Is 'Eavy Metal Calling?





UK

Time to pick next month's topic! This month, a selection of nice broad themes to pick from!

- The Wise: Strategists, Seers, Scholars, this theme is all about the thinkers and wise men in your forces. Wizards, skilled commanders, diplomats and advisers, all are ideal for this theme!

- The Brutal: Bloody-minded warriors, merciless killers, remorseless leaders and ruthless tyrants. The bloodier the better!

- The Outsiders: Those shunned by society for their nature, their beliefs, their powers or their talents. This could cover the rebels, rangers, insane and infected, to name but a small selection.

- The Devout: Fanatical followers of a faith or a cause, good or evil, from the seething hordes of a cultist mob to a mighty warrior-priest inspiring fervour and devotion.

The Brutal. Or, I would, but the poll is closed for whatever reason.

EDIT: Nevermind, it was Dakka derping.

hmm...all nice themes honestly, and I could probably work with any of them I think, so I don't really mind which one wins

...I voted for "The Brutal" though, because, well, orks mostly ...but off the top of my head, that's just the theme that I have the most possible options for.

...it's good to be green!

I voted for The Wise, but I could probably make something happen for any of the themes:
The Wise: Primaris Captain in Gravis Armor would be my preference since I'm trying to knock out all my Primaris Marines by the end of August anyway, but I could also do a Tau Ethereal or even Grand Master Voldus.
The Brutal: I've got a ton of Chaos stuff that would fit the bill for this category.
The Outsiders: I could paint the new Cypher model for this.
The Devout: A Tau Ethereal could fit this theme as well, but I've got a couple of Chaplains or some Chaos Cultists that would work as well.

My armies (re-counted and updated on 11/1/23, including modeled wargear options):
Dark Angels: ~15000 Astra Militarum: ~1200 | Adeptus Custodes: ~1900 | Imperial Knights: ~2000 | Sisters of Battle: ~3500 | Leagues of Votann: ~1200 | Tyranids: ~2600 | Stormcast Eternals: ~5000

Err, it's doing it to me too; first time in the thread and I just get the results and no option to vote?


Automatically Appended Next Post:
Ok, as soon as I posted the vote options came up. Weird.

It looks like brutal is going to win for august's theme. I believe I have a slaughterpriest with hackblade lying around somewhere.
I guess i'll do him.
He will fit like a glove ..

Indeed, Khorne is perfect. I have a Bloodbound Skirmish Warband I need to finish for September, done all but the grunts (the Champions having previously featured in last year's painting contests) so it'll be 5 Bloodreavers for me!

Cool, can't wait to see your take on bloodreavers!

I'll probably do a weird color scheme on him.

I'll do Sicarian Ruststalkers, or perhaps Infiltrators.

Looks like Brutal is probably going to take it. Maybe I should get a couple of sets of the Easy to Build Primaris Reivers for that one.

Brutal it is.... I'd make a joke of some kind, but it'd inevitably be....


Khorney!

I apologise for nothing...
