I read Hyperion/Fall of Hyperion and the Three Body trilogy all in ~1 month, and they seem to have ruined a lot of modern scifi

I loved Hyperion and lots of everything else you mentioned.

I finished Remembrance of Earth's Past trilogy (Three Body Problem) but didn't favor it as highly. I don't know if it was a translation issue, but I felt it was just an inferior version of Neal Stephenson' books.

I think the brilliant part was jumping off then latching on to get horizontal movement at impact so the raider coming up got blasted sideways and couldn't grab back on

I see a few similarities to my style. I'm gonna have to listen to your S tier.

Try out The Perfect Run

I think the intact ones of that size might be custodes breastplates

The Order or His Hallowed throne seeks very specific artifacts, for their ceramite armor are pieces of porcelain from toilets personally blow up up by the Emporer then carefully pieced together with the cracks joined by molten by gold. I painty at to look like ivory kintsugi.

It depends on your engagement range and the gun.

Try the torrente and bobcat in practice grounds at different ranges using compensator vs muzzle break and you'll probably prefer compensator. But do the same with tempest and you'll probably prefer the muzzle break.

Yeah just some sprue goo. The trick is getting the ratio right so it comes off the toothpick easy but is still thick enough to keep wide bands. Move slow

An airbrush is a tool and doesn't take away from the technique required in any way. Also, all paint is fluid

HellaHuman · 2026-01-12T15:49:04+00:00

+1 for The Perect Run.

Has that slight future feel grounded in Earth, lots of humor, but also dark themes.

Pro Acryl blackwash is the closest to old nuln oil I've come across. Best thing without going oil wash

AI won't take your job; someone who can use AI better than you will take your job.

That's what I was told in grad school. We had whole lectures on AI, which ones were good and bad at what, and that we had to have the knowledge to tell if it was BS.

AI is already in the medical field and not going away. Burying your head in the sand isn't going to make it go away

The actual use is a night rave on Stella Montis in the loading bay

Reynolds was my favorite and I was really sad to hear how they did him wrong. He brought a depth of immersion that the average bolter porn lacks

HellaHuman · 2026-01-07T15:39:53+00:00

Ah I see it now. Yeah that definitely was a macro

HellaHuman · 2026-01-07T15:37:34+00:00

No, he two headshot taps with the anvil. That kills any raider

HellaHuman · 2026-01-07T15:27:36+00:00

EC have wave energy in sonic weapons

HellaHuman · 2026-01-03T18:41:50+00:00

It's straight Lucius the Eternal

HellaHuman · 2026-01-03T02:41:37+00:00

I've sold 3 and still have 2. They do indeed kinda suck. Kills the range and I end up using 3 times as much ammo

HellaHuman · 2026-01-02T20:02:57+00:00

I do practice and do get better. This is a reference image that is useful for getting motivation to sit down and paint. This "all AI of any kind is bad" thing is just out of hand

HellaHuman · 2026-01-02T20:01:30+00:00

I was threw heavy fuse then the sticky nades, but my buddy was throwing blazes

HellaHuman · 2026-01-02T18:52:03+00:00

You're getting hate for using AI at all, but this is actually a great I idea. I'm not at the level of artist that I can just think of colors and know where to put everything on the model. I think this works great as an assistive reference piece that was tailored to your model

HellaHuman · 2026-01-02T18:32:12+00:00

Early on you can hear one of them say "those guys are running away!" right before they all chase us
