The Week Ending January 25th, 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:

• Warboss Kurgan’s Fallen Knight

  This is just a really excellent conversion and paint job using the new Mephiston as a base.
• Tom Kirk’s Skulls Daemon

  This thing is just metal as hell. You can never have enough skulls.
• BertyJA’s Titanicus Chaos Warlord Titan

  This is a really cool conversion that pulls bits from a ton of different models in the Chaos 40k range.
• The Ninja Finger’s Grandmaster Voldus

  Love the paintjob on this Voldus. Just a very slick, well painted model.
• Oscar Lars’ Chaos Warrior

  Love the paint scheme on this one as well. Great colors, love the decision to go with white armor.
• Coda’s Painting Stream
  Twitch
  Coda streams at weird hours owing to being in Australia, but it’s worth your time to stop in on his stream when you can.
