@sonicsledgehammer.bsky.social hi, I was wondering if you were planning anything with warhammer tone pro? I’m running low on marine juice so wondering if new shading medium would be an improvement over lahmian, havent seen comparisons yet. Public demo of the paint is delayed to October here in Japan

Wanted to try @mediocrehobbies.bsky.social rusty metal technique on a bigger guy so grabbed a Nob, I love it so much! Makes painting #Orks a breeze! Now I want to use it for Chaos Knights… and Iron Warriors too… (maybe even Deathguard??) #warhammer #nerdlings #paintslam26 youtu.be/9NiszkCo-hg

Based on prize values, a champ calculated new #warhammer tone pro colours will be around £4.13 (vs £3.70 base/layer, £4.75 contrast/shade). I can’t access most western brands in Japan so if these paints really cover well I’ll pick a handful up for sure #minipainting www.reddit.com/r/Warhammer4...

Got distracted from painting yet again but finally working through my Armageddon box, first time painting #Orks since 2nd edition, took a while since I was trying out lots of new things but happy with my meagre results so far 😌 #warhammercommunity #paintslam26 #minipainting #nerdlings #warhammer

Persevered through the first typhoon of the year to buy #warhammer40k combat patrol for the dark gods 😌 2748 yen vs 9300 yen retail for a five man Chaos Terminator squad. Now do I paint them as a second Red Corsairs squad or do I finally give in to painting a small Iron Warriors Warband…

WTF is up with Games Workshop recently?? The last two boxes I’ve gotten, the transfer sheet is ON TOP of the protective sheet! My custodes transfers were scratched & damaged, got a replacement sheet through my FLGS. Now my Knights box came with the same problem! Billion dollar company… #warhammer40k

A very different kind of Citadel Miniatures space ship: the USS Grissom. The vessel was just one of several starships that were released by Citadel in the mid-80s. The sculpts, and the Star Trek Roleplaying game they were designed for, were licenced from FASA for casting & release in the UK.

3 years after backing “The damned” on kickstarter, they finally arrived… is it normal for Wargames Atlantic to ship sprues naked in a box? Thankfully only one piece seems to have broken off and fallen to the bottom of the box… honestly I don’t even like the designs anymore & totally regret it lol 😭

I wanted free time in February to paint but life got in the way, glad I could get back to it with my first handful of Warhammer 40K Red Corsairs (Legionaries kit) and Thousand Sons Scarab Occult Terminators. I think hopping between different kits & schemes helps keep my attention longer #Paintslam26
Warhammer 40,000 Chaos Space Marines painted as Red Corsairs. (Lots more in the pile to go, not a proper squad yet) Warhammer 40,000 Thousand Sons Scarab Occult Terminators painted in ghost-y schemes because nobody has time for all that gold trim

Very worried about new Warhammer book app. Afaik the current site is the only source of epub books, so you can buy it to use on iPhone, kindle etc. Now you’ll be forced into closed ecosystems (app only etc) so have to trust the website will always work. www.warhammer-community.com/en-gb/articl...

Just finished listening to Mephiston: City of Light, wrapping up my several year long “listen to Blood Angels books while going on a walk” adventure. Feeling a bit sad now, I really enjoyed listening to Dante & Mephiston on my long walks. This is my recommended reading order for anyone interested:
Blood Angels recommended reading order

1. Dante
2. Mephiston: Blood of Sanguinius
3. Devastation of Baal 
4. Astorath: Angel of Mercy
5. Mephiston: Revenant Crusade
6. Darkness in the Blood
7. Mephiston: City of Light

Trying to get motivated this year by dipping a toe into the #paintslam26 pond. 1st minis of the year, the wolves from Space Wolves Headtakers set (ok I started them 12/30🤫) & 4/7 of Strike Force Justian who have been waiting for paint for a few years. (Will finish them properly when I do the others)

@peachytips.bsky.social with Huron Blackheart getting a new model I went looking for red corsairs painting videos again, and found to my horror that your red corsairs painting video on the official Warhammer channel is gone 😔 they did the same to Duncan’s knight videos when the new knights came out…

A new female Warhammer fan posted on Reddit asking if it’s ok to put female heads on space marines, got a ton of hate comments that it’s against the lore and to stop forcing their tourist changes on a hobby. I wonder if the same ppl will call this person a tourist for their awesome dog marine too 🤔

Bad lighting & it’s awkwardly long so hard to photograph but finally finished painting the Horus Heresy Age of Darkness Spartan. Slowly adding to my Salamanders force. Not weathered or varnished yet, trying to decide if I’ll base it after falling in love with Nick Bayton’s Land Raider on a base…

I’m fine with characters dying, but it’s weird to kill off dudes from a video game in a news article for a tabletop game. There are going to be SO MANY casual Space Marine fans baffled when they load SM3 and don’t see them. Imagine if Chewbacca had died between Star Wars films in an RPG rulebook

Got some kickstarter rewards in. New Guinea Campaign Vol. 1 - Australian Infantry and United Empire- Human Auxiliaries. So far happy with both, the Aux had a couple of broken guns but superglue fixed that. I’ll paint the Aussies as a present for my dad and I just liked the Aux as truescale humies

Was gonna ignore Warhammer Heroes series 6 cause box doesn’t guarantee all the models like previous space marine heroes boxes did, but then found on Reddit people reported the unique codes, and was able to find all but the sergeant. Will paint as my custom chapter (&ordered the sarg from a reseller)

Instead of doing the sensible thing & working on my 30K Salamanders I decided to try painting some Thousand Sons using a ghost scheme I saw on Reddit. Really happy with the results, except the Mordant Earth didn’t really work, I guess I need to put it on thicker. Oops. (My first try with it)

New Sicarius is fine, looks good. BUT NEW CALGAR? WHY? Absolutely ridiculous. GW actively killing off other big name character models but releases a SECOND Primaris Calgar? I only got him last year from Imperium magazine! No wonder people are flocking to 3D printing, GW has completely lost the plot.

Calling the first half of my first Horus Heresy Salamanders tactical squad done apart from varnishing, happy with my first try but learnt a lot about the MK6 armour. Surprised I had no trouble with the tiny transfers on the legs lol. The base is orange to match my Legions Imperialis Salamander army.

Finally finished my first Warhammer 40K Space Wolves minis, a squad of Blood Claws. Life & video games kept getting in the way but I’m glad they’re done, my least worst paint job yet, happy with how they turned out. Drybrushing highlights+ marine juice+ contrast paint faces did the heavy lifting
A squad of Warhammer 40K Space Wolves Blood Claws. 

Painting steps something like:

1. Prime grey
2. Heavy drybrush Russ grey
3. Light drybrush fenrisian grey
4. Black bits, metal bits 
5. Dark brown ropes, belt, pouch
6. Skeleton horde on the wolf claws 
7. Averland sunset yellow shoulders with light flash gitz yellow on top
8. Transfers 
9. Marine juice wash

Looks like minipainting has to do without Vallejo paints. First they ignore worker's right and safety in their factory, begrudgingly let them have a few fixes and now they blatantly use Generated Images as their selling point. If you can't support artists I can't support you.

Gundam Assemble isn’t out till 2026 so I was surprised to see on r/Battletech that the minis have been released via the card game! I didn’t realise since they’re sold in the card game section, not the hobby section in Japan. Picked up two today, will get the others later. The plastic feels gunpla-y
