Put together the other wing so now I can have better examples
Straight or angled wings?
Keep in mind the winds are going to be loaded with bombs
>>46039138
Straight, although both trigger my Autism senses
>>46039138
could they just be straight all the way across? the last segments being angled up is ugly, and if you straighten em out you'd have an orky B-29
>>46039138
The second one, for sure.
The British are coming (along).
>>46039138
I'd say the second wing position. Also I dig the nose guns.
Can someone post the space marine how to paint white armor with the brown shades?
I would appreciate it
still looking for advice on progressing with my model- shades and most layers done. it's going to be a desert vehicle, and i have a tamiya texture paint, but im wary of overdoing it- i thought maybe a bit of sand in the nooks and crannies of the vehicle, but mostly just dust the lower half with Armageddon Dust. thoughts?
Reposting for my Westernerbros then I won't post it again until I get some painting done
Update from last thread
Wash went alright I guess but I'll have to have another go at the wear and do some work on the parts I stuck dirt on because it looks like a monkey splotched it all over the place. Which is what happened.
The Sentinels still need another coat but I used some magnets to make poseable bases so the walkers can be taken off them, said utility which is now being used for handholding.
>>46040252
I intend on getting the 54mm minis wings. I still need another Warlord Testudo, a couple more 54mm, a second HE phoenix and a dragon.
>>46040331
You need to utilize stencils and use paint in spray form in order to do great camo. The variant you have already is lacking.
is the army warpaints good quality?
was thinking getting vallejo but I just want to hear your opinion.been buying citadel paints like a retard without doing much research
Anyone have tips for bright orange? layering troll slayer over jokaero orange is literally killing me, there has to be a better way to do this
>>46040331
It's a good start, m8.
But in my experience brushed-on white almost always looks like ass.
>>46040366
basecoat with yriel yellow over white primer and then layer orange.
>>46040362
I've been painting with citadel for some 20 years now. Tried several other brands but I keep coming back because they are, if nothing else, very consistent and always available.
>>46040362
I like citadel for cartoony colours and washes, I like vallejo for more serious real world hues, and I like reaper for their matched 3 tone sets.
>>46040419
>I have to work yellow in to get the orange I want
what have I done
speaking of white primer, what has people's experience with corax white been? I have a can of skull white but it's always been a pain in the ass to use, especially with the weather around here
Anyone have scans of the WD with Genestealre Cult pain schemes?
A shitty pic of my freshly painted Screamers. Desperate to paint more of these happy little gentlemen at some pointafter I find the will to do more pink horrorshelp

>those crystals
Are you the same guy working on the necrons?
>>46040933
Nope, I really dig his bases though, he seems to be doing what im trying to do correctly. Meant to ask where he got his crystals from.
>>46040786
He looks like he's having so much fun.
>>46041113
I can make crystals... not sure where other guy got his though.
>>46039138
I prefer angled down. No mater what you go with, it's going to look mad.
>>46040786
Buttery smooth paint job man. Love it.
>>46014224

F4U Corsair is the most beautiful plane to see combat
I need a very small stone for my marine to be putting a foot on...
Could I just cut up some sprue, prime it and paint it to look like a rock, or should I go buy some modelling rocks?
I have some snap fit Termis from the assault on black reach box. Should I magnetize the arms, or not worry about it?
>>46042422
nigger rocks are free, just go outside and dig around
>>46042498
Well there's not much point unless you have spare arms.
>>46042640
That's true, and I think I have more termis here somewhere. I've just read a lot of

Got myself a new large cutting mat!

I can't tell if it's edge highlighted or not
Practice your straight lines my friend
Otherwise I like it, would be happy to play with
Do pre-heresy assault marines need to have those straps that go over the front torso?

