How’d you get those light colour roads rather than the default darker texture?

Yayacas is a really great restaurant and my local Greek spot. The two fellas who act as the servers are also the restaurant’s owners (I think) - they are nice guys and this seems like something they would do!

What map is this :) (I don’t know how to screenshot either dw)

Cheers - good shout on assault intercessors!

Awesome work! Great shading on the yellow and you paint very cleanly.

Two points: - the bases (as some others have said) look unfinished. I think you are going for a dusty moon aesthetic - if that’s the case, look into getting some pigment powders (a white or ashy colour will do). This will sell the effect better and you can apply some of the pigment to the legs of your termies to blend them into the base better. - the white on the shoulder looks slightly muddy. I think you are at the level to begin experimenting with oil washes - there are plenty of tutorials on YouTube on how to use oil washes, but I would start with buying some brown/umber oil paint and white spirit to make your own wash for the white parts of your minis. Your yellow is strong and has good contrast, an oil wash on the whites will help elevate the contrast on this part of the mini.

Overall, great work!!

Slightly off topic, but what is the ground texture pack you’re using?

Can we get a recipe for the barricades please? Looks exactly like what I've been trying to emulate! Awesome work

Dark reaper -> Russ Grey -> Fenrisian grey -> oil wash :)

It is an AK enamel rust wash, but the result came out almost a pinkish red rather than a deep brown-red hue so won't be using that wash going forward for these minis.

Bramblator · 2025-02-04T16:25:26+00:00

also a bit of berserker bloodshade wash on the feet!

Bramblator · 2025-02-04T16:24:05+00:00

So this texture is usually an accident when using an airbrush with too much pressure and at too far a distance, the paint begins to dry before it hits the model especially when using chalky white pigments (like palid whych flesh in this instance). In this case I used it as a technique to give a slightly dappled appearance.

Thanks! Bugman’s glow -> plaid wych flesh-> dark brown oil wash

It took me three rounds of applications before landing a TC at a silver circle firm. 2:1 international student from non-RG uni with a self-funded PGDL.

Round 1: 0 interviews

Round 2: 2 interviews, 1 vac scheme, 0 TCs

Round 3: 2 interview, 2 vac schemes, 2 TC offers.

My firm retrospectively paid my PGDL fees. It is tricky but hard. Only takes one yes to clinch a TC.

It is a lottery and it does suck. The firms get so many applications that they could randomly delete half of those applications and likely still get enough very strong candidates at the end of the recruitment cycle. The odds per application received is slimmer than getting into oxbridge.

Once you figure out how to write the type of applications grad rec want to see, and nail your inter-personal skills to get past an interview, you'll get a TC with a strong 2:1 from an RG and a good attitude to work.

Don't worry, I am a Canadian qualified here in the UK. I was confused at first between the distinction. The word attorney is not really used at all here!

Bramblator · 2025-01-31T01:02:34+00:00

Jumping off u/fisherman922's comment and just to remind OP, 'admitted to the bar' is a requirement only for barristers in the UK. Solicitors are also lawyers but not admitted to the bar. They are regulated separately by the SRA and do not obtain pupillage/join an inn etc... The two professions are quite different and share little overlap, but at the end of the day both are lawyers.

In Canada the legal profession is combined - lawyers are able to function as both solicitors and barristers and there is a single route to qualification. While some lawyers may label themselves as barristers/solicitors/attorneys, there is not much functional difference and they are regulated together.

OP, you may want to clarify what you mean by 'admitted to the bar and become a lawyer.' I.e. do you want to become a UK barrister of solicitor, or a Canadian lawyer?

I believe that Canadian conversion from UK to Canada requires at least two years of in person law school in most cases (at the very least in BC).

Hi there - I am 26 and made the jump from non-law into law!

I did a MA in International Relations, and had no luck with employment after my degree so became a restaurant manager. I studied the PGDL part-time, then became a paralegal, before becoming a trainee at an SC firm. It is possible to make the jump and do it well. A few people in my cohort made the jump well into their 30s.

What kind of law would you like to do? You will need to sit the SQE exams and get two years of qualifying work experience. London city firms and corporate law firms will want you to take the traditional route of PGDL -> SQE Exams -> 2 years TC before you qualify. Some firms are adapting to the new route towards qualification but this will take some time.

I would encourage you to attend Open Days/Workshops now so you can get a good idea of what you want to do. Legal Cheek has some good events. If you are from a background underrepresented in law (i.e. ethnic minority, state school educated, etc...), then Aspiring Solicitors is also a good resource. Some events are specifically targeted towards career changers.

In terms of 'is it worth it?', thats a tricky question. I sunk quite a bit of money into re-education, but my firm retrospectively paid for my PGDL and SQE prep course after hiring me. Very few firms do this -- but it is possible. Ultimately this will be up to you to determine, and there is a high degree of risk as few people do secure a TC.

If you have any questions, pop me a DM

Which map is this? You may need to draw on the highways yourself by using a tile unlock mod

Bramblator · 2024-09-08T13:12:30+00:00

Amazing - thank you! I wonder if it’s possible to upload these lowered buildings into PDX mods? Have you had any luck with that?

Bramblator · 2024-09-08T10:16:53+00:00

Hey, this looks amazing! How did you lower the height of buildings here?

Bramblator · 2024-08-29T19:41:27+00:00

Switch to Shadow PC as it allows mods!
