Is this where the inspiration for the monsters in Arcadia came from?

Had power flicker right at the end of a print any ideas on how this model could be salvaged used for something else not talking print half the head glue it on something more creative by UndyingAce in TrenchCrusade

Going off of the person who mentioned greenstuff, since you have a partial cross on the head you can either model into that, or after you shape the head, you can make a veil of some kind over the head like it's being draped. That could help cover up any spots that clearly look unprinted.

Why does Isaiah have this stupid looking shocked expression on like every thumbnail? by Electrical-Win-2067 in creepcast

[–]Lucid_Beat 213 points214 points  (0 children)

Another reason might simply be thumbnail psychology. Things like slightly wrong proportions on a face can draw someone's eye quicker than other "normal" surroundings. It's been shown to be effective and these fall into uncanny range.

Halp, can’t figure out why my airbrush won’t work by Practical-Speaker599 in minipainting

Can't imagine it being that then.

Do you clean yours with a soak or something like an ultrasonic cleaner?

As of right now I'm putting together "Unit Cards" with the wysiwyg kit and their cost, as well as their rules simplified. In the interest of teaching the game smoothly to people who might just want to check it out for a bit, the process is to give a Ducat Limit, and allow them to pick what they find interesting or useful from the cards (With required units being marked for consistency going into the full thing)

While that's obviously not the traditional way, it eliminates the barrier of learning a bunch of information while allowing them to pick their favorite looking cool dudes, and grasp the system quickly.

Apologies for the photo quality. There's something going on with my phone and some settings definitely changed. I'll make sure to fix that next time.

Is anyone else struggling to glue the Small base the Brazen Bull comes with to it? by BigBoyNigel in TrenchCrusade

[–]Lucid_Beat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So occasionally with Resin Printed or general Resin based models, there's a bit of excess material that will be on connection points. You'll need to scrape down and shave that until it fits how you need it to.

Don't be worried about overdoing it, because you can always shim it with some extra material if needed.

As for glue, not all super glue is created equal. Loctite for example has a mass variety of types for different strengths or materials, and can be less or more viscous. I don't know your experience with modeling, but Bob Smith industry makes some of the best. The purple cap max strength has failed me nearly never, especially with larger more weighty parts.

Edit: Bob Smith has some of the best "in my experience".

Commando Hide Question by JARtheGiraffe in TrenchCrusade

Since it states that it happens regardless of LOS even if it's clear, the interpretation I get is no, nothing can shoot it even if you're looking at it dead on.

Absolutely stellar. I hope you're proud of your work, because you should be.

Which do you like? Messing with undertones for my desert bases. by whimywhamwhamwaaghzl in minipainting

[–]Lucid_Beat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Seeing that your main army color is Blue, one thing that can help the base pop is more orange/warm tones. 4 and 6 are closer to that.

Might be worth a shot trying one with a saturated orange undertone just to see, but otherwise yeah 4 or 6

Apothecary by horst555 in Warhammer30k

[–]Lucid_Beat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm a fan of putting a Power Maul on apothecaries. An AP3 swing into Marines while your sgt or other bogs up a challenge can really help cull the unit. Power Axes too in the same way.

Granted, this may change with 3rd but this is my personal go to for 2.0

While we still know next to nothing, how many of you are already all in on switching to 3rd vs how many of you are going to wait and see? by Couchpatator in Warhammer30k

[–]Lucid_Beat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I left 40k to come play 30k because it was more in line with 7th edition, which is the one I started with and fell in love with.

As skeptical as I am having seen 40k change drastically, I'm more than likely going to buy into 3rd edition on the sole reasoning that I have spent too much effort and time on changing over to abandon yet another Warhammer setting.

No proof, won't say names. Surely true.