>>46043577
Lookout we got a big mek over here
I love it!
Two questions. Repainting my kroot, they are all albino (bone color skin, red spines and eyes), and im wondering how to paint tribal type tattoos on skin, anyone have a reference image or experience with it? Aso would red tattoos draw away from the albino aspect? Was thinking of orange tats but it came out garish
>>46043430
They don't all have straps but they all have unique torsos. The ones that don't have straps such as mk iv will have mounting points for the jump pack harness
So no you're not supposed to just glue jump packs to non jump torsos. Go look at FWs legion jump kits to make sure. I think mk v and vi may use the same torsos
>>46043897
i reckon red tattoos would emphasis it, and give them a more unifying colour scheme. like they embrace their mutation.
>>46043897
Try mixing your tattoo colour with your skin tone so it's not so bright.
>>46043941
Was gonna try that again with more skin tone, comes out too pink with the offwhite though
>>46044019
Just thin down the color with medium so it comes out translucent.
>>46044019
In that case toning down the red with a brown, or even doing just brown tattoos perhaps?
>>46043906
Well shit, I spent time cutting down a raptor pack and casting it when it turns out that the Sanguinary Guard packs were the Heresy era standard
>>46044162
The plastic raptors have spiky mk ii and mk iii jump packs. The metal ones have some kind of weird pattern I don't know. Looks like something Emperors Children would use.
>>46044162
The jump packs the SG use are mkIV and weren't really the standard throughout the heresy, that would be the older marks that >>46044218 says the CSM raptors use.
Why do watered down washes leave milkyish residues sometimes?
>>46044454
If you leave a pot of wash rest for a while the paint and medium seperate. When you add water you're not really effecting the medium as much as the pigment in the wash itself.
>>46044364
It may be "revisionist history", but there are a couple of First Edition metal Mk VI jump packs in the lower right of this picture.
I deleted the un-memed version of this picture last night, thinking there was no way I was ever going to need it.
>>46042994
Eh, close, but it was 4 panels, started with a brown, then bone then wash them touch up, it didn't use actual white until the highlight stage
so going to be adding some details to the hoods of my jetbikes, want to do more than just chevrons, and am thinking of doing some Dark Eldar style glyphs to go with the Il-Kaithe theme.
Any advice/videos on freehanding and dark eldar glyphs?

So I'm good with using the dual turbine packs with the BaC marines?
>>46043134
>Your first two models
Anon those are actually really good. Half of us on here ended up with something like this.
>>46044761
Yeah but technically you should be using the jump pack Mk IV torsos as they have a different look that let's them "connect" to the jump pack. You can mix jump packs but there's no way to attach a jump pack to a regular chest.
You can glue it on and most people wont notice but anyone who knows what a Mk IV jump marine looks like will know you just glued a jump pack to a regular guy. The next box BaC set will feature jump packs.
everything done but weathering, and i'm hesitant on how to do it.
i need tips on how to go about it. i dont think i should dirty up the treads, but i'm not sure how to represent wear in the desert aside from just sandblasted metal.
>>46044865
>The next box BaC set will feature jump packs
Well...piss. I feel like I'm just wasting time and effort now
>>46044672
My nigga
>>46044906
You could save the work you've done already any maybe make a mixed unit with the modern SM kit (excluding the mk8 set) to represent heresy era armour sets.
>>46044978
I thought the next set was supposed to be IW and IF in boarding actions. Is there an article about the next set I missed?
>>46045081
Early rumors in January said assault marines with jump packs and devastators which sense if you consider that we don't have those in plastic yet.
March rumors simply say mk iii armor.
It could be IW vs IF with mk iii jumpers and shield marines, or simply devastated and shield marines which is more siegey

