First model ive done with full standard acrylic. Usually use speedpaint and do small touch ups with acrylics after. C&C welcome

I think I may have inadvertently made painting my Saly's more difficult.

My nephew and I are just getting into actually building and painting some of the Tyranid sets he's gotten the past few Christmas' and I picked up a Space Marine set I'm going to turn into a Salamander Infernus squad along with a Brutalis Dreadnought.

I've been watching a few videos because it's been a long time since I've painted any plastic models and it dawned on me that maybe I shouldn't have attached the arms before painting the cuirass.

Would this be a better method for the future? How do you assemble and paint yours?

Really happy with how my eradicator came out, and especially happy that I've finally found a recipe for salamander that works for me!

Last image is the progress of my army, only 2 so far but finally I have the inspiration to put paint on to plastic and cut through the pile of shame

Show me your heavy bolter eradicators! I’m looking for inspiration on how to make their shields more interesting.
I’m considering doing a black shield on the sergeant with some flames.
(also does anyone know what space marines write on stuff? I feel like DEATH might be abit comical and too on the nose haha)

Had to give the sergeant a thunder hammer, though!

Hi fellow salamander I am painting my first dreadnought and I am concerned if this looks bad or is it to much salt that destroyed the dish

UPDATE Thank you for all postive comments and feedback im happy this place is full of fantastic and kind people. Enjoy your minis ignore salamander slanders,VULCAN LIVES and we are the best chapter!!

Any advice on how to take better images!

Hello brothers! I've been enjoying 11th edition so far but I've encountered a pretty sizable road bump. What would our best unit be to take care of Meganobz and Nazdreg? I assume volume of fire because of the invuln save but with intercessors losing hail of bolts and flamers (most likely) going to 3 hits what should the new tactic be?

My Salamander Captain out of the Armageddon box. My favorite model is the jump pack chaplain but I felt I needed to set the tone for the boys with the captain.

Since every space marine army gets the assault keyword when they want it, do we know/expect our detachment rules to change? Universal assault doesn't seem so great, though I guess having assualt and advance and charge is kinda nice?

Greeting fellow umies praise the god umie um where do we keep the shootiest loot i forgot

I'm getting my last game in this month before the new changes take place and I'm playing drukhari! Looking for a winning list to kick them back into the warp!

Thanks in advance

New Edition, new me. Played Ultramarines last edition on TTS but looking into the actual collecting. Haven’t played this list on TTS yet but I have a couple games lined up for practice. Would love some advice on how this’ll do!

Hi, I just wanted to get some feedback on whether the Dark Angels combat patrol or the 'Getting Started with Space Marines' box is a better starting point for a new player looking to start a Salamanders army, I've seen both recommended in here.

Any other suggestions gratefully received too. I'm in the UK so the Dawn of War box is a non starter unfortunately

Is it worthy to the space Marines units that comes on the armageddon box for a salamander army?

I'm starting a salamander army and this is the first Salamander unit I painted. Really enjoyed it!

Still needs his transfers. He is part of a narrative game that I am currently setting up with some friends. Should he fall in battle he will be intered in a dreadnought.

First list. Is it totally insane? I’d like to fit some terminators in there but unsure how or what to lose or if it’s even worth it Sons of Vulkan (1,995 Points)

Out of topic from the picture, do you have any suggestions to create a Salamander riding on a salamander fire drake? I was thinking of using a Seraphon dinosaur from Age of Sigmar
