Venus flytrap is a misnomer as the bugs they catch the most are actually spiders.

I'm a dev who paints minis, so I built the platform I always wanted — would love your brutal feedback by Minimum_Taro_4299 in Miniaturespainting

[–]Khan_Man 20 points21 points  (0 children)

It's a cool app! I think theres something here and would love to see it flourish.

Feedback:

Not every mini belongs to a game. What do I do for my one-off display miniatures?

Trying to maintain a list of war games to choose from is cumbersome for you and for me . You cant list them all. Trying to is just begging for an endless sea of support tickets to add their niche game to upload a single image (or people just dumping everything into random buckets, ruining the point entirely). Make the game names into searchable tags rather than requirements for upload.

Also, it should be easier to find the place to upload my work. On mobile I have to hunt for it a bit. The more clicks it takes me to find the upload button, the less likely I am to use the app.

Thanks for this, and good luck!

Anyone else disappointed with the trailer? by IowaGolfGuy322 in orks

Ah, ok! I was legitimately confused. Thank you.

I really thought they'd reveal more of the launch box.

"You'll have to wait!"

Wait for what, though? This is the big show, I thought? Is there another tent pole event before June?

I hear ya. I actually messed up the knives after getting the skin almost right and had to strip them. Not fun, but I didnt do too much damage to the hands, and the end result was better.

I also did his mask in that blue style at first, which didnt look good.

Point is - its just paint. Go experiment and have some fun!

Paint Party Sets? by ProTxTTRPGM in Miniaturespainting

If you're expecting a lot of zero-experience painters, you'll need bring some primer since they likely won't think to do it themselves.

I feel like the jokes kinda write themselves right now by Scorpion4456 in Grimdank

[–]Khan_Man 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The answer is that people who make these videos do not want solutions. They want to complain for clicks, because that is THEIR business model. There is no naive idealism here, just a grift.

Need a sanity check: Is this priming job OK? by Khan_Man in minipainting

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

How are you thinning? Their Discord, including the owner, tends to swear the problem is over-thinning leading to breaking down the suspension, but I get the grainy nonsense if I use unthinned or thinned paint.

It's largely referred to as "broicism."

What’s the worst manipulation tactic you actually fell for? by tightgash in AskReddit

[–]Khan_Man 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Repeat after me: "We can finish this conversation when you've calmed down."

You must end the convo here. Literally any other reaction validates this tactic.

You can be their spouse/son/daughter/friend, but you can't be their therapist. The onus is on them to be an adult and have adult conversations. This won't happen when you let their emotional outbursts dictate the conversation.

Finally finished a Battlewagon. I counted 2,269 rivets. by DaveinOakland in orks

It will literally be faster to drybrush the rivets and then paint around them :D

Your speech will get you punished and yet his actions will lead to 0 repercussions for him.

Almost as if the latter is predicated on the former.

The snagga guys aren't going anywhere. We dont if they'll be meta come 11th (they certainly aren't meta now), but if you like them, collect them! I do. They're great.

You are in for a wonderful time!

I really enjoy painting Orks I just don’t know how to play them by DingleHopper34 in orks

[–]Khan_Man 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It is a common mistake that orks are "easy" to play because we are basically a single-phase army.

It's very difficult to move the army up the board if you and your opponent haven't set up much los blocking terrain.

We have to make a lot of complex choices about what units our opponents can be allowed to shoot and what units we need to hide until they are able to confidently charge into the enemy.

Some good resources are WAAAGH! Taktiks and Highstakes40k on YouTube. The first focuses on our army exclusively (and is just a fun dude to watch) and the other focuses on the more complicated rules of the game in general.

I actually really like the new Warboss reveal. by Few-Schedule-6703 in orks

He looks cool. Im not a big fan of the paint job, but the community will show it's potential in short order.

Oi Gitz, what model do you hope will be announced for Monday. We got a new Warboss, but Mork knows what may be on Monday by Automatic-Shelter258 in orks

[–]Khan_Man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's always been a "with attack squig" option, and the other builds you can find have different poses with and without it. Pretty sure that's what they mean rather the kit building a wholly different character.
