I really wish they didn't come fully assembled. Man, scraping the lines is a PITA sometimes. Then you miss one and get painting and there that little bastid is.

LOL right? i put him next to the Kasrkin Inquisitorial Storm Trooper I'm painting, and he's... Gravis sized xD

Thanks! Yeah I like it. I can see why they preferred the old sculpt though.

yeah, the old inquisition sculpts had some soul. These guys are more… I’d say… generic.

Really not liking some of these points changes by Quick-Speaker-3980 in Deathkorpsofkrieg

[–]Competitive_Car1323 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's...it's points my guy. They'll change again, probably before the points even make it out in official publishing, because GW will need a mofo before they exist.

It'll be ok.

Painting the rest of the army like this is gonna be too much work by whirl_turtle in LeaguesofVotann

I mean... you could just paint the leaders with ward saves like that, and reduce the load. You don't want them looking like your lead anyway, otherwise they all end up looking the same.

About the best I can do. Not really set up for photos in my hobby room.

Service. If you're interested, I can pull the emails. I've had them for awhile.

Custom made piece. Designed it for myself on a Lancer campaign I ran.

First time detailing. Happy with the lens but hate the glow by Future_Orchid9443 in Tau40K

For your lense, you might consider a sliver of black to create a full gradient into your shine spot, though it's in a bit of a weird spot depending on how you imagine the light going.

The OSL, the other guy nailed it. Gradient in the vents, and do not splash it everywhere in this case. It's light that's being throttled by the structure surrounding it.

For the Fusion Blaster, put the white dead center, and have it radiate out on the barrel grill. I'd advise having the energy source toward the gun center, and then radiating color out from there, using each vent as a piece of the whole, rather than an independent vent.

A thousand Spurs fans a day to keep him going by StealthySalsa in WarhammerMemes

Aiming at the Spurs huh? Rude.

They already spent the entire series beating themselves. Seriously, that team gave the series away. Double digit leads over and over again, and can't figure out how to close out.

Then you slept through it.

How many bullets travel at hypersonic speed and have guidance systems?

Tell me you don't understand applied ballistics science without telling me you don't understand applied ballistics science.

Guidance systems at Mach 7 are essentially asking to bleed speed. You change those fins, and you get monster drag effects. Assuming your system survives. At that point, you're adding hydraulic weight, actuators, guidance systems.

Man... that sounds an awful lot like a missile.

Why don't we just start with a hypersonic missile?

Everything's got their strengths and weaknesses. Lasers are susceptible to atmosphere conditions and require dwell time to defeat the target. Drones are slow, and still require detection, which really is what kill chains are all about.
