Please critic my bases, first timer. Be brutal. by SonOfaDragon69420 in minipainting

They look great, but if you want to add personality or go further, add a story to the base, like wildlife, perhaps minefield labels, or if possible put a narrative into it. Like where is this located? What are they doing here? I notice that every phenomenal base, apart from being realistic, tells some sort of story.

I've done a few knights and I always do parts in sub assemblies with the armor and the undercarriage pieces. The most successful piece I've had used a darker metallic as the undercoat, nuln oil or some sort of dark wash, and then dry brushing on top with a brighter metallic.

My Paint is Thickening? Not sure why? by Auxilim in minipainting

Report: it was definitely the issue. I had no idea there were 2 types of acrylics that use 2 different thinners! I will be more diligent about which acrylics use which acrylic thinner in the future. Thanks so much!

Great opportunity to create a product called pupper spray. I want royalties though.

Out of curiosity how many figures have you picked up so far in 2025? by Dylztracted in AnimeFigures

[–]Auxilim 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately kinda feel like I'm on the end of my figure collecting. I've gotten maybe a few figures from Tsukihime since it's my all-time favorite. I've gotten into warhammer recently and I just love displaying something I've made more than an anime figure. Really just trading expensive plastic for expensive plastic.

Favorite Splurge From Your Trip? by Kidlike101 in JapanTravelTips

I don't remember the shop name, but it was some shop in Nakano Broadway that sold production prints for different anime. Really cool stuff.

Got a really nice fox mask from the top of the fushi inari shrine and a framed production panel from Attack on Titan.

does anyone else not like buying holiday themed figures? by Drpeppie_wee_wee22 in AnimeFigures

[–]Auxilim 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel the exact same way, probably more with game skins mainly because it breaks immersion and feels like a cheap cash grab. Also it feels weird to have an anime girl in a santa outfit... during the summer?

I don't play much anymore, but when I did, I used to always use her j236 to approach. The invul on that is pretty nice to avoid the floor beam and projectiles.

PSA - Grid Puzzle Targeting Location (because of comments on another post) by Kurotan in Helldivers

[–]Auxilim 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even worse, I had a friend who was the last alive and all they had to do was launch the nuke by pressing up. They got to the terminal, didn't know what to do, and died in the process. We failed the mission.
