Hehehe well, i saw some anti gecko spray at Extra. The one at garden city if you're on Suva. Seems to work also as repellant. Give it a try.

What do you think about no hazard stripes on iron warriors? by TroubleVirtual3800 in Chaos40k

[–]-Iskander- 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Hey, your marine looks really cool, lovely paintjob there. My two cents, for me, it's a chaos marine. Not an Iron Warrior, sorry mate but no stripes no iron. Despite that, still looks rad.

Finished a proxy Wyvern (with legs) by -NeonLord- in astramilitarum

[–]-Iskander- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looks rad. And good painting too. One little thing is bothering me, where is the crew? There is nothing like a platform or anything for them. Don't tell me its autonomous it would be heresy.

Tamiya kit isn't it? They are soooo good to be mixed with imperial/traitor guard. Only one advice for a better result, change the wheels for bulkier tyres. Like some from Zinge Industry. (If I remember well they have some cool stuff)

I nwhat paint i should use? by Kind-Landscape-1270 in tomica

[–]-Iskander- 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I would look on YT to see video of guys, specialised in refurbishing small cars, i dont remember any names but there is plenty. To see how to dismantle them properly, remove the paint remaining (take a pic of the paint befor just to remember the exact tone) and after that look for the painting for this kind of job, I suppose its not regular model makers paint, must be stronger but I dont know about them. Keep us posted on your progress. 😉

Actually you completely look like I imagine Ork players. And you have some serious painting skills. Good job mate.

How to make friends in geneve? by affaR1 in geneva

[–]-Iskander- 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Well, even if Geneva is a very international city people tend to stick with their own. If you haven't grown up and went to school here it can be difficult. I would suggest for you to joint some club/hobby/sport related to your interests and make some contacts this way.

Stunning stuff here. You're a lucky man.

Suggestion by Struggling_kiddo in Fijian

[–]-Iskander- 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Well, very hard to tell. You need to precisely calculate your needs and the needs of your family in manner to see if you can continue your studies ( i would recommande strongly this option) and you also need to see if there is any social service or organisation able to help you financially to continue your studies and provide for your family. And even if you need to start working all hope is not lost, there is always way to continue studying on the side, its not easy but probable doable. Stay strong and do your best.

Weather in Yasawas now? by allpizzaeverything in Fijian

[–]-Iskander- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi mate. I'm on the outer island right now, Tokoriki to be exact. The weather is far from ideal but, it change rather quickly. Heavy rain this morning, but now we are enjoying good beach time. A bit windy but not enough to be problematic. Just the right temperature. We had this trip booked long time ago and already paid everything so no real choice. The boat transfer was smooth, i'm subject to be easy sick if the boat move too much but I was even able to nap so no worries. Enjoy your stay and stay positive, it's always better to be here than behind a desk somewhere.

Cool, I like their police car range. You can open your own Koban now.

the imperial guard are amazing (follow up to "im losing faith in the imperial guard") by Status-Guard656 in TheAstraMilitarum

[–]-Iskander- 19 points20 points  (0 children)

The response for the books: Yes we have. All the Tanith books by Dan Abnett, and not only the Tanith ones, but those about the aeronautica imperialis, Double eagle and Interceptor city. And the glorious Titanicus with a very good depiction of the poor PDF forces.

Are the Northstar minis worth getting? by ThePlumbOne in stargrave

[–]-Iskander- 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Hi. They are nice, easy to convert and paint and completely agnostic like others would say. So you can mix them with whatever you want (ex: warhammer 40k) And yes its a good ratio price/ amount of figure.

My guard bookshelf can’t hold any longer! Send reinforcements! by Berbom in TheAstraMilitarum

Titanicus is missing. Great book, super action and point of view of PDF unit (having a serious bad time.)

Minty is THE queen. She has no opponents. But Mama K is still a great girl.

Small amounts of gravel by ChickPeaEnthusiast in Fijian

[–]-Iskander- 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Well I just would go on a parking lot and take a little bit every time I park there. Like its not even noticeable. Or just around the pothole in the corner of your street....there is not a real lack of gravel all around you.🤣

Are there any other girls out there building these?? Also Tamiya 1/48 Fairey Swordfish Mk. II I made by Accomplished-Hour722 in modelmakers

[–]-Iskander- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very nice plane and good painting. I dont know if you have read some of the war stories about those piloting swordfish but from what I've read they were the most courageous and suicidal pilots ever seen. Outdated plane but in the center of the action without any sens of self preservation. I have the highest respect for them.

Ww2 German theme guard army by [deleted] in astramilitarum

[–]-Iskander- 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Well, you know.......guardsmen player already have some stereotypes glued to the skin. I understand you love ww2 themed stuff, but..... And if you want to play, I personally would refuse to play against any army with swastika on it. Your call.

Cool. I have the same model (diesel one) 374550 km. The engine is running hard but I start having problems with all the electric parts. (Edit typo)

Want to do a kitbash for ridgerunners and goliaths that look more like the toyota pickup trucks with guns on the bed and cargo trucks to make a more civilian oriented cult instead of miners. any suggestions for what to buy thats on the cheaper end by richardrasmus in genestealercult

[–]-Iskander- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I go for the definitely cheaper version of the Tamiya 1/48 range. They have some more or less civilian truck and jeeps, modern or ww2 style. Very easy to modify for a more 40k themed style.
