For those wanting a look at the company heroes box and my thoughts - here is my unboxing kzread.info/dash/bejne/qYiL3LejnJiqn5M.htmlsi=8vpqgqMV7W_Ify2z

That Dark Angels Banner bearer - I owned the 2nd edition version of that - way back when there wasn't even a sculpted banner on him.

I’ve thought about adding some legacy miniatures to my force but the size different just puts me off, will probably to and recreate some tho with newer minis

@@cat_or_rabbit I totally agree. My Dark Angels is pure Primaris outside of some vehicles. Although I do sort of want to get an OldHammer 2nd Edition army going too. Just for the nostalgia.

That heavy gunner is my favorite I think.

As I’ve slowly gone down the kitbashing rabbit hole, small narrative beats and artwork is slowly becoming my biggest inspiration.

The pointy finger definitely helped the pose on that last dude haha

I don’t even know what the original pose was trying to achieve he just looks a bit bored and janky with his arm just hanging down. 😂

Have been wanting to get this kit to do some cool DA kitbashes. Will finally get my Company Veterans kit together with the Deathwing Assault box with the new DA upgrade bits aswell!

@cat_or_rabbit

Yep! I’m looking forward to the Deathwing box - but I think I’m looking forward to the upgrade sprue the most!

Really approved that thumbnail art with the 2nd Ed style box. I do love the blue background on those, givin' that meta/off-context mood with sole focus on miniatures in an uplifting tone.

I’ll be honest I have no idea who any of those people are so ill have to look them up, however it’s a great idea to theme a squad on characters!

Nice conversions! I probably spend more time kitbashing and converting my DA than I do painting them

@cat_or_rabbit

Oh I could easily fall into that, however I do try and paint up what I kitbash (and have achieved that 99% of the time) as I also like to keep my backlog fairly small

Die Idee finde ich sehr gut. Ein Leitfaden um es auch auf andere Orden anzuwenden. Hätte man sich auch die Mühe gemacht, sämtliche Gießgrade und Angüsse ordentlich zu entfernen/ verschleifen wäre das Endprodukt noch besser geworden. Nach der Bemalung werden diese sichtbar und sehen einfach nicht schön aus. Citadel Modelle kosten schon Geld, man sollte sich die Zeit nehmen die Modelle ordentlich zu bauen.

@cat_or_rabbit

5 ай бұрын

Die Modelle wurden vor dem Lackieren nicht vollständig gereinigt/vorbereitet. Weitere Aufräumarbeiten werden im Laufe der Zeit durchgeführt, was auf die Art und Weise zurückzuführen ist, wie ich in Unterbaugruppen arbeite

Some nice kitbashes. The one thing about primaris command that bugs me is how tall the banners are. If a "mini" marine was 7ft a primaris must be 8-9. Thats like a 20ft tall pole!😂😂

@cat_or_rabbit

5 ай бұрын

Oh if your mixing 1st born and primaris the banners are very noticeable in height

So ridiculous idea for the heavy bolter, instead of the blast shield just drill a barrel sized hole in the emblem.

Love it, was going to try and add the sword part back in however it would of involved some cuts to the angled lip of the blast shield, and I didn’t want to take the chance of messing up a cut and it ending up a bit jank. - having said that I’m wondering if something can be 3D printed to make something like this work
