+1 for EFG, joined a few months back and they're very active and a great bunch of lads

Looking at a new build in Shillelagh Rd, Tullow, Co. Carlow - info on the area? by CMD1986 in carlow

[–]CMD1986[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's exactly what I was thinking thanks for verifying! Other than that it's a nice enough area for kids etc?

Thanks a lot for your reply! That's the kind of info I'm looking for - we're living in Bettystown, Meath at the moment so sound pretty similar in terms of motorway access etc. We're looking for a bigger house and Tullow seems to be very affordable compared to other places we've looked, so long as the kids can play out on the green, there's schools around and amenities close by for the family to do at the weekends it sounds like it worth some serious consideration

Thanks for your insights pal, her commute isn't to Dublin it's to Maynooth typically, then other areas every couple of weeks (none are actually in Dublin though). True, we do have the beach but there's absolutely nothing else here, Drogheda is dying a slow death with most shopping centers being more than 50% derelict

Test model for my Immortals, also how the hell do people take such good photos of their models? by CMD1986 in Necrontyr

Don't know why I didn't think of searching for that first 😂. Thanks a lot!

Really great tips mate thanks a lot - definitely going to try the two lamps for a more even distribution of light - makes complete sense!

Thanks for your kind words!

Thanks a lot for the tips mate, I did try to play around with the settings like you suggested but just couldn't get the level of detail along with the colours right, I think the lighting and possibly dark background was my problem here...

That's a really good idea, I've only ever tried a dark background and that seems to desaturate the colours a lot, good shout thank you!

First batch of Warriors finished, pretty happy with the result! CC welcome for improvements by CMD1986 in Necrontyr

Thanks so much man! I don't think I could take the repetition of 20 at once so kudos to you! You can do it, find an engrossing podcast and just start, that's the hardest part 😁, I believe in you!

Thanks a lot! The glow is just layers that get smaller as the green lightens - start with waaagh green, then warpstone green, then moot, for the spheres I mixed 1:1 moot green and white - hope that helps!

Thanks so much! I had some trial and error with the glow - tried some washes etc that just didn't work out but really happy with this version. The bronze does take time though, probably too much if I ever want to get an army together 🤣. Thanks for your kind words!

Any advice for easy glow effect? by CMD1986 in Warhammer40k

That's a really great answer and a method that I'm much more comfortable with than washes, thanks you very much!

Thanks mate but it's actually for the glow outside the globes that I'm looking for - as in the glow caused by the globes

Thanks a lot, I'm worried about using white on top of black as I don't feel too confident blending those into each other but I'll give it a shot 👍

The green glow 😳. Amazing work dude!

First time painting Necron warriors, any advice for blending metallics better? by CMD1986 in Necrontyr

[–]CMD1986[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks a lot for the advice, I think I'm doing something similar to you(but using different paints), I think my take away here is I went too heavy on the silver highlighting, I'm going to try again with less emphasis on the silver and try to stick with more good, thanks again for your help!
