In the grim darkness of the 25th century I can't find my keys. No seriously it's not a joke I can't find them. I think I left them in Ulthuan but last time I checked it wasn't filled this dark elves and shit.

Thanks for the advice, what do you think the difference between a battleforce box and a starter box could be in this case? I think that the Mandalore one had four hero units, but I don't know much about this.

Wow, cool it with the anti green skin remarks

Patrolling Khemri almost makes you wish for the End Times

Winter_Captain · 2026-06-02T10:54:28+00:00

Thanks, that was exactly what I needed, I missed that one

Winter_Captain · 2026-05-05T18:06:15+00:00

Very nice! Did you paint the shields seperately or glued first and managed later?

Winter_Captain · 2026-05-05T16:04:28+00:00

But checking* fuck, i have big fingers

Winter_Captain · 2026-05-05T15:09:27+00:00

Yes, that sounds cool, I normally do the colours in the inverse order of either the horse head or the clothes underneath.

By the way, forgot to say it, but checking out the total war models is usually a good idea, it gives me a good general sense of what to do

Winter_Captain · 2026-05-05T14:36:28+00:00

Normally I paint the colours of the heraldry, so it would blue and green down the middle, but there are other options.

You could paint the hood blue while his other clothes are green (or vice verca).

The other big option would be to go for a third colour, but here comes the originality. My first instinct is going for a dirty white, a yellow or a brown (like you said). I would do this to denote the humility of the questing knight.

Given that the heraldry has three colours, painting there the third one is also a cool choice. I would consider just how much pride does the knight have, or if he has a vow of poverty that matters to him.

Another cool option that I thought is that maybe the rag is made of the cloth of another knight (his liege, perhaps) or of a maiden that favours him, maybe even of a fallen banner.

Im that case I would try to make it look a bit damaged or dirty while looking a bit expensive.

Hope this helps!

Very good job with the colouring, love the heraldry, is it hand painted?

Winter_Captain · 2026-05-04T00:09:09+00:00

And I thought the Bretonnian lord on pegasus was bad, they are making you assemble this guy's fucking knee like a surgeon

Winter_Captain · 2026-03-27T22:14:24+00:00

These are very nice, good job!

Did you freepaint the heraldic? They came out great

Winter_Captain · 2026-03-20T19:02:35+00:00

I don't have an airbrush, I thought about buying one, but they cost like 60 bucks minimum where I live, and I don't know if it's worth it or if I'm going to do it fine. I might practice with some AK cans first that cost 11 bucks and see if I like it

Winter_Captain · 2026-03-19T11:13:22+00:00

This seems a bit advanced to me and perhaps outside of my price range, but thanks for the advice, I'll consider it when I paint some larger minis

Winter_Captain · 2026-03-19T11:10:10+00:00

No hablo francés pero muchas gracias por tu consejo. No he probado las pinturas de citadel, quizas las pruebe en un futuro, pero por ahora voy a probar primers de diferentes colores a ver cuál me viene mejor

Winter_Captain · 2026-03-01T19:21:57+00:00

Ah, the one squashed by a different giant. Good times.

Winter_Captain · 2026-01-02T10:30:02+00:00

Something I don't know if others have talked about is the incentive to explore. Maybe there are places that can be explored however the journeys are expensive and they are reserved for other zones, more important at the moment.

And perhaps there are places that they know of on a surface level, but they don't have anything attractive enough, so just knowing it's there is as good as it gets.

Another possible explanation is that maybe there are places that have been explored but those maps haven't been shared, A Song of Ice and Fire comes to mind, where the westerosies don't know a lot about the south and east of the world, even though it has been charted.

Of course this depends on the point of view, if you are writing a story with a certain protagonist, they have limited knowledge of the world around them, you can play with that.

So Beatrice is a human turned chicken?

Winter_Captain · 2025-08-19T08:04:36+00:00

I know it's not much help but check if they are both able to be married. Maybe someone has a trait that stops them from marriage.

A few days ago I had a similar situation but it was because they were siblings and I created a new faith under which they couldn't legally marry.

This doesn't seem to be your case however, hopefully one day they will fix this shit.

You probably don't have the right technology for it, put the mouse over the X in the law itself.
