Flint13 Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Evening folks. I've been wanting to colonize a new area of plog real estate recently. Gosh knows I'm going to remain indecisive, so I need the learned experience of B&C's veterans. I've narrowed my possible choices down to two, with representatives from each of their legions. Let me know which I should get off the ground. 1.) Carcharadon Astra, Brother-Sargent Kahu Shoal Pros - I love the Carcharadons for many, many reasons. Badass backstory, plenty of heresy era tech, awesome combat doctrine... plus loyalist Nightlords Cons - I can see the paint scheme getting a bit boring if I don't stay on my toes, gotta learn to paint that funky little shark badge better. http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/800x600q90/30/iict.jpg http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/800x600q90/716/35c8.jpg http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/800x600q90/600/4twp.jpg http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/800x600q90/843/oq3u.jpg 2.) World Eaters 8th Assault Company, Epistolary Haekon Jed'daai Pros - Eaters of Worlds. Still pre-heresy, still awesome, still badass Cons - Still painting white http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/800x600q90/543/1xoh.jpg http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/800x600q90/845/hrpc.jpg http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/800x600q90/585/ndzq.jpg http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/800x600q90/600/x9o1.jpg Which of these super human Astartes shall claim my new hobby time? http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/800x600q90/19/11te.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deathstrike_Chimera Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 While it is all up to your preference, I personally think the World Eater is more interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noctus Cornix Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 World Eaters. Just dump the ugly, antiquated Legion symbol. The new version show in the Betrayal looks infinitely better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helterskelter Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 The world eater gets my vote, I quite enjoy the tribalesque dags, the white is nice, my only critique would be the freehand symbol looks rushed? Then again comes with time, WE all the way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deathspectersgt7 Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Astra to many worldeaters already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UltraRich Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 The world eater is the one I'd go for It'll be loads more interesting to paint That mini has a good pose too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trevak Dal Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 I'd go with the Space Shark. Â I like grey though. Â If you did want to paint the world eaters, try priming in a light grey color, or painting the model a grey like Codex Grey (I don't know the new GW Paint equivalent...) and THEN white over that.

depthcharge12 Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Damn you make it difficult :D Â I still think you should do those destroyers ;) but do world eaters all the way. Â Â I feel that the Night Lords overlap too much with the charcaradons personally. Plus you can do a shock and awe army if you ally your NLs and WEs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forté Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Carcharodons. But I'm bias as I like the idea of space marines who attack without making noise and are savage and bloody. World Eaters without the shouting and drooling. Would recommend the transfers though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squeaky Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Even though I prefer your world eaters figure, my vote is carcharodon's for the simple fact it would be nice to have more sharkie people. Yes I'am biased :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyaenidae Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Considering that I already know what direction you're going with the World Eaters, they get my vote. Â It was a solid fluff idea, Flint. Don't ditch it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrandMagnus Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Hmmm tough decision because both are very badass. So biased, I would enjoy your work on either of them :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barabbas Sogalon Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Go for the World Eater. Great crusade/heresy is the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kol Saresk Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Both? O.o  But seriously, use the World Eaters to help with painting white, an when you feel like you're painting too much white, BAM! Space Shark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deathspectersgt7 Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Worldeaters have to use some device to get pumped . Astra no device ,kills with out a sound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forté Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Worldeaters have to use some device to get pumped . Astra no device ,kills with out a sound. And black eye lenses too. Plus battle damage.  I may have to do a squad as a break from painting bright colours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
infyrana Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 World Eater ... because you do MkIV's very well, and that armour suits them. Â My only comment would be about the smoothness of the white on the mini, but practice makes perfect :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KrautScientist Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Well, you probably won't be surprised to learn that I have to cast my vote for the World Eaters :) On a related note, that librarian looks awesome in colour! Â That said, does this have to be an either/or choice at all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fracture Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Sharks in space! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larkyn Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 World Eaters. There was no hesitation when I read that. Â I need motivation to work on my Eaters, so looking at yours will hopefully inspire me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knight of the Raven Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 I can't tell you what you'd find more interesting (that's a matter only you can solve), but I can tell you which I like better. Â World Eaters. If you're sick of white, just paint them like destroyers. Or switch to War Hounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hushrong Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 I also want to say World Eaters! Both are great but your rep for Angron's Legion takes the cake. Â Also, his name makes me think of a yuuhzhan vong word. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KrautScientist Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 I can't tell you what you'd find more interesting (that's a matter only you can solve), but I can tell you which I like better.

Honda Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 This is pretty simple really: 1. 2. Tribal tatoos on the armor 3. Guys in your squads that look like this: 4. This guy will be looking for you every time you get near the ocean if you don't do Astra. I.e. It's a brotherhood Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squeaky Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 That's it Honda screw the butchers needles. Who wants a shark to find your home address ;P and wait for you in the ocean... As he can't hitch to your house.... because it's to lazy to walk.... Yeeeeh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
