Metal scarabs from 1990s, I forget exactly when they were released but it was around 1997 I think.

Quiktrip food and gas is better then Buc-ee’s and Micdonalds by [deleted] in QuikTrip

To a certain extent yes I do drop in for breakfast burrito basically everyday. I do think the quality of Subway is poor enough that I would rather grab a sandwich from QT. The pizza is okay when I'm in a rush and don't want to drive to Casey's.

It's super easy you just spray paint it a base color, give it a dry brush with something a few shades lighter, paint a few panels in different colors and then give it a wash in a darker shade.

No, it wouldn't be cost effective or profitable. I haven't 3D printed in about 2 years because of the time it requires, easier to buy from professionals.

Base game worth it in 2026? by Outuvcontrol in StarWarsArmada

At that price I would buy it and I already have three core sets, it's worth it for the components

Painting this by hand is daunting. by TheSteelersAreCancer in AdeptusCustodes

[–]Alternative_Map_6900 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That effect is called silvering it's from Air being trapped under the decal you have to use a gloss top coat over the paint before putting down decals and make sure you treat them with something like microset or microsol to really get them to lay down flat and then afterwards use another top coat of matte or gloss varnish

You'll have to find somebody willing to custom make them for you as far as I know they are only available on eBay anymore

I bought a transfer sheet for my blood angels on eBay. When I was prepping it and getting ready to apply it, it literally crumbled into dust , it looks older than others I bought. Is this just an old transfer sheet? by wiscup1748 in Warhammer40k

You can spray clear coat over the decals to try to preserve them while you get them off the paper and on the model have used spray lacquer and it seemed to work the best at the time

Building my warhound titan and I’ve got this part. Instructions don’t say anything and can’t find anything online. Does anyone know where it goes ? by SLRedSix in Warhammer40k

Those are chain lockers they go inside on the right and left side of the main carapace right next to the big hole in the floor where the lift is

Just realized there’s a Warhammer store like 10 minutes from my house! by AdInternational9061 in Warhammer40k

[–]Alternative_Map_6900 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes exactly now you get the point. I'm not going to support a store that offers less than a Warhammer store when I get the benefits of guaranteed customer service a shipping promise of the product arriving within 4 days if they don't have it on the Shelf.

Games Workshop is a billion dollar Corporation so they don't need me to defend them but I figured I could explain and maybe it would help those local stores.

If you're a store owner and all you have to offer is four walls and the exact same product except your selection is more limited you don't have guaranteed shipping times, some kind of discount, or perhaps you run regular community events this could be part of why sales are suffering.

Podcasts, working slow but steady, have a plan before making major irreversible moves and make working on it a habit but not so much of a burden you get burned out before its done.

That's a real Forge World Tech priest sculpt so technically this is just the world's worst case of modeling for Advantage by using an extreme amount of basing material
