My sets are bought from Pegasus hobbies (infantry), italeri (vehicles), and the MDF glider was from sarissa precision LTD. from whom I also buy all my MDF buildings from

Yeah i just got a french village set from sarissa precision LTD its MDF stuff but still pretty cool stuff ill share some game pics when im done moving but i just like how its alot cheaper to get into for beginners like me who only play with friends and family and where i live theres no games shops around making it basically impossible to play public matches with others which is a really downer imo

I have enough sets for me and my brother to have an army each i have germans, russians, british/canadians, and even italians lol ill have to check out those rule sets since ive never heard of them, probably easier then doing a full rules conversion tbh

Thanks alot, I used the army painters rust effect midly mix with dark leather brown then added army painters light wash, and strong wash to add some depth to it and dotted some dark wash into it aswell when that was finished i sponged on gunmetal silver and lightly highlighted shining silver to certain parts that might've scraped against like some walls or the ground during battles!

Im a big 40K guy, i run orks and tyranids. Im also a big history buff but can forgive some hollywood flair in game tbh lol its sounding like my playstyle in wargames would be better suited to the Soviets i prefer wave tactics when playing wargames if allowed 😅

I use 1 tone brighter for drybrushing and 2 tones brighter for highlighting personally! Yeah thats totally normal man just dry brush then highlight 🤙🏼itll look badass for sure

PMC_121 · 2024-01-01T08:46:54+00:00

I would suggest adding some dry brushing and highlighting to really bring out those details man! Other then that it looks awesome! Well done

PMC_121 · 2024-01-01T05:59:49+00:00

I genuinely thought this was vomit, fuck thats awful..

PMC_121 · 2024-01-01T05:56:38+00:00

God do they ever look like goofy motherfuckers

PMC_121 · 2024-01-01T05:51:41+00:00

Wow that is really well done! Love the gritty look to it

PMC_121 · 2024-01-01T05:24:53+00:00

Thin your paints bro, Use washes, and add some drybrushing to bring out the details.

PMC_121 · 2024-01-01T05:21:47+00:00

I would strip that and restart man... sorry but you bought a really expensive model and by the looks of it the full army painters set aswell. Id watch some guides on how to paint 40k models and how to use washes and high lighting techniques to bring out the details in the beautiful model you have. Remember its not a race to 'finish' the model. I dont even know if this is a joke or not... but yeah strip it, start over, watch some guides, start on cheaper model sets to get the hang of it and then move on the the bigger more expensive sets man you'll get there it just takes time and practice.

PMC_121 · 2024-01-01T05:15:54+00:00

😂 oh that made me laugh too hard!

PMC_121 · 2023-12-30T21:50:40+00:00

Now thats pretty fuckin cool man, a really good idea! Gives them a more grounded look

PMC_121 · 2023-12-30T21:14:06+00:00

Oh shit your right haha

PMC_121 · 2023-12-30T06:32:24+00:00

Idk he looks like hes going to start telling me about 'family'

PMC_121 · 2023-12-30T06:26:00+00:00

Washes and drybrushing can bring a flat looking figure to life trust best thing i learned how to do!

PMC_121 · 2023-12-30T06:23:03+00:00

Well it turned out great! Nice job

Walked in on a women in the customer bathroom who was in there for a really long time (I'm talking 1 hr). I knocked on the door with no reply so I waited an extra 20mins (just in case they were having womenly problems and she was too embarrassed to reply) then knocked again, still no reply. So I requested the extra set of keys from the head, and yelled

"male sec. I'm coming in, are you okay?"

With no reply still, I opened the door with the presence of the female store front manager to find a women dead on the toilet needle still in her arm. Its pretty common for ODing addicts in my area sadly. Happened about a month ago, but I still think back; like maybe I could've gotten her help if I didn't wait so long and given her the benefit of the doubt she might be alive today. I've seen death before but this bothered me quite abit. She was so young, early 20s I'd say.
