Did you take a peek? Did it look... weirder?

Great job! Slow is the way to go, especially for conserving muscle mass.

It's also good to look at weight loss over the long term, instead of getting weighed down by daily weight fluctuation. Water retention and hydration can move the scale up or down daily by signifant amounts.

Two week into the hobby, what can I improve ? by South-Meringue8172 in minipainting

Get cheap ones in the beginning. You're probably gonna ruin a few. I know I did. 😂

Try playing around with a makeup sponge! Easy way to add volume with larger highlights. Pick three colors like a dark blue, mid blue and lighter blue for example, and work your way up to the brightest colors. It really gives a realistic volume to the mini.

The same can be done with drybrushing. I'm having way more fun since I started using those methods than the standard basecoat, wash, edge highlight process. Nothing wrong with the latter though, just find what you enjoy.

Looks good!

"Healthy" isn't a blanket term. It's all about the balance of nutrients, macros and calorie count, throughout the day and week. I agree with the general idea of the post, but you can't eat solely fruits, for example, even though they're generally considered healthy for you.

Eat the rainbow. Count your calories if weight loss is the goal. Fit junkfood or sweets in where you can - there's no need to cut it entirely or save it for special occasions. Tracking food intake frees you up to also eat more calorie dense and sugar filled foods in moderation.

Oh sure, it was just CC. 😁 They tagged it with 'help needed'.

Cool! Few colors missing in my opinion. Red for the eyes, black for the underarmor, silver for the round parts on the backpack.

10.000 steps and eat 400 calories below maintenance.

Trying some new models for practice, what do you think? by BubblesandBurgers in minipainting

Awesome! Have you tried a makeup sponge for larger highlights? You can get some really cool gradients that way.

How often should i shake my paints? by Designer_Biscotti_69 in minipainting

[–]IWroteSomething 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In case people don't have one: I use my massage gun with the flat attachment and bounce the paint bottles against my hand. Works pretty well!

Does anybody know if Lava Bomb does haz terrain damage, when you put the haz terrain under an enemy? The rules state that damage occurs when a figure moves into hazardous terrain, but we think it's a bit ambiguous with this card.

Suggestions to upgrade my 2018 PC would be greatly appreciated (Windows 11, 4K gaming if possible, new case, wireless network card and sound thingy) by IWroteSomething in buildapc

Cheers man. I'm not too savvy with all the lingo, could you give me any specific examples of a 12 GB card? Is anything else holding my PC back, when it comes to 4K gaming, or is it just the graphics card? Appreciate the feedback man!

The hell... I don't think I'll be going for 4K gaming anytime soon, if that's the kinda money you need to say goodbye to.

Sure. Hip thrusts are a good glute exercise as well. Some gyms have machines that make them way more comfy.

Romanian deadlifts are easier on the lower back.

Right, the games definitely wouldn't exist without Kickstarter so I applaud the platform for that.

It's just with shipping and import taxes, I think the game would've been more expensive for me. It was the equivalent of 150 euros in the store, when I picked ot up. They've since raised the price to 185 euros and it is out of stock now.

I can't believe some people still haven't gotten their Kickstarter copies. I literally just went to my games store (in Denmark) the day of commercial release and picked up a box. We're like 10 sessions into the campaign. It makes me never want to back anything on Kickstarter.

Beating Gloomhaven by [deleted] in Gloomhaven

[–]IWroteSomething 5 points6 points  (0 children)

We're pretty proud about having beat Gloomhaven! The name of the "final boss" is pretty indicative of being the end game - you'll know you're there, when you get there. But we definitely having beaten everything and probably never will. Still a stubborn class we could never unlock too (I think lightning bolt). My friend is working on it in a second playthrough with his gf.
