Warhammer 40k

3914 readers
1 users here now

A community dedicated to the universe of Warhammer 40k, a tabletop setting in the far, distant future.

This is a general community for 40k miniatures, art, lore discussion, and gameplay discussion.

Rules

  1. Keep it civil.
  2. No memeposts/shitposts. Memes are great but direct them to grimdank.
  3. Please mark any posts containing realistic nudity or realistic excessive gore/violence as NSFW; this rule mainly applies to cosplay and realistic drawings rather than miniatures. Being that 40k is inherently violent, this is a judgement call, and mods may occasionally request posters add tags.
  4. No political or social cause agenda pushing.

Great. I have been meaning to update the list as well, but real life is relentless.

If you have any specific questions, I’m a passable painter who has touched just about every faction, if you’re having specific problems with some workflow. Pictures are always welcome, especially here in the WIP thread!

As for time and energy to paint, sometimes it’s rough. Doing a little bit of grunt work at night like assembly or priming, to help make weekends easier can help. You can also get some super cheap off brand models to keep around as warmups to paint and repaint with no stress.
