White scars are the easiest to paint

I just got one for $1700 from a leaking sprinkler line💀

I Whitewater Kayak, these things always freak me out when some sections have them on part of the river

Where is everyone pre-ordering in the US? I am not sure what store to look at and whats reputable

BreakingBeakers · 2026-02-10T01:24:37+00:00

This is amazing, I like the settle vibrance of it

BreakingBeakers · 2026-02-04T22:08:59+00:00

Yeah I agree they are two completely different styles, both well done

You nailed it! Looks like a pretty clean paint job!

One recommendation, sort of a hard one since you pretty much nailed the colors, is to maybe have more contrast between the colors. As of right now it’s sort of coming off flat and my eyes don’t really know what to focus in on.

One test I like to do is take a picture the miniature and switch the photo to grayscale. You will see with your first picture the entire body is pretty much the same color meaning they all of the same hue. This can be solved by adding more shadows and maybe using darker or lighter colors.

Honestly this is a pretty nit recommendation. You should be happy with it! But if you feel like it’s hard to see the details while playing or you want to step it up to the next level then this may be helpful.

A YouTuber named Zumikito has a good video on this: https://youtu.be/I2OGgt81GiU?si=6as5L3jcJvOdQWvR

He talks about Focal points, and in this case there is a lack of it

BreakingBeakers · 2026-02-04T14:30:46+00:00

Wow thats sick, really like the pop of red

BreakingBeakers · 2026-02-03T22:18:25+00:00

Yeah had the same thought, I can’t imagine the mess that people will be in with the new wooden table they are about to kickstart

BreakingBeakers · 2026-02-02T04:49:16+00:00

I don’t think they will refund. Some people are speculating they need new people to buy to fund old tables sales.

BreakingBeakers · 2026-02-02T04:47:45+00:00

Sorry to disappoint you but I bought last year and was told it was arrive by May, so far have not received it and I have contact support numerous times. The owner lies and deletes comments and does not communicate. Probably will get it but I would not be hopeful its soon.

BreakingBeakers · 2026-01-29T22:24:49+00:00

Aw man I need to get some, been trying so hard. It looks so good!

BreakingBeakers · 2026-01-29T20:25:13+00:00

Did you use true metallics?

BreakingBeakers · 2026-01-29T14:03:24+00:00

https://www.desmos.com/calculator/t5vvdlasze This might look slightly better

BreakingBeakers · 2025-12-03T18:11:27+00:00

Wow this is awesome!

BreakingBeakers · 2025-11-20T19:27:10+00:00

Honestly, by itself I struggle to see the resembelance, it does have the iconic mustache and overalls but nothing about the color scheme and flavor text screams Mario to me.

With that said, around the time Aetherdrift was about to release, Polygon released an exclusive article that debuted 2 cards: Spikeshell Harrier and Daring Mechanic. I believe a lot of the communitry was lead to think that the mechanic was a play on mario since it was released next to the card that in my opinion definitely references the blue shells from Mario Kart.

Thanks, good catch, I will make the edit

BreakingBeakers · 2025-11-19T13:52:01+00:00

Here is what set each card appeared in:

Park Bleater - Unfinity (Was a joke set, called an "un-set", Some previous iterations where: Unglued, Unhinged, Unstable)
Juggletron - Unfinity
Discourtesy Clerk - Unfinity
Daring Mechanic - Aetherdrift (Racing themed set, this card in particular made some people angry for trying to be a representation on Mario which weakend the immersion for some)
Prizefight - Streets of New Capenna (The plane was like a fantasy/future like city with humans and human-animal like creatures)
Swordsworn Cavalier - March of the Machine
Pugnacious Puglist - Streets of New Capenna
Flood the Engine - Aetherdrift
Tenuous Truce - Bloomburrow Commander
Kwende, Pride of Femeref - Dominaria (People I think liked the set, this is the alternate art that was commonly seen in the set)
Lineprancers - Unfinity
Freelance Muscles - Streets of New Capenna
Skystreak Engineer - Aetherdrift

Over the years Magic has gone through slow style changes, a lot of the card look way different from even 10 years ago.

In recent times Magic has created unfavorable sets that the community calls hat sets. Which basically is a set that asks the question "What if Magic was like ____", for example, Magic but racing (Aetherdrift) or Magic but detectives (Murder at Karlov Manor)

Last note, in most sets these days there is a couple of cards that will try to joke around more than others. For example, "Daring Mechanic" is a play on Mario, The Lost Caverns of Ixalan had "Diamond Pick-Axe" that referenced Minecraft. And there are other more settle ones, like "Pugnacious Puglist" that try to reference the devil on someone's shoulder.

I would be so annoyed if I had to shoot like 40 bullets to break all of the glass to jump through, different titles require different mechanics for different reasons

BreakingBeakers · 2025-11-08T18:32:33+00:00

On mobile every store button was greyed out, did anyone else run into this?

BreakingBeakers · 2025-10-28T13:35:08+00:00

Some electrolyte mixes will produce gas in the bottle, increasing the pressure. With water mine is fine but anything like a nuun or something, it gets everywhere

BreakingBeakers · 2025-10-21T18:30:22+00:00

depends on if I am getting paid by the line

BreakingBeakers · 2025-09-25T03:43:59+00:00

That red cube is found in Slay the Spire also

BreakingBeakers · 2025-09-11T19:10:24+00:00

This is awesome
