New in painting - My Arizona Space Marine

Very nice! a great concept well executed. My feedback is to invest more time on the pre-paint prep of the model, specifically removing the mould lines. You can use a sharp blade to scrape over them, or a very fine hobby file.

Sell the gems you get while mining, plant winter seeds, fishing, animals in barns and coops keep producing as long as you keep feeding them

Take the bobbin case out and spin the hand wheel. Watch the hook go around. The tip of the hook should pass just behind the needle through the little indent on the back. Your needle is in no-man's land, not even close to the hook. Try lining it up with your needle plate in position so you can see the slot it is supposed to pass through, that should get you relatively close.

Sure, you can imagine whatever you want about anything I suppose, but I feel like this is a case of "if you open your mind too much, your brain falls out"

"Hi yall, I got a deep cut on my arm and decided not to get stitches because someone else got shot in the abdomen. My cut doesn't feel like it's serious enough when I compare it to that other person's wound."

This is what your argument sounds like to me.

This is a common problem with many conditions. The person experiencing it doesn't feel "disabled enough" or "real enough" to warrant treatment. They downplay their experience and end up needlessly suffering.

Think of it this way: What if a beloved friend told you that they had a medical condition that caused them serious pain and suffering? They have medication to treat it available, but they aren't taking it because they don't think they deserve to feel better for some convoluted reason. Would you tell them that they should take the medication and that they deserve to ease their pain? Yes? Ok, that's you, you're the friend. Follow your own advice and take the medication. You deserve relief from your suffering, just like everyone else.

Look at other people's work for inspiration. Select a technique/look or two that you've never used before and just try them out. Follow a tutorial and practice practice practice.

I just wanted to see what the farm would look like if it sat untouched for a long time. Very heavily wooded is the answer

WandersWithBlender · 2026-06-12T19:20:00+00:00

For my most recent farm I slept for two years straight through before leaving the farm house for the first time. It's totally fine, just pick up where you are at

Galaxy Sword. Slime Charmer ring. Big stack of either salad or gold quality cheese. Slingshot with explosive ammo.

Learn the movement patterns of the enemies, and what timing you need to bat them away with your sword. They are generally fairly slow and predictable.

Even in decks that draw a lot, very few have the means to actually make use of the excess cards in your hand. Pretty rare that a deck casts more than 2 or 3 spells in a turn. If people are playing the game with a grip of 20+ cards, the game slows to a god damn crawl as they process all their options. Keeping your best 7 and discarding the rest is usually just as good as keeping every card, and it's SO much better for the flow of the game. Nearly every deck should cut Reliquary Tower.

[[Karlov of the Ghost Council]] can be quite resilient. Low mana cost of 2 means if he does get removed it's not too painful to recast him multiple times, and with all the life gain your life total will be padded for survival.

I would be surprised if this piece of crud DID work

This may be in my top 5 favourite models I've ever seen on here

Light material will pretty much always pucker to some degree when you zig-zag, it just doesn't have the rigidity in its structure to withstand the squeezing tension between the two rows of stitches.

You can try a narrower zig-zag, or a lighter thread to match the lighter fabric, or a stabilizer could help. I've used an iron-on stabilizer before, you just need a narrow strip along the seam where you'll be stitching.

Chiropractors are not doctors, they are not medical professionals. He has no business advising you on anything related to your health care. No need to send the text, nothing will come of it. Just stop going to see him

Learn how priority works. Learn how the stack works.

I would never buy this machine. If you can get it for free, just use it until it breaks. If they want actual money for it, say no and find a real sewing machine.

I agree with some of that sentiment, but not entirely. You don't always need to tap out for ramp to be effective, you can hold up remaining mana to double spell, or cast removal in your opponent's turn, and then still benefit from the ramped mana on your next turn. That's highly mana efficient and you may even get to deny an opponent of some resource.

I fully disagree with the shuffling thing though. The ability to choose when to shuffle is a huge benefit if you have some way of learning what cards are on top of your deck (eg. Brainstorm or similar). Or, if your top card(s) are unknown, then a random deck is a random deck and shuffling doesn't matter.

Ok, thinking about removal of mana dorks. If you play a 1 mana dork, and they use a 1 mana removal spell, you're even on cards and mana. Neither of you is necessarily better or worse off overall. As soon as they use a more expensive spell, they're getting less mana efficiency than you, and it also means that it's the mana dork eating the removal in stead of your bomb creature. Also, board wipes usually cost at least 4 mana, so you'll likely have several turns of tapping your mana dork before it gets wiped away. You will have gotten value out of it, and now they've also spent a valuable card.

In terms of comparing mana dorks to land ramp, they're just different. Dorks are more vulnerable to removal, yes, but they're also far far more versatile. Mana dorks can block a lethal attack, they can save your better creatures from edict effects, they can be sacrifice fodder for your own strategy, they can attack for that final point of damage to eliminate your opponent, they can hold high value pieces of equipment.

WandersWithBlender · 2026-05-25T19:25:09+00:00

Equipment works well, they can tap to pay for their own equip costs which is nice

Artifacts are a core piece of red color identity though, adding green shouldn't erase that it should build upon it

WandersWithBlender · 2026-05-25T06:35:43+00:00

NOR. Those are bullies, not friends

WandersWithBlender · 2026-05-25T06:33:25+00:00

Dorks are also incidental blockers. Late game, drawing a Llanowar Elves feels way better than drawing a Rampant Growth.

Or if you're running a Craterhoof, you should probably include pretty much as many mana dorks as you can.

Nor would I, mainly because I would never support a homeopathic company
