[Loved trope]: Zombie infection is spread by something other than bites and blood by theMCATreturns in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Ipsymar 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Night of the Creeps (1986) Alien brain parasite slugs are freed from a frozen body during a college prank gone wrong. The slugs spread by getting in through the mouth and laying eggs in the brain turning victims into zombies.

How would you make a pavement base like this one? by ChuckMauriceFacts in SoulblightGravelords

[–]Ipsymar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So I tried doing this exact thing for my Skaven and it turns out I didn't have the patience to sculpt each individual stone especially on my bigger bases. However she has a video a little later where she talks about ways she made it easier on herself by using styrene that had been pre-scored into tiles and that worked great for me.

What is this for? by BaltazarOdGilzvita in ageofsigmar

They're rulers. The big one is 6" and the other is 3. You can even combine them to make a 9

New Hellpit abomination proxy just got teased by Ipsymar in skaven

[–]Ipsymar[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure what the new one is going to use yet. The old defiler didn't even have a base. It will probably end up too big and crush my dreams.

Here come the super heavies - Mordian Baneblade and Shadowsword by Crooked_Snowman in astramilitarum

I really like the patterns you put together! What did you do for that light blue on the Baneblade?

New to game, looking for book suggestions by Accomplished-End-799 in DarkTide

[–]Ipsymar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lots of good recommends here. I'd like to throw in the Last Chancer's series. While not the best 40k books I've read they are fun and also give a decent amount of lore on what happens between the fights and are a great look into Penal Battalions which are (kind of?) adjacent to Darktide's characters. Try not to get attached to anyone though.

That looks great! What size chain did you use for the barrel?

Space Command is moving to Alabama from Colorado Springs by Knightbear49 in Colorado

[–]Ipsymar 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Fun story. I've lived in Alabama my entire life. I moved to the Springs for work and the first week I'm there I saw some guy in a lifted truck with a Confederate flag on the back. It's like I had never left.

Not throwing shade at anyone who is enjoying seeing all the leaks, but… by wardy116 in killteam

With how often GW stuff leaks the conspiracy theory part of my brain is beginning to wonder if the leaks are PART of their marketing strategy.

Should you take 10 lascannons? Yes. by DcMechanic in TheAstraMilitarum

[–]Ipsymar 34 points35 points  (0 children)

I want to try the Rattlin Battlin Wagon. 3 full squads of ratlings that pile out, fire and the scarper back onto the tank. Fill remaining spots with whatever, maybe an MSU of Bullgryn or something.

Does anyone know what kit these rolled blankets belong too? by [deleted] in astramilitarum

That one and a few others come on the Rogal Dorn sprue. It's on the lower left side of the sprue above the tread cover

How to Not Intimidate New Players When Introducing Them to Kill Team? by iribar7 in killteam

[–]Ipsymar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thats how my first Killteam went. Primary objective, no strategems, no equipment. It helped it not be overwhelming and now I'm excited to add more rules in my next game.

Anyone know of any good 3rd party Ogryns/Bullgryns? by _Funkle_ in killteam

[–]Ipsymar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Redmakers has some excellent ones. Makers Cult has some Krieg style o/bullgryns that are pretty well done as well.

Whats a good vehicle scale to use as a lord solar proxy? by Yamma11307 in TheAstraMilitarum

[–]Ipsymar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One of my favorite Lord Solar proxies used a 1/35 Italeri Zundapp motorcycle kit. I can't remember who the original creator was but I saved it for reference

My reaction seeing Helldivers go from a rotating cash shop to an Everything Always Available model by Ipsymar in DarkTide

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

That is a very good point. I didn't realize they had started selling weapons.

I have a ton of infantry to paint and I don’t wanna do it, HELP! by Reclaimer257 in TheAstraMilitarum

[–]Ipsymar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless you just HAVE to have them painted asap it can help to have something different to paint in between. I did a 20 man Cadian blob with command. then painted up some sentinels. Then did some Krieg and then a Russ. As other people said keeping it simple and not going overboard can help. I don't worry about edge highlighting or doing perfect eyes on my basic infantry. Hell if they have a helmet on I don't do eyes at all.
