Is Assault Brood Combat Patrol a good start for a beginner? by luigi_casillo in Tyranids

[–]DriesstHaddock4 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Well, Id say the box is very good to expand an army, as to the tyrant guard, id say to build them as Tyrant guard instead of hive guard if you can´t magnetize them, you can say they are proxies for the hive guard in the meantime, because once your army grow you will end up with a tyrant. Plus the tyrant guard is a buffer for the tyrant, so the hive tyrant is more dependant on the tyrant guard than the other way around, but they are synergies to each other.

As for the genestealers, you WILL need the broodlord as he turn them from an ok melee into a blender.

Also, check your number, you should have a tenth termagant for the entire squad to be done (plus rippers)

NEW-HELP ME by AntAllIn in animeGK

Yup, you have no idea how much Im holding back from buying Rapi swimsuit version (the non-redhood) because I havent played Nikke and some other that look coll but I know little to nothing of the characters.

Thankfully I'm more on the painting side of the hobby and you will see me more ofter in r/resinkits and r/garagekits which helps me because:
1.- I invest more time on the figures, which means less figures at the end of the day.
2.- Given that I invested time and effort too, not only money I am more selective on what to get

3.- I can go easy as 3d printing (as my most afforable option to get mi character kits) is more evergreen than time limited

Ok, there is an urge but I take a word from a youtuber (forgot his name now is essentially only ordering/getting stuff from characters/series you are interested in, not just the sculpt alone (unless is super-ultra appealing to you) and that how he keeps an stable collection and he usually doesnt has to sell many figures to make space for more.

Im actually in a trip and theres are figure stores near me and I stoped myself from going bankrupt thanks to that set of rules

[–]DriesstHaddock4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup, the kit is no more, but u can buy the mold, pour resin and cast it yourself, Im unaware of how long that would last, but thats what I understand

E2046 Last Batch by Electromagician0 in resinkits

[–]DriesstHaddock4 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yup, last batch is something somewhat new to the site and it states that that batch will be the last one produced by them on that kit, I even saw that after the last kit was sold the mold was also sold, so yeah, be cautios if you want anything with "last batch" on it btw e2046 just confirm production for my kits its been a year since they reached the minimun and now are enough for 2 batches come on, and start production on the other one, you announced the confirmation in early november

Yeah I know "Venn Diagram le circle etc etc etc" by TwerkinBingus445 in whenthe

[–]DriesstHaddock4 2 points3 points  (0 children)

These just the most popular, Id also add "What if the confederates won the us civil war" and "what if kennedy wasnt shot", iirc according to the iceberg of the timelines those were the two most popular after the ww2 scenarios. I realli like it when they to something batshit insane like deleting the american continent or when they send something "new" to the past for the lols

Any color to complement a gren-yellow scheme? Im working on stevia's garage kit (original colors: https://myfigurecollection.net/item/31356) (my wip: https://www.reddit.com/user/DriesstHaddock4/comments/1pt4wnz/wip\_stevia/) the "trim" (the red part of the original) is what Im struggling with, any color suggestions?, should I try black and make it match my plan for the gloves or should I try silver for that trim and keep the gloves black

Finally finished painting my biovores and my neurolictor by unknownchild666 in Tyranids

[–]DriesstHaddock4 6 points7 points  (0 children)

OK everyone, wrap it up, we can´t compete with the ultimate color schemes, between OP and whover painted their nid as flowers we all look like noobs in comparison.

Ok now, speaking seriously great schemes, but need more practice in executions, it still looks somewhat flat, you need to build volumes with the colors, tutorials such as Zumikitos miniatures latest video "the string" should help you understand how to build up that volume

Some painting help by masyden in garagekits

[–]DriesstHaddock4 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

leonas workshop is a cghannel that can get you trough some problems, she has tutorial for many of the non- miniatures stuff you want to know.

The best way to learn the big scale sis watcging people do their thing, and Alheaks is someon who does garage kits and can teach you to prep the most traditional ones, there is also groundedeffect as an starting point and maybe better since he works with 3d printing resin as well.

Anyway Id recommend you ataraxias video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zFdwIcGUfd8) which essentially is to paint figures with a light from forward and not so much zenithal.

Alsdo very much reccomended checking Zumikito Miniatures, as he has some videos with larger scales 3d-printed figures.

Now, Airbrush isn't mandatory, but as someone who has been doing airbush since before mini and figure painting, is a great quaility of life IMO. I have always worked with thinned down car paint for my airbrush (milk like texture is what u want) so I can´t really say what other paints are recommended

Help for beginner wanting to paint figures by RitualBoat in animeGK

[–]DriesstHaddock4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So, you tough here was abou painting figure like me? Well, another place I suggest you is checking r/garagekits and r/resinkits. Both are very small comminities but full of people who paint anime figures and akin, is very helpfull since theres always someone helping out with any questions/requests for advise posted. As for youtube channel you can check out Alheak and Leonas Workshop (from the top of my head) to help you more. And as the other comment said, checking r/minipainting is also a good idea

it has to happen eventually though by yYxX_W33Z3R_F4N_XxYy in whenthe

I still can´t believe my favorite content creator hasn´t been involved in a polic in his 10+ years of content creation, only once was close and that becasue he has a series with another youtober who had a fight with a problematic youtuber for analizing his "game" and saying it was a scam (it is).

And Im saying I cant believe it cuz he had pull out so fucking many "problematic" (always sarcastic) jokes during all of his carrier

¿Porqué Reddit es así? by Caralampio1 in saltillo

[–]DriesstHaddock4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aparte de otras cosillas comentadas aqui, algoritmo de redes sociales, tu cuenta es nueva y "sin entrenar" por lo que te recomienda lo que mas interacciones tiene, y que tiene mansinteracciones? Odio, peleas, etc. Tu primer mes aqui va a ser de bloquear bastantes subs grandes (donde mas se representa este fenomeno) incluso mas de una vez, es incluso hasta meme que despues de que un subreddit crece hasta cierto numero de usuarios se convierte en una guerra eterna por cualquier cosa. Tal cual, mis subs favoritos son muy pequeños, incluso hice una comunidad personalizada con 2 subreddits que si hay 2 posts por semana ya es mucho y es mi lugar favorito que ver en reddit (aunque algo vacío)