>>46045188
I hate those savage orks. They're too bright green and their grass skirts are too lewd and they don't have enough cool tattoos!
>>46044761
You dont want jump packs on tactical marine legs. They wont look right. Assault marines are in motion, BaC tacs are all standing still.
>>46044865
There's gonna be another BaC box?
Fuck yes.
I wanted to replace my entire 40k list with those guys.I'm gonna be so broke.
>>46044454
It could be your water. If I use tapwater to thin, it left white residue in the recesses. Impurities in the water I assume.
Try distilled water from a container.
>>46045482
Those things print money. Of course they'd make more.
>>46045501
>Been using tapwater the entire time
Maybe... maybe just maybe that played a hand in my really bad thinning when I first started.
>>46045514
Oh I know they print money.
I've purchased 2, and a guy at my shop has placed a bulk order on them (I have no idea what the fuck he does to spend that much on plastic at once).
>>46045241
Slayer Sword? Also, LONDON
>>46045539
Tap water is okay but you might live in an area with hard water or very dirty water and the minerals, metals, or contaminants will mess with your paint. My city has drinkable unfiltered tap water so it's ok, but I still use Vallejo thinner since it's much smoother and less runny. Try purified or bottled water or a thinner
>>46045514
Actually BaC didnt meet sales goals, straight from the horses mouth.
>>46045580
...Yeah, around here we warn against drinking the tap water.
I'll try a thinner sometime. Do I just dab my brush in it and mix it with my paint on the palette? Is it better to avoid a wet palette given the shit quality of my water?
What do you guys use for airbrush areas? I live in an apartment, and I'm afraid of getting it on walls.
>>46045216

Army Painter's Dragon Red color primer - is it any good?
I'm a lazy bitch and want to spray my models their base color for now and work on them from there.
>>46046012
If you're going to do that be sure to buy a bottle of dragon red paint as well. You're going to want to be able to go back and clean up mistakes that are made as you paint, so having a matching paint is important.
>>46046043
Mmm, I should check if the store I'd be going to has the bottles as well.
Otherwise I'll have to wait a bit and order online.
Do you know if the Plate Mail Metal spray is good as well? I have two schemes in mind now.
>>46046082
Anon, I have no idea how good any of their sprays are. I'm just pointing out something about the whole 'color primer' scheme that people often forget.
>>46045897
Enjoy, red and ultramarine blue are the nicest colours to paint.
>>46044672
Maybe we should just start adding this pic to the OP.
>>46046126
Oh, my mistake.
Good point though.
That's it for tonight, tomorrow ill dip it in glue and roll it in gubbinz

>>46045897
Are vallejo paints better than the reaper ones? I have a bunch of reaper ones.
>>46047292
Sameish from my experience.
>>46047292
If you get Vallejo Air they're better. If you just get regular Game Color or Model Color it's about the same. Although Game Color is inferior to Model Color so I guess VMC is slightly better than Reaper? But Reaper and VGC have better colors than VMC.
beep beep finished skorcha coming through
it looks good and i didnt even have to glue nid bits all over it this time
after these i'll stop posting pictures of the damn thing every four hours
Started working on my second broadside. I plan to do something fun with the red one and leave the other one green. Also tried osl on the rail gun but it needs some fixing up. Any suggestions on the red guy? I'm thinking about a tau red cam scheme.

Anyone have any experience with these $10 Cadians:
https://www.games-workshop.com/en-US/Imperial-Guard-Cadians-5-models
How easy are they to chop up and convert? I'm thinking of throwing on some extra Skit and Scion heads, tweaking their guns and calling them Acolytes for my Inquisition.
>>46048583
if theyre like how i'm thinking of, almost no room at all. they're snap fit two-piece models, a torso and the arms-gun just fit into a circle slot on the body.
like the old ork models you'd get with the LOTR magazine
>>46048626
Eh. I'll grab some from my FLGW anyway and see if I can't decapitate them to my liking.
>>46048697
The detail is much like the chaos warrior variant, where there should be gaps inbetween a shield or a weapon from a chest it's solid cast so you'll have to provide painted on shadow detail. If you're going to give them expensive bits from other companies I'd just buy a box of cadians. Save yourself alot of hassle and use a superior miniature.
>>46048800
Not planning on actually giving them anything else, just scratch building some "stormbolters" of a sort.
Inspired by that one guy from the other thread, I used my terminators and stormcast bits to make these assholes.
>>46049002
GK helm and AoS legs make them look like frogmen.
>>46049033
To be fair, the cameral quality is shit and I took a bad picture. Also I don't have any other assault terminator arms atm. Gonna buy the blood angles assault termies later for em

