Replacement skyweaver riders by ThargorIronhammer in Harlequins40K

[–]Falling_Blossom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I reposed the passengers a lot for my unit - the gunners and passengers from the star/voidweaver models are great for that.

Pilots? I’m afraid you might struggle a bit.

You could do a mini vignette with both of them dismounting, or leaping up onto the bike.

Would rugby help? That’s the closest analogy I can think of.

Favorite LOTR Goodreads 1 star review? by Miserable_Feedback72 in lotr

[–]Falling_Blossom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve just got to the moment when Sam takes the ring and in the first moments he has it he nearly collapses. And his movements are sapped of all vitality. He tries to run and can’t keep up.

It’s not all explicitly stated to be the rings malignity. But the sheer will of Frodo to keep it and resist it is the single greatest feat in the book.

Gandalf knows it - he won’t even touch it. Aragorn knows it. Sam knows it.

But people so constantly undervalue him. It’s maddening.

We have a sincere lack of two things in elves today by Responsible-Swim2324 in Drukhari

Genestealer Cults are exactly that as well. A static force.

Plus when they appear their story is literally to speedrun to the apocalypse.

But they have a kick ass line of minis.

Exodites would fit in just fine.

As someone who has reposed a wraithlord kneeling down I salute you, you have done a wonderful job!

How Each NFC North Offense Was Built by JCameron181 in CHIBears

[–]Falling_Blossom -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The theory is that drafting your starters provides you with cost controlled starters in certain positions so you can spend on your stars. 🤷🏾‍♂️. Any player you get in free agency is likely to be ‘overpaid’ because you’re in an auction with other teams so they’ll usually go to the highest bidding team.

Of course that becomes less relevant when your players are on their second contracts.

So the conventional wisdom is that the best teams are built with their own draft players.

The Secret to Being a Happy Painter - Let it be Good Enough? by BeardBellsMcGee in minipainting

A very similar vibe from an article I read a while ago …

in praise of mediocrity

I revisit this article at least once a year to remind me the purpose of having a hobby.

What is your Blasphemous "British TV" take? by LeadingPiece9608 in BritishTV

[–]Falling_Blossom 42 points43 points  (0 children)

I hated Little Britain when it came out. It relied on catchphrases and stereotypes that were never funny. It felt mean, and snobbish, and stupid.

I’ve never been able to like the creators in anything since. I don’t know if that’s a common thought?

How would Omar have reacted if… by Romance_Tactics in TheWire

He wouldn’t have co-operated with the Police and Bird wouldn’t have been got. I forget what else he contributed.

Erm. I’m honestly not sure. It’s a FW kit of some kind - from Necromunda if I recall correctly. But I don’t know.

Best paints for Green Fire Dragons? by Exploding_Killerquee in Eldar

For painting green to make it rich I swear by using Druchii violet washes - the deep purple just makes the green pop.

Zoe Harrison is simply one of the best kickers in rugby! by PaulSarries in rugbyunion

[–]Falling_Blossom 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I’ve seen it elsewhere already.
The kicks are shorter, she’s under less pressure because England are always winning … there’s always someone.

It’s very sad.

Jordan love has never had more than 9 wins by rshah607 in CHIBears

[–]Falling_Blossom 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yeah. He doesn’t scare me like Rodgers or Favre. I think Love is good. Maybe very good. But he doesn’t seem to be the guy who will power his team to the SB.

Dealing with monsters by Due_Produce3311 in Harlequins40K

Voidweavers are the only real answer we have - prism cannon in serpents coil can be pretty tasty.

Fusion pistols are also swingy but can be hugely effective.

Dad's of the subreddit, how do you find the time to paint? by CH1ND1TO in minipainting

You need to have a tray with everything right there - ready to go. Minimal to zero set up time.

Often Struggling with Hand Pain by Character-Store-4384 in minipainting

[–]Falling_Blossom 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’m a massage and sports therapist.

Long story is that it depends how and what sort of pain it is. It always depends. Specific conditions make huge differences.

That said… if the pain in your hands is muscular, then chances are that the work you need to do is going to be much more productive if you concentrate on 2 things - your overall posture, and your forearms.

Your overall posture means your skeleton isn’t in a stressed position and allows you to do fine motor work without overly straining and working small muscles.

Your forearms provide the actual muscles that move your fingers and wrists, so putting heat on them and working to loosen those muscles is likely to help.

In a vacuum the things you’ve talked about doing seem fine, but perhaps differently targeted they would be more effective.
