  1. TL;DR: build a 2k army, focus on an infantry base and optimize your purchases (Start collecting, second hand and easy to build) When starting an IG army you can never go wrong with infantry. If you don't mind the new shock troop models hinted/expected, I'd go through the second hand market or the 5 regular dude boxes. Rule of thumb: you'll be needing 1 Sargent (easy to convert with a head on the easy-to-build models) for every 9 foot soldiers. Getting a vox caster for every 10 guys is also a good practice. So you'd end with 8 dudes, 1 sarge and 1 voxcaster Normal size would be 60 guys: either 6 x 10 squads or use some for a 1 x 20 conscripts Heavy Weapons teams are usually useful also (have been for many editions) but can get expensive fast. What I did? built the weapon with no infantry attached to the base: leave the space so you can place 2 models next to the gun when you are playing the option. Hope it helps
  2. *** awakes from slumber *** Can I still enter the competition? Chaplain evolution...Power armour (maybe jump pack) -> terminator armor -> dreadnought
  3. Is it normal to hate you for your freehand skills? Absolutely insane! Maybe adding something in the back of the banner? SOMETHING, even if its only damage or scrapes or something :)
  4. Even with the tank order to select the D6 you want to RR and shooting twice... You'd expect 8D6 S4 shots to plow the rival. Mathhammer is a nasty mistress: 30ish shots vs marines yield a measly 2,5 wounds ( 4+ BS, 4+ to wound, 3+ save from marines) I usually opted for using Vigilus on the Basilisk: a lot more oomph :) Still, learning is part of the experience :)
  5. Today my heroes learned the consequences of underestimating hellblasters. In game 1 (Ultramarines with Guilliman and IK), I lost 2 tanks per turn. In game 2 (Dark Angels) I focused them with 2 basilisk, Wyvern, 3 LR, Plasma Pask and Gatling Tank comander...boy did I pound them to dust :) Wyvern quite underwhelming with S4 AP- :(
  6. I'll post pics later (if Elmo doesn't mind) of how I've magnetized mine...I agree on the wings and space optimization
  7. Awesome painting! Regarding Talon, I think that sword needs a tiiiiiiny bit mor eof work in the centre area...it looks like you did some airbrush pre-job and didn't finish it I like the sword though, I wonder what chapter you stole it from ;)
  8. Such spoiled spectators...honour the show with likes!! ;)
  9. Nice mate! The energy crackling on the power fist though...I think the "spill" to the top of the fist ( knuckles so to say) is a bit over the top (no pun intended). The fingers might have been enough...just my 0,02€
  10. Not happy with putting us to shame with your brushing skills, now you actually do a walk through the GS+bits part and make us feel "fools" for just building the darn models... SHAME ON YOU! :P
  11. 3h to pump out that quality has to be the best ratio effort/result EBAH! I also use AB and vallejo gold...and it certainly took me WAY more to do the Hellbrute in my signature...specially the gold part. Congrats on a really stream lined method ;)
  12. Did you seriously paint that model in 24h? I'm speechless! Really sweet gold (I can't tell if its some Vallejo Gold or f its actually NMM!) and the armour is a prime example of layering: congratulations!
  13. Thanks for the tips mate That's quite a backlog you got there...stop slacking :P
