Combined Stormcast (The one that comes with the Getting Started book) / Bretonnian Knight I've been working on.
Going to use him as a Paladin when fielding the Brets, but I'm not sure what stormcast Hero/Lord I want him to be.
Still working on turning those antlers into Horns and cleaning up the mold lines and all that, but I'm happy how he turned out. The sword is made from cutting the sword at the guard and attaching it to the hilt of the SC's hammer. The banner has also been cut in half and reattached at both sides of the shield grip, which has itself been sanded down with a Bretonnian crest attached. Also used a small cylinder of sprue to make a neck for him.
Parker Foster
So order is still trampling, right?
Carter Watson
So basically, all the fluff that's been published in AoS that is not about Chaos or Stormcast has been pretty good?
Landon Foster
This is the ending of the Lord of Undeath novel.
Boy did we misjudge Nagash. We really did him injustice.
Ethan Walker
What's a decent way to go about building a vampire themed matched play list then? I'm a big fan of Varghulfs and Vargheists, and kinda like the idea of converting up a Vampire Lord who fits that theme too? Vampires who revel in their curse, kinda?
Aaron Stewart
What's the short greentext version?
Cameron Diaz
Taking dire wolf heads and converting them onto vargiests/horrors may get you a more animalistic look akin to the vargulf. It's what I did for my Flesh Eater Courts dudes. Sadly, the vargulf isn't a Soulblight model anymore.
Oliver Allen
what ever happens to bran stark and his wonderful kickass account?
Joshua Harris
According to the guys in 40K general, some dude over at either Dakka or Whineseer complained that take the uploads of other people and putting him in his account to get all the adulation and credit for himself. Started a real shitstorm.
The user decided to quit and move on. It wasn't worth the drama and harassment.
Julian Roberts
that he takes*
Dylan Nelson
making Bretcasts as well soon, just need some sweet color schemes and add some extra clothing on the armor
Andrew Flores
Okay, but like list composition type ideas.
Plus, I can still take a Varghulf if I have generic death battleline, right? Some skeletons or something?
Ian King
>Nagash is trying to act like big king shit. >Mannfred is smug. >Nagash realizes he's been trolled by Sigmar.
Matthew Russell
...well shit...anywhere I can find the rest of the beast rises series of books?
Aiden Flores
Man, people will do autistic as fuck things for a little bit of attention.
Kayden Jackson
Isn't that what happens all the time?
Nathaniel Walker
Mannfredo normally isn't allowed to act smug around Nagash, this is a big step forward for Mannfredo.
I know you're here photoshop-user. Congrats, you fucking made it, you got a bunch of idiots believe this garbage is real.
Isaac Bell
the circle of people that were sharing the files he was part of no longer supported bran as he supposedly stopped contributing first hand to buying the books, risked by uploading files with tracking codes and because leechers have been licking bran's ass instead of those other person none knew a shit about and got rustled.
also kat torrents as a whole has been brought down.
Oliver Richardson
Honestly things have gone so far downhill that it'd be easier to just let Nagash rule.
Adam Myers
shut up, arkhan; you can be better than this.
Anthony Gonzalez
He was taking his books from a thread on tehparadox. The thread got nuked. No thread no bran.
Grayson Evans
No.
Jayden Price
Tries to starscream his way to victory in the entimes, gets smashed by chaos. Not likley to even be successful in triumphing over sigmar OR chaos in the long run.
Caleb Gray
I'm pretty sure he was taking AoS stuff from here, in my experience it gets uploaded here then Bran uploaded it Unless there's another place where stuff gets uploaded
Jaxson Hall
So I'm trying to work on a seraphon army where the slann leading them dreams not just of the past, but what the future could be when they win, following in the footsteps of the old ones to seed world with life to fill the gaps that chaos had left.
Stuff like archeoptryx griffons, plumed wyverns, feathered raptors simply called warm bloods, ect.
Any extra ideas are welcome, I'm trying to think if any tweeks to the lizards themselves
Ryan Sullivan
yes
just do it
Dominic Jackson
And if he's in charge, there's nobody left to Starscream!
Dylan Robinson
Calling it, Neferata is going to defect to Sigmar's side Then we'll have two waifus
Evan Evans
Excellent. Everything is coming our way.
Cameron Miller
>Nagash remakes a black pyramid to end all black pyramids >can claim the souls of anyone who tastes death (including those whose souls belong to Chaos and Sigmar) >Needs time to set up his full plan >manipulated Stormcast to believing that Mannfred went rogue, but he has been following orders the whole time >Will delay Sigmar's victory at all points so it remains a stalemate >Plays on Sigmar's hope so he doesn't feel betrayed >learns that the stormcast are brainwashed into serving Sigmar during reforging and what they believed in during life was replaced.
