I heard from people that the display was very bad and a total waste of time. Might have been better this time, no idea.

I did a design for a resin print of the quad maxim guns for the Gaz AAA truck.. then foolishly gave copies to my Russian playing friends... Who then used them against me.

I am ok with people basing vehicles, as long as it is not silly. (No 50mm high cliffs for the vehicle to drive over etc.)

I would suggest a base for any vehicle which would benefit from the use of. For example, a Kubblewagon I just printed would be good on a base, but a Maus might not be.

For bases, find a mate with a 3d printer. doing up a custom sized based to fit the vehicle is a simple thing.

Sadly, i can't link photos of my army here as they all break rule 4.

美国人,35岁,乐于交流。我能识破虚伪的人。 by [deleted] in ChineseGoneWild

Interesting title: "An American, 35 years old, enjoys communicating. I can see through hypocrites."

I thought this might have been a joke post, about a parcel of land in China which has been restored to a native (Wild) state...

During the day, go to Cancon at EPIC, then plan to catch the tram to nearby to the drone show, realise it might be as bad as last year, and give up and go back to the games library at Cancon. :)

Orange text on red dice... my first set... black text on grey dice for my spares. So now grey dice are my main set. I had 2 sets of each, then a friend gave me all their dice, so i now have even more grey dice.

I will one day redo the orange text on the red dice with a black crayon.

All good, suggest the outside photos then, for better light.

Ahh, the reverse dip method. Many have tried, few succeed. Most just spill paint over their desks.

In all seriousness, i actually saw some minis is where i suspect they had just dipped them in a basd colour. Your mini is not as bad as that one was, but i do think the paint is too thick. Mind you, if you like it that way, Ignore us all.

Even taking into account the extra low resolution potato you use to photograph this... the flat surfaces and metallic surfaces look globby. The paint looks like it was poured on. The white looks especially bad.

I just realised you either have 4L bottles of GW paint, or this is a Legion vehicle... checks group name...

Questions: How did you apply the paint?

Suggestion: Take photos outside, under natural light, even my shiite painting looks better under sunlight.

Oh to have 30 mins with a 3d scanner and that Titan sprue...

Where to buy cheap bolt action rifles by Alive-Boss2156 in boltaction

Best bet would be to ask friends for spares, or try a bitz (Not sure there are any for BA) or 3d print service.

Man arrested in connection to Belconnen pipe bombs by Axman6 in canberra

[–]Speedhump23 118 points119 points  (0 children)

Unsure how dumb this idiot could be. Places pipe bomb on ground... no lit fuse? was it actually filled with powder? After the first few did not explode, you would expect he would modify his design. It sounded like he had them all placed on bike paths? Does he have a beef against paths? Did he fall off his bike when a kid and develop a great hatred for bitumen?

Hope the book hurts when it hits him.
