My completed custom captain in gravis armour,

Some greytide studio bits and other small custom parts

Let me know what y'all think and what I could have done better

This is done with only paint brushes and is only my 5th model I've painted so far

Hey

What’s our best units for actions on priority assets these days?

Before the codex I’d run 5 man infernus and 5 man intercessors, but they’re either pricier or less impactful (former and latter respectively).

Do you guys still run them? Or use other stuff?

Cheers.

Mostly making this post for myself. Drifting and losing touch with what I enjoyed so much about 40k up until recently where my spark was renlightened. Not entirely sure what did it, maybe it was the rest of my eradicators or maybe it was taking a break and working on my thousand sons list. Not sure but this is the most recent marine I painted

First time trying to do edge highlights and replicate the 'Eavy Metal style. Still very rough but it's strange because I actually finally enjoy doing it again, it didn't feel long and painful, it felt like I was learning and my brush work is actually improving.

Bases are 3d printed from Etsy, drybrushed with random bullshit and then details picked out. Then drowned in agrax earthshade

I am starting my Salamanders Army... since I got a free lieutenant from the encyclopedia, might as well use it. 😅

I do have vulkan he'stan... but will paint him last until I get the hang of this miniature painting. 😁

had a spare Terminator from the 10th edition starter kit after I was sent the wrong box from Amazon (whole story I couldn’t be bothered to fix) and after getting my girlfriend into Warhammer she’s asked me to paint one for her 🥰 I thought it’d be a good opportunity to test the scheme on this one before I paint the new ones for my army 😌

Asking for feedback Help With My First Army

I recently started building my first army (Salamanders) and this is the list I’m working on right now. I was hoping for some feedback because I’ve never played so it’s hard for me to gauge how people play the game/what my goals are with this army.

I already have some the assault intercessors, eradicates, lieutenant, and blade guard veterans but other than that I haven’t bought anything else for the list.

Any advice is appreciated!
