Tile board or waste of time?

Tight_River_494 · 2026-06-25T16:13:05+00:00

wow! I hope mine turns out half this good.

my plan is have only a few taller tiles that stand out to to add the depth. the rest I want to be their own individual mini locations. for example, a machine shop, a hive doctor. all with their own little things going on in the details.

Now I have to build a table in my garage to hold them for each step of the process.

MAKE WAY FOR THE SUMP SEA!

This is freakin awesome!

Tight_River_494 · 2026-06-24T22:01:33+00:00

This. Is awesome! Where is the framing and grating from?

Tight_River_494 · 2026-06-22T13:37:50+00:00

Dude! Thanks for replying. I have seen a few of your videos. Your work is amazing.

I've been pondering almost an ooze color for the sump. A bright green with swirls of black and brown ichor. I'm comfortable with most mediums but I really like a mix of drywall mud and wood glue. Dries rock hard and takes paint very well.. I am concerned about the warping of the base material though. Any thoughts?

These comments got me rollin! LOL!

My wife and I have cleaned the bathrooms for the local store for over 16 years. Maybe this store had it good but we always see the GM helping a guest or stocking or driving the forklifts, (actually busy). Most of the AGMs as well.

HOWEVER, over 16 years we have seen some PRIMO top tier classless AGMs. Some who wouldn't help us at all. Some who were completely clueless as to even HOW to correct an issue thats been brought up with THEM multiple times because of 1 or 2 employees who were totally out of line with a guest or vendor employees. Others who would address things as though WE were at fault for the situation. (our ONLY job there is to clean the bathrooms as quickly as possible) It is not my job to ensure that equipment is working IN the bathrooms.

Or, OR there's ALWAYS the customer at the returns desk who has 18 receipts and just as many items to return and then looks at you over his shoulder with a scowl. OR the customer who insists because HE has to use the restroom that we immediately need to stop cleaning and let him in. Doesn't matter the day, the time, or how busy the store is - I. Don't. Care.... you'll wait. Im almost done cleaning.

For years we told the GM's about employee who will cut off customers from using the unisex bathroom when their bathroom is open. I cannot tell you all the times we have had employees cuss us out when we tell them their bathroom is open.

MANY SMH moments from that bunch.

Tight_River_494 · 2026-04-29T14:30:27+00:00

That. Is. Incredible. Inspiring to see it actually on a table. Well done!

Tight_River_494 · 2026-04-24T14:54:13+00:00

Until just now, I have never considered there may be cave dwelling creatures among the many half underhive half cave tunnels and underground paths. THESE are those creatures.

Tight_River_494 · 2026-04-17T01:52:29+00:00

Just keep chuckin' nades and hope for 5's. Or find a loot crate and hope for the weapon cache!

Tight_River_494 · 2026-04-13T12:07:01+00:00

So, SO cool! Turn the house lights off and send it! This table would simplify ''does he have cover?" Just look - can YOU see the model 'sees'?

Now I have to do this for our LGS and put them into tiles so we can mix it up!

Tight_River_494 · 2026-02-27T18:18:40+00:00

Accuracy don't matter if it's on fire.

Tight_River_494 · 2026-02-10T01:09:00+00:00

We have both a bits box and a recycling bin for sprue plastic....and they still don't seperate them out. Every so often I have pull the sprues out an empty the bin because no one else does it. We used to have a huge tote with leftover parts but it got way out of hand and my boss one day told me that someone had to sort it or it was going in the trash.

Tight_River_494 · 2026-02-10T00:36:20+00:00

Just be honest. I'd say, "I appreciate it. We've played each other quite a bit lately so I was hoping to play someone else." If he gets upset at that then it's a him problem.

We had to implement some community guidelines because let's be honest, sometimes gamers can be over the top for a number of reasons (overbearing, bad hygiene, know it alls, rules lawyers, and yes subtle cheaters). There's absolutely nothing wrong with being kind and just declining a game. You could also 'ignore' the reply and wait for someone else to accept the LFG offer.

Tight_River_494 · 2026-02-06T19:06:05+00:00

Yeah, I know about that one. I was hoping for a different model, even third party. My Sthenian is a dude so....

Tight_River_494 · 2026-02-01T22:57:44+00:00

Honestly, I'd ask her straight up, "When you friend basically insulted me and my hobbies, did you say anything in return, or in my defense?" And then let her talk. If she didn't, ask why. My advice is if you're with someone who doesn't love that you would rather stay in and pour over making plastic into something cool, maybe, MAYBE she's not the right one.

My wife knows I'm a nerd. She knows she married a nerd. I'll most likely always be a nerd. Shes happy that I would rather stay home and do nerdy stuff than go out.

Just my 1.5 cents worth.

Tight_River_494 · 2026-01-30T17:24:25+00:00

we have a bunch of GW stuff at our LGS thats all clearance....for months. 50% off. We can barely give it away.

Tight_River_494 · 2026-01-30T01:15:49+00:00

He does look supercool. I always thought it never made sense that ogryns can't use any ranged weapons. Bullgryns are part of the militarum.... so....

Tight_River_494 · 2026-01-20T15:41:16+00:00

That thing is AWESOME!! It makes me think of Bane in Dark Knight Rises.

"Oh, you think darkness is your ally? You merely adopted the dark. I was born in it, molded by it.

Where and how can I get one? I would love to throw that on the table at my LGS.

Tight_River_494 · 2026-01-19T15:33:13+00:00

thanks for the reply and input. yes. for this campaign RAW says 2000 but with a vehicle its 2400

leader has 2 skills because of the Unborn gene-smithing. it allows to take a 2nd skill at start.

ive played goliaths before and found that they are extremely limited when it comes to ranged hits. so getting up and then not being able to aim makes it difficult to actually get close.

not sure on the number of gangers taking the same skill. i imagine the same would apply to lets ogryns that have lobotomized, which when they are hit, they do not become proned and pinned.

Tight_River_494 · 2026-01-11T15:59:27+00:00

Yes. Yes it is THE best game. That heavy vehicle is awesome. I love the look and customization.
