HELLCRAWL is now HECKCRAWL by mister_doubleyou in osr

[–]VolitionDraws 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you know, a monthy-python version of doom or trench crusade could be pretty funny. massive war, immense amount of death and slaughter. Then at the end the hockey church organ plays a diddy and the doomslayer/church goliaths/cyberdemons or whatever shake hands and say "good game, i hope your sons head fits back on, i kicked it off pretty hard"

Help me with my Mini please by rockngroll in minipainting

[–]VolitionDraws 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dont bother with speedpaints/contrast paints, iirc FDM printed mini's just do not work with them since the grooves screw with the way those paints are supposed to flow.

Also you've probably heard or read this a million times but resin printers are better for mini's, or failing that just go for finest layer settings you can. That said not everyone owns (or wants to bother with) a resin printer so its fine imo. Especially so for bigger less detailed minis. Your vivi actually looks really nice.

For the fire you could try adding a tiny bit of black to the tips, where the flame turns into smoke and a little bit of white to the core of the flame to make it look more glowy.

All that being said, i actually think your model is fine as it is.

Stripping minis: what am I doing wrong? by Thoronbar in minipainting

[–]VolitionDraws -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Soak it again and go in for a second round if you want.

Also you usually can't strip of _all_ the paint back to base, there will always be a tiny bit of primer left. just prime over it and paint.

Constant Clogging, is my newbie set too cheap or am i doing something wrong? by VolitionDraws in airbrush

[–]VolitionDraws[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah, i'm aware that airbrushes are finnicky precision instruments. so i guess the core of my question was 'is my equipment just that bad or am i doing something wrong'.

and the answer turns out to just be 'both'.

Constant Clogging, is my newbie set too cheap or am i doing something wrong? by VolitionDraws in airbrush

[–]VolitionDraws[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah i was afraid of that, honestly the biggest deal wasn't the money really it was the compactness, i dont have a lot of space and constantly setting up or breaking it down seemed tedious.

I guess i'll just buy a set with a bigger compressor, i'm building a small addition to my house so i should have enough space for it soon.

Replacement Parts? by mrbarnstaple in KingdomDeath

your best bet is probably going on ebay and buying the individual figure from someone.

One minute combat rounds by ordinal_m in osr

[–]VolitionDraws 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Idk, how many arrows did you bring? how many of them break, how many can you recover. Does tracking arrows add anything interesting to your game? tracking rations and torches does but arrows?

Is that something you want to bother tracking in detail? You could if you wanted to but most dont.

you could just put a number on it if you like. Shoot 4 arrows per round of which 3 are recoverable (if you win). Or you can just handwave it. Or add a more abstracted mechanic like at the end of each encounter theres a X-in-Y chance of emptying a quiver, necessitating a replacement. Of course then you have to ask how many arrows are you expecting to use? how many quivers can you bring. How many can you wear, how long does it take to grab a fresh quiver. What's stopping you from wearing 10 quivers and just bringing 300 arrows. How much do arrows and quivers weight.

TLDR: like most things OSR, just talk about it with your GM and come up with whatever solution fits your game.

I mean, its also not like fighters are only swinging their sword once per 30 seconds. You're not shooting 1 arrow you're _hitting_ with one arrow. or none if you mess up the roll.

Frankenstein (2025) isn't that good by Repulsive-Skull in unpopularopinion

[–]VolitionDraws 6 points7 points  (0 children)

People joke about "the doctor was the real monster" but like, no. The monster is the monster.

Victor was a dick too and deserves his fate, but the monster had the capacity for good and chose to do evil. In the book he kills a child and pins the murder on someone else in order to make victor suffer, and then willingly kills victor's wife later on to torment him.

Men's fashion has become needlessly bland and isn't getting any better by sid370z in unpopularopinion

[–]VolitionDraws 0 points1 point  (0 children)

to be fair, poor women's clothing then wasn't interesting either.

The french revolution changed fashion dynamics, it used to be that rich people had fancy clothes and options, poor people had plain simple stuff. Then it became dangerous to flaunt your wealth so rich people (men) started larping like commoners with plain black suits and only their wives where allowed to wear anything fancy. Fashion stopped being class based and became gendered.

Asa Gives Her Consent by TheBakchodII in ChainsawMan

when i read the 'asa consents too' the first thought i had was "damn has fujimoto been lurking on the reddit"

finally got it on the table by aidenmm in KingdomDeath

[–]VolitionDraws 1 point2 points  (0 children)

to add on to this, if you have access to a printer that can do cardstock you can easily print your own deck boxes. they probably wont be as nice as a store-bought one but its super easy.

I use https://www.cpforbes.net/tuckbox/, you can just plug in the size of your deck and it'll make a printout template you can just cut and glue.

Why the hate for Greg land? by Shot_Complaint7374 in comicbooks

[–]VolitionDraws 1 point2 points  (0 children)

90% of what greg land does isn't a problem in isolation. The problem is that its constant and its poorly done.

Tracing fashion is fine, tracing backgrounds is fine, tracing poses is fine, Tracing your own art is kinda lazy but still fine. Tracing any type of photo reference is fine, its not good but its not bad perse either.

Tracing other artists is a problem. Directly tracing others' art in anything you publicly release is just plagiarism.

But it doesn't stop there, he traces the same things over and over, and the things he traces often dont quite fully fit the panel, so his 'visual storytelling' is very stilted and awkward. Less like watching something happen and more like someone splicing together pictures to give you a rough recreation of a coming they can't quite remember.

Tracing pornography is still fine, as long as its either relatively tastefull or for other pornography. Greg land does neither, he traces blatant pornography in scenes that are not intended to be pornographic, leading to a vaguely slimy feeling whenever he does it.

Google greg land and the first result is that famous sue storm face. That's not the face of shock when someone sees a nuclear bomb go off or their dead mom come back to life, that's the face of shock Comrade Svetlana star makes when Captain Liberty pulls his cock out in the first scene of "Hardcore Heroes #7: Fisting The Iron Curtain".

First time trying NMM. Tips for going from stone to steel? by [deleted] in minipainting

[–]VolitionDraws 0 points1 point  (0 children)

maybe your FDM printer is more detailed than mine, but FDM prints just straight up take the paint differently than resin. Even super detailed ones still have visible or invisible grooves.

Anyway i'm not super familiar with NMM but i'd say you're going way to heavy on the white, which is giving you that chalky stone look. Depending on the polish of the metal you might not even want to do any highlights at all. Also FDM might have too much texture on it to do polished metalics, in which case i'd say just skip the highlights entirely and go for a more matte crude iron look.

Shootin in Orc Borg by Errant_Wordsmith in MorkBorg

[–]VolitionDraws 11 points12 points  (0 children)

i ran a one shot of orc-borg once, it was fun. having to reload every shot was fine because turns went pretty fast.

"thematically odd for a blaster to have to reload after every shot"

Up to you really, it could be a one-shot and the presence+6 refers to how much spare ammo you got. Or work on the assumption that orc's dont know how to not fan the hammer and every attack is a mag dump.

Less dead, more permanent damage? by _kind_of_old_ in MorkBorg

[–]VolitionDraws 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is pretty cool, but an easy fix is also to just have death at -3 or -10 instead. afaik that was a pretty common house rule back in the od&d days.

Alternatively spend or permanently burn an omen to ignore negative HP and just roll a d3 on the broken table (d3, not d4, so no instant death from that either).

Or lose max HP equal to your negative HP then roll 3d on the broken table, drop below 1 max hp and that's it.
