Greetings to you all! I have for many a year been plucking away in the WIP thread, but as most of the things I put there are actually finished by the time I post, I thought it a bit more apt to have a thread here as well - and as there is not far from though to action, thus it is done now. The aim of this thread is for me to post pictures of the various B&C permissable armies that I usually work on and the units belonging to them, which I finish. Currently, I have the following armies in my possession: Dark Angels (1st, 2nd and Battle Company) - about 5000 points total Chaos Space Marines (Death Guard, World Eaters, Black Legion & Fallen Angels) - about 4500 points Chaos Daemons (Tzeentch, Nurgle & Khorne) - about 3000 points Imperial Guard allies (Death Korps of Krieg) - about 400 points Grey Knight allies - about 400 points Tyranids - about 8000 points As you can see, there is plenty of potential for varied things to be shown and displayed here - and I look forward to sharing with you all. Thus, with no further ado, I bid you welcome to my thread of finished works from the forge of Master Ciaphas! Faithfully, Master Ciaphas

Hi! New to this section of the site. I'm not really an Adeptus Mechanicus player. My hobby experience is mostly in Astartes (BT specifically), but some Admech models/Imperial Knights really stood out for me, and I ended up collecting them. I currently have a playable force of House Hawkshroud Knights that I'm slowly working on, but... I searched and scrolled through the Admech threads, and... is nobody building the FW Warlord Titan? I know (from personal experience) that it's a very large and expensive model, but I have to say that I'm a little surprised. I got one recently after years of dreaming of this model. Yeah, I could have picked up the smaller plastic version, but the massive model on the tabletop was the idea that got stuck in my mind. I kind of wanted to show off the model as I build it, but it didn't feel right to put it in my existing BT thread, or the progress I've made on my Knightly House. So, first off, am I even in the right place for this? And if so, would anyone be interested in watching as I either complete this behemoth model or just bungle the whole thing?

Welcome to the Underhive Forge Back in the day I used to have several WiP posts and a Blog on here. In 2011 I unified these all into one mega thread called ' DarKHaZZl3's Armies of the Imperium ' I intended to collect an army for each available Army of the Imperium. When 8the edition rolled around mm commitment to that sort of died XD Instead I sort of just posted the stuff I was working on currently...and for the most part, the WiP faded away being replaced with completed projects and commission work. My WiP's tend to end up on my Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/darkhazzl3/ While completed commissions end up on my commission page - https://www.instagram.com/the_underhive_forge/ Only today did I remember that, instead of posting my completed stuff in my WiP post, I could post them in the actual forum for them XD So here we are! I intend to sort everything out and be more active again... I'll start with my most recent work, but will go back through my previous stuff and post it here for you all too! +--ACTIVITY LOG (Recent first)--+ Update 29/08/2020 = 30k Ultramarine Commission pt1 (Page 1). Update 14/08/2020 = Great Unclean One Commission pt2 (Page 1). Update 09/08/2020 = Great Unclean One Commission pt1 (Page 1). Update 29/07/2020 = Abaddon the Despoiler Commission (Page 1).

Evening everyone, I used to be an active member on here quite a few years ago now under a similar name. Unfortunately I've had to make a new account (I'll edit all my details and stuff later), however it's not a bad thing to start fresh! So without further ado, here's my finished FW Imperial Space Marine. I've had him a few years now and he has been both a Black Templar and an Ultranarine, however I wanted to finally do the model justice so spent a day repainting him. Heavily weathered, I wanted to show him as being the front line soldier he should be. As always, I hope you like. Cos

Been waiting a few weeks but my forgeworld order just came in. My Salamanders successors are about to get some more toys to play with. Salamanders Contemptor (running it in my list as relic contemptor dread) with cyclone launcher, kheres assault cannon, assault claws with plasma blast gun Sicaran Omega Tank Destroy, omega plasma array, heavy bolter, 2 lascannons, storm bolter. I cant wait to put these together and start knocking some xenos and heretics around.

Note: technically this might be a PCA subforum question, but I am not sure, please forgive me if I mis-posted it... Got a question, I recently acquired a set of MKII despoiler marines from Forgeworld, the casts had a variety of issues... I contacted Forgeworld and they sent me a new set, Which is great and all, but they went to the trouble of sending me a second kit, with 75% of the same issues. How should proceed? I can email them again, and see if they will send me legs with less issues. Anybody ever gotten webstore credit instead? I've had much better luck with forgeworld upgrade sprues in the past over the actual models.... Sorry for the badly taken pictures, but the point is gotten across.

Hello fellow Watchmen/Battle-brothers So today I want to talk about Forge World, but more specifically three units that i have been looking at. With Deathwatch being a low model count faction the aim of the game has to be efficiency somewhere so we can actually run with a chance of winning. Tarantula Turrets :- Coming with Twin linked Heavy bolter or TL Assault Cannons at 30/31 points respectively these look like a complete steal. T5 W5 can be a pain to get rid of and is BS3+! The draw back is HB must attack nearest infantry first. Lascannons must attack nearest Tanks first. Assualt cannon and Multiamelta variants do not have any "must attack" rules attached. Stormbird : Actually hoping someone will come out of nowhere and give a good verdict on this one but i have been recommended it for 8th edition as it works like the Stormravens currently. Fire Raptor : Of the two Birds this is the one that i am eyeing up the most. coming in at 400 points this thing has 2 Quad Heavy bolters and Megabolter and hellstrike Missles. The reason I like the sound of it is because it makes the corvus look bad in terms of raw firepower and carries around the same surviability while taking no penalty for flying around due to the machine spirit rules. So I am hoping to create discussion about these units.