My guess is he wants to know more about how Siggy manipulated the souls he took so he can start doing the same with his mega pyramid (maybe even claim Archaons soul and use him as a weapon)
Kayden Sullivan
Chaos warriors are full of candy.
Michael Morris
Fuck off
Aaron Martin
Maybe add some iceage animals: Mammoths, Saber Tooths, stuff like that.
Kayden Sullivan
Well shit, piƱata party at Khorne's place!
Kayden Johnson
So Nagash was just pretending to be retarded?
Luke Reed
With Slaanesh possibly being subservient to the elves of Ulgu and Hysh that give us three waifus for Order. Life is good when you're righteous.
Asher Miller
Now I want to eat Chaos Warriors.
Carter Watson
Ahh so imagine moving past the dinosaurs, hmm not a bad idea, for me I was kinda leaning to more modern depictions of dinosaurs in contrast to the more classic look they have here, but a good mammoth would make a kick ass stegadon stand in, maybe with a bit of the glyptodon's armor and club tail
Angel Hall
The idea that it's not the Daemons who are really in charge is infectious nonsense spilling in from 40k.
Space marines being able to pretend they weren't subordinate to their daemonic masters was bad enough, and now you have Derrick doing it too.
Gabriel King
DAMN!
I didn't see that coming. I thought it was just lol so random Nagash.
Sebastian Perez
WHO ELSE BUT NAGASH?!!?
Asher Price
Now that's the Nagash I used to know. The setting just got better.
Lucas Taylor
>>learns that the stormcast are brainwashed into serving Sigmar during reforging and what they believed in during life was replaced.
not all stormcasts, just the ones he plucks from places that are not sigmar friendly
Ryan Carter
in the fluff sunbloods are suggested to be maybe a sort of evolution of the sauri, whit it being based on good ol gor-rok and playing a bit with the colours of stars in their late stages of life you could give your lizards mainly albino colorations (it would give you more chromatic freedom to be eccentric on the feathers instead)
you could also introduce rejuvenated old ones tech in place of more savage weapons, stuff like golden plates having illuminated incisions that look like circuits or repurposed necron bits for weapons and decorations (the orbs in many necron models could look awesome if painted as if they reflected galaxies, worlds, constellations and stuff)
in the end if you want to play more with the "reborn empire theme" I would suggest looking for frogmen models to have relatively young new generations of slann reminiscent of the slann back when lizardmen actually weren't an army in oldhammer and rogue trader; diehard miniatures has made some nice looking ones if I recall correctly.
Gavin Gonzalez
I see, I could have a slann manning the bigger weapons on the mounted beasts, definally an engine of the gods, I need a cheap source of feathers that's for sure
Jonathan Brooks
Nah, it's more nuanced. You're literally arguing for a one-dimensional villain who would proclaim 'I fight for the dark gods' as deep as it gets.
James James
Learn to make a greenstuff pressmold.
Levi Scott
is this real guys?
Colton Sanchez
Are Kurnoth Hunters really that strong? Enough to take 4 units of them at 2k?
t. Dino Ranger
Christian Hughes
no that is piss poor font matching
Asher Martinez
...
Dominic Miller
hundred percent real ,my dad works at GW
Gavin Hernandez
I want to believe.
Brandon Long
Nope. The artwork is way too crude and not crisp looking enough to be box art.
John Young
you can start learning how to do fur with greenstuff and then painting it as small plumes, but mainly you will want to do this
Jason Edwards
Oh that looks kick ass, i'll want to remember that one for if I want a more hands on style slann, so while a press mold sounds good which kit will offer the best diversity of feather arrangements to make molds of? I do have budget to consider so alot of this will be a long time coming
Jaxson Ortiz
I bought something a few years ago called a Magic Mold. It was cheap, but also very easy to make casts with and it can be reused by heating it in hot water. I would recomend it.
Benjamin Evans
I wish. Tzeentch Arcanites needs some love.
Alexander Rogers
Sigmar is heaven Tyrion is light Nagash is death Malekith is shadow Gorkamorka is beast Anarielle is life Who are the last two?
Camden Roberts
The guy who made it said himself it was fake. I can't believe a bunch of idiots are losing their minds over it, it's all over BOLS and forums.
Levi Gray
Metal and fire? Probably Grungni and Grimnir.
Julian James
>idiots >BOLS
Solved that mystery.
Jack Murphy
Grungi as Metal and Grimnir as Fire? Total guess, but it's a logical guess
Dominic Garcia
Return of Slaanesh when? Chaos is a joke without him and it needs to be made great again.
