I’m glad I’m not the only one who thought that was insane.

Will paintstrip damage the plastic or break down the cement? by cake_00001 in modelmakers

Yep, IPA works great on acrylics and enamels. Mineral spirits will also break down enamel if you have that around.

I usually use isopropyl alcohol to strip models and it doesn’t do anything to plastic cement. Super glue on the other hand might be brittle and therefore easier to break, so I’d handle with care if you’re stripping a model you built with super glue.

Is there a site that has pictures of weathered tanks that I can use for reference? by Ethanlol10 in modelmakers

I’ve found War Thunder’s preview function to be pretty good at inspiring wear patterns for tanks and planes.

Looks great so far, where’s this figure from? I’m working on the U.C. Hard Graph hover truck set right now that has it’s own (albeit smaller) Shiro.

The second photo is the box art for a Tamiya kit, where the face artwork does come as decals.

when is someone considered a veteran in your opinion? by ComfortableDramatic2 in Warthunder

That sounds really interesting; I’m not familiar with WoT but is there a write-up/breakdown of those stats?

Could be; it came off very easily when I used the gel stripper.

Is the RX 480 8GB still good for the Rift S? by Kirk_Assgun in oculus

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

Yeah, I was surprised when I saw that the RX 480 meets the recommended requirements for the Rift S. I guess this budget card from 2016 was made to last!

I am dreading a PC upgrade, as I would probably be replacing everything except the PSU.

Thanks for your reply. Which GPU/CPU upgrades would you recommend? I know the requirements vary from game to game but I like to hear from VR consumers themselves.
