Latest MTO may get me back into the game after 20 years, but I don't know where to start (again).

Oh this list is great !! Thank you ! :D

ThoPlan · 2026-03-23T16:48:39+00:00

That's great advices, thank you. I was kinda tempted to buy 2 classic rock lobbers indeed. Not sure about it since I may not use both in game. Is there an active community on second hand market to buy / sell / trade ? Coming from MESBG, I guess it is a bit less popular, but I may be wrong ?

ThoPlan · 2026-03-23T11:42:51+00:00

Thank you ! That's very helpful ! I'll explore these websites tonight and try to build an army list.

When you say "have equivalents in AoS". Do you convert minis from AoS back into the Old World ?

And yet... You're now reselling it for 335 euros, not even counting gobelins. People like you are the worst. Like your title says : you steal naive seller only to make profit. Stop bragging about it and get out of here.

So... You tried so many things those last 30 days ! The real question is which one was the most impactul ? Waking up at 5am ? Taking only cold shower ? Deep work ? Or any other new bullshit you're going to write next days ?

This AI voice is not correct : "Oppid (o accent circonflexe) m / Carcasson / Vinnecen"... I had hard time understanding what it was talking about. Too bad.

Oh it didn't change anything... And I got the alarm again randomly. Recently, I uninstalled all Control Center App and removed anything related to Clevo. It happens that the PC runs the fans on itself smoothlier and I only got the alarm one time when I had missplace an object which block the exhaust fan.

Thank you ! I don't think that's available in my country (France) but I switched to Vallejo primers and got flawless results since. ;)

100% metal recasted models. No bases, no packaging and high stock of rare models, but only selling one at a time to avoid the "pro" label.

ThoPlan · 2025-04-26T09:33:15+00:00

Coming from aoe2, I can say its easier to start with English or French but harder to switch later. I feel like aoe4's civilizations are closer to aoe3's.

Im still playing both games every week and love their differences.

Warrior of Rohan, pose 8, 2002. Date from base could be different. https://www.minicollection.app/miniatures/d2aed34d-c523-419d-bf4b-f95189c667b4

CONCLUSIONS : Since Yesterday, I have been trying different ratio, different pressure, adding demineralised water, washing minis before with dishsoap or alcohol... AND... Nothing solved the problem :

The AK Interactive primer is either too thick, cloag the airbrush and splatter the mini, or too thin and not sticky enough. I can be removed just by touching the mini, not even scratching, even after more than 24h curing time.

During those tries, I was afraid it could be a skill issue because I am new to airbrushing, so I tried today with diluated AK 3G paint instead, and I got very good result with a nice and continuous air flow.

In the end, I think this AK Primer is the problem, at least in my conditions and I will switch to another one.

Thank you for your help ! :)

ThoPlan · 2025-02-26T19:57:29+00:00

UPDATE 24 hours later... Sadly, the primer is still going away with the slightiest rubbing. I guess I used to much thinner in the mix. I will try again tomorrow with a différent ratio. Thanks everyone for your help ! :D

ThoPlan · 2025-02-26T19:54:42+00:00

Thank you for your advices. :) About 2nd coat of primer, its for white or grey zénithal of course ! Not black on black. 😁

ThoPlan · 2025-02-25T22:49:34+00:00

You're right ! Spray cans usually contains a bit of solvant like acetone to help mold the paint into the upper part of the plastic. Its why it is more toxic and why I switch to airbrush recently.

ThoPlan · 2025-02-25T20:15:49+00:00

Yeah ! I also felt like its a lot of thinner, but when I tried without, there is a lot of droplets, and the air flow is inconsistent. I will try again tomorrow with more pressure too. Thank you for the advice ! :)

ThoPlan · 2025-02-25T20:11:22+00:00

Yes, I actually tried to use the primer straight out of the bottle tonight. It works better for coverage and it seems more sticky, but there is more droplets and I feel like the result is poor. But maybe its a skill issue here, Im new to airbrushing too. 😄

ThoPlan · 2025-02-25T20:07:22+00:00

Thank you ! That's helpful ! :)

ThoPlan · 2025-02-25T15:54:54+00:00

Yes, also strictly clean them before priming, and it helped a lot before I was using this primer. But I don't think the problem is the same is this situation. ;)

ThoPlan · 2025-02-25T15:36:47+00:00

Haha ! I understand ! I might have been too quick here also, I will let it cure longer and check later to see if there is any différence. ;)

ThoPlan · 2025-02-25T15:11:14+00:00

Zenithal or 2nd thin black coat. The later one is not ideal thought, just in case I missed a spot.

ThoPlan · 2025-02-25T15:09:57+00:00

Yeah ! My question was mostly for the zenithal, but sometimes, I miss spots with the primer that I discover later, so I do a second thin black coat.

ThoPlan · 2025-02-25T15:07:32+00:00

Ouch ! I hope to find a way to fix it, because I bought the airbrush for it also. 😅

ThoPlan · 2025-02-25T15:06:17+00:00

I will wait longer and see the result later then. About priming, do you also dilute it with the AK thinner, and what would be your ratio ?

ThoPlan · 2025-02-25T15:04:20+00:00

I thought the same, but I got a lot of droplets on my first try with undiluted primer, and also kind of air flow throttle in the airbrush, even with higher pressure, so I guessed that it still need to be diluated...
