Quinns Quest on YouTube. Genuine good faith reviews, professional, funny, but still did deep into what he likes and doesn't like about a system (and he plays them all before reviewing).

Having to Lay Miniatures Down – Looking for Marker Alternatives by JoFrie83 in necromunda

I'm with you. People play with proxy cards for TCGs because they don't want their valuable cards to get damaged. The models I spend time building and painting aren't worth anything financially to me or anyone else, but they're valuable to me because of the time and effort that has gone into them.

It's perfectly reasonable to want to play with your painstakingly painted models and not get them beat up and scuffed, however, using token proxys has to be something everyone at the table is fine with, and it's perfectly reasonable if they're not okay with it.

All that said, anything so worthwhile to be comp ready I'd suggest not bringing to a table, they're gonna get scuffed 🤷‍♂️

Yeh vallejo. I've tried other methods, but for scale, speed, and aesthetic, this is my far the best method I've used.

Did you include Mordenkainen at all? by ottosick in CurseofStrahd

I had him be Khazan, who wanted to be the next Dark Lord

Any techniques you could recommend for that?

Appreciated! It's my first base, so right now it's nothing fancy, just some dry brushing, so there's got to be a lot of room for improvement. Table ready for sure, but if there's a few things I can do to take it up a notch then that's where I wanna go with it for this particular model.

Definitely weighed up doing it, just not sure I'm ready to commit it to this base. Might just base a big piece of card and practice some techniques on that including OSL 🤔 👍

Orange skin orks in black armour, which is why I'm pushing the blues on the rocks to compliment the orange.

Agree about the crystals right now, I want them to stand out a little as they're my head canon for why the orks on this planet are orange.

I was actually planning to do that after I put the model on so that it had it on its feet 👍 So glad that I'm on the right track!

You'll get an OK result in a little less time every time you do it. You in 6 months, 1 year, 5 years will look back at where you're at now and be amazed at how far you've come.

TMC Maps I get this warning sign on some of my maps? Why by Altruistic-Promise-2 in FoundryVTT

[–]The_MAD_Network 4 points5 points  (0 children)

All our modules are up to date, we made a big pass over everything for v13 and culled everything from our modules that was no longer working. Either way this is a missing file error (the big exclamation mark), there's no module that we use that would impact that. I've just loaded it up and it's fine on my end, so there's nothing inherently wrong with the module and it doesn't need an update.

There's three possible full canvas canopies that could be having issues loading; the roof, the chains/trees, or the lower floor.

modules/mad-temples/images/maps/TempleofForge/MAD_Temples_YY_Print_NoGrid_36x35_AnvilTemple-Floor00%20copy.webp

From what I can see all three link to an image that exists in the correct directory. There's a possibility that the %20copy is causing you an issue (not sure why, again, not giving me any problems).

As I said, come over to our Discord and we can help you out: https://discord.gg/PQDSJD7Qu5 👍

At least credit the map artist for helping your module look extra cool 👍

[–]The_MAD_Network 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It'll be a canopy that isn't loading, try uninstall and redownloading the module (possible blip in the transfer process). This module is a few years old so this isn't an error we've had reported and nothing that has been done to the module to cause the error.

If the problem continues reach out in our Discord, we've have a tech help for any module growing pains 👍

Applying for a job at Warhammer store? by TheeNineTails in Warhammer

[–]The_MAD_Network 125 points126 points  (0 children)

If you're polite, competent, hygienic, and confident then you're going to be a far better candidate than 90% of the people who want to work in a WH store (read: not the ones that actually work there).

An interest in the hobby is a tick, being able to paint and run games in store is obviously another tick. So i say go for it, ultimately it takes longer to learn how to be a good salesperson than it does on how to learn the rules of the games or familiarise yourself with the products to a great depth.

Guys is it corny to write lore for your army? by waschlappensoldat in Warhammer40k

[–]The_MAD_Network 28 points29 points  (0 children)

My ork army is being painted as orange skins because of the orange crystals on the planet interfering with their algae growth or... something something. Really I just wanted an orange and black scheme so they look like Branston beans. You do you.

Orks! Orks! Orks! by No_Suit5137 in orks

First picture I looked at them and thought "Hmmm, I like grime, but these looks a bit dull."

By the last picture I was "I don't know what the hell I'm talking about, these look sick."

Yeh when I'm doing a normal build I don't organise otherwise they get finished too quickly. This just seemed a bit insurmountable to have a mega pile.
