I dont think WE need another 3 man unit of melee, armor, and meat at most they need havocs
On top of that Mutilators are melee Obliterators so it makes sense for them to be predominantly in the Iron Warriors.
Jar of rubbing alcohol, simple green, or la's totally awesome, all cheap and can strip paint(including primer) without harming the plastic.
Yeah roommate said the same thing, so i think i'll bath him/scrub with a tooth brush to get that shit off him.
Someone else mentioned in the thread keeping your first paint jobs around as a reminder of your progress years down the line, and that's fine, but when a fuck up happens fortunately it can be fixed. Even if you only get 99% of the paint off and there's still a little bit in the crevices visible, as long as it's not chunks it'll be fine to prime.
Some old dude at the game store I frequent went on some rant about how the Imperium isn't something to be idealized, they're evil yada yada. And it took all of my will power to point out that they're not evil, they're just humanity pushed to an extreme because of everything around them. There are people in the Imperium that do great evil in the name of a greater good sure, like Inquisitors who bomb a planet to stop Chaos or something, but there are also people who do amazing good to save their fellow man.
I think the Imperium is evil on an institutional level as they view humanity as a disposable resource. Millions of lives can be considered rounding errors when measuring the impact of Imperial policies. It is an entire civilization that is built to fund war. This empire can not function unless it sends its people to die in conflict, unlike the Empire of Man or Sigmar's Forces of Order.
I think it's evil in the same sense of the things that you mentioned
You take that back you heretic filth. Arco-flagellants are S-tier.
Say it with me now, okay?
My guess is locked to CSM and perf for IW.
I know, I just hate the legion-locking and Eightbound.
It's usually easier to do dismembered bits and then having some bone and blood or whatever sticking out of the ends where things got cut or shot off. Space marines and necrons are fairly easy to cut up at the body joints to re-glue gap fill with minimal effort compared to something like re-posing the knee of a guardsman. Plus you can also partially bury them in rubble/mud/whatever to hide joints too if you need to re-do something as sprawled out face down in the dirt. That being said, fitting an entire body of even a dead guardsman on a base is a bit much for anything smaller than a dreadnought or knight.
I just don't like the models. Naked dudes with whips for hands. Repentia (I think that's the name) are the same kind of look but at least have the giant chainsaws going for them. Of all the battlecrys in 40k, "Send in the gimps!" isn't the one I expected.
Lots of gimps in 40k. Admech chicken walkers? Look below the pilot, there's someone in a gimp suit. Slaanesh cultists, 'nuff said. The luckier of the ones captured by drukhari, plus the old mandrakes, . All of the imperial assassins. In Fall of Cadia, the sisters there definitely send in an army of gimps that I guess they had just been caring and feeding for just in case they needed them.
Custodes are just classical heroes when you have the knowledge they are working for the singular reason the imperium still barely stands today, which is the emperor. All of their actions can be justified by the fact that they are one of the few individuals with knowledge of what happens behind the doors to the golden throne, something that only primarchs and the most high ranking marines are privy to.
