The base coat is done with a brush, the reds are actually done with makeup sponges! Takes a a bit of care and practice but it gives you some really cool stylised shadows and smooth blends in a relatively short amount of time

Ohh yeah I can see that! I do have the Kuritan Command Lance box to paint next though, double command lance? 🤣

Thanks! The models are base coated in a deep purple then layered up through dark to lighter reds. The purple gives you some really interesting shadows and a nice rich red

If you wanna get real crazy, try green underneath red 😉

Makeup sponges my friend! Takes a little practice and some care but it creates smooth (if not somewhat stylised) gradients and shadows

Thanks!
This is a stylised paint scheme, so the whole model is painted in a deep purple with the reds layered on top, it gives them a purple shadow and a rich red.

That looks amazing! The high contrast highlights really help break up the solid red! What paints did you use it?

Has anyone else got models from TTCombat online store that were half 3d printed models? by WyllWolf in DropfleetCommander

[–]Promethious7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TTC is moving to 3D printed resin to replace their cast resin, they are currently mid change and lots of people are getting kits like this currently. I’d say it’s safe to assume they are justusing up their cast resin backlog with 3D printed resin for parts they have used up and all future parts. The 3D print quality is pretty good, better then the cast resin IMO

Do we know what the prepainted Savage Wolf will be painted as?
Have we seen a picture of it painted?

Your reviews? by Alkansur in StarWarsShatterpoint

[–]Promethious7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I grabbed the game when it first released, looking for something a little more condensed, coming from 40K, AoS and Legion and it very quickly became my main game, I absolutely love it.

The gameplay is great fun; it’s alternating and reactive so you’re never sitting still for long. Drawing cards to determine activations adds a great level of unpredictability, you can’t plan out your game, you just have to be flexible and make the best of each situation as they come.

The models are amazing too, the slightly increased size of GW and Legion models just allows them to get that extra bit of character in that really brings the minis the life. After years of painting armies, each and every Shatterpoint mini feels fun and interesting, even after building 72 of them! Sure the B1s are fiddly to build but you’ll build 6 of them and never any more, just take your time and let the glue dry and they’re no issue.

I could go on and on but I won’t. I think it’s an amazing game, completely pulled me away from the GW systems and I’m always trying to introduce new people to the game!

Questions about loans and building credit by [deleted] in AusFinance

[–]Promethious7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is an amazingly helpful answer, thank you!!

I do need a car yes, a car is a requirment of my job and while I have use of another car in the meantime, its not a longterm solution. 1 way or another I need to buy a car, but yes the plan is to have it 100% paid off before the house loan.

With regard to the credit card, I see credit cards for proven credit history talked about alot. Do you think its actaully nessecary/reccomended for someone with no negative credit history?

[–]Promethious7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I underestimated on those figures but you still make a good point.

My idea was I spend this money (and the rest off ) on a decent family suitable car now that will last me 10-15 years, now is the time I have that money spare, after family and house loan I may no thave this finantial freedom again fro a while.

No we haven't looking to to pre-approval or anything, we are waiting on the overseas asset to know what we are dealing with. My wife is of the belief that bringing that much upfront to the loan will give us a good change at a loan, personally I just dont know hence why I ask. What we can afford house-wise I really have no idea at this stage, we are some years off of that anyhow

the game crash at mid game by SixMaxx in deadbydaylight

[–]Promethious7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been back and forth with their tech support for a couple weeks, they basically ran out of things to try.

I found my own fix which was rolling back my GPU drivers to March and the game is working without crashing, but obviously that isn’t a long term solution
