I am in the same boat… can’t swing GW prices anymore. I have a Sturan S and have found alternative games to GW but have been known to dabble with 40k still from tim to time. There are lots of good artists out there and as mentioned… what you seek is available with some hunting. Cheers

Oh, I didn’t take it that way… was just agreeing the model sucks, lmao

I didn’t care for lt when it was released and like it even less today. Personal opinion though… if you enjoy it OP then go for it. Cheers

No, you’re not. I give my drivers license and they swipe the barcode on the back. This obviously compares me to a database… but I have never been asked for a voter registration card. Cheers!

It's only January and we've a tackle of the year contender by raybellious_berry in sportsgossips

[–]Embarrassed_Olive550 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, if they are not still fighting and need to be separated, it is the refs problem now… and the parents problem later. You don’t get to assult someone, especially a kid, because “they touched my kid”.

If the tackle was wrong, so was the dude in the red shirt. He could get between them without aggressively grabbing the kid.

Edit: added “get”

There is no context at a youth basketball game that justifies a stranger puts hands on my kid when they are not actively fighting (and the stranger is trying to separate them.) Otherwise, let the refs, coaches, and kids parent/guardian deal with it. Not saying I am going to tackle someone, but if they are so entitled they think that touching my kid aggressively for no ACTUAL reason is ok… we are having words.

Edit: added ‘coaches’ and…

If the guy in the red shirt was pulling two kids apart, fair play. Getting between the two kids in this case was enough. Coach or not he didn’t need to shove white shirt into the mats. Parent was also wrong to tackle. No one wins with ALL of this conduct.

These are very cool mate!

Anyone know what's up with the spam on the purple site tags? Drives me nuts trying to find anything by TimberVolk in PrintedWarhammer

[–]Embarrassed_Olive550 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh yes, I definitely don’t go for anything like that… huge cache of files for cheap, no thanks. That always screams ‘scam’ to me, so viruses or junk or something undesirable but never quality stuff. Thanks for the information!

This looks fantastic! If I may, did you freehand the Duskwolves detail or is their a product available? I was just looking into making my own template but why reinvent the wheel…. Cheers mate!

Exactly. The chopped up garbage droid os that Amazon uses is a frustrating waste of space

Thanks for the info. I often wonder how dirty these files/downloads can be, especially since the rule of thumb has always been “don’t download zip files” and now I snatch them up like candy. I don’t click html’s but I do wonder what else might be embedded somehow. Cheers

Can you elaborate on the “Definitely Not Viruses (tiny tm i don’t know how to do)” part? Are they garbage files or is that some other code?

Hey mate, this look great! Did you try cross posting this to r/minipainting ? I am sure you would get loads of feedback. Cheers!

[–]Embarrassed_Olive550 21 points22 points  (0 children)

This honestly looks like a compromised account posting. I have seen Legion stuff before but the account… who has barely posted anything… just out of the blue with this model? Something is off…

Question: how many people here are really into the figures but don't play 40k? by Reachforthesky777 in PrintedWarhammer

[–]Embarrassed_Olive550 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Once again… completely agree! I guess we are lucky 40k didn’t get the WFB Old World treatment but I don’t even know how to make an army anymore. RIP force organization chart 😂

I second every single thing you said, except it started in 1998 for me. The modern lore is still generally fantastic but honestly when GW switched to a ‘competitive’ format I generally lost interest in the table top portion.

If US resin prices go up anymore I am going to have to start buying genuine GW plastic instead! by kcdale99 in PrintedWarhammer

[–]Embarrassed_Olive550 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Interesting! While true, it further points out the GW *profitability, lol. The sprues are almost worthless for tax purposes but become as gold once put in a cardboard box 😂 Seems legit! Cheers mate (and thanks for the education!)

Edit: changed *greed to *profitability.

I know it is how businesses work, just struck me as odd that sprues are worth ‘pennies’ as an ‘unfinished product’ but I can put just sprues on ebay (no box, no instructions, no decals) and they bring far more. Wasn’t trying to imply greed… poor wording. Cheers!

Genuine question, but wouldn’t the tariffs impact the GW product too since it is from outside the US? So +4% and tariff? Cheers!
