A community dedicated to the universe of Warhammer 40k, a tabletop setting in the far, distant future.

This is a general community for 40k miniatures, art, lore discussion, and gameplay discussion.

Rules

Keep it civil.
No memeposts/shitposts. Memes are great but direct them to grimdank.
Please mark any posts containing realistic nudity or realistic excessive gore/violence as NSFW; this rule mainly applies to cosplay and realistic drawings rather than miniatures. Being that 40k is inherently violent, this is a judgement call, and mods may occasionally request posters add tags.
No political or social cause agenda pushing.

Painted up my Flyrant for the new edition! He's kinda flat though because I can't seem to figure out how to shade the white carapace without it looking horribly dirty. So I was thinking of giving him a glossy varnish to make him look shiny like some real life insects to compensate.

I actually love that color scheme.

Thanks! It was a complete shot in the dark, couldn't decide on a paint scheme and just shrugged my way through it haha.