I do like the new Mortarion and Typhus (Typhon) models, but I am leaning towards using the Forge World instead. Would it be generally accepted to use the Forge World 30k models, as 40k models, instead of the new as long as the bases were similar and they were clearly identifiable on the battlefield? Coming from older editions where FW was generally frowned upon, are others doing this for Death Guard? Have others thought about it? I'm assuming as long as people knew that they were the models represented on the board, bases were similar, and the WYSIWYG matches the wargear represented with the new characters in the Codex, is it ok to use even in sanctioned tournaments? As stated, I do like the new Morty, its just so unwieldy and hard to transport... Thoughts?

Warhammer Community post Basically, we're getting some doors for a Deimos-pattern vehicles and for our Primaris Repulsors. Have to say, they look pretty cool and I'll probably get them in due course. Wonder if the Deimos ones will fit the Sicaran chassis for times when they run without sponsons?

Whenever a Reaver or Warhound Titan (Imperium or Chaos) reach their last 1-9 wounds, their Titan Void Shields require a 7+ to work. Is this a typo or am I missing some way of making this happen? Here's the Titan Void Shield rule:

So for the longest time I have wanted Eldar Corsairs. I simply want a non power armor army, I am infatuated with the Eldar race, and I think pirates are cool. However I never got the Forgeworld book with them. Now with 8th edition I may bring some to the table but before that I was hoping to get some help and ideas. Anybody else going to give them a shot? Somebody have the rules that could shed light on the strengths and weaknesses of Corsairs? Do I need the GW index with Eldar and the FW Xenos index too? See anything particular unique and fun that can be done with them? Anything will be most helpful.

Edit: Books are out now, removed.

Just curious if anyone else is incorporating an Acastus Knight Porphyrion into their current Chaos list? Most the opponents I face (loyalist and traitor) role out a lot of Knights, Sicarans, Fellblades, Cereberus, Kytans, and Brass Scorpions (faction respective). I'm just curious how this large quad laser toting lad will equalize the field, or not. Would love to hear tactics if anyone is using one.

Why are the front of the bolter/bolt pistols upside down in the second upgrade pack https://www.forgeworld.co.uk/en-CA/Space-Wolves-Legion-Grey-Slayers-Upgrade-Pack-2-2018 Why has nobody caught this in the quality control? Compare this to resent miniatures like the custodes shield-captain or the necromunda stuff and I starting to wonder if it's only the wolves where choddy sculpting and bad quality appears.

Naturally the hobby can't grind to a complete halt so I'm pinching time to do odd models and such instead and it has been a very welcome change. Having recently finished a shiny new priest model I couldn't resist getting my Skitarii on especially after I was so kindly given a couple. I'm not yet ready to create that Skitarii infantry list I've wanted, so I'm not collecting the army properly as I've plenty of boxes that need doing first. My plan is to use the two troopers as acolytes for the moment but that does leave me with a small predicament: namely I have no Skitarii codex and have no need of one currently. I am a long standing adept of the Omnissiah so I'm fairly well versed but given the Ad Mech have never had a codex before I'm aware that there is a good chance I'm unknowingly out of date on things, or at least missing some new stuff. I just wanted to check to see if there anything in particular I should be aware of before I create my Forge World's background? Like the rest of my armies they are firm allies with my Inquisitor Lord and Marines but I've done nothing more than that I'm only looking for a few pointers but any ideas or suggestions would be welcome too Especially as I have pretty much nothing so far, not even a name! I'm thinking about a yellow/tan/brown colour scheme as something different for me to paint, I also think it'll look pretty cool on the models. Maybe a darker metal used, perhaps more blackish with bronze extras for the rest? Maybe a bit of red too, for example on the shoulder pads. I'm assuming there's nothing special about the guns or something I should know before brush touches paint? Here's my first Skitarii model: Simple yes but I think he looks cool and the kit was nice and easy to assemble too It's unfortunate I'm not too sure on the walkers, but then I did only ever have ideas of an infantry list... wait, getting ahead of myself again forget that

Greetings Brothers! I've finally gotten around to starting a heresy era legion and the choice fell on Dorns finest. I mean come on whats not to like? Siege warfare, Breachers, Sigismund, awesome fluff and best of all: Templars! Seeing as I play a Black Templars succesor in 40K it seemed only fitting that I went back to the roots in 30K... So this will be my log of the journey into the heresy for me and as such I will update it when ever I get some work done. My job keeps me away from home alot so progress will be slow at times but this log is just meant as a place for me to get other peoples opinions and to keep honing my skills as a painter, and of course have fun. I will make my own battle company with all the bells and whistles that entails. Im in the process of sketching it all out at the moment. Here's a litle teaser of what the test scheme evolved into: I did this tester for me to better judge the Imperial Fists paintscheme and to see what all the fuss about yellow was about: After this I was sold to the Imperial Fists and I made some orders from Forge World and group of other sites to get my heresy addiction going. On arrival I took a group shot just to see what I was getting into. (theres still some more bases on the way from Dagon Forge but there is a small back log and they won't show up before next month i think) And as such it looks like I got my work cut out for me. I will begin the process of going through it all to make sure theres no faults or anything and then I will get on to the washing. (which may take a while whith all this) This was all for this time and hopefully in the next post I will have washed and cleaned it all so I can get going on my legion. ++EDIT: THREAD HEADLINE++
