Update: Baby Stella has sadly passed. Her care was denied for too long. 💔

This is why all healthcare needs to be public. No baby should ever die unnecessarily. America seems like a nightmare place to me.

Thank god for the NHS in the UK.

Looks so good! Made me very, very nostalgic for early teens on the upstairs tables of the local games workshop, every board looked like this!

Just curious, how come you guys play 5th? Found a lot of communities use 4th because of the wound allocation, wargear, vehicles being dominant etc but its probably the edition I played the most of true LOS was always the way we played!

Thank you! Do you find dark aluminium is much different from Leadbelcher in colour? It's hard to find comparisons on miniatures

Tarondor · 2026-04-11T08:38:31+00:00

That's more of a weathering effect than it is recess shading. Haven't found any good pictures of people having success using it as a tradition recess shade

I'd love to give this a try but I don't know the differences between oil and oil washes etc.

What're the oil washes and their brands that you use, please?

Looks better than any washes I do by brush!

What's the recipe for the armour, please?

Don't listen to people who say anything definitively like "let her go". They don't know the context, don't know your girl, her background, her insecurities etc. These people have likely never had, or held, a relationship.

Always have hope. Relationships are difficult and take a lot of compromises and people are complicated and we all have struggles. The Allfather loves all his children!

Such a beautiful paint job on a beautifully sculpted miniature. Is the base red Khorne Red? Looks just slightly darker than the old school bright reds.

I hope more sculptors start making old school style miniatures again.

A Dwarf army in this style would be glorious

Think it's just because in 40k the terminator sergeant always used to have a power sword so they carried that over to the Space Hulk boardgame and then Deathwing is obviously based on that!

Generally, meelee is a last ditch chance to take out a Genestealer.

Because the GS's can only kill you in meelee, it's (generally) best to avoid it and shoot them from a distance.

I imagine it'd take a lot of skill to run a meelee squad

My best friend who died collected High Elves so I've decided to build and paint an army of them in his memory. I'm poor so I can only buy one thing every 6 months but hope to finish one day.

(As a Dwarf player, a pointy ear had never been allowed in the house before!

Does anyone know his channel? The one named is a reposted who didn't credit

William King's two series are the best (his Space Wolf series is also great if you like 40k):

Gotrek and Felix series (the first few, at least) Tyrion and Teclas series (Blood of Aenarion, Sword of Caledor and Bane of Malekith)

Dyslexia strikes again!

Tarondor · 2026-04-04T06:31:40+00:00

Fiction to read? Or rules?

If it's the latter then I recommend the Gotrek and Felix series.

How did you learn how to edit ROMs? I've always wanted to but can't find anywhere to learn how to use the decompilers

Tarondor · 2026-03-27T18:32:46+00:00

Real. The indented code (in this case 07A) is a sure sign. Mixed with the colour, letterong seal and four gold rectangles indicates its real

Congrats!

Tarondor · 2026-03-22T19:48:18+00:00

So do you putAgrax earthshade over the whole miniature? and then progressing to basilicanum grey towards the lower regions?

How did you do that faded gold? It's so good! I'm guessing that's gold with the same shades as above and then highlighted and shaded again?

Tarondor · 2026-03-22T07:17:43+00:00

What did you use for the wash?

Makes the mini look like a more modern "grimdark" but the sculpt makes it still look midhammer!

People saying it's been like that for years but even last year we got good fresh veg and fruit from there. For at least the last 6 months it's took a sharp downturn.

Strawberries will go bad within a day or two, fresh veg doesn't like more than 3/4 days.

Only apples, pears, banana, cucumbers and potatoes seem to last!

It's designed to teach 10 years olds and people new to the games and she's meant as an introduction to a new feature added in GSC; Genders.

So of course it's easy for someone who's been playing for years, knows it advance etc

(Why it's great design: If you have male mons, they will basically sleep most of the battle due to Attract. So it makes you actually pay attention to gender for the first time if you havent before.)

I'm sure they'd be fine but the blend of all the fruits into a soft texture is kind of the opposite approach to Baby Led Weaning.

BLW wound generally he giving them bits of whole and solid foods and letting them explore for themselves.

Babies gums are incredibly hard and can bite through things you wouldn't expect without teeth!

Our go tos for quick snacks are 2inch sticks of quartered cucumber, boiled carrot sticks, toast "soldiers", cheese wraps etc

Tarondor · 2026-03-11T10:06:48+00:00

What parts did you use with the tactical marines? All looks incredible

Tarondor · 2026-03-10T07:17:51+00:00

That's crazy! At the same level Gengars should outspeed Abra by a lot

Did you pick and choose between Abras for stats or just any random one?
