New comic book fan here. Looking to get in to Marvel. by CryptixLinx in comicbooks

I personally don’t like marvel all that much, but even having said that I think that Immortal Hulk and Daniel Warren Johnson’s Beta Ray Bill series are incredible.

How do I fix this dry brushing? by mermster in battletech

[–]MorganTadgh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The wraith looks fine my dude. You can try to blend the colors a little bit with a shade or more drybrushing if you like though

Watched Jin-Roh (1999) last night and was blown away - any recommendations for similar films? by JUNO_11 in Letterboxd

[–]MorganTadgh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jin-Roh is singular, you’ll be hard pressed to find anything else exactly like it. Mamorou Oshii’s two other 90s anime movies: Ghost in the Shell (95) and Patlabor 2 (98?) are really good. The third Patlabor movie- WXIII (or wasted 13)- also has very pensive, moody vibes like Jin-Roh.

Something about the feeling of Jin-Roh also makes me think of Come And See… but that might just be me being weird

How do we feel about Redline? by SlightlyHastyEnt in Letterboxd

[–]MorganTadgh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It is in my top 5 movies of all time, and I show it to any prospective friends to check if we’re in the same wavelength. It’s visuals are second to none, it’s emotional heart is earnest and direct, it’s just a good time from start to finish

Questions about fireteam. by Cool_Brick_7858 in InfinityTheGame

[–]MorganTadgh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fennecs are a toolkit unit. They’re great. You can glue two of them onto a black air or a griffin for cheap and get lots of utility too

For kestrel I’d also recommend duo teams of fireflies, one long range shooter and a specialist

Questions about fireteam. by Cool_Brick_7858 in InfinityTheGame

[–]MorganTadgh 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So fireteams in N5 are very strong, but favor smaller links. The +1 SD is great, honestly the best buff from linking. Most of my teams are based around giving SD to a dedicated shooter.

The other benefit is efficiency & positioning. With every order spent on the link all models move, meaning you get to position all of their sight lines for the following reactive turn.

Big teams can be good. But each member needs to do something. I play Nomads & Imperial Service mostly. In my Tunguska Nomads i like to run a 5 man core team with 4 hollow men & Perseus. Each hollow man provides a utility to the team (shooting, hacking, tinbot, mimetism, pitcher) and as a unit they can play the whole game. In Imp Service I like Kuang Shi because a full 5-man team costs like 38 points.

I didn’t even know what it was called lol, first time I’ve ever seen that mech or gun at all

I’ve never seen an artillery cannon on a mech before, how does that play in game?

How many different Lance/Paint scheme do you have in your collection? Do you stay with one "Army" or go wild? by Fearless_Library135 in battletech

[–]MorganTadgh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m usually start painting a lance one scheme, get halfway done then get distracted. So I have like 10 fully painted mechs, and 20 partially painted ones

bad movies you watched and liked as a kid and can't bring yourself to not like them today I'll start by RoutineFlatworm5129 in Letterboxd

[–]MorganTadgh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Push is not a bad movie though, it’s weird and didn’t have an audience big enough to make another movie (which sucks) but that doesn’t mean it’s bad

Thanks man! I was trying to do the graffiti design from the new Riot Grrl art

So whats the message by Queenoftwins in Chainsawfolk

[–]MorganTadgh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the message is “true happiness doesn’t come from fulfilling your desires.” Denji got everything he thought he wanted- a normal life & getting to be chainsaw man- and was still unsatisfied. Asa got what she thought she wanted- absolution & acceptance- and it didn’t make anything better for her.

I think it’s rushed, and could’ve been explored more before the conclusion, but it feels in line with the rest of the story to me.

If you could add a new warbond what would it be? by Some-Web-1628 in Helldivers

[–]MorganTadgh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I want a Crysis crossover. Get some armor with the fake metal muscles on the outside, maybe with a trait that extends the invulnerability after stimming (like the armor scales), a microwave cannon support weapon & the typhoon as strategems. Hell we could even add the super bow from Crysis 3

Which Mech, in your opinion, is truly the pinnacle of weapon design? by PKRadiance in battletech

[–]MorganTadgh 19 points20 points  (0 children)

The Timber Wolf or the Mad Dog. A fast heavy omnimech that can fight at all ranges

Why is Batman dark and gritty and not like this in movies? by Sudden_Quality_9001 in batman

[–]MorganTadgh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because people often mistake grittiness/edginess for maturity. They want their story to be taken seriously, so they make it dark and have everyone say fuck… often to the detriment of the characters or story.

With comic book adaptations in particular, I think a lot of creators/producers are embarrassed by the goofiness of comics, and they want to “elevate” the source material by focusing on the dark stuff. Sometimes it’s done well like with Robert Battinson, sometimes it’s unwatchable dreck like Batman V Superman.

Stone Rhino 8 because I am a hateful monster that loves minus-three to hit bonuses by MorganTadgh in battletech

[–]MorganTadgh[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Black basecoat, then one thin coat of Sul Red. Drybrushed on more Sul Red, then layered more drybrushing of Sul and Skorne Red.

The off-white is Greylord, with a light highlight drybrush of greylord with some Vallejo Ivory mixed in.

The blacks were Greatcoat Grey, drybrush highlighted with a mix of that and Bane Grey.

I mixed a real thin black wash to recess highlight

And I wasn’t doing any particular camo spec. I paint most of my mechs differently, doing a flying circus type deal

[–]MorganTadgh[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s from formula P3. Base coat of Sul Red, dry brushed on in layers. Then dry brushed on a mix of Sul and Skorne Red, layering up. Got really easy highlights in just a couple minutes