Nathaniel Myers
So
Why do all the Fyreslayer models look near as damnit identical?
Jackson Morris
What artefacts are the best for a Beastlord with a shield and axe? I was thinking about taking the daemon weapon and the Lord of War trait. AFAIK he can use Lord of War on himself, which would make him hit on 2's and wound on 3's, with re-rolling wounds against Heroes.
Blake Walker
Oh yeah, now that you mention it it sounds logical. I had forgotten all about dwarves :^) tfw dirty stinking dwarves get two incarnations while pure and innocent HE get 1, life is unfair
Blake Martin
Do Beastlords and Bray Shamans benefit from the Furious Brayherd formation if they are within 8" of each other??
Luis Reyes
Duradin are the black guys of the setting?
Jacob Morgan
>3 flavors of elves >gets mad when 2 flavors of dorfs (3 w/chaos)
Standard elf privledge right there. I'm so glad high elves aren't a thing any more. I saw them like every other game in 8th. Wow 4 bolt throwers, teclis and a horde of 50 spearmen? Nice original list dude!
Thomas Johnson
Yup. Really pissed they didn't get an SC (and I play skaven). Why the actual fuck did sigmar ones and bloodhound get them???
Kayden Ross
Probably after all the Tzeentch stuff that's been heavily hinted at
David Campbell
Like I said from old threads, SC sets are to help move old models and get new people in. There are no new models with fyreslayers and they are the only one without a SC.
Zachary Jones
my WIP Weirdnob, great model, I shouldn't paint during the summer, headaches everywhere
Jace Nguyen
Oh yeah, a SC boxnwould make them more appealing.
Jacob Evans
Stormcast, Ironjawz, and Bloodbound are old models???
Thomas Jones
Ironjaws black orcs/ardboys and bloodbound skullcrushers are old.
Stormcast has 2 retributers to go with the starter set and prosecuters are notoriously not the best unit.
They're meant to sell stuff that won't sell as well otherwise. Not for people to wishlist their fantasy discounts because they're poor.
Jace King
For the tech angle the hurricanium kit has good parts, and if the steam heads kits are predicted right those will be perfect
Carter Clark
I don't know, the Flesh-Eater Courts one is full of things you'd want. I think the SC are also intended to be an incentive to buy big kits, as lots of them have one. But yeah, they're not whishlists, that's for sure.
Brayden Reyes
to red Orruk guy: They look solid, but you can maybe get the tattoos to look more tattoo like by mixing it with a little of your base color from the skin. That's how it works for normal skin anyways. Otherwise I'd roughen up the edges a little to make it look more like war paint.
Daniel Moore
>those eyes hnnnng - Jealous senpai
David Nguyen
But they're all old models in that one. Someone may be on the fence about starting the army since the minis aren't shiny new, but then see the SC box and go "well that's a nice deal I'll pick those up!" then buy more full priced kits to finish off the army.
I can't tell if people just ironically say senpai or don't know the text change of Veeky Forums and say senpai.
Ayden Rivera
I hope they bring back Necrarch style vampires that gets to use fleshgolems and lots of zombies.
Cameron Richardson
Anyone have any good conversions for Stormcasts? I've heard they look pretty good if you paint them metal/gray and give them knight helmets.
Samuel Jones
Samurai helmet and naginatas.
Jeremiah Moore
Green stuff boob plate.
Jose Gray
Someone did a Dark Souls paint scheme that looked amazing. Trying to find a pic.
Mason Allen
stormcasts can be converted to a lot of things
Bentley Diaz
WIP of my tiny little treeple army so far. Almost done with my Kurnoths, just gotta wait for some glue to dry on their buggy buddies and do the last two bases.
Nathaniel Cruz
that's some nice tree tits
Xavier Wood
Now THAT is awesome!
Benjamin Rodriguez
So I tried AoS again, and it's a bit more fun now then it was a year ago.
My Nurgle daemons are fun enough to play, but I was wondering what night goblins are like? I've heard htey can be deadly in groups, but I'm more concerned about if their wacky antics are still intact. Are mangler squigs still absolute carnage (for both armies)? Are night goblin shamans still able to pull off crazy bullshit? Do fanatics still make a thin paste out of whatever unit they ram into?
Aaron Gray
It looks fucking good.
Jeremiah Brooks
Breddy guud!
Nathan Price
fanatics and mangler squigs are still pretty much the same and moonclan grot shamans have one of the best spells in the game
Adrian Morales
...
Camden Cook
nice job it actually looks like it came with tats but i feel like the hair could be a different color like a light purple or something
