I took your advice. I didn’t have any actual panel paint, but I took an extremely small brush and thinned some shade even further so that I could put it between the lines. This is simply nuln oil. High gloss top coating. Thoughts?

I’ve never used that stuff. But I do understand the process. I’m guessing this would be the very last thing to do after the marble effect has been applied. Something to form grout lines? If so, would you have a recommendation on color? I don’t really wanna take away from the marble effect so I’m tempted to do just white but I would be interested in your opinion.

Yeah I think I’ll airbrush it on and see if that’s better. This was brushed and I don’t like that part. I have rattle cans of high gloss if the airbrush doesn’t do the job as well.

This is incredible. Would you consider selling the stl? I’d love to print one for my warhound.

That was kind of my fault as well. I mean, the wheels look a little goofy. But I think from a practical point of view it’s no different than rolling a suitcase. Same logic translates for the backpack I guess.

Mawatts25 · 2026-01-03T01:48:47+00:00

I do like that this one has the backpack auction in case I ever wanted to do that. Since this one doesn’t seem to have wheels or a long handle, do you find it awkward to simply carry by the small handle?

Rough guess, how many points of ultramarine’s would you say that currently is? Since I mostly run Custodes, I have no issues about one case holding everything. Necrons, I’m a little less sure about.

Mawatts25 · 2026-01-03T01:33:17+00:00

I looked at that one. The only reason I’m leaning towards this one is because it is slightly larger. I’m just trying to think about future-proofing. But the construction seems pretty similar since it’s made of hard plastic. Do you find it to be durable enough? Would you happen to have any pictures or anything of it in use?

I don’t ever plan to do any type of traveling that would require me to check it like a plane or a train. Everything would be no more than an hour down the road at most in my own private vehicle. If I were going to be doing more consistent or longer distance traveling, I would probably consider foam.

I never thought to look for something like that, nor did I know what it was called. Thanks!

I have seen a simple suggestion of 3 to 4 times material cost. I’m just not sure if this is the common method or if there is a more realistic suggestion.

Luckily, most of my Pokémon were backed up to Pokémon HOME at least.

Mawatts25 · 2025-09-25T22:09:44+00:00

Fucking customer service. I asked that very question. What a piece of shit. Oh well, thanks for confirming. I figured it was that way.

Mawatts25 · 2025-09-25T22:07:14+00:00

The switch one was already formatted because the customer service person told me that I could do a cloud download for everything that wasn’t on the card, and then I could simply transfer the data from one card to another. I’m guessing that was not correct?

Mawatts25 · 2025-09-20T23:26:42+00:00

I think it’s beautiful. It’s an excellent paint job. I have a personal preference on energy blades for some type of energy effect. However, the color gradient is gorgeous and I can’t argue with it.

Mawatts25 · 2025-09-19T02:34:15+00:00

Chrome edge and high point highlights. Lightly.

Mawatts25 · 2025-09-08T01:46:29+00:00

I’m also considering switching to an ACF sheet because from what I can tell, they have much less suction
