I'm thinking about getting the SC! Skitarii box, but I've read through the codex, and well, I don't really want to do red. I have an idea in mind, so I quickly painted up pic related just to see how it would look. Obviously it would need edge highlights still, but I think it looks pretty good for a test piece. What does Veeky Forums think?
Tyler Jones
Just came down with the flu. Working through the sick to get my Chaos dudes done.
Adrian Cruz
Failed to finish this model within a week of purchase like I challenged myself to, because I ended up playing Torment all day on Monday and now I'm back in work until Friday. Gonna try and have it done tonight
William Hughes
I think it would look good, i think someone posted a similar skitarii scheme on an ice base in the last thread.
Blake Myers
Not bad, at least no in my opinion. Have you looked at the other color schemes or considered your own, or are you dead set on the white. Having done a White army myself I can honestly say it's a pain in the ass.
David Edwards
And the main body so far
William Gray
It's very nice, but it's very bright. Not that there is anything wrong with that if that's what you are going for, it just looks a little artificial and toy like to me personally.
Wyatt Howard
It looks a bit washed out in the picture, but it's actually Screaming Skull.
Henry Gomez
Going to get a squad of HH Marines to do in a batch. This is my first time doing partials. What should I leave unassembled? They're MKIV if it matters.
Carter Butler
Artificial I'll take as a positive what with it being a daemon engine. Toy like isn't what I was aiming for though, was going for glassy looking
Blake Ross
Backpack and bolter arm+pauldron+weapon
Dominic Davis
How do I go about painting/gluing the arms afterwards?
Jose Bell
some guy here has already done an arctic camo skitarii, it looks fantastic
Lucas Gray
Pic related works for me. For gluing you can either scrape off the paint/ primer and use plastic cement or simply super glue.
Also, if you have bare heads among your dudes, you might want to paint them separately too.
Wyatt Bell
That makes it look simple enough.
Zachary Reed
I'm not painting my bases, natural rocks look a shit load better than the terrible bases you linked
Lincoln Flores

Robert Hall
Love the demonprince
William Peterson
3 of my Death Guard Destroyers. Pretty much done (minus basing)
Oliver Turner
A bit too much on the helmet grills. Stop feeding the middle guy all that phospex, it isn't goo for him.
Connor Bennett
I bet death guard don't get asked to parade very often.
Aaron Williams

Brandon Brooks
Apply some agrax over the red and gold and than highlight it a bit, should give it a more weathered and less toyish look
James Bell
Looks properly agitated
Hudson Lopez
Gruesome.
Aiden Garcia
Mr. Skeltal evidently started lifting.
Nicholas Reed
I thought so too.
With milk anything is possible.
Noah Morris

Henry Rogers
the game any good?
Robert Perez
The red is spiritstone over brass scorpion, what would I even use to highlight that?
Ayden Hill
Swamp Devil and Picts from the Conan boardgame by Monolith.
No idea. I havn't gotten around to play it.
Brody Rivera
...
Jayden Taylor
You would have pre-highlighted with silver before the spiritstone.
Tyler Jackson
Ah bugger. Forgive me if I don't go back and redo the whole thing
Adam Baker
Similarly you would want to preshade. I'll drop the FW knight candying tutorial for reference.

I did preshade but may have gone overboard with the drybrush afterwards.
I'll give this a read. Really it was only something I decided to try on the spot
Julian Myers

