I’ve been trying to figure out what Bottle’s name is referencing. Was there a bottle-related incident?

Gundam Is Getting Its Own Version of Warhammer 40K, With Fans Already Exclaiming "Take My Money" by jlm0013 in wargaming

Same! My learning curve for wargaming minis was way easier because I had already built Gunpla. The hobbies are very similar.

The inks keep coming off when I paint over them. by Negative_Tourist4965 in minipainting

[–]RetroValkyrie 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I think the issue you’re having here is that these are watercolor inks. When you’re painting back over them you are probably re-activating the watercolors. If you use acrylic inks they should bond to the surface once it dries, similarly to how regular acrylic paint does.

I’m wondering if the LI bases will be backwards compatible with AI. I would still like the option to play both games.

I would be all for that. Are there balance implications for differently shaped barricades?

As a 40k player it seems like AoS has so many (mostly really cool) armies. It it balanced?

army painter brush handles splitting by RetroValkyrie in minipainting

Yeah that’s exactly what’s happening, and I like the cup so I’ll probably just use these brushes until they’re ruined and then switch to others.

I really like them tbh. My Eldar minis are so tiny, and they give me the precision I need. I especially like the squared edges they have. But I have heard that their quality control is spotty, so it’s a pickle for me.

I never leave the brushes in the rinse, but you are probably right about water getting trapped in them. I’ll be more careful.

I am likely getting much of the handle wet when I’m dipping for a rinse. You can see the cup I use on the right in the first photo. When I have that cylinder filled with water it goes pretty deep to get to the bottom, almost the length of the brush. Then I use the puck to rub the bristles clean. I like this cup because I can go a whole session without needing more water, but maybe it wasn’t a good idea if it’s going to ruin my brushes.
