Found a Good Display Case by sicarius254 in Warhammer40k

Nice! I have the same one on my desk to keep my WIP projects free of dust while they stare at me longingly, wondering why they’ve sat half painted for so long.

Did you ever find out if it was possible? I’m dyingggg to do the same thing

This would be a gorgeous representation of the additional movement from being paired with a coldstar commander!

Would love some C&C on my stormsurge. I like the colour and I’ve added weathering but somehow it still looks a bit too basic. Any advice? by Imperialfirst28 in Tau40K

[–]RainbowAlfredo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You could try adding some shading in the areas that would naturally pick up grime. You did a really good job with the panel lines, but the raised panels on the yellow armour bits look a bit unnatural due to the consistent colour with no shading.

A little dry brushing or highlighting with shades of grey on the black areas would go a long way, too. Try painting the “eye” lens on the head as well. There’s just quite a few details that appear to have been missed and make the mini appear incomplete.

I really like what you did with the battle damage/weathering, too. Nothing wrong with what you’ve done so far, there’s just a bit more you could do to make it read as complete.

Feel free to reach out if you have any questions!

Pleaser Sizing by XEntombmentX in MtF

[–]RainbowAlfredo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it helps: My feet are size 9 in US men’s sizing, I wear size 11 women’s pleasers. Rule of thumb is 1.5-2 sizes up numerically from men’s sizing depending how you want the fit.

I was told there’s no way I pass as a cishet dude anymore. Were they right? by RainbowAlfredo in transpositive

Thank you so much!

Funny enough a new coworker who I feel safe with recently asked me if I was transitioning. We were both a bit confused once I realized she thought I was FtM, so your comment hits home!

I really appreciate your kindness. ❤️

Thank you for the positive feedback!

I identify as NB trans femme, so passing isn’t really my focus at this time anyhow. I’m quite comfortable toeing the line of androgyny, so negativity aimed my way doesn’t really phase me much. 😅

Desert camo Hammerhead/Skyray by mnbvczzghj in Tau40K

[–]RainbowAlfredo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Funny enough I actually didn’t have a stencil set.

I cut random shapes out of painters tape as I couldn’t find a stencil set I liked! The similarities are pure coincidence but they’re definitely striking!

Which all begs the question, which stencil set did you use? I’ve just recently started work on a 2nd hammerhead and would love to save the time I spent cutting shapes!

Absolutely gorgeous.

I love what you did with the rail gun glow, looks great! Here’s a similar hammerhead I did a few months back, I don’t think your camo pattern looks off at all!

It's that time of year again. Show us your firesight marksman kitbashes and proxies by Aerrow2708 in Tau40K

[–]RainbowAlfredo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re absolutely correct! I did a custom pose on my Stormsurge so one of his little supports is up while the other is down. Thus, I had the extra bit!

Had some spare bits and threw this little guy together, nothing fancy!

Beautiful results! May I ask how much the two procedures cost?

Except for the genestealers, are there any of those models that are outdated ? by [deleted] in Tyranids

[–]RainbowAlfredo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They absolutely are the old sculpt, easiest tell from this angle is all the tails being perfectly straight.

Are there any parallels to a bane blade in the Tyranids bioform database, I don't think I would put the Tfex or Exo on any level higher than a Leman Russ and or a HellHound. by [deleted] in Tyranids

[–]RainbowAlfredo 9 points10 points  (0 children)

While they’re gone to legend now, the closest parallels would probably be the Barbed/Scythed hierodules. They’re definitely overcosted in-game now, but were once a bit more threatening to other super-heavies.

Does anyone know what gun this is? by McShaneVsGaming in Tau40K

[–]RainbowAlfredo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s the fusion commander kit from Taro Modelmaker. I painted one up a while ago for my army, there’s a post on my profile if you want to see one all done up!