If you can't be bothered to do a proper job then leave it to someone else.
>>46048244
It's... OK. Honestly anon, the painting is a little messy and areas that should be distinct kind of blend into each other visually. If it were my model, I'd do some serious black-lining, or maybe I'd put a nice dark wash over it (I like Army Painter strong or dark tone) to accomplish something similar.
You clearly put a lot of work into it and are proud of it, but it's letting you down right now. With just a little more work, it could really shine.
>>46040786
Great, as always. Did you paint your johnny yet?
>>46049438
thankyou for the feedback, especially identifying the areas i could have done better and suggesting improvements :)
>>46044889
>>46044901
Dude, you should really watch some tutorials. This is really sloppy work all over. Bad coverage, thick paints, primer showing. Miniature painting requires a lot of patience. You can't just slap on some paint and expext it to be good. At least not the first time around
Wip sergeant
>>46049550
I think his problem lies in either the paint itself or the primer to be honest.
>>46049550
it's the first ork vehicle i've ever done. i think i'll prime with black for vehicles now. white undercoat is hard to stop showing through without dabbing paint into every corner, and half of these i didnt even see until i took the photos.
>>46049604
What paints are you using? Please dont tell me tamiya.
>>46049626
citadel. armypainter white primer. mephiston red, leadbelcher and warboss green for the base layers. brass scorpion for the brass.
>>46049604
Black primer is cerainly more forgiving than white. Especially for vehicles and metallics. If you want proper coverage, you will have to "dab paint into every corner" as you say. If it ain't painted it ain't painted.
The warbuggy is old and wonky, and what I see as thick paint might as well be bad casting from an old mold.
Don't give up. You can do this. Woo
>>46049673
http://bitsofwar.com/home/114-orc-halftrack-with-flamer-.html
this is the model here. it was probably my painting being wonky, the model was amazing quality.
>>46049655
Is the army painter coming out flat? I would prime the truck itself in red and the boys in either black, grey or army painter green. Separately. I would also advise against washing everything and when you do wash water it down slightly to prevent surface pooling and then go over flat surfaces like rips of muscle with your base and highlight after washing, still leaving recesses washed. If it's still coming out shiny use a matte varnish spray but only after you're done everything and be sure to follow a video guide on how to use it. I would also suggest learning how to do rust by following a guide as well. Ork metal is never that clean and the red painted metal is never purely red. Every scratch mark especially on edges of metal is a nick and should be pure metal. My thought process is boyz don't repaint their vehicles. Once it's red, it's fast forever. They take a beating and they want their war scars to show. The model itself is awesome, you only need practice. If I were you I would strip it and try again or try on less of a centerpiece given where you live, what the model is made of and what stripping agents are available to you.
>>46049750
>>46049704
>>46049655
Also don't feel too bad, it's not terrible. I can see promise in you. The first models I painted were the old chaos space marine rhino and troop combo box. I didn't prime them and I tried painting them with black wash. I was young so it's excusable but as I've said it's not that bad.
>>46049750
thanks. i probably did the layers and highlights too heavy, and covered some of the recessed areas. i was wary of overdoing the weathering, but my logic for the bright silver was since it's a desert vehicle, and sandstorms scour rust, i read that under those conditions rust doesnt often build up.
i'll probably not strip it since it's still probably my best looking vehicle, but i might come back to it once i've done some other vehicles
>>46045619
Uh? When and where was that said?
Cus I heard that it sold more that the whole of AoS.
>>46047934
Isnt the Air line for airbrushes? sorry, I'm new to this and just started out.I just finished my 2nd mini, needs a few things but I'm having a lot of fun.
>>46050099
Some people prefer airbrush paints for hand brushing because the mix of consistency/coverage that's used for airbrush paint is also pretty good for hand brushing.
>>46049553

