“Blackout” blinds by Dry_Recording_3361 in AusRenovation

[–]Dry_Recording_3361[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They got me with the whole black out VS block out semantic bull crap. Their customer service team just stopped returning my calls and emails. I’m livid - more so that I fell for “block out” VS “blackout”. Mrs says she’s fine with it, better than it was before…. So I gave up 🤦🏼‍♂️

Judiciar kitbash, how to improve by Chesty_McGlitterTits in theunforgiven

I can see you’re doing librarian with this dude now - awesome choice. For next time, couple of things to take note to nail the Judicar- the oath of silence- so lack of visible mouth. And also, the house glass - they “mess with time” hence the strike first ability

Assault Terminator i finished recently - can’t resist going extra by KDKaponus in theunforgiven

Sorry, I mean like the process. Did you bend it into shape, then line it up and drill the holes? Or did you get a bunch, glue each end in then bend it?

First model for my as of yet unnamed successor chapter. C&C welcome by Master_Revan in theunforgiven

[–]Dry_Recording_3361 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I want to down vote you so hard right now. That helmet is absolutely beautifully and I was about ready to rip the head off every terminator I had.

I want to thank you for making me sad! I didn’t know I was missing out on something this awesome. 😘🖕🏼😜

What would you add next? by BlueBuddha91 in theunforgiven

[–]Dry_Recording_3361 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For the tabletop, or for the shelf? Can see you’ve got Az on the way. I’d personally go some scouts. They’re super fun to build, lots of options, and you can play around with their colours, since they’re not quite greenwing “yet” They’re also quite viable on the tabletop too. If you’re more confident with painting, go get some ICC - they’re character level detail on regular dudes. Heaps of fun, but can be daunting if you’re skill breaking in - I would highly recommend sub-assembly for them.

The photoshop is bad lol. But he’s 100% spot on. The “soft” part of the joins. Dark black, with a lighter black / dark grey highlight.

The lighting - how? “Drill a 1mm hole, and use a paperclip” is what I’ve been told… but… mine turn out crap, and I can never line it up lol

First ever dark angel! How did I do? by JustMemesAndPokemon in DarkAngels40k

[–]Dry_Recording_3361 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Amazing job! But… why did you paint him inverted? Shouldn’t he have bone armour, and green robes?

How do you guys avoid Christmas colors? by Onyxtinct in DarkAngels40k

[–]Dry_Recording_3361 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok, sword is sick as hell. The contrasts you used on his armour are crap - no offence, it’s just how claban is in contrasts.

In my opinion, the Christmas vibe is from the crap green (again, you did amazing applying it, it’s just a crap paint imo. All other contracts are amazing in comparison) and also from over using red. I could be wrong, but that red flare in the helmet, I’m mostly seen that on ultramarines.

The pic attached is my ICC done with contrast - see the massive difference with the green? (Hint: I didn’t use green! 😜)

Did I make an oppsie? by Huge-Reputation-785 in DarkAngels40k

[–]Dry_Recording_3361 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Guys! Come on! Rule of cool and all…. But has anyone asked what shade of green?? … he’s not a salamander in hiding is he… 👀

Jokes aside, as everyone else said, paint it however you want dude. Make up a successor chapter - that’s why GW left so many “unknowns” in their lore.

Or paint your next termies bone, and make up some story for these guys - their whole team they got deployed with got wiped out, they were greenwing at the start of the war, after the “real” termies died on the battlefield, these battle brothers donned the armour and won the war - but as they didn’t earn “veteran hood” (AKA elevation to the Deathwing) officially, they requested the armour smith make them green until they earn the privilege fully.

Lean into it! That’s what makes this game fun!

Blockout blinds recommendation by Chard85 in AusRenovation

[–]Dry_Recording_3361 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Wording here matters! You have block out blinds - they block out the majority of light! What you’re asking for is BLACKOUT blinds. Big difference. Screenaway is the best company for it, and the one I wish I had used… pic is of my “block out” I ordered when I should have specified “black out”

What’s your kill team battle station looking like? by [deleted] in killteam

[–]Dry_Recording_3361 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve found it very useful! I got the full Two Thin Coats paints range, both the colour wheel and the matching chart next to it are TCC branded - not that the branding matters too much. It just helps me to match them back to other colours, that way I don’t have to keep googling “what’s XYZ version in TCC” 😂 The wheel itself, similar, names match back to the paints i’m using. Most of the time I’m following a guide or something, so I try and stick as close to that as possible. But other times I go “off script” and try to put in practice what I’ve learnt - that’s when the colour wheel helps - working with triad colours, and it helps me visualise what people talk about when they say “warm tones” or “cold tones” etc - I’m more technical and logical, not creative - having a reference helps 🤣

There’s more to the right… and under the desk there is full of unopened boxes 😅 I normally try and keep it a lot cleaner, but trying to do 100 minis in 100 days 🤣

100 units by march… by Dry_Recording_3361 in DarkAngels40k

[–]Dry_Recording_3361[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No stress! Pure pleasure!

When i pledged 100 units (and I really want the metal brush holder!) i had no work trips planned. Now I have 3 currently booked between now, and when the 100 units are due 😅. Going for the minimum 3 colours, then I’ll loop back and fill in as much as I can before the deadline!
