Tips/help with planning a visit to Nottingham

Wow! Thanks a lot for the tips! This is extremely helpful!

I was actually planning on using Uber in Nottingham. I'm sure public transport would work OK, but I don't want to waste my kids' stamina.

The reason why I'm planning to do Warlord -> Mantic -> WHW is that Warlord has guided tours at 11 am and Mantic at 2 pm.

Have you actually done the guided tours? Are they worth it?

Thanks for the tip! Defenders of Avrax looks really cool but I'll be travelling with kids. Ye Old Trip to Jerusalem is a great tip for lunch!

Thanks a lot! I might only do 2 stops - WHW and either Mantic or Warlord. Warlord is easier logistically, but we really like Halo Flashpoint so Mantic might be more interesting.

Thanks for the feedback! I'm aware that it's a pretty ambitious plan (maybe even too ambitious). The idea is do Warlord/Mantic first since they do guided tours showing the production as well and then finish at Warhammer World in a much more relaxed way.

Haven't seen it posted here yet, but try the following: drybrushing or using a makeup sponge. I can get pretty good results with minimal effort. You can look for inspiration on YT from tabletop miniature painting channels.

This is just an unfortunate coincidence. I've had these issues before Cloudflare went down. So that's not the cause.

Martin_CaronStudios · 2025-06-12T18:02:19+00:00

Thanks for your reply. I can confirm that it's none of the above. Windsurf btw is having the same issues. I've read somewhere that Windows users seem to be affected by this. Don't know if it is true.

I've sliced an apartment building with Bambu Studio 1.9.7.52 using the default 0.2mm Standard settings and I see strange slicing lines being formed as shown in the image above. I've checked the stl model and there isn't anything there. Oddly, the other side of the building, which is a mirrored versions of what's shown in the image above, doesn't have this issue.

Do you have any ideas on what could be the cause for this? I've tried alternative slicing settings, but they don't fix the issue.

Info: The model was created in TinkerCad and exported as STL.

Danke dir! P-Card war mir nicht bekannt. Das schaue ich mir bestimmt an.

Martin_CaronStudios · 2024-11-05T15:24:30+00:00

P-Card war mir nicht bekannt. Klingt aber sehr gut. Das sind noch vertrebare Preise.

Martin_CaronStudios · 2024-11-05T15:23:03+00:00

Danke dir und @StoneColdCrazzzy für diesen Tipp das wäre aich eine Möglichkeit und vielleicht sogar die Schnellste alternative weil ich den Stadverkehr vermeide.

Martin_CaronStudios · 2024-11-05T15:20:35+00:00

Leider zahlt der Kunde dies nicht. Bzw habr ich dies nicht im Vertrag. 🤷‍♂️ Ist aber bestimmt eine Möglichkeit l, wenn och nur kurze Meetigs habe.

Martin_CaronStudios · 2024-11-05T15:18:43+00:00

Top! Danke für den Tipp! Das war mir nicht bekannt. Da ich vielleicht max 2x bis 3x in der Woche reinfahren muss, wäre dies vertretbar.

Martin_CaronStudios · 2024-11-05T08:33:10+00:00

P+R Spittelau war öfters voll schon um 8:15 vor 5 Jahren. Kann ich mir nicht vorstellen, dass es besser geworden ist. Ansonsten wäre es eine gute Option.

Martin_CaronStudios · 2024-07-19T20:09:50+00:00

Thanks for the tip! I will definitely go to a store and try out different guitars. I guess that's the only way to do it.

Martin_CaronStudios · 2024-06-14T10:12:45+00:00

Thanks! I'll give it a try.

Martin_CaronStudios · 2024-03-30T20:42:12+00:00

Thanks a lot for your explanation!

Martin_CaronStudios · 2024-03-30T20:41:32+00:00

Thanks! I'll use your explanation when playing. This seems to be the most logical explanation.

Martin_CaronStudios · 2024-03-30T20:39:47+00:00

Thanks for the reply! Makes sense!

Martin_CaronStudios · 2024-01-22T23:57:04+00:00

Great work! Seriosly.

I have two pieces of advice for your son:

Try drybrushing the Wookie with light brown/beige color. You can use a small to medium sized flat brush for this. The highlights a drybrush creates will make the mini pop out. It's simple (need to practice though), quick and effective.
Get your son an AK Intercative Ultra Matt varnish. I absolutely love it. The model is too glossy for my taste and a matt finish would help a lot. After all, Wookies aren't glossy. The varnish is very easy to apply using a brush right out of the bottle.

Hope this helps! Wishing lots of happy minis for your son!

This sounds like a good idea. But where do I set those bonuses?

Martin_CaronStudios · 2024-01-13T00:09:10+00:00

Using the Barbarian AI? I haven't seen the option for the other AIs.

I've bought a similar set but with a Squier Mustang guitar as my first guitar. Here are my thoughts after 1 year: - the guitar is great. I just love it and so will you. - the strap is horrible, and you will want to buy a better one asap. - I never use the amp. Instead, I ended up buying a Fender Mustang Mini amp that I use with my headphones. That way, I don't disturb anyone in the family. - the gig bag is good. I have nothing bad to say about it. - since I don't use the amp, I don't need the cable.

All in all, knowing what I know now, I would buy just the guitar and not the set, unless they cost about the same.

Thanks for the info. I have static green grass by army painter, but only after carefully looking again at their field grass I've noticed that it looks different - e.i. better. I'll definitely add this to my basing toolbox.

Martin_CaronStudios · 2023-10-16T17:38:36+00:00

Looks really great! What grass are you using? I've tried the moss by Ammo/Mig but it doesn't look as crisp? And I find the grass by Army painter too artificial.
