Warhammer 40k

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

  1. Keep it civil.
  2. No memeposts/shitposts. Memes are great but direct them to grimdank.
  3. 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.
  4. No political or social cause agenda pushing.

Did you build your sets piecemeal or buy a set all at once? What brand do you recommend? What should I be looking for?

I’ve used Winsor and Newton series 7 and some of the other highly recommended and expensive kolinsky sable brushes however I find myself picking up my Rosemary & Co brushes more often lately.

Look for a brush that holds a good sharp point and find something where the “belly” of the bristles is large enough for how much paint you like to use before rinsing/refilling.

I only use cheap synthetics for stuff like terrain.