stripped off all the extra crap. my looted carnifex will just be a simple gun platform with a few orky gubbins on this. i might add a flag on a pole stuck into the back of the carnifex. what do you guys think?
for reference this is how i had it yesterday
>>46050457
It looks better, but I kind of miss the pile of lumber. The logs are a little long and awkward; maybe trim them down and make a smaller pile?
Renegade Wyvern, command vehicle. Renegade Guard allied detachment: The Apostates of Draghan.
>>46050529
i still have the lumber, i'm sure i could find osme way to unobtrusively add it back in. maybe one log strapped to another to make the flagpole, or just on the side of the tyranid proper as some kind of orky ablative armour
>>46050457
>>46050471
Cant tell which is shittier.
Just looks like a poorly assembled fex with some plasticard balancing on top.
>>46050592
You should probably deface the Aquila in the turret a bit more.
>>46049626
whats wrong with tamiya?
I have 2 metalic tamiya but I havet used them yet.
>>46050457
Platform is too thin and flimsy, front armour plate doesnt match or fit either the fex or the floooring.
>>46050762
I think many associate Tamiya and Humbrol with the glossy enamel garbage nearly every used lot online has been vandalised with.
>>46050592
>>46050603

>>46040786

>>46050785
it's literally all remaining after i ripped off lal the stuff in the picture below. i'm planning on making a cozier little platform
>>46050717
Got any advice? I was thinking on some blood streaks or something.
>>46050805
Any advice on where to put some weathering? I was planning to dirt the tracks up a bit.
>>46050816
Is it enamel paint?
What can strip enamal primer off of plastic?
>>46051004
The primer is splashy and I can see plastic underneath if that helps
>>46050941
no acrylic. I also have a tamiya acrylic paint thinner.
>>46050867
Look up warhammer tv's tutorial on battle damage and weathering. Their calendar serie also has a tutorial for scratches.
>>46051052
Then there should be no issue.
Some dislike tamiya because it's different in use from most miniature paints, the "big boy" paint for the serious painter, so it may take some effort to get good results.
So, this works pretty well as a faceplate. Just got the basic colours in.

Metal miniatures? No need to pull any punches, anon. You can get as tough as you want. It's only the plastic and resin models you have to worry about.
Goof Off will also eat cyanoacrylic glue, so there's that, too. I don't think you should expect your bases to survive it, though.

Why is Model Color better?
>>46048446
Thanks, I got it at WalMart of all places
>>46043251
noice, lovely job on eye. Skin could use some highlights tho.
>>46045241
her face looks like a Ducan's
I bought some imperial guard off kijiji and I'm trying to turn them into zombies for my nurgle army but they where already glued together so I'm trying to make the best of what I got.
I just don't know if they are coming out to brown I have a few little details but I think he's close to being done but I don't know if I like the brown armor

>her face looks like Duncan's
Sometimes our brains play tricks on us, and see patterns that aren't there, anon. She really looks nothing like Duncan.
>>46052906
besides this crappy mark on shoulderpad, it looks noice. Some blood on clothes and weapon, and it's tits.
>>46052898
>they're both white people
true
Does anyone here post their minis on a blog outside /tg/, like a blogspot or whatever? I like following mini blogs.

I once found a guy's NL by looking for NL HH conversion on Google image.
Help me, /wip/. I need a better storage system than a cardboard box.
I have plenty of battlefoam (I build my own trays, natch) but I've nothing to put the foam in.
What's the name for a box that opens from the top AND side, like a battlefoam case? I need to find one on the cheap/plans for one to build myself.
I'm hoping I won't need to build it myself. I play guard...I don't have any vices that big.
>>46052906
10/10, would purge. Preferably with artillery.
Looking forward to the finished piece.
Finished my first 12 gaunts yesterday
>>46053734
>first
You filthy liar. Those are way too good to be your first!
>>46053832
>You filthy liar. Those are way too good to be your first!
He didn't say Tyranids were his first army, anon, just that these were his first gaunts. Maybe he's honed his skillz paintin' dem no-good panzee Eldar!
>>46049553
For some reason the Smegmar legs look way better with that head. Maybe it's just the angle.
>>46054002
With that head on there it looks more like an anatomically correct person. The cow heads just destroy that
Painted up some terminators. I'm not super thrilled with how they came out. Satisfied, but I guess I'm not big on termies, maybe?
>>46053832
uh, no it's not my first models painted ever, it's just first models for my tyranid army.
>>46053856
Nah my other army is grey knights (pic related)

