The Macrocytes seem interesting to follow a Wraith blob around and potentially get them hitting on 2s, but its going to be fiddly to keep them within 3" and outside of that use case they seem very over-costed.

The deep-strike denial should be useful for me in Nachmund and I'm personally a fan of movement slowing tricks, so not bad. I was hoping it would get to lead Ophydians, but that was always unlikely.

Painted the new Geomancer. GW seem to have forgotten about giving them 40k rules (why do you hate Necron Kill Teams, GW?), so I guess they're a spare Technomancer for now. #warhammercommunity #paintingwarhammer #nerdlings

I've painted up a few sections of Necron Tomb World terrain. I originally wanted this just to use as background for photographing other models, but I'm now tempted to get a second set to use for Boarding Actions. #warhammercommunity #paintingwarhammer #nerdlings

As a wise man once said; 'Give me six hours to chop down a tree and I will spend the first four bio-adapting a giant monster with scythes for hands'. Or something like that, anyway.

This was horribly painful to work out - I ended up having to throw my whole approach out and rewrite it several times when introducing lethal/sustained hits, devastating wounds etc. broke everything. But, some pretty interesting distributions come out, so... worth it?

I've made some tweaks to my www.dicendamage.com/Warhammer40k 40k damage calculator to show probability distributions instead of just averages. #warhammercommunity

When I got back into the hobby ~5 years ago the first things I painted were the Genestealers from the Space Hulk box. Now I want to include them in my Tyranid army but they don't match the scheme, so into the Reclamation Pool (Isopropyl Alcohol) they go! #warhammercommunity (un-) #paintingwarhammer

Tech Priest, testing out a paint scheme for a possible AdMech army I definitely shouldn't start. Trying to apply what I've learned doing Non-Metallic-Metal to True-Metallic-Metal to make it pop more. #warhammercommunity #paintingwarhammer #stopmebuyinganotherarmy

WIP Triarch Stalker, with a slight conversion to remove the pilot. I'm now pondering how I'm going to magnetise this thing for transport... #warhammercommunity

As a quickie palate cleanser between projects I've painted up a pair of #KillTeam measuring gauges in colours based on the #Warhammer40k logo - 2nd edition on one side, 10th on the other. #PaintingWarhammer #WarhammerCommunity

Snap! I'm also building one of these at the moment.

Point highlights. As a final step add a few small dots or short lines of your brightest highlight colour (either slightly brighter or slightly thicker than your last highlight) on the few points where the light will really catch. It takes basically no time and will make the model look 10x sharper.

Converted Boy with Rokkit Launcha made from a monopose Boy body with spare Tankbusta bits. Remember kids, don't run while firing a rocket launcher. #warhammercommunity #paintingwarhammer

I think this is probably my best mini both in terms of conversion and paint job.
