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.

Does the Coat De Arms live up to the hype?

[–] Doctor_Spork@sopuli.xyz 2 points 9 months ago

I like them, but I'm not too fussy about my paints. Some of the colours come out really nice an vibrant, the red and turquoise on this model are both Coat De Arms.

They are a lot like the citadel paints from the late 80s, although I'm not sure that is a good thing for most folks. Compared to modern paint they are quite thin and need at least two (often more) coast to get decent coverage.
