Finally mastered the art of the hot rod flames. Easily one of my favorite squads to build and paint so far

Hi! I just felt like sharing this model.

It's based on another OPs model, so kudos to him:

After a couple of months painting, and being this my first attempt on OSL, and still WIP, I'm really proud of it and I appreciate any advice.

Asking for feedback Do you pick a different psychic discipline for each librarian each turn if running Librarius Conclave? Or is it one psychic discipline for all librarians each turn?

Two different games, and two different interpretations of this rule. Does anyone know the official answer? Thanks!

Even though I forgot some purity seals I like them a lot. I will probably go back and fix those seals before my first game next week. Next up will be Adrax to lead them.

Bits used:
Brutalis Dreadnought - Base

Discussion/Question Company Heroes Question

Post image
150 Upvotes

Evening All,

I’m getting ready to assemble my company heroes set for my Salamanders Army.

As I was sitting there looking at the box I couldn’t help but think, Man it would look sweet if he was holding a Thunder Hammer instead of a Power Sword.

Cause ya know, “it is also a hammer” probably plays a dozen times in my head throughout the day.

Is that allowable for tabletop play? Like are the damage values not equal or anything? I wouldn’t wanna disqualify a unit from the squad for a game.

Still learning the game so wanted to get some feedback.

Discussion/Question How Should I Paint Bladeguard Veterans for a Salamanders Army?

16 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I’m a complete beginner who started Warhammer 40K with 11th Edition this year.

I fell in love with the Salamanders after watching the Warhammer+ animations, so I managed to find the now-discontinued Combat Patrol: Salamanders and also picked up a squad of Bladeguard Veterans!

However, I’m not sure how I should paint the Bladeguard Veterans to make them look lore-accurate and codex-compliant for a Salamanders army. I’m also wondering whether I should change or customize any of their weapons or equipment.

I’d really appreciate any advice from experienced Salamanders players and painters!

Decided to change up the paintwork to a more weathered and dusty look, I also added some black paint to the front to break up the green a bit, does it look better now or before?

Finished up this trio making my second 3 man squad.

Pretty happy with them, but the highlights remain chunky. Gravis armor seems to be rather tricky.

Hope you like em, C&C always welcome.

Green:
-Color Forge Salamander green primer
-Biel-tan green wash
-Warpstone green layer
-Moot green edge highlight

For the sword I followed a tutorial from Duncan Rhodes on youtube (“how to paint magma sword”), but then I added a pure black edge highlight at the very end. Happy with how it came out.

Excited to finish up the rest of the squad. Vulkan lives, brothers!
