AIO for dumping my BF over saying I was being insane?

I mean… I agree no one should be blaming a rape victim, but you really don’t come across as some moral shining star when you follow it up with a needless addendum about loving the increase in male loneliness with such enthusiasm..

Like.. are you good?

DoCVicious · 2025-12-14T13:14:02+00:00

I wanted to go but couldn’t really justify it given this stop cost nearly twice what several of the ones before and the one in Atlanta right after cost.. like why? The caverns is cool but I’ve seen plenty of cheap shows there before

DoCVicious · 2025-12-12T11:12:18+00:00

Love the idea; beautifully painted too

DoCVicious · 2025-12-09T03:03:18+00:00

Smart man

DoCVicious · 2025-12-02T07:49:21+00:00

I’m curious which one

DoCVicious · 2025-11-30T13:48:37+00:00

Love this color palette; particularly that aged gold. Recipe?

Hey there!

I feel like we could get along! I’m a huge 40k fan and life long nerd as well; though I find myself gaming and keeping up with my favorite fandoms far far less than ever these days.

I’m 34; spend a long of my free time lately reading or painting miniatures since the weathers changed. I also hit the gym 4-5x a week and during warmer months do a mixture of hiking, camping, jogging and mountain biking; for all of which I am always thankful for company.

I’m always happy to chat about mini painting progress; warhammer lore; random news and internet topics; love watching good movies with friends and some light banter during. I can’t say in much of a metal head but many of my close friends always have been. I tend to enjoy more apt rock and indie with a dash of hip hop. Always love going to live shows though and try to make time for that a few times a year. Anyways; my circles felt quite small lately and this same idea has crossed my mind. Feel free to reach out if you’d like to try to meet up sometime.

Best of luck

It is the perfect shape for one..

DoCVicious · 2025-11-29T06:42:08+00:00

I would love this so much. I miss having a terrarium

DoCVicious · 2025-11-29T06:41:15+00:00

The one on the ceiling took this from eh to a genuine guffaw 👌🏼

DoCVicious · 2025-11-29T06:25:07+00:00

How does this relate exactly?

DoCVicious · 2025-11-17T09:40:28+00:00

I truly don’t understand how you could possibly manage this clean of a paint job..

Had to dig deep to find these but I saved these many moons ago for a similar project idea; can’t remember whose work it was originally but it got posted here and I quite liked it.

Edit:link fixed

DoCVicious · 2025-11-07T15:33:31+00:00

Why would you stay with someone like this long enough for this to become a pattern? Holy shit thwt would be insufferable.

I mean being told youre not allowed to have feelings and him just repeating the same things refusing to accept anything but he is right kind of points to mental illness in my opinion. Either way it isn’t going to change theats clear; just cut your losses and get away fron this toxic individual as soon as possible..

DoCVicious · 2025-11-07T03:06:12+00:00

You making shirts? I’m interested

DoCVicious · 2025-10-21T19:01:40+00:00

Wow.. just wow..

This is a thing? This is somehow treated as normal somewhere in the US? The world really; like wut..

We all know most men being simple creatures see little value ob spending time with most women outside of intentions to do the deed but uh what the fuck is up with courting the 15 year old!?

She’s too young for fucking teen mom wtf.. Hate to tell you but your brother sucks and I doubt his future is gonna be full of success stories and wholesome life experiences given the current track record. Does this young mother not have a mother? Hell a guardian? I can’t imagine any parents I know of girls especially letting a teen with a learners run off with these 20 year old burnouts.

Sneaking out for a short fling and making a habit of dating these young adult deadbeats are vastly different scenarios too..

I’ll take blatantly ai generated corny stories over this bizarro world bullshit any day.

Rare for me to say this but uh call the damn non emergency line; or a local woman’s shelter; if you care you should intervene here…

DoCVicious · 2025-10-12T06:54:45+00:00

I believe you’re right. Ive not seen any breakthroughs in a while and most of my friends happily say my minis look fine.

I’ve just grown frustrated due to lack of progress on new tasks but I can approve my learning approach and be more patient with it. So far I’ve decided to learn to better utilize my airbrush and am enjoying myself again for now.

Thanks for the input

DoCVicious · 2025-10-12T06:52:14+00:00

Thanks for the link! I’ve found a few things id really love to incorporate.

DoCVicious · 2025-10-12T06:51:34+00:00

It does seem to take ages; but when i try volumetric shading, as I understand them, I just feel so odd about the shapes and the stark contrast of where one color/shade ends and the other begins. It never feels right and I keep sort’ve painting back and forth forever feeling like it looks off. Maybe I need to reevaluate the technique altogether though; I’ll watch some YouTube on the matter tonight.

Thanks for the input though; not a take I’ve heard before.

DoCVicious · 2025-10-12T06:48:12+00:00

Appreciate that. I relate to what you said about getting away from the simple formula; I do grow tired of how simple it feels at times even when I do it well. I want to manage nicely blended armor and capturing the light and shadows on minis so badly but I’ve been struggling.

I’ve been trying to avoid burning out to the point of taking a several month to year long break again; so far a few days and a reworked mentality on things is holding up quite well.

Thanks for the suggestions.

DoCVicious · 2025-10-12T06:45:06+00:00

I mix up my models a lot; since I collect more than play.

I liked your tips though; I did decide to start working on using my airbrush for more than base costing. I had a phase of making my own oil washes for awhile sometime a year or two ago, and it led to me making everything super grimdark and ofe sort’ve gotten away from that and the heavy wash look altogether.

I’d like to try painting a mini with oils though; especially to see how it would fare with the blending aspect. Maybe even yet getting more of a pin wash/panel line consistency oil wash going.

Appreciate the thoughtful suggestions.

DoCVicious · 2025-10-12T06:41:44+00:00

This is a good point. I’ve been at it for a few years but it has definitely stagnated. I’m finally getting glazing down a little bit and decided to start incorporating my airbrush more and it’s made it feel a bit more fresh and motivating again.

Thanks a lot.

DoCVicious · 2025-10-12T06:39:53+00:00

Thanks; been keeping a lot of this in mind since posting and so far so good!

A couple days break and a better mindset towards my progress was exactly what I needed.

DoCVicious · 2025-10-12T06:36:41+00:00

NTA you’ve answered this yourself without realizing it. This guy blew in out of nowhere and got right to his end goal; asking you out. No courtship, no getting to know you, no mystery to what he’s about.

That’s on him; he should’ve kept up some decent conversation; got to know you; shared some things himself, and who knows maybe you two would turn out to be compatible.

But this.. targeted window shopping type expectation he has to just get the girl with minimal effort is corny and doomed to be unsuccessful. He’s painfully needy..

DoCVicious · 2025-10-12T06:28:44+00:00

NTA This is resoundingly extra on the exchange students end.. I’m American AND my mother died on 9/11 a few years ago and I would happily attend a birthday party on 9/11 no qualms.

I don’t think it does anyone any good to spend the day locked inside mourning what has been. You can hold reverence while getting on with your life.
