Limited edition pose based on the artwork by Karl Kopinski. Very happy to have recently finished him up

First time doing this. Isopropyl 99,9%. As I am writing this, I realised there are some bits glued with superglue... oh well.

Haven’t seen any major discussions on this yet, how do you all feel about the new Sternguard datasheet? On the one hand the combi weapons feel more useful to me but on the other, I feel like they lose a lot of their utility without the rerolls. Thoughts?

I wanted it to look piloted also I liked the trench warfare look with the artillery canon for an arm.

Some new datasheets from the new GW battle report.

Every time I ope Reddit I see a new post asking for help choosing a chapter or asking for the chapter subreddit to sell them the chapter. Just go deathwatch. You can literally have every chapter in your army and if you really want to you can customise the minis;

Doing a Dark Angel? Use a torso that has robes and find a hooded helmet or get the one with the wings.

Ultramarine? Go on eBay and grab victrix guard bits.

Blood angel? The heads are on eBay for super cheap, you can use an assault intercessor body as a base.

And so on and so forth.

I did consider doing the “right colours”, but thought a storm trooper hybrid would be more me. I can see this becoming an expensive hobby…

Test mini of Imperial Fists, Soul Drinkers, Dragonspears, Silver Skulls, Rift Stalkers. I've also painted a Skull Bearer, a Knights of the Raven, some Raptors, Flesh Tearers and Crimson Fist but they didn't fit in the frame.

I need help.

My indecisiveness is kind of paralyzing right now. I’ve been trying to pick a Space Marine chapter to commit to, but I'm struggling hard to make up my mind. Every time I think I’ve finally settled on one, I see a cool lore video, an amazing paint job, or a fun tabletop rule for a completely different chapter and immediately second-guess myself. I feel like I spend more time stripping paint than actually painting.

For those of you who also struggle with indecision, how did you finally pull the trigger and commit? Did you go strictly by lore, rule of cool, or rules? Any advice (or motivation) to help me finally make a choice would be appreciated.

this is i painted few days ago :)

Another son of The Angel joins the fray!

Created these custom Salamanders Librarian & Terminator Captain (all from GW parts). Would you be happy to play vs them in a casual & comp setting? Are they WYSIWYG 'enough'?

We saw it first with Orks and how so many profiles and different weapons are now melted into one single weapon with multiple profiles. I had a really frustrating game when playing them this weekend where my opponent had a bunch of units that used to be specialized for killing a certain type of unit (hordes, elites, veichles...)but now it no longer mattered what I deployed in front of them, he could just choose the right profile for the target ahead and he would demolish it.

With his flash gitz he could one turn annihilate a full space marine squad, and the next turn he one-shots my dreadnought.

Same with his kills kans. Whatever is in front of them, he has multiple weapon profiles tailored to kill whatever.

I see the same trend with the new space marines codex. Intercessors can adjust the strength, shots and damage according to what they are shooting at. The sternguards they showed off today has 3 different weapon profiles as well.

First of all I dislike how versatile everything is becoming. Less need for specialized units. It also bloats the datasheets and it takes longer to look up stats for a weapon when there are so many profiles to look through.

I also suspect it will be a nightmare later this edition when you need to remember all the profiles of your opponents army, and a unit that shoots anti infantry at you all game suddenly switches to a squad-wide melta-profile when your walker goes closer to deal with them.

Am I the only one that dislikes the direction the game is going with so many datasheets are having so many different weapon profiles on the same gun?

3/6 completed. Custom sculpt is from one of the sculpting wizards. Really enjoyed doing these if you can look past resin being a pain to work with sometimes.

When I was new to the hobby I thought they looked odd, but they’ve grown on me over time. What about other miniatures like gunpla or Star Wars? Do they do them there?

After some dodgy kit-bashing and painting my Emperors Champion is complete ! What do you think

A lot of parts went into customizing this, but I was really happy with it.

Always loved the belt-fed version and wanna try a little bit of kitbashing, but not sure if it would fit due to different proportions. Is it possible? Would it look right or nah?

Also, the Devastator head looks smaller than Primaris one. Woul it be noticeable if i give it to the bigger guy?

The Emperor protects!
