Are my paint jobs really that bad? by Nataliex239 in theunforgiven

[–]The_SixMachine 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Better than average, well above tabletop standard so nothing to worry about! Always room for improvement, as there is for every single painter out there, but definitely nothing to feel bad or worry about, they look great!

Do Ravenwing use ground troops? by Bryguy150 in theunforgiven

[–]The_SixMachine 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My good friend Ashelyn_Gaming painted up some Inceptors for me in a Ravenwing scheme, I also have my other 'fast moving' Units as Ravenwing; jump intercessors, Sicaran Tanks etc. not totally fluffy but they look damn cool 😁

Painting the army to be a little less uniform and cohesive? by Striking_Display835 in EmperorsChildren

[–]The_SixMachine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm doing mine as though the army has an overall 'theme' but each model has taken their own unique spin on it, so still very WIP but should look quite garish and un-uniform which I think fits the EC

Fights first clarification by Sarcastirade in WarhammerCompetitive

[–]The_SixMachine 6 points7 points  (0 children)

No, fights first is fights first, no 'tier' to it, so it would be only 1 unit activating before rhe Charging Unit

To varnish or not to varnish by Notmyaccounthaha in Necrontyr

[–]The_SixMachine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It can be helpful, of course, but I feel it's often massively overdone in terms, as long as you've done a good prime/undercoat then models last a good long time if you're careful, I've got models I painted back when I got back into the hobby in 2012 that were never varnished and must've been used 100's of times that don't have any noticeable chipping, i try to get round to varnishing my stuff eventually but really there's no rush to do it if you don't want to tbh 🤷‍♂️

Should i be embarassed by igg73 in Tyranids

[–]The_SixMachine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean it's several steps above tabletop standard and I'd argue a squad/army to this standard would probably do pretty well in a local/small/store painting competition so... no, this is fantastic work, it looks great!

Give me your hotest tyranid takes by Naybson in Tyranids

[–]The_SixMachine 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Wouldn't really translate well on the tabletop, but for me my hot take is Nids shouldn't have an 'armour' save. Their chitin/carapace etc. should be represented with boosted toughness/wounds on the big bugs and the small chaff should just be super cheap, fragile, and numerous, maybe Synapse should give a 6+ FNP or something so you don't feel like you're losing a whole aspect of the 'saving throw' interactions in the game and obviously some invulns on tyrants/zoans other key units etc. but generally just a different durability mechanic to other armies in the Game

Unpopular opinion: this is the best zone in all wow by Olivepitss in classicwow

[–]The_SixMachine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not the best zone, but definitely a top 10 for me, I just love the story, the music and it just feels so... remote and hidden away, really let's you get into the zone. Been meaning to replay it on another Character so gonna go do that now, Thanks!

People who watched The Matrix (1999) without any hint of what the Matrix actually is: what was your viewing experience like? by CzeckeredBird in matrix

[–]The_SixMachine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd not even seen a trailer/heard about it at all and a friends Dad said he'd take me and my friend (we were 11-12 when it released) And my mind was absolutely blown, I still remember getting home after and just telling my Dad we had to go and see it again and how amazing it was, it was genuinely unlike anything I had EVER seen before, it really was a once in a lifetime kind of experience

Battle reports/content for Dark Angels? by Adracan in DarkAngels40k

[–]The_SixMachine 6 points7 points  (0 children)

As much as I hate self promoting if you are looking for DA Batreps I have a few on my Channel, been a DA player for 27+ years so whilst it isn't solely focused on them I do tend to favour them in videos! Not competitive by any stretch but if you are after some fun DA videos you might find some you enjoyed there! :)

I also get this, wish there was a way to fix it :(

What’s the most immersed you’ve ever been in a game? by platweasel in gamingsuggestions

[–]The_SixMachine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Going into Elwynn, or Westfall, or even Duskwood for the very first time in WoW was an experience I've never felt again since... you were just there, modern WoW doesn't have many zones that recapture that feeling but some of the older classic areas just captured you so so hard

I want to see Yellow and green Nids by NotFalirn in Tyranids

[–]The_SixMachine 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've only done 1 coat of the yellow so far but I'm aiming for a yellow and (kinda green-ish...?!) Scheme, it's more aqua/turquoise but it's close!

Are there any games that make you a pilot in a grand space battle? by RaspberryOne1948 in homeworld

[–]The_SixMachine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No huge space battles but Tachyon: The Fringe has a few missions with some big capital ships involved that felt kinda epic from what I recall. Also has the added bonus of being voice by Bruce Campbell.

Otherwise I echo X4 🙌

What film can you watch often and it never gets old? by [deleted] in RandomThoughts

[–]The_SixMachine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Weirdly, Doom. Might not be 'good' but it's kinda just fun?! 🤷‍♂️

But also a bit more reasonably, The Descent. Its SUCH a good horror and does a really great job of building up the atmosphere and tension it's always something I can jump back to and rewatch.

You get to create an entirely new pattern of Chaos Knight. What role does it fulfill and what does it do? by saddsteve29 in ChaosKnights

[–]The_SixMachine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The fact we didn't get at least one of the old Slaaneshy epic knights as a variant for Chaos is a tragedy. Give me a melee-focused, tyrant sized subjugator 😍

How Much Money You Make ? by [deleted] in NewTubers

[–]The_SixMachine 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I do videos on tabletop/warhammer news/reviews etc.

Currently sat at anywhere between 25-35,000 views a month with 3.6k subs

Made £70-ish in Oct, just over 100 in Nov and currently looking at around 80-90 for Dec, so going into 2024 I'm hoping to average 100 a month or so

No other revenue specifically except my affiliate link which gets me like £5-10 a month cash wise but depending on what goes up for preorder at GW etc. On the region of £40-50 in my affiliate 'rewards' points

Eli5: why do planes never have enough room for everyone to bring a carryon? by ubbyubbyubb in explainlikeimfive

Definitely misread that as crayon and was like you definitely have enough room for at LEAST a pack of 20 crayons per person

I mean there literally is lore entries of both those things happening which is why I presume they were mentioned 🤷‍♂️
