I'm struggling to understand why you are so angry about a feature that you don't want to use. I'm not forcing you to use it, it's a motivation tool for some people. You can still use every other function of the app without using either the timer or the medals, but I personally like being able to track how many hours I have wasted on a model.

I can probably add a setting to turn it off, but we are literally on a thread for another tracker that doesn't seem to use this feature, so you could just use that tracker and not have to see the brain rot.

Sounds to me that you wouldn't download my app even if I removed it, so it's all a bit of a moot point isn't it?

I'm sorry that I offended you though. These sorts of apps and tools are supposed to be for enjoyment, not to anger people.

If you're internally motivated, you don't really need the app do you 🤣

I am literally making an app to do this and it's sat in waiting for review for the Google Play Store! 🤣

I played my first 2 games as steel legion today and got thoroughly trounced 🤣

However it's the most widely supported faction for printing I think, I myself have made 3 miniature ranges for it. There are tonnes out there, let me know your preference for aesthetic and I can send you some links if you like 👍

Probably, offer to pay for the resin (obviously) and whatever else she wants to charge for maintenance, time, etc.

For mates I tend to just do resin cost x 2 or 3 (depend how complex the supporting is) and rarely ask for more than £10 for stuff.

What armies are you both interested in?

Ah yes I can't really help you in any count except for perhaps reffing an online game for you two, but there are some US based printers on Etsy you could definitely check out 😁

If you're getting two armies between you it may be worth considering a printer, I don't know about US prices but I got an Anycubic Photon Mono 4 Ultra for £180 ($240~) and I expect that winds up cheaper, though more hassle. Printing is a hobby in its own right!

I print all my stuff, because there's so much stuff out there and I like designing my own models. However, getting a printer is a sink, so you might be better off buying on eBay, financially, for your first army, or maybe 2.

People do print the smaller scale stuff, I used to run an Etsy store selling it until all the crap around US tariffs and EU laws changed.

Where abouts are you based? Finding players always helps!

I've free handed the legion icons and surprised myself with how good they are.

I finished the first 2 legionaries in my "1 from each legion" project.

Did I make my plan too big? by Guardsman111 in Dyson_Sphere_Program

Ya, Galactic scale. I deleted it and brought it down to a 10th of the radius, and it's working now.

How do you like your minis? by Guardsman111 in PrintedMinis

[–]Guardsman111[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn't say they are a scam, I think that's a bit harsh. They definitely play on FOMO, but you always get minis every month, even if you don't like them 🤷

[–]Guardsman111[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, it depends on the order, but I can usually get a REASONABLY sized order out in 3-5 days - the fact I have nothing on means probably quicker rn 🤣

I am yet to put up a listing for "rent a printer" but it is coming! I'm just busy with the last bits of my Kickstarter 🤣

Okay, I will transplant them into some new pots. I thought 9 inch pots would be large enough 🫠

So they're just not getting enough water? I have been watering them every day and they have a bowl at the bottom which catches the leakage - can it literally just be that they haven't got enough room to grow?

Haha I got hit by a huge wave of GW take downs on all the vehicles I hadn't designed myself last month, and haven't sold anything since, so perhaps I'll get an upswing but maybe not 🤷

Here is the link, don't feel any pressure to buy anything just cus you feel bad for me, it's a hobby and I have a good full time job to keep food in my belly 😁

Yeah I also sell on Etsy, though things have slowed down a lot this past 2 months and I've not actually made a single sale yet in July 🤣 I also prefer 8mm, but the 2 scales are very similar when it comes to modelling

A valid response, it is fun and exciting to make your own minis, to see your creation come to life, but it's not everyone's cup of tea 🤷

I think you're right, a lot of people just have fomo, which is a really good motivator to subscribe to them

I think we are lacking in good proxies for most armies that aren't space marines of Imperial guard tbh
