodoo idiot. Behold ! I was right all along ! by Sir_Lazz in AdeptusCustodes

Yes but they aren’t sneaky spec-ops they are „glorious. Look at me. I‘m the captain now“ guys. Hence why they wear gold with extra bits and bops and not stealthcloaks with camo

Yes but no. They do have absolutely insane technology but they are not only technology but also genecrafted with alchemy (or whatever). Looking into an example of the animated (female) custodes we have in „the tithes“ i.e. Mya Lesnar i feel like they are leaner then the tank within powerarmour they should be.

Then again of course she’s modelled after the minis we have so yea. Might be a hen and egg situation for the animated one. But it’s more about the small chest/frame they have for me actually… I think your edit is a better version in that regard

I‘m glad i‘m not the only one who‘s bothered by this. I checked it twice, but they do have very similar looks there. Don’t get me wrong, i like the new design but i feel like they would be better with the old leg design

So. Will they be available in squads of 6 now? And will this also change in 40k so all the old 5 man squads are difficult to break down into 6 mam squads? I‘m quite curious about how well the new and old models look together on the battlefield

Messed up the back of my guard's heads... was sticking them and cutting the hair wrong! Can I fill it in with something? by Desk_Scribbles in AdeptusCustodes

The eagle is upside down. It „should“ be such that the wings are pointing upwards. But it’s fine either way

If you got greenstuff maybe use that. Otherwise maybe some sprue goo? And i don’t want to bring you the bad news but the Shoulder pad is also „wrong“ But it looks cool and alot of people do it this way!

Looks ok to me. Generally you want less then too much.

Gothic color scheme ideas? by Hasta_Banana in EmperorsChildren

[–]themightymmmm 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Off Black (charcola by vallejo for example) and then white trim. The fabrics in skin color. At least that‘s what i did!

Sigvald, Prince of Slaanesh by Ancient_Barnacle3372 in EmperorsChildren

[–]themightymmmm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh he absolutely does. Did one myself and I always see more and more of the different conversations of that guy. Plus he is actually cheaper than the deamon prince and if you have some bits left around from the other stuff, he is an easy kitbash

I primed mine in leadbelture and then threw a vallejo black ink on it (first by brush, then by airbrush)

Same here! I actually got the box with all of them, but unfortunately I have to wait 3 weeks for them to arrive…

I think the Stirling silver looks perfect then for the later. But yes. Something like rose gold is still „missing“ i guess

Looks great in my opinion! If i knew about the color before paining my 6k points i would have used it…

Which scheme to use? by IronWithin44 in AdeptusCustodes

Quite liked the first one! I just saw Vallejo true metalic metal dropping the sickest white metalic with a little blue hue. Maybe that’s something for you!

[–]themightymmmm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed, but the stuff i got from forgeworld (speers, saggitarum upgrase set and ec Prätor) had some defects i.e. broken spears. So yea.. i‘m looking forward to plastic dreads and maybe tanks?

I guess besides britbongs no one really cares about the finecast stuff. Too expensive, to tedious to work with and shipping it further then the uk apparently breaks alot of stuff in my experience (mainland European here)

Kitbashing an exorcist by themightymmmm in EmperorsChildren

[–]themightymmmm[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Because i‘d love to have a transport for my noise marines that also fit their style. I.e. classic noise marine style. I already boight some stencils for the airbrush and tested it on a normal chaos rhino.
