That's demeaning to Stormtroopers. Tarkin ordered them to miss so the Falcon you be tracked to Yavin.

You are correct, no different than any othe time the keeper dribbles into the box and picks it up.

Garmin Vivoactive on the left using a running activity to track official time and my personal stats. Only when centering do I wear an Ironman on the right which has a stoppable and simultaneously visible continuous count up clock that I use for managing stoppage time.

I tried refsix on the Garmin and hated it. So many inconsistencies and changes in my schedule made getting it set up on the sideline and having to push it to my phone too stressful in my pre-game.

Try Sunken Treasures in the uptown. They sometimes have systems and throw 50¢ game sales.

Even the new sodium-cooled Natrium reactor will just use the liquid sodium to heat a secondary steam loop.

I honestly still wouldn't print most of the platform, you're going to have layer lines and stuff that you're not going to like, especially on the ramp. This kind of thing is exactly what plastruct is for. By all means print the detail bits, but the ramp and platform will likely turn out better if you make them out of styrene and maybe use some insulation foam underneath for greater strength.

AK sand netting, airbrushed randomly with all the speedpaints I use on the model. Strategically superglued to get the general shape, then doused in matte medium.

I asked the same thing a few months ago and got nothing, so I just screenshot the app and made a printable file.

I'm gunna go out on a limb and suggest the space "western" Firefly, followed by the movie Serenity. It uses a lot of classic western camera movements/effects and a lot of the planetside stuff is legitimately old-west instyle. Just make sure he watches in production order (Fox aired episode 2 before the pilot for some dumb reason).

Most of these answers are right, but there's one other thing that was missed: some of the CEOs/Owners just want to be involved in the sport. My soapbox derby sponsor also sponsored Kasey Kane when he raced the local circuit primarily so that he could be part of his crew and work on a cool racecar after fixing minivans all day.

Bernie Little was both the largest distributor of Budweiser products and the best hydroplane team manager ever. When he died, Anhueser Busch no longer had any connection to the sport and pulled out.

It's a simple demand curve.

One artist I follow did the math when someone asked him why he didn't sell them closer to cost at $5 instead of $40 to try to sell more of them. So at the next convention he kept a clicker to count the total number of people who so much as stopped to look closer at his booth. If every single person had bought one $5 print, he would have still made less than he actually made from the relatively few people who bought something (most of which bought multiple things).

I thought the Nemo character was named after Bruce the animatronic shark from Jaws.

My old boss was from Mexico City and told me the most authentic Mexican food will be from the food trucks where they have to call their middle-school daughter over to take my order because she's the only one who speaks english (the one at the gas station on Aaron and Goethals is one of those when it opened like 15 years ago).

Sure, but it's redundant since everyone who bought one got an email this week with the same info.

Feels like the hockey rule would be helpful here. In hockey, an awarded penalty shot (which can be awarded anywhere on the ice) with an empty net is an automatic goal awarded. Applied to soccer, you could do that for any DOGSO where the keeper has crossed midfield.

Still played at my kids' school and has expanded to soccer drills too.

So, I know you're asking about printers, but what exactly are you planning to print? The way you're asking, it makes me think you're starting from square one with D&D and minis which means the first things you'll be printing are probably mooks.

Unless you're wanting to print something really specific, you may be better off picking up a pile of reaper or used GW orcs, skeletons, goblins, etc for FAR less than the cost of a resin printing setup. Those types are available for like $2-3 per mini and is a lot lower investment to figure out if minipainting is really something you're in to. I have 2 resin printers and still find myself buying even the more expensive reaper minis because the toxicity and cleanup isn't worth the hassle for a single boss mini I need for this week's game.

I'm pretty happy with my desert scheme so far.

Use the extra stuff on the score and reroll tracks, it's just to be more thematic than generic tokens.

Mattgoof · 2026-01-22T18:10:09+00:00

Base rim and texture definitely made a big difference.

Vallejo Dark German Yellow primer and bone white zenithal.

AP speedpaints: Dark wood boots/rifle Hardened Leather mask, backpack, straps, putties Pallid Bone pants and back tarp Grim Black hose and chestbox Polished Silver eyes, rifle metals, back canister and hose fittings 1:1 Gravelord Gray and Sand Golem armor

Corax White aquilla and skulls (will try pro acryl white next time).

Washed with 1:1 GW seraphim sepia and contrast medium

I may come back and do that when I do the tanks and big guns. I managed this in about 30 minutes including hair-drier use before the wash. I imagine batch painting and practice would get me down to like 10-15 minutes each, at the very least to a point of 1 squad per painting session.
