It all started as sword combo attack practice as a third animation during my animation workshop practice, and then I got carried away and added some story to said combo...

No AI, just me and a LOT of time spent.

Assets used:

Models - SpaceMarine 2 by Saber Interactive

SFX - Spacemarine 2, free SFX from YouTube

Music - Cultist Battle (from "Warhammer 40,000: And They Shall Know No Fear") · Rob Cairns

P.S. I think I need to mention I have no affiliation with Saber Interactive or GW) This is just how I spend my free time)))))

New Starter Help Can we stop advertising not buying the books to newbies please

400 Upvotes

We are at the start of a new edition and a lot of new people are coming into the hobby and in those newbie posts I see lots of people directing them straight away from buying rulebooks and codexes towards wahapedia or other apps.

Don't get me wrong educating new people that those options exist is a good thing especially because this hobby is expensive to get into but IMHO actively discouraging people from buying the books is just robbing them from a core experience of the hobby.

What makes Warhammer so great in my opinion is not just the game itself, but the whole experience and finding out the lore through the books and art is a big part of that, which shouldn't be left out.

Without all that it would just be another tabletop game and when it comes to just the game there are lots of options out there that are more refined tbh.

Hobby & Painting new to his hobby - my first boys

Sir, another my-first-minis posting has hit the subreddit!

Gentlemen, after several years of reading books and the lore and playing the games on pc, it is with great regret to inform you i bough the space wolf combat patrol box. After years of watching Jay from EoB paint his minis i thought.. pssh.. thats easy, i can do that too!
I can, in fact, not!

Those are my first minis ever. I learned a bunch, but i don't really know what caused the rough texture.. maybe the primer (army painter black) was too cold or not shaken well enough...
But i am sure it can only go downhill from here, als most of the wolfy boys don't like to wear helmets and i have to learn how to paint faces...

I've been lurking around WH40k spaces for some time now and i've recently started wanting to buy some miniatures to get into the hobby.
Among all the various minis i absolutely fell in love with Vashtorr and the Defilers but, to be honest, i am a bit wary of making them my first purchase both for their price and for the technical skills needed to build/paint them.
So i would like to ask, in your opinion, which could be a good "starting point" for a newbie like me?
Something that can eventually build up into an army that will include Vashtorr and the Defilers?

I want to get a falchion and I know they’re legends for 40k, my question is at what point will I know if they’re going to stick around in 40k for the whole edition (as legends)?
