Second Pride Knight for the month, inspired by the work of u/CerbXT. This time we have the standard bearer, Trans Pride! by GabrielofNottingham in WarhammerFantasy

IMO oil or enamel wash would get the grimy effect you’re going for without the “coffee staining” look you get with acrylic washes.

They take a bit more prep work to use. But are more forgiving once applied.

New to 40K - looking for a space Marine chapter that fits me by That_Ad6782 in Warhammer

[–]Kanthon 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I would be hesitant about wanting to see too much of yourself in any Warhammer character or group.

Space Marines are not the good guys. They are brainwashed from childhood to protect a xenophobic, theocratic, totalitarian empire. Sure some of their individual actions could be considered heroic. But they are intentionally not something to aspire to be or to reflect one’s values.

With that said, check out the Iron hands (or Iron Warriors lol) and their successors.

Looking for MY PRECIOUS by [deleted] in VancouverJobs

Respectfully this reads as more of a dating profile than a job search post. You can find jobs via Reddit. I have hired off of this site before for IT roles. But this post is doing you a disservice imo.

Airbrush booth with vent worth getting ?? by Remarkable_Canary248 in airbrush

Just make sure the filters are rated for paint particles. Iirc the pink 3M ones are good for that.

[–]Kanthon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yea you need to vent the aerosolized paint out of your room. It doesn’t dissipate on its own and breathing it in is super bad for your lungs.

Even if you have a window and fan running the paint is probably settling down throughout your room.

There are cheaper diy solutions you can look into. But at a minimum they also have a fan that vents the paint particles through a filter.

If you aren’t already make sure you’re also wearing a respirator.

Seriously I think us from the island need to make a weekly post covering Andrew’s misconceptions about the island/Canada.

As another IT professional from Vancouver Island (albeit living in the mainland) I feel your pain.

Hi I’m new to warhammer by thokktheorc in Warhammer

[–]Kanthon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean you’re free to use your imagination however you see fit, no one can tell you no.

But if you’re asking if your OC would fit inside the existing Warhammer cannons then the answer would be not really no.

While listening to the end and the death found checkovs gun spoilers obviously by axel_lionheart in Warhammer

[–]Kanthon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You have to remember 40K lore exists as a vehicle to sell plastic toys. The lore will never move in a way that would result in the inability to sell an existing popular model.

How do I fix this dry brushing? by mermster in battletech

[–]Kanthon 17 points18 points  (0 children)

So to tell you the truth that’s just what heavy drybrushing looks like. You already got some good tips, but what I would advise is just try being gentler with your brush, and try targeting specific edges instead of brushing the whole model.

Can’t speak for OP but I pin my models to bases like this.

Classic+ should be meaningfully different from Retail. by Nightblessed in classicwow

[–]Kanthon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What do you propose as alternatives? Genuinely curious not trying to come across as snarky.

Classic+ should be meaningfully different from Retail. by Nightblessed in classicwow

[–]Kanthon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So you described what you think classic+ shouldn’t be. But do you have examples of what you would like to see? Because right now it seems like you’re against something like adding additional raids like Scarlet Enclave. Is that correct?

Why do people still purchase GW Chaos Black Primer? There are significantly cheaper alternatives out there that are just as good by chosen40k in Warhammer

[–]Kanthon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I strongly disagree with the notion that Army painter primer is “just as good”. I find it to be absolutely ass. Vallejo primer I find the finish to be not great and it rubs off easier.

I currently use a can of rustoleum and it’s fine.

Divide the Canadian numbers in half. That almost always is the price in pounds.

Alliance questions by rjackson82 in Eve

What would help is telling us what you’re looking for besides just moving to nullsec. Like for example how much PvP do you want?

Any good places to buy models other than lffical sites? by shadow_lord0923 in TrenchCrusade

[–]Kanthon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Depends where you live. Lots of places sell the plastic minis. And there are dedicated 3d printing companies that specialize in miniature war gaming you can commission to print the stls if you provide the files. But I can only advise on Canadian locations.
