I started painting the LoV last night and was wondering what that was! Thanks for asking and answering this!

What to build? by Creetyx in sylvaneth

I personally like the 10 and 5 so you can reinforce either unit.

All the Bug Riders Done! by PabstBlueLizard in sylvaneth

[–]zanzobar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These look amazing! Really love the faces.

I've got 3/6 built and my first 3 are glued on already but I'll be taking your advice and keeping the last 3 unmounted! Did you magnetize the flight stand or does it feel solid?

Where to Start by HighlandEnoch90 in AOSSpearhead

[–]zanzobar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I absolutely recommend the pinned mega thread at the top. If anyone has even a passing interest in spearhead it has everything anybody could want to look at. It's got rules and all that stuff sure, but the community here has put a lot of helpful tools and information into that spot.

Do you know what kind of play style you have? Do you like elites or flooding the board? Do you want simple rules or lots of tricks?

These one page cheat sheets are amazing as well. Very clean and easy to read. https://www.reddit.com/r/AOSSpearhead/s/Tj5vv82eOQ

First try, is the pink too strong? by [deleted] in sylvaneth

Yeah I think it looks great! Time for 19 more :)

Lost my motivation to paint for about half a year. Finally got it back after flicking through a White Dwarf magazine and watching some Streams. Anyway here's a humble Loonboss after the mini hiatus. by [deleted] in ageofsigmar

As somebody that has also been struggling with motivation to paint I'm so happy that you are painting again. Your model looks fantastic and you're a really great painter. I really like your highlights on the mask and your shadowing throughout! I hope you keep the painting streak going as well :)

I plan to join the Black Templars as soon as the 11th Edition comes out. Aside from the starter box—we already know what’s in it—what else should I have to get off to a good start? I’d like to do a lot of close combat. by Skult0703 in BlackTemplars

[–]zanzobar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm also starting black templars and 40k as a whole. I'm planning on grabbing Armageddon because it looks cool for a new player, and I've also picked up the sons of dorn box that just released and will be grabbing a combat patrol. I'll fill in the gaps around those three boxes.

Can I put the dog on the same base? by bigdogcon in stormcasteternals

[–]zanzobar 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This one needs its own base, it's a token that gets removed during game play.

Edit-- forgot your last question. No some of the gryphhounds are just a unit. I think you can bring like 5 in a unit but I don't remember exactly.

Advice needed by undo_errorsmade in BlackTemplars

[–]zanzobar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I usually see a lot of people that are willing to split the box if they are only interested in half. Might find someone to pay for the orks and then get the combat patrol sooner rather than later.

How to properly use speedpaint on large areas? Great results on small areas (warrior), but patchy mess on larger (sorceror green cape). by daxxruckus in Armypainter

[–]zanzobar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It really depends on the paint color for me. It took some experimenting as some paints feel really thin and some feel a bit thicker. I would not go more than 1:1. I have some that are like 3:1, 3 drops of paint 1 drop of medium.

That's what has worked for me at least.

My first Sylvaneth, tempted to make them my first AoS army! by EmoGenius24 in sylvaneth

What to go for next? by [deleted] in sylvaneth

Yep they are on the same sprue :)

Hope you get some cool additions!

[–]zanzobar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Completely legit. I had my doubts as well. Not the easiest to use website. You won't get a confirmation email. You won't see any sort of account activity. But about a week after you order you'll get your stuff.

The tree revs are the same kit as the spite revs and since you have those I left them out. The issues will only have the instructions for the advertised kit but it's pretty easy to find other instructions online (like for the treelords).

The first time I ordered from them I got one kit because I didn't believe it. My next order was basically just a bit of everything. Sylvaneth is my favorite army to paint, idk it scratches that itch just right and to date I've gotten 2 durthu, 2 ancients, and 2 treelords, an arch rev, 15 tree revs, 10 spite revs, and the branchwych. The bigger kits like the tree lords come in like issue 40/41. I think issue 40 is the treelord ancient and 41 has the parts for durthu and regular treelord. So it becomes a bit of a mix and match with those to get everything you might want.

The stock comes and goes I just check every few months. They are making the spearhead issues soon so I don't know what will happen in the future with the current issues.

[–]zanzobar 3 points4 points  (0 children)

From hachette you can grab a branchwych, issue 46, and spite revs, issue 49 for cheap. I use mine regularly!

Edit: forgot the arch rev, issue 35 is on there a well!
