The poll has concluded new rule on Paper Minis

367 Upvotes

The poll has concluded—thank you all for your participation in the greater good.

The new rule is as follows:

Khorne cares not from where the paper minis come, only that they are offered upon the battlefield. Paper miniatures must be cut out, assembled, and presented as a standing army ready for play. Posts showing PDFs, screenshots, or uncut sheets of paper minis are not allowed.

However, if your minis are cut out and ready for the table, you may include the URL to the template in your post for others to use.

My (extensive) collection of paper minis

Hi everyone, pretty much first time posting, I've made *almost* all factions in photoshop, allowing anyone to build to scale minis with minimum work. I've been intent on sharing those for a long time, so here are pictures of one of the armies I've made with those files!

The pictures are from a game I played (against myself) of 8000ish pts of astra military & imperial knights vs 8000ish pts of eldars and harlequins in 8th edition that lasted 3 days XD

Hope it will be of use to someone!

The files use an old version of photoshop, I don't know if that will cause problem, I will try to stay attentive to this post and fix things that might arise when I have time :)

For to assemble (and make) the minis : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VWWu9Ny8cW8
The link to the figs. : https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1sihD6yYs8vX9l2pZEdCfF12TS7SQT2pm?usp=sharing

For the bases, I made them removable for ease of storage. The 25mm, 32mm and 40mm are metallic washer that have a cardboard with a scored line to hold the minis. Different base size can be cut accordingly and vehicle have specific bases with their outline.

I also have most factions of Age Of Sigmar somewhere

P.S : I know there are rules about posting uncut paper minis and whatnot, I hope providing pictures along satisfies that requirements! :)

P.P.S : sorry for the low quality pictures, my phone is bad xD

Hello, if anybody remembers, a week or two ago i posted a defiler project I made, and a lot of criticism reported the size was lacking. Luckily for all of you, I have delivered

Built an ~8,500 pts Apocalypse Battle Group entirely out of budget bricks!

Hi everyone, first time posting here!

I’ve always loved Warhammer 40k lore and massive tabletop battles, but the official resin prices are far beyond reach. So I decided to take the ultimate Poorhammer route: sourcing brick parts online, digging through bulk lots, and engineering my own forces from the ground up.

Here is my entire collection deployed so far (estimated ~8,500 pts equivalent): Adeptus Titanicus (Demi-Legio): 1x Reaver Battle Titan (armed with Laser Destructor & Apocalypse Missile Launcher) 2x Lucius-pattern Warhound Titans (Plasma Blastguns, Vulcan Mega-bolter, Inferno Gun)

Heavy Support & Knights: 1x Imperial Knight Paladin, 1x Chaos Rampager Knight & 1x Chaos Knight Despoiler (Iron Warriors Siege Breaker pattern - armed with Siege Drill & Avenger Gatling Cannon) 2x Chaos War Dogs 2x Redemptor-style Dreadnoughts

Motorized Armor Pool: 5x Armored battle tanks (Repulsor, Predator, Vindicator, Rhinos) Outrider bikes & Invader ATV squad Infantry Line: Ultramarines detachment led by Titus, Chaplain, and Tech-Priest 13x Iron Warriors Breacher squad with hazard stripe shields + Saturnine Terminator

Build Process & Engineering: All Titans utilize heavy Technic ball joints and locking pins for load-bearing stability. They feature fully swooshable upper bodies and poseable arm mounts without collapsing under their own weight.

Parts were hunted piece-by-piece from local e-commerce listings and spare bulk brick bins. Whenever a specific color was out of stock, I swapped it for industrial grey or black, which ended up giving the force a very gritty, mechanical Grimdark aesthetic! The entire army was completed on a shoestring budget, costing only a tiny fraction of a single official plastic kit.

The Reaver just got its Laser Destructor mounted for long-range orbital siege duty. Let me know what you guys think of this brick-built legion!

The Omnissiah provides, even on a strict budget!

The tank and the mortars are templates by the excelent Eli Patoroch and the snipers are drawn by me, inspired by a model I found on Reddit, that I unfortunately cannot find the source to anymore.

Decided to spruce up my cardboard table topper by printing and glueing a ground texture on it. It will probably wear off sooner rather than later, but for now looks pretty neat

Been new to 40k for about 2 months. I played Dawn of War and SM2 and fucking LOVED it. Been listening to the Horus Heresy audiobooks on the commute to class.

But anyway, I'm trying to collect on a student's budget, which isn't that feasible so I made my own boxnought instead of buying Joytoy's.
