The Week Ending May 16th, 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

  • A Scale Imperator Titan
    @ATT64 via Twitter
    We think this broke out of the realm of “miniatures” at some point but this 9 foot-tall titan project is just insanely cool and we’re excited to see it when it’s finished.
  • Lady Kali, Vampire Queen
    @pegastyx via Twitter
    This is a very cool conversion of the Yncarne and the blood effect on the swirling energy is inspired.
  • Baz Watkins’ Constantin Valdor Conversion

    I tend to agree that the Forge World Valdor model is too busy and Baz’s custom Valdor is much more elegant. The green stuff work he’s done on this model is just insane.

  • Reanimation Protocol Activated

    This is a really cool idea and it creates a stunning visual effect.
  • A Bunch of Old White Dwarf Art 
    @Wibdoestweets via Twitter
    Wib collects a bunch of really cool old White Dwarf art showing Judge Dredd-style space marines and guard. It’s always crazy interesting to see how the current 40k aesthetic was birthed from these older illustrations.
  • TryHardHat’s Borderlands-style Rukkatrukk Squig Buggy
    TryHardHat via r/Warhammer40k
    The Borderlands aesthetic really works well on ork vehicles, and we like the work that THH has done here to add extra sketch lines and marks. It’s visually Borderlands without going overboard on the outlines.
  • The NICE MARINES RPG
    @jshowitt via Twitter
    Play a force of Space Marines dedicated to keeping the peace on a liberated world. Be nice to civilians! Hold parades! Lift heavy objects! Make the place respectable for the Imperial inspectors soon to arrive.
  • Geckilian’s Rogue Trader Marines Project
    @geckilian via Twitter
    OK so for whatever reason people were on a big rogue trader marines kick this week. This army kicks ass and I love the addition of the ridgerunner to show
  • SCBullen’s Night Lords Venomcrawler
    @SCBullen via r/Warhammer40k
    The way SCB did the freehand wing on the body of this Venomcrawler is really cool.
  • Chris Burwood’s Imperial Pub
    @BurwoodChris via Twitter
    The Rusted Cog is maybe the coolest use I’ve seen for Munitorum Armored Containers and a lovely piece of 40k terrain.

On Goonhammer

We started things off with a bang this week talking about Harlequins, then just kept pelting readers with content until they demanded we stop.
