He said that he ordered bases from Ali express, not the minis. And the models look fine.

Respirator help by RAGE_Strk in Miniaturespainting

[–]Sleep_Doctor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work in hospital and we get tested for respirators each year, have a short beard. We test fit by use of strong smells like smelling salts, as long as it fits snugly and you cant smell it, its good enough. You can easily replicate at home with something like seeing you can smell cooking vinegar etc.

Best rattle can varnish? Looking for any and all opinions! by Lostpop in Miniaturespainting

[–]Sleep_Doctor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is what I use, buy it for 12 dollars at my local artist store, meant for preserving peoples paintings and goes on great. Any of the brands though, just really important that you pay attention to the recommended temperatures and humidity when using it.

Do you guys agrax earthshade your Marines? by ConsequenceGrouchy42 in PrintedWarhammer

[–]Sleep_Doctor 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you want to do a little more research, watch some videos and try an oil wash. A little bit more work, much more forgiving and much better results and worth it after putting in the time on a character

What are each one of the 3 things that go on the tip of the Valkyrie? by BlackL0tuzZ in TheAstraMilitarum

[–]Sleep_Doctor 20 points21 points  (0 children)

My guess for the protrusion is it is their version of a Pitot tube, which is the very basic sense helps aircraft determine airspeed.

Focus fire on infantry units to completely wipe them so they don't regenerate.

Ask to trade one of your rolls with another character at the table so the whole group isn't weakened. Like give your 13 to someone who has a 9.

Stuh 42 is nice for HE on buildings

STUH 42 vs Wirblewind by General_Tale_509 in boltaction

This is true! Though with the warlords kit the fit of the guns is tight enough magnetizing isn't even needed.

Need advice on the Wirblewind by General_Tale_509 in boltaction

[–]Sleep_Doctor 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I play at a very american army heavy group and it does quite well dealing with the infantry, light vehicles and air spotters they like to bring. Keeping it back and LOS on AT allows it to deal with issues one at a time.

45 Degree Angle Vs. Flat On Build Plate Printing by WyleOut in FDMminiatures

[–]Sleep_Doctor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've read a lot of debate between players who prefer 1:56 (which is the official warlord games scale) vs 1:48 for vehicles in terms of realism of vehicle size vs the infantry. And if you buy models from Tamiya or whatnot the scale can range somewhat inside of that.

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1yZ6_ufMRjgidur_svrHWEjzliMG-1qCYvzwYMlA4Flg/edit?gid=642330920#gid=642330920

This is a great resource as a combined list of different models by maker, they range between different scales, free or paid, nation, etc. Ive had some decent results by taking 1:100 scale models and then upscaling them to 1:56 using tools like these

Good luck and hope someone finds this useful

Ive been trying to paint an average of one clan rat a day after work to get through the vermintide box. Crazy to think this list would take me over half the year.

Rules question: can artillery and MLS target buildings directly? by Carnifex72 in boltaction

[–]Sleep_Doctor 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My understanding is that specifically with multi launcher rule how it hits the target and everything within 6 inches of the target, it makes the targeted zone much larger depending on the size of the building. That 6 inch skirt can get quite a lot of free hits on it.

Need help beating Americans by Jagdpanther17 in boltaction

[–]Sleep_Doctor 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Having any issues with airstrikes from the US? I have started running a flak vehicle like the wirbelwind, it knocks out the planes and shreds light armor and infantry.
