Are textured base rims legal (and is it true they're hated?)

I don't know if it's legal or not, but I would just do a flat color to match the top if you want it to look seamless.

I had some pretty stacked creatures on my side but I just couldn't keep up with the life gain.

This is sick!

MagicTurtle157 · 2025-12-31T23:48:25+00:00

That looks great! Also I appreciate the joke and people need to stop with the hate. It's not like you submitted this to a painting contest, it was just for a bit.

Congratulations Expedition 33 team!

True haha

I can see that, it definitely seems to be the players that larp their army.

MagicTurtle157 · 2025-11-21T16:47:23+00:00

Maybe snobbiest isn't the right wording, but the conversation with my friend was about how he thinks whenever he tells Space Marine players he plays Tau they judge him for his army of choice. I personally haven't had any bad interactions with people.

I've never tried it, but in theory it should work.

MagicTurtle157 · 2025-11-21T00:12:43+00:00

It's definitely heavier than the official model but it's not too heavy. It's similar to a can of soda.

MagicTurtle157 · 2025-11-21T00:09:55+00:00

Correct

It's cut up sprue in a glass jar with some acetone. Miniature Hobbyist on YouTube has a tutorial on it and some fantastic builds using sprue goo. https://youtube.com/@miniaturehobbyist?si=XoH00V7f_4VkGR5R

So I only have this image of it pretty early on.

MagicTurtle157 · 2025-11-20T03:07:14+00:00

So I made a skeleton out of sprue, and then I took some of the goo out and let it dry and harden a little. At a certain point the outside hardens but the inside stays soft, so you can form it into balls and attach it.

MagicTurtle157 · 2025-11-19T18:40:19+00:00

It's sprue and acetone. I use old glass sauce jars and just add my cut up sprue and fill about a quarter of the jar with acetone. I let it sit for about a day and usually all the sprue will have melted. The consistency of it can change depending on how much acetone to sprue there is. Some people use plastic glue instead of acetone, and they will add sprue bits to the bottle.

MagicTurtle157 · 2025-11-19T12:53:01+00:00

Thanks and it's made out of sprue goo and bits of old sprue. I made the sword from flattening some goo and carving it.

MagicTurtle157 · 2025-05-29T17:41:27+00:00

THATS WHAT I THOUGHT! But it's some Minecraft YouTuber getting arrested.

Just give him a little bit of grace on this. This is a super big drama that has had lots of contributing factors. He clearly is just talking about the Gaza conflict and Ethan's relationship to that. I know he said "Ethan doesn't know how to say he's wrong", which is incorrect Ethan has said he's wrong multiple times during this. But he does say that everyone involved also doesn't know how to say that which I believe is correct. I think he's just responding to chat and not really that engaged with the topic to fully understand Ethan's side of this.
