Concord Posted Friday at 08:59 PM Share Posted Friday at 08:59 PM Hi all, glad to be here, and thanks for having me! I haven't played a game of 40K since the 90's, but I started collecting and painting again last year, with 2,000 points of battle-ready Salamanders and nearly 2,000 points of battle-ready Tyranids. I'm more of a lore fiend and model collector than a player, but I hope to get a game in sometime soon, hopefully before 10th edition is replaced. My current project is my own homebrew chapter, Iron Concord. I try to collect and paint up to 2,000 points before moving on to the next project. Not all assembled or primed, but I'm a little over that with these guys, with a little more planned. Currently working on finalizing the paint recipe on this first batch of elites, then on to the rest of the models. When I began collecting and painting in the 90s, I'd never heard of things like 'edge highlighting,' and speed paints weren't a thing, so I've practiced a lot of new tools and techniques in the last year. Still a long way to go. I'm actually retiring in a few weeks (!), so I'll have a lot more time to devote to this army. Anyway, thanks again for having me here, and greetings from the Pacific Northwest!Ordo Per Ferrum Bouargh, W.A.Rorie, Dr_Ruminahui and 2 others 5 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/387725-greetings-from-the-pnw/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shard of Magnus Posted yesterday at 04:02 AM Share Posted yesterday at 04:02 AM Welcome to the B&C! What color scheme and geneseed lineage have you planned for your homebrew chapter?

Concord Posted 12 hours ago Author Share Posted 12 hours ago Thank you all for the welcome! I’m experimenting with a sand-colored/desert theme with my first squad, but don’t have it dialed in yet. This is going to be a learn-as-you-go project.

Concord Posted 12 hours ago Author Share Posted 12 hours ago (edited) Notice how I SUCK at drilling the bolters! I botched two in a row then decided until I figure it out, I’m painting black dots. I need to find some 3D printed bolter-fire effects to cover my shame.

If you are using a hand drill tool I suggest, you use first the tiniest bit and then a larger one, so you can pinpoint the center to drill more easily after.
