r/killteam

So i posted my progress of this on some other profile

Now here but with little more work done.

My oldest friends and I found our way back into the hobby. We stopped playing around 5th edition 40k and quit TT all together with the end of WHFB.

The last mini I painted was around 2010/11-ish. Almost forgot how much fun it is. And there community's grown so much, there are so many more resources available, it's honestly a blast!
Also so much fun to see how I'm able to improve with each miniature painted. (3rd image is the first miniature I started and finished)

Killteam is so much fun and the perfect game with the time we have on our hands now as adults.

Here's some WIP pictures of my painting progress. I finished the whole team recently but want to take proper pictures before posting the final result. Comments and critique very welcome!

First draft of a new gang. Cold wasteland dudes using repurposed and purchased gear who handle business for wealthy clients.

Each mini will all have a "resting" or non combat vibe. This one is surveying an area after a movement halt. Feel free to throw in suggestions, this guy is based off the Spartan Rangers from the Metro series.

I’m on my honeymoon trip with my wife. She was at a makeup color matching appointment and I had time to explore the area. I found all this for 210 USD plus tax!
We’ve been searching everywhere for a reasonably priced blood and zeal box, and we both adore Gobbo. Couldn’t ask for a better haul on a better trip!

There are no ghosts (yet) in Kill Team, so why not?

Finished a Trio of Ambulls Yesterday for an upcoming narrative koop match im gonna play with my Buddy this Weekend!

It's gonna be a massacre :D

Love doing intro games (in this case a welcome back intro game) as Meltchn piloted Wreck Krew to dip his toes back into the game after a long hiatus!

We duked it out at the Combat Company in Sydney, lots of pew-pew, lots of laughs and PLENTY of Good Times Rolled!

Such a pleasure with this legend!

All 11 operative options for Deathwatch Kill team I painted up! Suffer not the alien to live!

Mission was energy cells

Canoptek Circle v Felgor Ravagers

The dice had it out for the Necrons this match!

15-9 win Felgor

Dinner was hamburger tater tot casserole

Have seen this done before and wanted my Deathwatch Kill team operatives to have an urban base. Not sure if the American community had these were they were young but every grandparent had one of these rugs in their house. Really good fun doing something like this, looking forward to seeing reactions at my next game.

Played some kill team tonight and we got ourselves completely confused with how cover works from vantage points.

If the Orks (circled in green) can see the top of the space marine (circled red) but can’t see the marines base and the space marine is not on a conceal order, the Orks can shoot him but he is considered in ‘cover’ and can retain a defence dice and an automatic success?

Or have I got this completely wrong?

Greetings hobby hivemind, I've finally started to take up using makeup sponges for painting and realised the immense gradient potential this hobby tool. I had the idea of painting vespids where their carapace is based on the traditional heat signature gradient, where i find myself stuck on is if i'm to paint them with the warmest tones at the highest point, or do i instead have the gradient going down to the extremities with the hands and claws being the brighest point?

Made a little photoshop demo to get the idea across roughly.

Painting the power sword for the Deathwatch Sergeant, does it need more blending?
