Welcome all to the 133rd round of the Dakka Painting challenge. For the unfamiliar, this is a friendly painting competition open to members of all skill levels and experience, whether your entry is your first or you thousand-and-first time painting miniatures. Each month, finished entries are collected into a thread where the community can vote on their favorite pieces, and those votes go towards an annual overall League that runs for 12 rounds.

This month the topic is: Space Marine. Our annual start of the competition. Do want want to travel to distant planets? See exotic creatures and planets? And kill them? Then sign up for the Space Marines today? Not just GW’s Space Marines, but any future soldier that fits the bill. Day in the Marine Corps is like a day on the farm, every meal's a banquet, every paycheck a fortune, every formation a parade. All right, sweethearts, you're a team and there's nothin' to worry about. We come here, and we gonna conquer, and we gonna kick some, is that understood? That's what we gonna do, sweethearts, we are going to go and get some. All right, people, on the ready line! Are ya lean? Are you mean? WHAT ARE YOU?


- You may enter up to 5 MODELS as a SINGLE ENTRY, and are permitted one entry per member per month. If you enter multiple models, they should ideally be related in some way, such as part of the same squad, unit or scene if you are doing a diorama
- You may enter at any time during the month, up to the last minute. We do encourage people to enter early, as to be part of the community, but if you can’t start until the 11th hour, that’s OK.
- You MUST post a 'proof' picture of your entry in the thread of the state it was in before you started working on it; this must be either unassembled, unpainted, primed or coated a single colour. Entries that do not submit a valid Proof Picture will not be eligible for voting. ...

I dunno, since space marines are all getting codex's, each guard regiment should get its own codex too.
codex cadian
codex mordian
codex tallarn
etc.

Dakka Daily Poll: When doing model fine details and symbols do you prefer to...


Posted: 2026-03-12 09:59:07
When doing model fine details and symbols do you prefer to...
Use standard decals
Create your own custom decals
Use detail on the original model itself
Deliberately buy upgraded parts for models with Symbols and detail on, to save using decals.
Model your own GS fine detail
Paint on fine details free hand
Don't bother with detail, just a basic paint job
I Don't Paint

Dakka Forum: Why has the "Second Game" up and died(Or AKA, why do some many games fizzle out)

So im sitting here plugging through my Conquest Sorc Kings army. Loved the models, loved the lore, loved alot of it.
But im also sitting here wondering why bother ynow? the game died(Or more never was really born in this area) leaving me with it and my 4 core group of friends with our armies, and they(alongside me) moved to warmachine. But even war machine feels like a shadow of its current self.
I also played competitive MCP for a long time, until i had a come to jesus moment when i played at a tournament an hour south of me, and all my opponents where people i played.......who i met and hour north of me. the crew remained the same, the location didnt. then i tried to get local games, and i still have to drive.
I remember early late 2000s early 2010s when you had tons of other games all vying for the "Second Game" the one people played besides Warhammer, or left Warhammer for. Warmahordes, Malifaux, Infinity, Dropfleet commander. All my local stroes carried that and had events and game nights.
But now.....its just Warhammer wherever you go. i never see events from any other games advertised.
When i asked my local store if they will carry Gundam or starcraft, the laughed, only wargame they are going to carry now is 40k and the minimum of whatever they are required to.
Did GW really kill that market? was it outside forces like the state of the ecnomy and time?
