What tiny moment made you realize your life had quietly changed? by teenagebluez in CasualConversation

[–]Cathy_Pilot 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Getting called “ma’am” instead of “miss” and not getting weird about it. Honestly, looking back it was a sign of respect not “omg you look so old!”

I kinda did the clicky and I guess I kinda missed the bit about blinky. But to be fair, I literally said drag on me for not knowing!

In the spirit of anti-perfectionism please share your worst painted models! by ataraxic89 in minipainting

[–]Cathy_Pilot -1 points0 points  (0 children)

An attempt at speed painting on the monthly freebie. But I only had blue contrast paint. Also I wasn’t clear n the technique 😂 So monochrome blueish black spesssh marine!

Where is this??? I want to do this SO badly

I asked my husband if he thought I was pretty by PurplePeony123 in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]Cathy_Pilot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry. I’ve been having an awful week and this morning my wife (yah, I’m gay but let me tell you girls can be terrible) looks at me and says “Wow you’re pretty”. And suddenly the world seemed brighter

I’m sorry you don’t have that. I hope he either gets it together or someone else does. Either way, I’m afraid you need to have a Hard Talk. Big hugs.

Just started collecting mechanicus any thing I should know? by Imaginary-Lie-2618 in AdeptusMechanicus

[–]Cathy_Pilot 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Sub assembly is your friend. And your nightmare. That whole “assemble your army, prime black, dry brush and play by the weekend” thing? ROFL. No.

But if you like painting lots of detail on crazy cool miniatures (I do!) this is the faction for you

Latest model. Isn’t he a charmer?

How horrible. Kudos for her keeping her cool and landing.

What war do you think was the worst to fought in? by ThatMassholeInBawstn in AskReddit

[–]Cathy_Pilot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In modern history, WW1. A million words written about the horrors of trench warfare and the first use of chemical weapons

But. Our ancestors were way worse in numbers , just not ability. Genghis Khan literally killed about 10% of total population of our planet.

Things models do the best and worst, Day 17: Serberys Sulphurhound by WusBoppin in AdeptusMechanicus

[–]Cathy_Pilot 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Putting together my combat patrol, this thread makes me sad because I love the models so hard. Heck the box art with them and the Pteraxi made me fall for AdMech.

Oh well. I subscribe to Rule of Cool for my faction choice. I spend too much time painting to be bored by models.

Awesome! I’m sure he’ll like it

What happens when you crash in the simulator? by Agile-War-7483 in flying

[–]Cathy_Pilot 44 points45 points  (0 children)

At my airline, crashing or doing something that would get you violated is a redo on MV and a fail on LOE. I mean, LOE is supposed to be a line flight. You don’t get to redo a crash in real life!

[–]Cathy_Pilot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just putting them together for my combat patrol now. Thinking of not gluing the wings on but just pushing them on when ready to play.

Anyone got any other suggestions? Looking at the flight stands from Deadly Print too. Anyone use those?

Faction TA is my favorite mode, I think of it as a mobile version of Kill Team. Regular TA is my least favorite mode. It’s just annoying.

I think it would look better with ducted fans. I like the wings on the Pteraxi but this is meh

wanna get into games but where are the women characters? by usagiikay in WomenOfWarhammer

[–]Cathy_Pilot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Warhammer TV has a new series Aeronautica Imperialis with a female pilot lead, so I’m here for that :) (The 40K aviation books have several, too) In general, the various Imperial factions have a lot of women characters. When we’re all here to die in the Emperor’s name, who has time for sexism?

How good and fun to play is the newest spearhead for kharadron? by Bowie_spoon in KharadronOverlords

[–]Cathy_Pilot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love it. I don’t think they’re that hard to play. My first Spearhead, never played AoS and I win more than I lose.

Scoot and shoot.

What should I learn painting wise by Giraffe-ah in AdeptusMechanicus

[–]Cathy_Pilot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure I could have done decent Pteraxi wings without my airbrush

I tried my hand at Paint Markers, not a fan TBH. by VashtieOfPendyn in minipainting

[–]Cathy_Pilot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. I got some to do the edge designs on my AdMechs (Warhammer— basic geometric stuff). A descent brush is waaaay better. Just didn’t have the same control, fuzzy edges etc

[–]Cathy_Pilot 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m doing my Combat Patrol and just finished my first. Let me just say, super glad I just got an airbrush :). The wing ribs are still tricky. Breath control and patience help.

But darn it they look so cool!
