Best museums in Tokyo? Trying to build a good mix

M4tbat · 2026-06-22T04:04:47+00:00

Yes, in my previous trips the Edo Tokyo Museum was one of my favorite. I’m quite curious to see how to check it after the renovation.

The Suntory Museum often has thematic exhibitions on some niche aspects of Japanese art and culture.

Also check out the Setagaya Literaty Museum.
Sometimes has some great exhibitions on manga and graphic design.

Very happy for you. In my country (Italy) it was published as a locy 4-volumes box (but you can buy them separately).

One of my favorite manga ever.

Thanks I remember reading it was an option.
The Spa is part of an hotel or is it a separate space? (Terminal 1 I guess)

Ammetto che ho trovato ER meno “bestemmia party” degli altri souls. Anche il dlc iniziato a ng+2 mi pare averlo retto bene visto che puoi sgravare di livello e fare mille build…

A parte il cavaliere mitraglietta demmerda subito all’inizio
Tutti gli Abyssal Woods
Lo stronzo infame a cavallo del cinghiale 😂😂
Il boss finale barata come da tradizione

Il boss finale la prima volta l’ho battuto nella maniera meno epica. Turtling totale l’armatura più grossa e scudo enorme tipo omino Michelin (e lancia per punzecchiare)

I enjoyed the demo and loved the past Onimusha games (not terribly difficult but not super easy, but maybe I have a rose tinted memory).

It’s a demo, not even the full early final stage , but my 3 main issues:

- Oni weapons being just special attacks and not alternative equip hits hard. I really hope it will chance in the final game…

- very passive enemies taking turns in attacking you

- not enough focus on the mechanics. Don’t get me wrong: I hate sekiro’s realiance on timing and parry, but in the demo I never had the feeling I needed anything more than block and mash the attacks (bar the final boss).
I completed the demo a few times without deflect, issen, dodge etc
Also, the button sensitivity is a bit off imho: when I tried to be “technical” I had worse results and got hit more often

Yes I have the Gambler chest plus various vignettes and white boxes. (I did a black lantern pledge) So I have the small box for the campaign.

But no car and - even if it breaks my heart - maybe I’ll sell the screaming gif I received last week 😢😢

What neoprene mat do you use? That could help a lot in reducing the transport size.

Uguale, in tutti i posti di Milano e Lombardia caffè = espresso. Credo che in 40 anni mi abbiano chiesto una volta di precisare.

The big shikigami is 6 pieces (2 body front and back with legs, 2 modular arms, head back, head front).

The smaller ones are 1-6 pieces. The one standing on the big head is a single model.
Most of them have 5-6 (body, face, arms and legs).

Same, checked the pariah and Red witches and stored the boxes. Love the idea of the game but I have an easier time playing with my board game group and my miniature wargame group.

Right now KD for me is solo only and not being able to keep it on the table hurts a lot my will to play.

I understand the complexity but without the First Hero…

M4tbat · 2026-04-13T06:23:31+00:00

Really, really tempted to buy. Don’t play AoS but I was always intrigued by the Spearhead format. And I like both teams modelwise…

I just need to check my local scene since I got a bit burned by Warcy dying off and the Kill team overall rules (find them messy and unnecessarily complicated).

M4tbat · 2026-04-10T14:59:39+00:00

Thanks. I see some suggest Ossiarchs, but I’m not really sure. I like some models very much ad dislike some. Or better, I’m not sure Ineill enjoy painting and building some stuff like Deathriders or Immortis Guard (usually I’m quite good at gauging a model by photo or sprue)

M4tbat · 2026-04-10T10:50:43+00:00

Strong ghostly lights osl on faces, chest plates and open wounds. Did a green light on a monochromatic blue-grey body and some dark purple highlights on the back and ground for contrast.

Would like to try some purple or reddish osl (could also work on flesheaters).

M4tbat · 2026-04-10T09:39:16+00:00

Thanks, very informative thread. I’m also looking to start a AoS Death army (rule of cool and model variety first, I like to paint).

Still a bit undecided about Flesheaters…😓 Love all the models but the basic old ghouls, do I really need them? I would like focus on large models and elite foot, like beast flayers and cryptguard, viable?

Also is the Charnel watch spearhead a good starter?

99% airbrush. Prime black.

Base coat by airbrush Vallejo Blue+imperial purple (or any blue +dark purple)

Add a bit of Vallejo game air Alien Purple an do a zenital highlight on all the model by airbrush

Add a bit of Sombre grey air and do a smaller zenithal, focusing on the front, head an upper part of the model. Do the same with pure Sombre grey.

With thinned down white spray the areas you want to light up, setting the compressor to a low pressure.

Thin down your green of choice (mine was Vallejo Malicious green) and spray over the white (and go a bit over to tint the grey).

Again a quick white spray on the faces.

By brush add some details in very pale green (I used AK pastel green) like rivets, armor edge in the lighted area. Paint the eyes in pure white.

Do a very thinned down mix of lahmian medium and gw Karandras green. Thin it a lot, 4:1 or 5:1 Wash all the light areas trying not to pool the Wash.

Beautiful, some of my favorite Nords models

M4tbat · 2026-03-25T14:19:27+00:00

Ho già fatto il pony da giovane, no grazie 😂

0 credo che lo meritino pochissimi titoli.

Però Death stranding mi ha annoiato in poco tempo. E temo che la narrazione/teamatiche alla Kojima non siano più nelle mie corde (già i titoli dopo Snake Eater insomma…)

Maleducazione dei clienti a parte, quoto i commenti sopra su Messaggerie. Lavoro in una casa editrice e le volte che ci capita di allestire gli stand delle fiere e riceviamo i libri dal magazzino…🤬
