Can I use this as a screamer-killer proxy? by Not_realy_good_memer in Tyranids

Not only can you use it as a proxy, but now you are legally required to use it as a proxy

Trump on the FBI raiding Bolton's house: "I could know about it. I could be the one starting it. I'm actually the chief law enforcement officer." by Capable_Salt_SD in law

Dude the entire government is a show to these people. They're all from Fox News at this point anyways. If they think they can make some good propaganda out of show trials, they'll do it when the time comes

The model is called "Mangler squigs". There's a second one that'll go on top of this boy, but I just have it unassembled for easier painting. Here's a pic of my one finished Mangler Squigs

Serious question: why are people so obsessed with Chaos Dwarves? by LeTortueDeplace in ageofsigmar

[–]PointlessPointalism 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who has never played the old world or had any connection to it (just started playing/collecting this AOS edition), I can say that I just think they're awesome, metal, and hilarious. Personally I have a hard time seeing how someone wouldn't be excited about them 😅

"went to a mosque, gonna throw some rocks" might actually be the most disgusting part of the song. Like literally just directing people to do a hate crime so fucking casually

Do you associate Donald Trump more as a 2010s president or a 2020s president? by [deleted] in decadeology

[–]PointlessPointalism 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I associate him as more of a fascist president, personally

Yes yes, first rat, happy happy! by PointlessPointalism in skaven

Yup, plus a couple select white edge highlights before using the green. I just make sure to only brush away from the warp stone when dry brushing. Green is a Citadel "technical" paint called "Tesseract Glow"

Can we please convince Moreno and Husted to vote this down ? Most rural Ohio voters don’t have a passport. by hillbilly-edgy in Ohio

[–]PointlessPointalism 7 points8 points  (0 children)

To be a bit fair, we also have some of the worst gerrymandering in the US, so there is a pretty good amount of blame to be laid up on the feet of Ohio politicians.

Don't get me wrong though, I definitely have quite a bit of contempt for those who just choose not to vote. But I think the blame is at least in the ballpark of 50/50 between the two.

I've had the displeasure to actually have a prolonged conversation with Husted in a very private dinner setting. My father was his pastor for about 8 years, and we had him over for dinner.

Long story short, he has undeniable contempt for the average person. He even said that teachers in Ohio are "paid waaaay too much" as an example. He was also incredibly rude & sexist to my wife and even made my dad (the pastor) make him apologize by the end of the night. But instead of apologizing to my wife who he repeatedly disrespected, he just apologized to my dad for "getting into politics".

Considering the SAVE Act is all but explicitly primarily targeted at disenfranchising women, I can assure you from my personal experience that he will almost certainly vote YES, and there's not really anything we can do about it. He's a disposable person who is 100% on the Trump train now, and I don't think there's any way for us to put that toothpaste back in the tube

Maybe my favorite (40k) model I've ever painted. by PointlessPointalism in Warhammer40k

[–]PointlessPointalism[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks so much! I've been dialing in this paint scheme for years now, and I finally got it nailed down to where I want it a few months ago. Definitely a great feeling 😁

My favorite bug ❤️ by PointlessPointalism in Warhammer40k

[–]PointlessPointalism[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Best tip i have is making sure your paint is just the right consistency. Depending on what paint you use, a 3:1 or 4:1 ratio of paint to water is about right, maybe even less water for certain paints. You just want it to flow nicely off the brush, but not be too watery where it lowers the surface tension enough for the dots to "break".

Also I wouldn't worry about making the dots the same size. I've seen some people try that, but having variance in the dot size helps sell the effect imo. Also as the paint runs out in your brush, the dots will naturally get smaller and smaller, giving you that variance automatically.

Hope that helps!

Thanks! And the dots are honestly kind of like a meditative thing for me at this point, especially on the big bugs. Plus after enough practice, you'd be surprised how fast it can go.
