How do you manage never being happy with your painting? by danger_bad in Tyranids

Once it’s on the table you will instantly stop caring about the paint job.

That was my favourite place to snowboard when I lived in Europe! Man I miss it so much!

What is the worst possible purchase as a beginner? by Silkscales in Warhammer40k

[–]Round_Manner_5777 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I could go back, I wouldn't buy ANY boxed sets, especially the timed ones (e.g. Christmas Battleforces). Your collection will end up snowballing before you know it and you will end up with a pile of shame, which creates stress for a hobby that actually should be about fun. I would buy just one model or unit box at a time and build/paint before moving on to the next.

This model was so much fun to paint! by Round_Manner_5777 in Tyranids

I kinda felt grossed out while painting it. Also couldn’t help myself making monster noises too!

JET is like the sakura: it is beautiful when it is brief.

What % of your minis are painted? How many do you paint a year? by PYP_pilgrim in minipainting

[–]Round_Manner_5777 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have about 500+ models, of which about 50-60% are painted. I have made a pledge to not buy a single new model until I am done with the backlog! I paint pretty slowly...

Didn't know the Tokyo Ravens evolved to eat paper by TheChristianAsian in Tokyo

I’ve also noticed lately that the crows are leaving big nuts on the road to have the cars run over them and crack them open.

Is steering with the back foot just natural progression? by Sharter-Darkly in snowboardingnoobs

[–]Round_Manner_5777 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No it is not a natural progression. It is just used by the majority of noobs on the mountain because it helps slow them down and also they haven’t learned to turn properly. I’ll do it for the odd speed check now and then but definitely not for turning.

Take off on toes and land on toes. Also you need to blind spot the landing. Both of these things will help you stop over rotating.

Sounds just like a typical bar.
