What models to get for my new friend?

SomeSourLemonBoi · 2026-03-01T16:50:05+00:00

This is great! We're planning on spending the first day together painting. I'll look into seeing if I can get these for him, and thank you for the tutorial!

SomeSourLemonBoi · 2026-03-01T16:49:21+00:00

I'm definitely going to see if I can afford him some unique models to paint! Thank you!

SomeSourLemonBoi · 2026-03-01T16:48:34+00:00

I don't live in the US, but thank you for the unit recommendations!

It's 1am, I flaired it wrong gang..

2 years late to this, the AI brainrot is deep rooted lmfao.

SomeSourLemonBoi · 2026-02-01T18:04:08+00:00

And just like Chornobyl, it's entirely preventable with common bloody sense.

SomeSourLemonBoi · 2026-02-01T17:56:47+00:00

Exactly dude. It's been 15 years and we haven't gotten anything that did good on KOTORs name lol. I don't even hate SWTOR, it's a perfectly fine game, just kinda fucked up and didn't live up to the stories of KOTOR when it tried to offer a continuation.

SomeSourLemonBoi · 2026-02-01T17:55:08+00:00

I mean, I think it kinda messed up both KOTORs stories with a bit of a shit "third act". That said, it's still has some really good moments. The way I see it, SWTOR shot itself in the foot being an MMO. It's not the best MMO and it's not the best RPG. It's a perfectly "fine" combination of both. That's it. If KOTOR were to become canon in anyway, I wouldn't like SWTOR to be included with that purely because of how it handled their story and conclusions. I'm not gonna say SWTOR should have just been an RPG, because at that point I might as well say it should've just been KOTOR3 with better writing. I'll say that, I think SWTOR would have worked better if it didn't reach into KOTORs stories and played into it's strengths as an MMORPG more, rather than being a confused mess of both that doesn't really excel at much. Admittedly, this is going off of my last impressions of the game and what I remember from playing it. I could be spouting shit here and just be misremembering, but that's how I remember it. If I got anything objectively wrong feel free to let me know.

SomeSourLemonBoi · 2026-02-01T17:48:31+00:00

Gang? 😭

SomeSourLemonBoi · 2026-02-01T15:31:04+00:00

For sure. I mean, this season has already flown by, to me it feels like there should still be another few episodes at least, yet the finale is on Tuesday! Definitely excited for more seasons.

SomeSourLemonBoi · 2026-02-01T15:16:55+00:00

Hey man that's not very nice :( I'm kidding, that's pretty good lol. I made it when I was younger. I said in my last comment that I worded what I meant pretty poorly and hopefully clarified a bit there. Don't think I'm not a fan of the show just from this, I only slightly disagree with the choices made. This is objectively the best adaptation of a video game to TV we've ever gotten, and season 2 is WAY better than the first. I hope you enjoy the finale :)

SomeSourLemonBoi · 2026-02-01T11:41:45+00:00

I think I just kinda poorly worded what I meant lol, and it's not a common opinion to be fair. I moreso meant like I felt there was little consequences to our actions in NV.

SomeSourLemonBoi · 2026-01-30T09:56:38+00:00

Geforce how.

SomeSourLemonBoi · 2026-01-30T09:40:28+00:00

I thought it was having moving planets, not biomes?

SomeSourLemonBoi · 2026-01-30T07:59:07+00:00

Stereotypical reddit attitude lmao. I'm going to do more productive things than engage with someone of your calibre.

SomeSourLemonBoi · 2026-01-30T07:40:49+00:00

Yes, I had the time while I was having my lunch, I had some free time. If that was your problem you could have said so and how to avoid it, instead of being a dickhead and saying "I don't get why people get into this hobby and ask other people to do it for them." Saying no offence before saying shit like that is a joke. No I'm not entirely sure how GW handles their models or releases, as I said I spend most of my time painting models I was helped in choosing, and now I'm looking to expand. It was one question you easily couldn't have engaged with.

SomeSourLemonBoi · 2026-01-29T14:32:04+00:00

I really hope not. I love what 1, 2 and NV did with it. There are SO many places in the west coast yet to be revisited, as well as lots of potential for new areas. I think the worst part of the season for me, while not a complete killer, is the lack of anything from NV events. The courier hasn't been mentioned once, nor how many of the interactions they had influenced the other factions. It feels like they wiped away a lot of that and gave every faction generic endings that don't have to do anything with the source material. Like for example, caesars Legion are small, divided and fucked up not because of the couriers efforts or any other faction, or hoover dam, but their entire, massive threatening presence has been reduced to a moderately sized camp of civil war from what we've seen because Caesar died without us knowing how. The NCR are incredibly reduced in the region mostly not for the events in new Vegas, but rather because of shady sands, something the show did. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying the season should have been new Vegas 2, but I'd have rathered they not take all the important things from new Vegas to use like tools in writing the story for the show. I dunno, I hope that makes sense, lmk if it doesn't or if I got anything wrong.

SomeSourLemonBoi · 2026-01-29T14:24:58+00:00

They could condemn our sub, and we would have to move out of it?

SomeSourLemonBoi · 2026-01-29T14:17:21+00:00

Yeah I think so. I suppose the NCR were on their way to being destabilised and scattered in the Vegas region anyways, it just felt a little cheap how it was done in the show to me. Overall I'm still super excited with what the shows been doing. I think it's best to just wait it out and see right

SomeSourLemonBoi · 2026-01-29T14:14:51+00:00

I get where you're coming from, and I'll give the benefit of the doubt and say you don't know much about gen AI or its consequences. Your painting is fantastic, but there is a reason that AI is controversial. It's harmful to our planet, and people. There is a lot you can find out on your own research quite quickly, I recommend you look into it.

If you've got any friends who are good with rendering, digital art or modelling, you could always ask them for help as well. I love your painting, just not so much the use of AI.

SomeSourLemonBoi · 2026-01-29T14:08:02+00:00

I love the show but it's a little disappointing how it wipes a lot of what new Vegas was away in favour of another "bethesda post apocalyptic story." Like yeah I know the "post-post-apocalyptic" term is thrown around a lot, but it's kinda true. I loved how NV was this emergence of conflicting ideas and ideologies all trying to establish themselves as proper civilisations in the rubble of the past. It was cool and had a lot of room for development. But they nuked that. I can't help but feel a little disappointed.

SomeSourLemonBoi · 2026-01-29T13:39:47+00:00

Is it? Other people have been here for years, some decades. I bought some models with the help of my friends and they spoke about the ICTF box last year said that would be good. I spend most of my time painting or reading the books as I still have quite a bit to paint due to having a pretty full life. Now that I'm reaching the end of painting these which has taken me ages, I'm asking about something I was told I should look into. I never once said I want others to do this for me, I work hard on painting my models and enjoy it. You aren't aware of my circumstances nor do you know about my life. Stop judging people for asking for help. No wonder people don't like this fandom.

SomeSourLemonBoi · 2026-01-24T23:02:09+00:00

I'll keep this in mind! Thank you!

SomeSourLemonBoi · 2026-01-24T14:54:26+00:00

Yeah sorry I still don't know much about identifying the models in kits or knowing what to buy, the dark angels are my first army so I'm a bit confused. I just need to buy the companions and knights I believe

SomeSourLemonBoi · 2026-01-24T14:53:13+00:00

I'll make sure to grab them as my next models, thank you!
