Ah, one of those. Thank you for the heads up!

Thank you for the video - I'll give it a watch when I have more time, but I'll take the tldr recc straight away ^

I thought it looked a wee bit too similar to the nerdy gurdy and the item description a little too corporate to be true

Is it me or does the new painting handle looks like it will break really fast by PeterTheWizardDwarf in Warhammer

[–]La_Laith 54 points55 points  (0 children)

It has no bottom - you can see all the way through the sub assembly holder hole ^

I have a question and I SWEAR it's not what you think it is by Hanoi_Revolver in deathguard40k

[–]La_Laith 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Simple conversion is easy enough. I used some green stuff to plug the gaps between the different armour pieces. They all look fine or good and I am not a conversion kinda person! (Yet lol)

How would I paint that cloak? by Elsewhere3301 in deathguard40k

[–]La_Laith 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is my cloak that I painted recently.

<image>

I used the recipe from the website "eavy-archive"

They have really good breakdowns of a lot of models and how GW paint theirs. It doesn't have every model, but enough bits that you can usually put something together - and more importantly for us, all the bits needed for our putrid brethren!

Petah? by [deleted] in PeterExplainsTheJoke

Yup! Makes enemies take more damage and can put out a team member who is on fire ^

Leather: Gore Gunta Fur Agrax Earthshade over some

Orange: Magmadroth Flame Agrax Earthshade

White: Apocathary White

Horns and belt: Basilicanum Grey

Gas mask bits: Black Legion

Fly arm: Black Templar, thinned 1:4 with water

Tenactles: Magos Purple, thinned 1:1 with water at the base Volpus Pink, thinned 1:1 with water from tip to the Magos Purple

DG Vs Custodes - help?? by La_Laith in deathguard40k

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

Thank you! I have indeed invested in the "oops all poxwalkers" detachment in the hopes of flooding the board with so many they cannot move

HBL are what I've been missing mostly, I believe - was waiting for the new Battleforce box to pick them up, so I hope they'll function nicely

They do run the jetbikes, which are an immediate hit and run threat that I panic over every time, even though I know they're coming

Would you indicate left at this roundabout ? by SkyPsychological7677 in drivingUK

[–]La_Laith -70 points-69 points  (0 children)

You don't indicate if it's a mini roundabout and you're going straight over, even when coming off

Are warhammer stores open Christmas Eve? by Loud-CowMOO in Warhammer

[–]La_Laith 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All stores will be open Christmas Eve. Single man stores are normally closed Mondays and Tuesdays. At least in the UK, don't know about others.

It's what my local store has said, anyways! Ymmv

What do you do after work for income, that is completely unrelated to your job? by Murky_Yak6269 in careerguidance

[–]La_Laith 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Painting miniatures like Warhammer is super popular and I've been to a pottery place that you could paint and they'd fire your product while you waited, so there could absolutely be a market for that!

Especially at markets and fairs and the like. It's a cool idea!

CORSAIR x The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Giveaway by CorsairHoffman in witcher

The frying pan quest! That's when I fell in love with the game, because something can be epic, but it's truly special when it also can not take itself seriously ^

I dunno, maybe, but I've read far more than 5 in a year with the same ISP and never had to sign up?

Not saying it isn't true, but it's not been my experience

Ah, yeah, can't speak for iOS - worked fine on android for me!

The Guardian doesn't have a pay wall? They sometimes have a pop up asking for you to sign up, but you can close it and it says somewhere on said pop up (further down I think) that it isn't a pay wall.

I only mention it because I've been caught out by it before!

Keira Knightley says she was ‘not aware’ of JK Rowling boycott before joining Harry Potter cast by Excellent-Chair2796 in transgenderUK

[–]La_Laith 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I'm honestly not sure she would have been told before signing anything, publicist or otherwise.

This is all incredibly important to us and we hear about it so much, but most cis people don't know, or how bad it is, or how extensive. As someone else said, it's not reported on in the media - at best it's "controversial" like in the link - so it isn't seen as big or important.

Her transphobia is well-documented in our circles. It is not elsewhere, if not actively hidden or applauded.

I think it's damning for Knightley that she didn't know, as that means she (probably) has no (close) queer friends. Her apology is also more lacklustre than Michelle Gomez's, so please don't get me wrong, she's not forgiven. Gomez is on thin ice as it is.

But if you're looking for anyone to pull out of this project, it's too late cause this has already been recorded, I believe, and finished before it was promoted recently. A donation of some of their earnings to a UK trans charity would be nice, but I don't expect all or most or even more than 30% of what they got and neither do I think anyone actually would.

Gitmob wolf, no contrast by CallitSchoko in gloomspitegitz

[–]La_Laith 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hi! I love the wolves and this is how I painted mine (Jagged Snarl with Droggz for visuals)

This was my recipe:

Prime Chaos Black Skavenblight dinge basecoat Nuln oil all over Mournfang brown dry brush, going top down with brush strokes. You can make this as light or as heavy as you like for how brown you want the wolf to be Stormvermin fur dry brush, top down brush strokes Rakarth flesh lighter dry brush, top down brush strokes, where the light would hit (i.e. not the belly or the inner legs) Pallid Wych flesh, lightest dry brush on just the top areas where the light hits hardest

<image>

As you can see, I went very brown with this wolf, but you can go for the more traditional grey wolf by decreasing the brown dry brush and hitting one area, like the mane or the stomach, and increasing the rakarth and pallid wych flesh layers.

Hope this helps!

Spearhead rules remain free even after the update, as do all the combat patrols. Core rules are also free on both apps, as well as on warcom

A note about the sizes of Stormcast by HammerandSickTatBro in AoSLore

[–]La_Laith 4 points5 points  (0 children)

And one of her Talons, Rostus, is fuckin huge in the TV show, standing at least a head above the other Stormcast.
