simison Posted April 18, 2016 Author Share Posted April 18, 2016 That is so awful. I went to a few threads and now understand why it is called whineseer....they talk about everything what is going wrong with the hobby...maybe we should have started the thread with: "why gw's primarchs have to be replaced - A solution" I even found Athrawes thread there and there were some kinda rude. So what about posting here? Otherwise let us try a big one again. Dakkadakka seems nice. *shrugs* It happens. Anyway, I thought we were targeting the smaller sites and then the big ones?

~Drakzilla~ Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 Have you considered putting out the ad on DeviantArt or the 40k subreddit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chief Captain Redd Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 @drakzilla both good ideas I've not heard mentioned before. And with any forum site whether it be WiP or DakkaDakka I think it might be an approachable idea to talk to Administration first as we represent not a single person but a good sized group and I see this gaining interest in the DIY community, instead one post in a smaller subforum but one in a very heavy traffic area. As even though this might ultimately be of interest to 1 of 1000 gamers that's still 10 or 15 new people and resources into our community. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~Drakzilla~ Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 I'll be starting up an artwork thread in the WIP section once I start working on my next piece, and hopefully that'll add some visibility among that crowd. Speaking of which, since K'awil is nearing completion, which Primarch should I do next? Is there any particular order I should go in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chief Captain Redd Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 Well Daer'dd, Pionus, Koschei, and Morrow are the Primarchs from the first book without artwork. So anyone of those four. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simison Posted April 19, 2016 Author Share Posted April 19, 2016 Have you considered putting out the ad on DeviantArt or the 40k subreddit? Didn't think of those. Reddit, I get, but how do you put an ad out on DeviantArt? I'll be starting up an artwork thread in the WIP section once I start working on my next piece, and hopefully that'll add some visibility among that crowd. Speaking of which, since K'awil is nearing completion, which Primarch should I do next? Is there any particular order I should go in? The Iron Bears are the next ones closes to completion, so, it's Daer'dd's turn. Followed by Koschei, Pionus, Morro, and then Icarion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demus Ragnok Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 Someone may have and I just missed it but what about signature banners? I have no idea what is involved in making them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone did suggest it, but I don't know how to make them. Athrawes might. I'll PM him about it. EDIT: As far as the list, Redd, do you have a profile on the WIP board?

~Drakzilla~ Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 I can try my hand at a signature banner if people let me know what should be on it. I love doing graphic design type stuff, so I should be able to crank one out pretty quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simison Posted April 19, 2016 Author Share Posted April 19, 2016 Excellent, in that case, what symbol do we want to represent this universe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grifftofer Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 To me it would make sense to have the symbols for the Loyalists and the Insurrectionists on there (perhaps at opposite ends of the banner). Then maybe have the symbol for the Reformists smaller on the side of the Insurrection symbol to show their initial alignment with the Icarion? Either that or maybe headshots of Icarion and Alexandros facing each other from opposite ends of the banner? Not sure what else should go in it though.

~Drakzilla~ Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 Okay, maybe somebody can PM me said symbols? Also, if I'm going to do the face-off option, I'll need a basic description of Alexandros's head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikhalLeNoir Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 How about different banner designs? One for the insurrectionts, one for the democrats and one for the loyalists? Maybe one for the admech etc too. So we could increase interest as people tend to click something new and so they would click on the different banners and always land here.
