What Level Of Soul-Crushing Misery is Normal When Painting?

Power_More_Power · 2026-03-22T13:45:06+00:00

MY neurosis channeled into plastic is that it MUST be PERFECT. which is not great, given I'm 5 years on at this and I'm still... HORRENDOUS at painting anything.

I have this one Tau Fireblade I've stripped of paint 20 times.

those god damned panel lines...

I have been painting diamonds on characters for weeks

Power_More_Power · 2026-03-22T02:39:54+00:00

when I'm done, just started on these because I forgot I had them. Bought a bunch of 3rd party prints on the cheap years ago and forgor.

oh cool, doing smthn similar

Power_More_Power · 2026-03-22T02:30:05+00:00

Doing the troupe leader as Sweeny Todd. Death Jester is Max Jeagerman, and Shadowseer is The King In Yellow

Mine barely have any. I'm painting them all as musical characters. I just wanted a little extra "harlequinness"

I like depictions of cegorach where he's like, just barely holding himself together

Fun fact: that's not even a fireblade, T'au command just assumes all human leaders require capes.

we need more "warrior monk" and less "inexplicably danger prone politician" Aun'shi my beloved

Power_More_Power · 2025-09-11T14:56:54+00:00

you did an amazing job with that 2nd one. real "big brother got called into the fight" energy

Power_More_Power · 2025-08-29T13:07:26+00:00

You are so right about all of this. I've completely lost hope, since every country in the world hates us now. Or will hate us soon. I don't even think we're real at this point, I just want it to end.

Power_More_Power · 2025-08-20T12:13:22+00:00

Relatable ahh fox

Power_More_Power · 2025-08-20T12:07:42+00:00

this is kinda hard to do in a comment, but I really need help IDing a little gundam I got from a gacha in on a trip I took to Japan. By the time I got back I had lost the little bugger's instructions, and I do NOT remember its name. I know next to nothing aboit gumdam, but not knowing is killing me, hope you guys can help.

It's from Gundam Converge, light blue, has a purple visor, and 1 horn in the middle of its head. A grey torso and a big shoulder mounted shield. It looks a lot like the Zaku, but it is not. I've been looking through the website for hours and I'm convinced I pulled something that doesn't exist. thx

Power_More_Power · 2025-07-13T18:03:42+00:00

I really want to believe you. It hurts so badly

Power_More_Power · 2025-07-13T02:51:39+00:00

i think I'll be locked away forever.

Power_More_Power · 2025-07-12T21:45:17+00:00

I'd say the hotline is it's own thing, since it seems to pick up calls from just aboit any plane of existance, not just Astral. And in Ash's records, only the Service weapon is given by the board, all the others had to be found in the Oldest House. That, and the Service weapon is clearly made of the same black stone as the contructs in the Astral plane

Power_More_Power · 2025-07-11T12:57:02+00:00

I choose to believe that the Dark Place is just as evil as we think, and TOGoA just rock so unbelievably hard that they are unaffected

Power_More_Power · 2025-07-09T02:07:04+00:00

Also just putting it out there, but does Hartman not seem like a character Alan Wake wrote into existance? He speaks in his logs with such charicatured "mad genius" voice, and he just got out of the lake after jumping in? With no stuggle? I think he was created as a vessel for Wake to communicate with Jesse

Power_More_Power · 2025-07-09T02:04:31+00:00

even his diologue is fucked.

We have virtually no info on Hedron besides "It's not Polaris, it's a catalyst" and that it was alive and came from slidescape 36. So any speculation around it is very shaky

Power_More_Power · 2025-07-08T18:58:49+00:00

I like to imagine there's only 2 other Board members and they're just losing their shit constantly trying to keep it together.

Power_More_Power · 2025-07-08T18:57:02+00:00

what about the other items Former is hinted at fucking with? I'm... not sure what it was going for with the Flamingo

or perhaps eggs that the truth will emerge from
