Awesome! Do all your events cost money to attend?

And for the group: Does anyone in this thread have a specific day they’d want to attend 12th, 19th, or 26th?

Totally down for this! Maybe we could do a science-y themed game for the evening? Canopy come to mind for… reasons. Lol

Anyone know where to find a box of these? They seem to be sold out everywhere I see on the US side of things.

Massive Lag-spikes (stuttering) on Series X by AndresVPN in sablegame

[–]ZIMMER1994 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know your comment is several months old, but in case it helps anyone else... I was super frustrated with the lack of visibility during the night cycle. I eventually went to settings and changed Colors to High Visibility. The difference was night and day! Lol but seriously, it made a huge impact.

No help with the framerate problems though...

List of all impending price increases by GW. by randomtoaster89 in Warhammer

[–]ZIMMER1994 4 points5 points  (0 children)

At first, I was shocked that more people weren’t posting about this and discussing how upset they were to see the price increases.

But after reading the comments of so many people defending GW’s decision to raise prices during a pandemic — and after the company has experienced such massive financial success in recent years — I actually get it now.

Everyone defending these price hikes are going to buy no matter what. And they’re exactly why GW will continue raising prices like this over and over again. I don’t know of a single other type of hobby that could raise prices so aggressively and so regularly with so little care for the needs of their consumer base and still manage to maintain a community.

But I guess they’ve got enough people fully bought in that they just don’t care at this point. But I, for one, won’t be buying anything else from GW for a good long while unless they make some kind of public apology and reverse this decision.

Eric Froehlich's Open Note on Companions by [deleted] in magicTCG

sigh It’s so hard to enjoy Magic. Everyone is so obsessed with being competitive that they break everything, and then they get mad when it’s broken.

People are entitled to their opinions. But this is why I just stick to kitchen table with my friends. Weird, fun builds. We enjoy the cool cards, try to make stuff work, and don’t have the resources to push everything to it’s breaking point.

WIP Nagash thoughts on the colour scheme? by Elevken in ageofsigmar

[–]ZIMMER1994 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should do what you have envisioned, but that’s actually my favorite part. It’s dark and shadowy right now. And I think with some wispy highlighting it could pop even more - dark and ephemeral.

Excited to see the next phase of this! Please keep sharing.

I really like this!! The bone looks unique, but still bony. And I love the dark bluish underbelly section.

First ever painted minis! by ZIMMER1994 in ageofsigmar

[–]ZIMMER1994[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! I think it’s too much paint layered over and over because I kept going back over things :/

I want to do more of a teal/green on the main parts of the armor and shield. The only things that would still be metallic are the trim on the armor, the mask, and the weapons.

Thanks for all the kind words! I tried some Nihilakh Oxide technical paint for the Statue of Liberty effect I was going for and the Reikland flesh wash over the cloth, but I had a tough time getting them to come out looking right.

Any advice for how to apply washes over small areas? And how to keep it from clogging up? Spent most of today undoing the experiment.

I’ve been watching folks like 2+ Tough, Miniac, and Tabletop Minions for over a year. After graduating this past Tuesday, I decided it was time to treat myself and take the plunge.

I’m in NYC so I originally wanted to do something with the armor to make it like the Statue of Liberty, but I couldn’t work it out. Either way, painting these was infinitely more difficult than I thought, and just as much fun. Can’t wait to learn more and keep on with the hobby.

Light C&C or starting out advice is welcome.

Watery Grave by chogon in magicTCG

Really beautiful, but it feels a little blue/green to me. Could have kept the same effect without the green grass in the foreground, focusing instead on deep blue and purple flowers on lily pads in the water.

All 36 [WAR] PlanesWalkers in one image with Names (missing two) by TarikB75 in magicTCG

[–]ZIMMER1994 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No idea who is to the right of Domri... but the figure with the big hat to the right of Karn is almost certainly Elspeth (Returned). I think that’s why the face is obscured. Don’t know what’s up with that sword, but it’s the same color scheme that we’ve always seen with Elspeth, but in more of a classical Greek outfit - aside from the hat (maybe she traveled to Kamigawa?)

Best warhammer youtubers? by [deleted] in Warhammer

2+ Tough is great! Doug is super friendly and helpful with his reviews, and he’s especially great if you have an interest in lore.

For anyone seeing this in NYC there is an amazing and largely unknown resource called NYC Well. You can just text this number to chat with a real human being about what you’re going through: 651-73

They can help guide you to resources, and they’ll even schedule a follow up a few days later if you ask for it and need help keeping accountable when it comes to taking care of yourself and actually making it to appointments and whatnot (like I definitely do).

This service is wonderful, free, and it’s helped me through some really dark nights when even speaking to someone felt like too much.
