The Week Ending March 21st, 2020

Although it’s a big internet out there, the Warhammer digital universe is pretty small and spread out. In Content We Liked, we take a look at the articles, videos, podcasts, and products that caught our eyes or were noteworthy during the prior week you might have missed. Here’s what we liked this week:

In the Wild:

• Greggles’ Looted Invictor Dreadnought
  @3dgreg via Twitter
  Greggles is always on the cutting edge of cool ork conversions and it’s worth it to follow him on the regs if you aren’t already. His looted Invictor Dreadnought (with opening cockpit!) is just one in a horde of mechanised monsters.
• Macorei’s Kill Team Stickers
  Via r/Killteam subreddit
  These stickers are just great. I particularly love the 80’s “Kill Team” logo variant.
• Darcy Bono’s Insanely Cool Ghostkeel
  @Darcy_Bono via Twitter
  The worst thing about stealth suits and Ghostkeels not being good is that we don’t get to see nearly as many “mid-camouflage” paintjobs as we deserve. Fortunately, Darcy is working on fixing that with an extremely sick Ghostkeel.
• Richard Morgan’s Pop Kultur Fleet
  @Richard59892159 via Twitter
  Richar’ds Ork fleet is a hell of a thing to behold, and we’re excited to see what the next entry is.
• Ray Dranfield’s Twitter, Again
  @raydranfield via Instagram
  Ray’s Twitter account is one of the most pro follows on the internet. Every time a new terrain kit comes out it’s packed with tips and tricks on using the new kits in interesting ways. You should be following this account.
• Jay’s Kytan Daemon Engine
  Mohawk Miniatures via Instagram
  Jay’s paint scheme here reminds me of my own, based on the Hounds of Abaddon. Only you know, painted like thirty times better.
• Anna – Red Rose Wargaming’s ridiculously cool Warcry board/table
  @RedRoseWargames via Twitter
  Anna has created an incredibly cool battle arena for games of Warcy that just looks sick as hell.
• Smol_Cyclist’s Doomslayer
  Via the r/Warhammer40k subreddit
  A cool (and topical!) kitbash of a marine to pay homage to the new Doom release.
• Stupid, Sexy Abaddon
  @ArhPriest via Twitter
  Elijah ArhPriest created some sick art of Abaddon without his power armor.

On Goonhammer:
