Warhammer 40k

3896 readers
9 users here now

A community dedicated to the universe of Warhammer 40k, a tabletop setting in the far, distant future.

This is a general community for 40k miniatures, art, lore discussion, and gameplay discussion.

Rules

  1. Keep it civil.
  2. No memeposts/shitposts. Memes are great but direct them to grimdank.
  3. Please mark any posts containing realistic nudity or realistic excessive gore/violence as NSFW; this rule mainly applies to cosplay and realistic drawings rather than miniatures. Being that 40k is inherently violent, this is a judgement call, and mods may occasionally request posters add tags.
  4. No political or social cause agenda pushing.

Some other channels worth mentioning: Mediocre Hobbies Darcy Bono

I'm doing more Tyranids this week (batch 2 from Leviathan): And this big guy if I need a pallette cleanser:

Those nids took a real presentation jump when you added the fleshy color.

Darcy Bono added, the value of the channel was immediately apparent. I'll watch some of the Medicore Hobbies videos soon to decide, the thumbnails look somewhat clickbaity but I know sometimes creators just have to do that.

I don't know if it's the app I'm using for Lemmy (Jerboa) or my phone, but photos I attach keep getting rotated weirdly.

I'm finally finishing the resplendent Magnus the Red, who I picked up in the Court of the Crimson King battleforce box in December. Just a couple of pieces of armour to paint, plus his glaive.

And I've found a use for the Librarian from the Leviathan box. I've drilled out his eyes and mouth, and I'm going to mostly douse him in bright blue and pink contrast paints to represent Magnus's Tzeentchy magic.

The leftover parts from the librarian are going into this sorcerer in terminator armour. He's my first real attempt at kitbashing, complete with an inferno combi-weapon (a bolt pistol and warpflame pistol chopped up and mashed together) and greenstuff cape.