It's difficult to pull of blood stains to scale

Very. Especially when you're trying to get a direction of splatter
>>46048244
I like it. And it's not too huge to field.
>>46048256
If you're going to do a lot of vehicles I would invest in an airbrush. Actual cars are painted with airbrushes, why not little model ones?
>>46048334
the mario bros in tau form
>>46052906
I've read that you've bought them off kijiji about 5 times now and I don't think it has ever been relevant information.
iron hand, carcharadon, raven guard, flesh tearer.
haven't even finished basecoats for some sections, nor cleaned up.
i'm going to do them in a dark, john blanche kind of style.
gonna try free-handing some tribal carving onto the bone-kilt i made for the space shark later.
next wordbearer done
>>46056686
Black shoulders pads are needed mate, otherwise you'll end up with slightly darker BA.
>>46057103
amazing. what model is this anon?
I need help with something that's driving me absolutely mad. I bought the Black templars chapter upgrade kit and some weapons (flamer, plasma and melta gun) don't have any hand already attached to them and i can't find any arms on my tac marine sprue or the chapter upgrade sprue that fits with the special weapons. Am i retarded?
>>46057103
Smashing/10
Really love that blending on the kneepad, and the runes are very clean.
>>46045653
Link?
>>46057193
You should (hopefully) be able to find some arms/hands that have a weapon already attached that you aren't using. Then slice the weapon away from the hand carefully, cut the handle off the special weapon and glue them together.
Congratulations, you did a conversion.
>>46057236
Read the thread, dingus.
>>46057246
Why didn't i think of that?! Thank you thank you thank you!

I am selling my warhammer stuff, if anyone's interested. If not, then excuse me for posting my shit here.
>>46057472
Fuck off, you gaping anus.
Dire avenger WIP.
Next plan is two layers of highlights (valleo intermediate, then gauss flayers), skull white on the weapon. Details on the weapon with a soft brown. Then details in gems and metallics, etc. Need to try out some thing that have been posted here about getting the white helm to look good.
PURPLE WORM COMING THROUGH
>>46057583
Main body still needs to be painted brilliant purple, and the gums are going to be rose.
>>46057600
After that I'm thinking of a brilliant purple drybrush of the carapace, as well as some drybrushing of a lighter color on the base.
>>46057179

does he ever ask his mom if his dad was a white worm
>>46048432
Thank you, they are now named
>>46057103
Your painting is sex
Which techmarine kit is better, the metal or resin kit? I want to do some minor conversion with some BA bitz I have on hand.
The resin one seems really busy and I'm loathe to deal with finecast, but the metal one I probably wouldn't be able to convert very much.
>>46057692
Yes, every night just before he goes to sleep. And then his mom tells him"UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUYYYYYYYYYYIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONGHK"and he dreams sweet dreams of swallowing adventurers.
>>46057472
If that is still around in an hour I think I might.
And then I will hate myself for it. Backlog is fucking insane as it is
What's a decent solution for transporting minis over a long distance? I'm moving across the country, and using a moving service at that. Hopefully something cheap and simple, as I really don't need a dedicated transport box.
>>46057472
You would be better off listing separate what a cluster fuck
>>46057583
>that glossy, uneven purple basecoat
Enamel paints or just plain incompetence?
>>46058263
Just applied the first layer, so it's thin and wet. More to come, don't worry.
>>46058295
Test dry fit of a new, elite ganger. He kept making a bad Abaddon impression, so I slapped on some more blu-tac. He'll probably get a greenstuff hat, too.
After trying and failing to paint a certain model in my malifaux crew i've gotten so fed up i'm taking a break and trying Infinity (that and lots of people are playing it at my FLGS so i'm hopping on the bandwaggon).
I'd actually forgotten what it's like working with metal models.
just wondering what people think of the scheme so far because i'm just making this up as I go along.
Also you can't really see it too well in the picture but the model is wearing a loincloth and i'm really not sure what colour to do it that'll go with the teal and grey i've already got going on.
>>46058685
Oops, accidental quote.
>>46056686
I think eyes could do with looking more scowl-like.
Im stoked, my group just finished building our folding table. BEHOLD.
>>46059133
>>46059156
Noice dude, wish i had made mine foldable, now its a 7 by 4ft monster
