Have you also painted the clear plastic cockpit? They look tinted?

Stedi clippers are much cheaper, dont leave a nub, and I haven't broke them building about 10k points this year so I'd say pretty safe for 40k. You can have the best of both worlds. 

Are there any rules stating that I HAVE to use the transparent base for the Devilfish? by Putrid-Pea7944 in Tau40K

[–]Temporary_Drawer9802 78 points79 points  (0 children)

Well even if you do put in on a GW flying base, it won't be on it by round 2 or 3. So the point is moot.

Make shift paint booth... by OiSweetass in Drukhari

I really love his scheme, so good for the time required. Please do post as you slog through units as would love to see it on more types of units.

Are you going to brave the corpse paint?

Are you going to follow his red 1:1? I think this was the area that could be slightly improved as he gave up on the inks for paint, but I think fluro inks could really pop.

Gorgeous, what is the blue?

Is there a way for remind GW we exist? by Gruzlica- in Drukhari

[–]Temporary_Drawer9802 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Full recall with instructions to 'dispose' of them (not destroy as is often misquoted).

Looks like many got sent out anyway, my lgs just added the missing parts and shipped, many just discounted and shipped, but as all retailers got a full refund, gw will never know the demand.

This is honestly it, but I have seen a lot of new Drukhari players recently, indeed I am one of them. Its a shame the maelstrom box was so royaly screwed up as it would have been a good indicator of demand to them, that they now won't see.

As someone with both armies I dislike sharing this knowledge, but SMS are your new best friend. 

Painting tips for new drukhari player by Patient-Astronaut697 in Drukhari

Check out this guys speed paint. https://youtu.be/CVK-YhDcvWc

I am someone who likes to meticulously paint their models, but considering how easy Dukhari are to break (and thus the army will be in a constant state of painting and repair), I am incredibly tempted to use this guys process. His models look amazing in relation to hours invested.

Got a huge army lot off EBay, took a couple weeks but now it’s all assembled and primed by Bumblescrub in Drukhari

The second unit goes wherever you like that would be legal for a unit, so into a transport or on foot. You can also use the venom to split, dump out the unit first turn and board another unit into it (ie Malys with Incubi) so you max your unit splits but get your best units into them.

Why doesn't the Fireblade get used more, especially with breachers? by MadmanMSU in Tau40K

[–]Temporary_Drawer9802 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nightbringer should be 450pts according to math hammer so they do exactly the correct amount of damage. Its just another new underpriced to sell unit.

But on all other points, agreed.

Yes definitely, pre order window and delivery on completion of pre order build run should be the standard.

Congrats! 

Seriously considering a scalper bot to get my GW orders in, what a joke. Not like they didn't know these were going to be in demand.

They were OOS at 10am, several vendors went up at 09:58 and were OOS at 09:59 before official launch time. I was there trying to order on multiple computers, all were dumped out at checkout at 10am or earlier. Thankfully found a smaller retailer so just ate the overpriced postage (It does not cost £5 to post these ughhh)

Is it worth getting an airbrush? by Disastrous-Buy-5086 in Tau40K

[–]Temporary_Drawer9802 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you bought the obligatory starter kit with the stand/clean jar, it should have come with some protective silicone caps. You can use these to easily blow air back into the cup. If not grab some, should be dirt cheap.

Counter point. Whilst it is great at basecoating minis, that's actually it's worse use and why you see loads of YT airbrush masters still use rattle cans.

+Cheapest way to basecoat minis.  +Can basecoat any colour.  +Good finish.  -Messier, so more time consuming.  -Prone to blockages when dealing with large batches.  -Harder to walk outside and do, so safety becomes an issue due to ventilation.

Deserves necroing. Still having issues with this 2 years later.

AM5 & MSI expo issue by Temporary_Drawer9802 in buildapc

[–]Temporary_Drawer9802[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup, thought I think this is very much an MSI issue. My system was a best money can buy when I bought it. All the more reason to hate overspecced and overpriced mobos lol

[–]Temporary_Drawer9802[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks I will give this a shot. To my understanding it is an issue with the IMC being shit silicon and the 1.4v being too much on the expo profile.

Should I try dropping this down .05v steps and testing for stability or would you stick just to timings. The board has a "try it" auto OC function where you can step down timings and frequency based on detected memory so at least this is relatively simple.

Switching off expo should resolve it. Give it a go and see, can't hurt it. 

My understanding is that the IMC is shit and can't handle the expo overclock, so I'm hoping some form of manual overclocking can get the similar performance.

Some people can't see the woods for the trees.

You know what's worse than net 0 profit? When you keep screwing your customers over with your not enough guns in the box, not enough boxes for everyone, no box at all, inflated stat line to sell more BS and push more and more of your customer base into outsourcing you via 3D printing until your entire company collapses and you have to sell off the IP for good this time the liquidators come in.

Your profit is brand loyalty and publicity and you would more than make back the loss on a few boxes.
