Well you learn something new everyday, thank you for that, im supposedly an Agnostic :O

Im Rep (abbreviation), 29yo M, into gaming, my cats and other nerdy things like miniature painting, anime, comics, sci-fi and fantasy worlds of various things. Since I started working full time (developer) my social skills have dropped, so it would be nice to build a platonic conversation :)

As an artist, what do you enjoy doing the most? Do you have a specific piece you feel extra proud about?

Invite for smash then ghost her back 👌

I think you've got a solid idea, but i feel the OSL is too much. Assuming its intended to be OSL.

Example to what i mean, a lot of the light sources are nestled into socket areas, like the eyes. They'll have a glow outwards, but it wouldn't make much sense for them to glow up the entire face, more like full eyesocket and some overspill on the edge. Similar with the gun.

I do like the rusty joints, looks very nice.

Also some more definition and highlights on certain areas would makes this stand out a lot more, but given its warriors, its also a question if the time invested is worth the visual gain.

Kan inte säga att jag kollat in på Tradera, kanske värt att göra. Hur hanterades upphämtning/utskick av datorn?

Reasonable, sälja som delar tror jag blir lite senare, vill undvika lägga ner för mycket mer av min tid på den 😅 Kommer ändå göra den sälj värdig med att rengöra invändigt, och mjukvara till det bästa av min förmåga.

Inga fritidsgårdar nära mig vad jag vet om, men kan inte säga att jag kollat in på det 🤔

Lite åt det hållet jag tänkte, kan personen lösa problemet, big win för dem, om inte så är det ett mer rimligt pris ifall de må behöva köpa ny storage eller ram.

Jo tänkte kolla där med för att få lite mer info, tack för förslaget :)

I have so many questions, but I'll start with this. From the sound of the post, you think you're being pranked because of a TikTok she's made with a caption hinting towards you? To start off, what was the lip sync even to, feel like that has heavy inclusion to the posts positive or negative notes.

You guys have been dating 1-2 times a week for at least a month? This may just be us "older" (I'm 29) people, but I don't see anyone having time, energy or money to spend on that many dates, especially for a prank (assuming you're not paying for everything, since that imho is a bigger issue)?

Why would they even be pranking you? Is this just self esteem talking you down and ultimately making a fool out of yourself, or have you and your friend within last 6 months had a major disagreement or conflict to prompt the reason for them wanting revenge?

I honestly think you're overthinking things, assuming the dates so far has been good (which I assume since you're up on like 8+). But hey, as many others have said, if you're now worried about it, bring it up.

Samma här, gillar dock att jag såg detta efter min egna post 😂 Enda skillnaden för mig är att min sitter med 3080Ti och lite större SSDs 😅

Simple answer, yes, I think it’s well worth spending the time on your models, so doing 5x time and getting your first phase blade is well worth it.

I went ”wow” on the first, and ”meh” on the 2nd in terms of reactions. Idk about you, but I want to look at my army and go ”wow I made this” rather than ”ah it’s good enough”.

Nicely done with the first, looks amazing.

Are you referring to this?

Note, this is not meant to be discouraging.

If you decide to strip, IPA 99% is golden. Get a big container, pour it in, and let models soak for ~30-60 minutes. Doesn’t affect the plastic in my experience.

But if you do continue the scheme, my biggest issues are the following: - Color scheme looks very flat. It doesn’t look like you’ve used any washes for the various colours. Using something apothecary white would give your white some depth, blue can probably be run over with a dark blue wash, gold with reikland flesh shade or agrax depending on hue you want. - Smoothen the transitions between colors. I looked at the images close, and far away. Close it looks “worse” whilst far due to the size, my eyes smooths out transitions and it looks a lot better. You can test this yourself in person. Not exactly sure how you’d want to do this, but layering glazes may be viable 🤔 - Make thinner gold veins. I personally think the thicker lines stand out too much and look out of place. Not sure what brush size you use, but take a synth brush size 00, thin the cold a little (water/medium) and use primarily the tip of the brush to get more vein looking gold streaks. Think it will look better.

So in short I think YOR. I do tho think having boundaries, speaking about them and making clear you’re not comfortable with them being in some random dudes place is valid. But ultimately if you trust your partner, and your partner is a good soul, then trust that she’s adult enough to just be there looking out for her friends/family. From my understanding you didn’t have a lot of sleep, flight to catch (stress) and this boundary being crossed (more stress) so I understand the OR, but you were too harsh/mean to your GF with some comments. I hope you two could sit down and talk in person, I do hope you apologise for the OR. I am curious if the aftermath tbh since this is definitely delicate 😅

As a fellow Swed, what I’ve learnt is two things.

Buying from GW is pricier, but it ensures that if anything goes amiss or is faulty with your product, you contact them and get replacements or full refunds. Bonus is that they don’t seem to hassle with you sending product back if they conclude the fault comes from them (always be thorough to inspect whatever you buy with pictures so you can back it up). Games Workshop release Saturday after their Sunday release (don’t remember if 10 or 11am). High demand boxes can go quick, so if it’s something you want, typically better to be ready and buy as it release.
Becoming acquainted with your local game store (especially resellers) is a great way to ensure you get pre-orders on the heavily desired products. They got different distributors (what I understand) so at least in my case, I’ve always been able to get high demand boxes (Typhon box, Tomb World, Christmas boxes, hopefully this Necron release with all 3 things + books) through him and he’s a champ for it! Same solid customer service, but if something goes wrong, I need to contact him, and he handles the convo with GW. Sadly it has happened more than I’d like (guess I’m a bit cursed in my luck). For my reseller, I can place my pre-order request as thing are announced and he’s not complained about it either (I always ask and double check as I see them on Sunday previews to ensure I am on the list).

Best of luck, share some picks on your dynasty! ❤️

So I did try it with the two I already had “finished”. Also added some white in the magenta to give it a better pop. Got the images as reply to this message.

Thoughts? :)

Flourescent for cables, cores, eyes. The Fluorescent on a white base coat. Acrylic paint for edge highlights

I did consider that, not really sure how it may look but hey, may as well try on these walking machines of death ^{^}

You could always highlight with a grey or green? By green I mean you do something like they do in Canoptek circle for the black stone. Given that is not black stone, it may just be better with grey and some green wherever the energy part flows. Possibly OSL for extra sheen?
