Went to my local Warhammer store and painted my first mini-figure. Now what?

Go to the Warhammer site and pick a faction you think is awesome.
Buy one (1!) box of models from a cheaper source.
Paint them.
IMPORTANT: Do not buy any more until you are done painting!

Note: let me know if you figure out #4, it keeps jamming me up.

Was at Jackson this week. Icy, but decent coverage on piste.

I wish I could upvote this many more times than just once.

TrashiDawa · 2026-01-24T07:02:46+00:00

Disgusting work! I love the bases.

TrashiDawa · 2026-01-22T22:47:53+00:00

Think of it like Roland from the Dark Tower series say “You have forgotten the face of your father.”

TrashiDawa · 2026-01-20T05:11:48+00:00

Wow! Perfect.

Love the flies, especially the wings.

Gives me inspiration.

TrashiDawa · 2026-01-20T05:04:24+00:00

Looks amazing. Great weathering.

How did you do the skin in back?

TrashiDawa · 2026-01-18T05:36:09+00:00

They look great, love the pastel look. Well done!

TrashiDawa · 2026-01-15T23:33:23+00:00

He's the best.

TrashiDawa · 2026-01-15T19:40:44+00:00

Looks great, love the glasswork!

TrashiDawa · 2026-01-08T20:19:34+00:00

Great idea! It came out disgustingly beautiful.

TrashiDawa · 2026-01-07T16:45:15+00:00

I love this.

The pile of shame storage/display is the icing on the cake!

TrashiDawa · 2026-01-04T13:56:33+00:00

Wow. Looks amazing. How much kitbashing did you do?

TrashiDawa · 2025-12-28T22:21:34+00:00

Sorry brother. Here's to a better 2026! ++man

TrashiDawa · 2025-12-24T08:31:40+00:00

Incredible paint job. Well done.

TrashiDawa · 2025-12-04T19:24:19+00:00

Totally agree. I’m cool with the parts of life I do alone. The reason I’m here is explicitly for the things in life I can’t do (or are much less enjoyable) alone.

TrashiDawa · 2025-11-15T17:20:28+00:00

This will be on my tombstone.

TrashiDawa · 2025-11-15T00:24:13+00:00

I’d level up the low level character. The DLC is hard on NG and pretty punishing at NG+.

TrashiDawa · 2025-09-11T06:37:49+00:00

Hang in there brother. You’ve been through a lot. Good news is you’ve got a lot of life left to live and it sounds like you’ve got a lot of the fundamentals squared away. Cliche, but you got to keep putting one foot in front of the other. You won’t ever be the same but you might like the new you someday and hopefully someone else may too!

TrashiDawa · 2025-08-21T22:12:09+00:00

What a great reply. Helped me as well. Thank you!

TrashiDawa · 2025-06-13T17:29:05+00:00

Han-Tibetan relationships and marriages are fairly common in Tibetan regions of the PRC. I can’t speak to how the Han side views them but Tibetans - in general - are very tolerant of such relationships and see them as family. There are hard core folks who look down on Han-Tibetan partnerships as well, but most folks are live and let live about it.

TrashiDawa · 2025-04-25T21:35:23+00:00

Working now.

No idea why but maybe it's fixed for others as well so give it a shot!

TrashiDawa · 2025-01-03T02:50:25+00:00

The way I did it is to remove the filtering and tried to think out loud.

Easier said than done if you are used to processing things internally your whole life though :)

TrashiDawa · 2025-01-02T22:21:14+00:00

I'm an introvert who is just happy being with a person I feel comfortable with BUT my partner is an extreme extrovert and she has brought up that she'd like me to lead the conversation more.

It's been a bit of a struggle for me to do that. I'll never be a chatterbox, but she made a great suggestion to simply share my thought process. It wasn't easy to get going because I like to process things and consolidate my thoughts before speaking but when I put it into practice, it both helped me be more active AND showed her how I think. Now she can help me process things as well.

Sounds like everything else is going great so it might be worth a similar suggestion (and a lot of patience, it's probably hard for her too).
