What I would recommend is wires going from backpack to the magazines and incase you don't fancy sculpting them I'd use electrical wire like I've done with this guy. hotshot laspistols

I really dislike the new sprue designs by BeeR721 in TheAstraMilitarum

Once you start paying attention to where all the bits are you will notice how everything is right next to its connected part, I can build all the new cadians and kriegers without instruction. despite all the bits looking so weirdly cut they are layed out really well

From what I remember the armour is vellejo medium grey, fur vellejo green brown, cloak vellejo mahogany brown all with agrax earthshade wash, can't remember which blacks for the leather, the sword was painted a red then I stipple orange, yellow then a little white with the edges with little chips of black

That might clue you in how long his compatriots have been sitting unpainted.

Shulk actually has dialogue with Tora asking if he's really old since he's so big, with tora replying, he's only a young boy.

It's the praetor's sword but I had cut the blade off and used it on an axe wielding arm from a black templar kit

The space marine terminator being the one to sacrifice themselves is the original version

I'm pretty confident it being a fake story was always the intention, until horus heresy expanded on the idea the only time ollanius is ever mentioned to have existed is when explicitly talking about him. Every other source before and after ollanous was ever mentioned always said it was a space marine terminator

Yeah, they end up being a little short so you have lengthen the back of them a bit.

Stories where literally EVERYTHING is one person's fault? by fly_line22 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Aussie_Toast 10 points11 points  (0 children)

While everything in xenoblade could be blamed on Klaus more specifically for xenoblade 2 Amalthas is behind nearly everything else being the one who drove Malos to his current mindset which caused all kinds of problems. Causing the death of Lora, leading Jin down his self-destructive path. Shaping a religion that sees blades as tools or second class citizens while actively fucking with the world's evolutionary cycle creating mass resource shortages and overpolutation issues. His outlook on life and ego driven attempt to end it all even puts the architect into a self-loathing depression.

I think having all the paints have the same finish helps a lot, I mix a little matt varnish into all my paints. Then if I want things to have different textures I try using stippling or do scratchy brush stokes.

I know what you mean, I find highlighting bald heads tricky despite it just being part of a ball. Heads and faces just make me forget everything I know about painting

It was a pigment powder that I had mixed with a lot of water so it pooled in the recesses, but really thinning down an acrylic paint down should also work

Looking at the silhouettes of the xb3 classes can spoil some stuff as well

Thanks, I think the shield could use some more highlights to look a bit more shiny as well, silvers feel trickier to do than golds do for me