Easton Cook
Goddamn dude, seeing how good these are is seriously demoralizing.
Asher Edwards
Alright you fucking nerds whom do sisters conversion. I need to know if the immolator kit sold on GW's website has a plastic turret sprue with the SOB helmet on there. If it is, I can justify the purchase of it for the head because I can get an extra rhino out of it. If it's not in there, I won't buy.
Josiah Williams
I'm back, lol.
Julian Ward
Not to be funny, but I feel like I've seen these every single hhg and wip recently. They are dope, but we don't need to see them at every stage.
Cooper White
Well, it's a good idea. If I was shooting at it, I'd aim at the cunt in the tower first rather than the head.
Oliver Murphy
My Imperial Guard are arctic camo, so I was going for something different, yet with some similarity with the Skitarii.
Elijah Murphy
It's a shame that LOTR is dead.
Ian Mitchell
The guy is one of ADB's close friend, he's been going at thi army for quite some time, I remember a blogpost from ADB fawning over these beautifully painted models ages ago.
Grayson Jenkins
My city(more like "extremely big village") still have 5-6 active players.
Nicholas James
Why does the guy at the top look a bit heretic to me ?
Adam Gonzalez
Pretty sure he's a Fallen Angel.
Ryan Thompson
i love how gritty these are. bet they look great on the table.
Samuel Cruz
Im stilling some tanks with Purple Power, Let it soak so far for 12 hours and all of the paint is off, expect for the primer. I used the GW chaos black spray, and I heard it stains primer. Should I let soak for another 24 hours and try again? And if the primer wont come off, should I: paint right over the primer that wont come off? prime over the primer that wont come off and then paint?
Hudson Diaz
So heretic ?
Ian Fisher
...
Wyatt Allen
Looks like meat's back on the menu!
Michael Richardson
A JOB WELL DONE
Jonathan Carter
Can I just use Abaddon black to brush on a mini to use in place of spray on primer in a pinch?
Nathan Jones
The Fallen are the most loyal of all Dangles... The Lion will say so once he comes back!
Caleb Morales
That's what a heretic would say
Henry Taylor
>Can I just use Abaddon black to brush on a mini to use in place of spray on primer in a pinch?
Base paints don't have the same properties as a primer. You can try this, but if you have any discerning taste at all, you're going to be disappointed with the outcome.
Justin Walker
At the risk of your paint peeling off. Abaddon Black from a pot isn't a primer, it's normal paint. It's not going to stick to the plastic nearly as well as a brush on primer would, and would be at risk of being damaged quite easily.
Jonathan Foster
Bump. I got an idea for the canonness I wanna convert for my friend, but I need to confirm.
Charles Wood
I believe it should. I'm still waiting on my own Immolator, but a guy at my store has one assembled but not painted that he showed me. Plastic, and the sister sitting in the turret did indeed have a helmet.
Brody Long
So here is an update on my scratch built taurox. I can't decide though if the bed should have a step profile from side to side(-_-) or flat(---). Any thoughts?
Dylan Sanders
Where did you get the wheels?
Eli Campbell
They were off of a 1/35th scale puma scout car I hacked up.
Juan Hernandez
>have the front plate of a rhino lying around
where the fuck do people get these bits?
Jordan Parker
So step sides in the bed or should it be flat?
Hudson Powell
I found it in a flgs bits bin. So idk who gave it up. I also have like 5 rhino doors.
Robert Morales
I also got these skittle shock sticks from a friend but I don't know what to do with them. I was thinking of making some rough riders with them but I am not sure though. I like to scavenge whenever possible. Hell most of my plasma guardsmen use astartes guns.
Luke Sullivan
Anybody here make any sort of miniatures from clay? Here's something I've been working on for one of my players.
>tfw have no idea what the hell I'm doing
Jayden Ortiz
You think it would be possible to graft those onto an actual taurox hull?
Jace Lewis
Other than the nipple holes i think that is awesome. Most I do is some greenstuff though.
Colton Martinez
Moldlines aside, how do you feel about my boring warrior?
Jaxson Murphy
Does anyone know where to find stencils that are fine enough to work on small models? Specifically raindrops to airbrush onto my Blood Angel rhinos.
Caleb Myers
generic/10
Looks nice enough I guess, don't have any particular feelings about it
Lucas Perez
Nice and rusty. Maybe some light in the eyes to add some life
Justin Green
The mini is well done but the base is pretty lame.
Nathan Long
yep, he's an iron warrior
Being functional but boring is a bolter marine's job, so he passes with flying colours.
Colton Collins
Probably, I bought that puma model to convert into a Valkyrie (delayed until I'm not a scrub) for 15 dollars. So I figured I need to use it on something.
Ian Rogers
yes, I was trying to get a sand desert effect, but I think Im no even close to pic related.
Hudson King
he looks nice. maybe put some highlights somewhere on it
Ayden King
Working on my Lootas, these are super fun to paint.
Adrian Lewis
I love Lootas. I almost want to get some just to paint, but I have to actually finish my first army
Aiden Smith
Do I put the waxy side down or up for a wet palette
Adam Howard
Oi git! Whoz dat dreadnaughtmon?
Angel Harris
Iz Triple-kan, into da foight!

Aaron Barnes
How big are the Sigmarine's bigass shields? Could an Ironjawz Megaboss comfortably hold one to convert him into a Black Orruk Big Boss?
Logan Phillips
This is simultaneously one of the stupidest and most genuinely orky things I have ever seen.
Juan Rogers
A weapon to surpass metal gear
Carter Wood
I don't know if I like or hate it. The Tartaros Termie reminds me of Squidward in his impenetrable snow fort while the Chaplain looks off in someway I can't put my finger on.
