... could you give me a hand sorting out the 3D-art freebies for making fanart, please?
We've got
a little list on the freebie wiki. The regular editors don't play the game, and the page is getting messy.
The second-largest section on the page is "to be sorted" - we don't know where those links should go. The largest section is "Imperium of Man", and I've been lead to believe that there are recognizable sub-sections that could go here... but I don't know what those sections are.
What should go where?
A few sections under "Imperium" (not an exhaustive list; I'm not a very serious fan):
Imperial Guard
Imperial Navy
Space Marines a.k.a. Adeptus Astartes
Adeptus Mechanicus
A picture marked Dreadnought (or the alternate spelling Dreadnaught), or Terminator, is probably a Space Marine in super-heavy armor. An Apothecary is a Space Marine, too. I saw reference to a Rhino, which is an APC the Marines use and the Guard don't (the Astartes are elite; the Guard are treated more as cannon fodder).
Any image for which the title includes the word "Titan" is likely to be a humongous mecha of the Adeptus Mechanicus.
Glancing thru the 'To Be Sorted' list
DK Battle Gear and Crozius -- looks like one of the Imperial Guard sub-categories (different styles based on planet of origin)
DK Heavy Motar Fixed -- Again, looks like Guard
Darkmagi's/SHR's Necro Shotgun re-post -- generic weapon used by many factions
Laz Pistol & Holster + Re-breather Mask -- again generic weapon used by various factions
Armor space marine MK 7 for freack model 01 -- page not found error
Abigael sniper, inquisition Acolyte warhammer 40k -- Imperial Inquisition (yet another subfaction, can probably be lumped in with Guard in a pinch)
Daemons Of Khorne Bloodletters Warhammer 40k -- ''Khorne' is a major Chaos keyword, and 'Daemon' is usually Chaos as well
props imperial guard weapons warhammer 40k -- both links are Imperial Guard props
heavy weapon imperial guard warhammer 40k -- Imperial Guard
officer bridge ship battlefleet gothic 40k -- Imperial Navy
Adrastia Inquisition model for jessy poser 6 -- Imperial Inquisition
catachan fighter model w40k -- Imperial Guard
Thanks for the help. This gives me a starting point, at least...
With the exception of the Daemons Of Khorne Bloodletters, I think everything that's still unsorted is one sub-faction of the Imperium or another.
From the look of them, the DK battle gear is probably Deathkorps of Krieg, a Guard regiment
The Daemons Of Khorne Bloodletters, are Chaos.
And I think you've got a couple of items mis-sorted under Imperial
- necron chamber 40k scenery
- necron strider troop 40k universe fully poseable
should both be under the Necron faction.
Again, thanks.
I now have the "to be sorted" entries sorted, and the Necron entries moved... but I haven't started dividing the Imperium entries yet. Does anybody have a 26-hour day they could lend me?
