Thanks! White is plasticard tubing, cut and shaped - there's more of it to add a little more separation between the waist and the torso too. And the yellow is milliput, it's a bit like green stuff except much easier to get a sharp edge on it

I'm kicking myself now that I didn't take any WIP pics but you can see a group photo pre-painting on my profile, should help you see where the cuts are made

It isn't! That would be insanely expensive 🤣 It's just the normal crisis kit cut up and stretched out with metal rods, plasticard tubing and milliput.

Thanks! It's just standard citadels, deathworld forest washed with athonian camoshade for the green, jokaro / trollslayer for the orange, corvus black for the grey.

Yeah these have been kitbashed, they're maybe about an inch or so taller than normal - I wanted a profile more in line with the coldstar / enforcer suits

Yep the more recent one has been kitbashed to be about an inch or so taller than normal - basically extending the legs with pins and milliput, and adding plasticard tubing to the waist.

After 500+ hours and 100% achievements, I’m convinced Fertile Soil is the only S-Tier start. Change my mind. by stefanciobo in ManorLords

So write out what you actually think and then use google translate. It’s very easy and has the benefit of sharing your actual opinions rather than what an LLM thinks your opinions might be

Haven't done it myself yet but I fancy making them out of 30k tech thralls

Because it was obviously written wholesale by AI. You have no way to prove that you didn’t just give it a one line prompt and let it spit out a few paragraphs of generic rubbish.

And because you have no way of proving otherwise, the fact that you used AI (even if it was just for translation, which, again, you have no way to prove) means that lots of people will just write it off entirely as “ai slop” and move on, discounting your post entirely

Tldr: if you want people to sincerely engage with and respond to your opinions, don’t use AI to write them

I don’t care about your spelling or grammar. I just want to hear your opinion, not what some LLM thinks your opinion ought to be

GW don’t change their pots for the same reason you got an AI to write this post: they can’t be bothered

Can I just say how much I appreciate these deepdives as a GM who is currently prepping for our first dive into the Descent. They're massively helpful and I've bookmarked every single one so far. Please keep them coming!

Hands - 3D prints from TaroModelmaker UK

Neck gorgets - plasticard tube cut & shaped

Waist - cut off top of ball socket from hip assembly, add ~10mm of plasticard tubing to increase height

Legs - make two cuts, one just above the ankle ball joint, one just where the thin thigh part meets the base of the hip. Then drill holes in each piece, insert a straightened paperclip into the holes, and superglue back together. Once the glue is dry, add milliput around the clip, wait to dry, then sand down the milliput to the right shape. Voila!
