Warhammer 40k

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.

I wanted a lord of change for my thousand sons army cause big bird demon wizard is too cool not to include, but was told kairos is only 10 points more and better so I slapped on the second head. One day I’ll hopefully be able to try the game and figure it out for myself~

Wonderful work. I haven't painted minis for 20 years, but this caught my eye and reminded me what I'm missing.

Ty! I picked up a brush for the first time ever last year, there’s an eternal pile of sick arts and crafts waiting for you to get back into

Absolutely love the wings.. Amazing work

[–] birdcannon@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago

Thanks! The wings were the first thing I did, felt most comfortable for what I was going to do with them and how, having done similar for other daemons in my army. Knocked that out quick. I spent the rest of the paint time being indecisive on how to do the skin, heads, greebles, and ya know, everything. Repainted soooo many times while avoiding touching the wings with all might
