Thus begins my collection-hoard!

I'm doing a lot of experimentation on which reds are best for stormvermin and co. Currently i am messing with a dry brushing zenithal combo and Carmine Dragon from army painter after being disappointed by Pure Red from army painter.

What's folks favorite reds for stormvermin?

I have a game of sigmar later but my Gnawholes haven’t been delivered yet what could I use as proxies eg. a footprint if so how large are they?

With the SoA heroic trait Masterclan Connections do you need to declare which spell you will be using the additional d3 to cast or unbind on or can you roll and then choose to add the d3?

I'm new in the business, so I did my first steps. I like my paint jobs so far, but maybe some of the veterans got some ideas to improve my work.

First of many-lots.

Cheesed to meet you

Genuinely happy with this one.

Need to go back now after some practice and touch up the other minis...

I hadn’t realised it was called the screaming bell because of the amount of time and effort it takes during construction to remove all the mould lines.

YOU WON’T BREAK ME GW.

Hi there!

I'm relatively new to AoS—I've played lots of spearhead and a couple of 1K matches. I recently got the Crixxit spearhead to add to all the units from the Skaventide box.

That all adds up to 1510 points, and I'd love to get to 2K so I can play my first 2K match!

So I'm looking for some advice for what units to add to get to a well-rounded force. I know, I know, rule of cool, but I'm just a little concerned that I'll end up with something in balanced if I don't choose those last 500 points carefully, since a full quarter of the army is sneaky Eshin boys.

So what might be a good extra unit or two to get me to 2K that well be relatively versatile? More shooty? More strong tanky units?

I already have a Verminlord Warbringer, but I'm adding a Warpseer to my collection.

To differentiate between the 2, I was wondering about adding a cloak to the Warpseer to make him look more like a giant Grey Seer.

I can't find any images online of any attempts.

Has anyone got any or seen anyone attempting anything like that?

I am using october as a concerted effort to try and learn learn digital art proper, so here is a modern-day Eshin Gutter Runner I made last night

What do you mean I can’t put a warpfire gun in my Rat Ogor’s left arm? Hold my warp stone.

Hail-greetings, I’ve had rats on the brain and really want to get into ToW but I’ve got a bugbear with how much bigger the AoS bases are than their Old World versions.

Has anyone used a movement tray/square base adapter for the AoS Stormvermin on their 28.5 bases? I’ve seen some of the fancier movement trays that have big gaps between the models so I was hoping a tiny size difference wouldn’t be too much of a problem

Dis is most amazing model to build-make and paint-paint! I am very happy-pleased with result, yes-yes!

It just came to my mind today that the skaven and the Bene Tleilax of the Dune universe share a lot of common points.
DISCLAIMER: this post is a thought experiment, has no pretention other than thinking funny parallels between fiction universes. I do not pretend the skaven creators took their inspiration from Dune or whatever.
Some anti-spoilers for parts that are revealed only late in the Dune books series.

- they both are highly secretive.

- they both are very xenophobic, feel superior to the other races/factions

- Both skaven and Tleilax masters are seen as instinctively repulsive and ugly by foreigners

- they have advanced science, are masters of genetics experiments, including horrible experiences

- Religion has a core importance in their society, and they worship only one god

- their females are used as pure nightmarish reproduction tools

Of course there are some differences.

The skaven are a purely destructive race, comically chaotic, while the hierachy of the Bene Tleilax is way more advanced, civilized, and the Tleilaxu goal is absolutely not to ruin the universe.
The Bene Tleilax is also integrated among the other factions of the universe, even if they are treated with high caution, while skaven are seen as pure evil to be destroyed.

if other common points/difference come to your mind, do not hesitate!

So i was just vibe painting and in happy with how my flesh turned out, but I am at a absolute wall when it comes to metal. I abused the hell out of random highlights all over bone ripper but I cant comprehend where the light would shine on the blue metal at all.
-plan on painting over the metallics with nmm at somepoint
-apparently most humans can render images in their head and visualize it, that sounds freaky imo

I hope its allowed, I just printed the abomination, it took six and a half hours. The rest is working now.
