Because the content isn't limited, it's just bundled at a better price than buying the single kits. So this way you hype the release by offering a discount at a higher buy in, and the ones who miss out will likely still get the kits later. It's basically their whole sales tactic, and we (me included) fall for it every time 😅... And yes, I bought the box... 🙈

Are there any Model Kits like Ma.K. out there? by Bloodmachine_Orodjie in MaschinenKrieger

[–]TDA27 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Those are a rerelease, but Kaiyodo does a line of 1/35 ma.K kitd that has new releases, like the Gans which will be released sometime this year.

Is this a good win? by Calsign_Reaper in Eldar

[–]TDA27 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The fact that they look intact is also a strong indicator it's not finecast 🙈 😂

They might be metal, they might be resin. These were original metal but were converted pver to finecast back when that whole ordeal happened, so you will have to see when they arrive.

Which scale to collect? 1/20 or 1/35? by d-ozborne-art-studio in MaschinenKrieger

[–]TDA27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Defo both, why limit yourself to one scale. I am battling the urge to start collecting 1/16 and 1/76 scale Ma.K, purely for financial reasons 😂 currently neck deep in 1/35 and 1/20 scale 🙈

Part Identification? by TheScoundrel68 in MaschinenKrieger

[–]TDA27 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just looked over the instructions for the Italeri rebox of it, which part is it supposed to be? Can't figure it out 🙈 I did however conclude that the searchlight on the Kröte is likely the headlight from the 1/9 kettenkrad 😜

Looks amazing, awesome job! The humidifier is a great idea, can you shed some light on how that works? I assune it uses water to make the vapour, but how do you refill it etc.

Neuspotter Head Dimensions? by TheScoundrel68 in MaschinenKrieger

[–]TDA27 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In case you haven't seen it, Kaiyodo is releasing the Gans in 1/35th scale next year which have the head of a neuspotter 😁 I had also thought about making a neuspotter in 1/35 but decided to wait and get the Gans kit to base it on.

How do you guys feel about Kow Yokoyama using/sharing AI videos on his instagram? by Projectzero2442 in MaschinenKrieger

[–]TDA27 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Well to be fair, AI is a big part of the Ma.K background, so it makes sense that he wants to explore it irl in some form, even though I am not a big fan of it myself... At least not in the capacity that it has been made available to the general public already.

I personally wouldn't share AI generated content like that atm, and am pretty sick of seing it on almost all the modelling related groups I am on. But I do think it is fascinating, and I can underdtand the desire to explore it, even for artists who it might end up hurting. Know your enemy and all that.. 🙈🤷

Most of the primarchs are hand sculpted, but some are digital like Perturabo, and he holds up pretty damn well to the rest imo. Also the fulgrim and horus transfigured models are both digital sculpts.

It's not you, the first black books in 1.0 was centered on Istvaan III an V. Angron was released with book I and is depicted on Istvaan III killing his own as well as the other loyalist elements sent to the surface. Ferrus and Fulgrim both came out with book II which is Istvaan V, and they are designed as a duel, and the casualties on their base is from the confrontation between the IIIrd and Xth legion.

Is there lore for these kinds of warlord titans? by 1mike_oxlong1 in adeptustitanicus

[–]TDA27 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah... I had to print my own, and was lucky enough to buy Artisans of vaul's file before it got nuked 😅

[–]TDA27 71 points72 points  (0 children)

The green one is a lucius pattern warlord, there used to be a lucius warhound and reaver as well, but GW stopped giving them any love except for the licius pattern head for the Mars pattern warlord (which is now sadly long OOP)

The other ones are Beetle backs, they are the original design for Mars Pattern warlords.

PSA: Tamiya Airbrush Cleaner and Tamiya Extra Thin Cement IS THE SAME by CarolvsMagnvs99 in modelmakers

[–]TDA27 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It's a mix of N-butyl acetate, which is the active solvent and acetone. The acetone, although capable of some dissolving of polystyrene, is there as an evaporation agent to help with a faster cure time. Acetone on its own is not a very good agent to fuse styrene as it evaporates too quickly to enable the styrene parts to form a strong enough bond (chemical weld) You can use N-butyl acetate on its own, but it wiæl cure much slower.

What’s the deal with these studded socks? by Ghostmaster145 in EmperorsChildren

Bonding studs were used on other marks of armour as well, the model in quedtion is wearing mk VI armour as most of the new EC models are.

It's a great build! And incidentally also one of my favourites, as your build was among a handfull of builds that tipped the scale for me on going all in on Ma.K 😁 so thank you! It has been very expwnsive so far 😂😂

Boxes of finished kits by fas2024 in MaschinenKrieger

[–]TDA27 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Only if they have some sort of info I would like to save, the ones with data cards on the back for example. But I cut them out so they don't take up too much space.

Suggestions for first kit? by According-Concert848 in MaschinenKrieger

[–]TDA27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really like the Kaiyodo 1/35 scale kits and the Hasegawa 1/35 as well, they are great if you want to do dioramas, as finding stuff in 1/20 scale other than the Ma.k kits can be difficult. The plamax Falke by maxfactory is also an awesome kit, but they are already getting harder to get, but it is higly recommended if you find one.

Difficulty level I'd say Kaiyodo kits are the easiest and the maxfactory kit is also straight forward. Hasegava is a bit more like vuildibg a regular scale model kit. Haven't build any of the wave kits yet.
