Just as general feedback, which I'm sure others may wish to also add their 2 cents into.
I would like more customisability with the Army Painter tool; you just need to look at games like Fallout 4 for example, you can pretty much colour or amend every body part. In tandem with this I would also like the ability to heavily customise each individual part on each individual units colours.
I'm not sure if you can add your own army badge? I think you should also be able to do that - likewise with the online Profile picture, I would like extra customisability with that. For instance, having 40K armies pictures there, or generic profile pictures like an Imperial Guardsmen, or 40K stars/ universe or something.
I think you should provide more colours, either in a RGB or HSI model, it seems a bit random atm; it's a good start don't get me wrong, but I think appearance is important, this kind of thing keeps me personally attached to the game and makes me want to keep playing it
Cheers

This is awesome.
I was very VERY disappointed, in this era of technology, that all I had to choose from for my profile picture was a small selection of thumbnails.
I really really wanted to use some Space Marine images of my character that I could upload from my saved folder of images.Why can't we upload our own profile pictures? If it because there is a chance someone might just upload a pair of boobs (gosh, shocking or what!?) then maybe there could be a heck of a bigger choice of images to choose from. Many different faces of all the factions, alien or humanoid alike. Tanks, war machines, skulls, iconography, etc etc..
And yes, more in keeping with your main OP, being able to choose colour schemes and idonography is a MASSIVE part of Warhammer in real life. The whole point os to offer up a blank canvass for the gamer to paint his/her own colours and personal identity. This allows inclusion, diversity, evolution and sense of community.
This is particularly preferred in game as well as profile design abilities.
I cannot write 'Brother Maleus Praetor', as my profile name, it has to be: 'BROTHERMALEUSPRAETOR', which is illegible. (Still, I managed to find the one and only profile image I could use to best fit my profile, but still, it is a Terminator's helm, not exactly what I wanted to use but close enough).
Sadly, for a company; "Close enough" doesn't retain many customers.

So, essentially, you want that good old customization from the DoW1 back? That's the first thing that has appeared in my head from reading your text.
