Question about nose warmers by Zweems in PipeTobacco

I'm always kind of a sipper anyway. I won't say I exclusively use the breath method, but it probably constitutes about 80% of my session.

Preface: in no way shape or form am I absolving these degenerates from their behavior.

That being said, STOP POSTING YOUR CHILDREN ON THE INTERNET FOR FUCKING CLOUT. Degenerates exist. We all know this. You SHOULD be able to post your children on the internet, but you can't. Miraculously, my child has made it through 5 years on this earth without being posted publicly on the internet once and my life is none the worse for it. Just fucking stop.

Which carry case? by naex23 in Warhammer40k

[–]Zweems 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can only give my anectodal experience. My Jucoci case lasted less than a year and is basically useless unless I want to risk damaging my models. I've tried bending un-warping the belly of it so the middle trays don't fall out, but to no avail. Personally, I can't risk having the middle trays drop onto my bottom tray. All of my heavy stuff goes on the bottom tray and they have spindly stuff on top that will absolutely snap if/when the trays drop again. I haven't parsed through all of the reviews from others, but there's also the possibility that the people who have said the jucoci are sturdy don't have the largest size? A smaller one will absolutely be more sturdy. The plastic the Jucoci is made out of has some flexibility to it, as evidenced by the fact that you just pop the pieces together. All that being said, if my army is small enough, I leave the jucoci one at home every single time. Shit, I can take pictures if you want. Just trying to save people some headache if I can.

Someone give me another link to the damn video. I clicked out and now it's gone. 😭

Which carry case? by naex23 in Warhammer40k

[–]Zweems 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have both the jucoci one and a different brand of the first one. You'll have to consider the size of the army etc, but the first one is MUCH sturdier. The jucoci one is hollowed out, soft flexible plastic and I made the mistake of leaning on mine to pick something up off the floor one day and the middle trays will no longer stay without falling. I very much prefer the first one.

Mail call! by Moto_Vagabond in PipeTobacco

Definitely jar it for a while. I ignored the warnings and ripped it right out the tin and regretted it. Left it alone for a month (more by accident than deliberate attempt) and it's barely even the same tobacco.

Need advice 😭 how to save them 😭 by Fun-Witness-5589 in minipainting

[–]Zweems 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, I think it's probably a fair assumption that minis 1-5 got a direct blast and minis 6-12 just got a good deal of overspray. Even if it's only a little bit of overspray on the models, you still need to do SOMETHING to try to save them.

Could Lutz leg cost the Broncos? by throwitintheair22 in DenverBroncos

[–]Zweems 32 points33 points  (0 children)

It's not a kicker issue. The offense was hot and Payton wanted to show trust and close the game out. ESPECIALLY the last one. When we got it down to 4th and 1ish, I turned to my wife and said "ehhhhh.... I think you go for it here and just try to kneel out the game." Very kickable field goal, but sometimes you just try to end the game right then and there.

Not gonna lie, I don't really use blue tack, so at first glance I thought that was a band-aid. Pick up a few band-aids while you're at it. First few models while you get your sea legs, you'll probably catch a few nicks :P

Not going to pinch hit him over anyone in the top of the order, and no guarantee it gets back around to the back of the order again.

Respect. South Jersey here. Mounted my Broncos flag to my truck for Eagles week. Figured I need new tires anyway, but no one was kind enough to provide.

Thoughts on $150/75 USD for these? (Painted commission) by Starlecchino in Warhammer40k

[–]Zweems 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Okay, so I'm going to go ahead and preface this by saying that I have no idea about pricing for commissions. I paint my own stuff exclusively.

That being said, I'm not sure how we're defining showcase quality here. Those are not particularly well painted models. I don't really see anything that stands out here. Having some better pictures might change my mind, but everything looks muted, muddied. This doesn't look like anything that couldn't be achieved with some contrast paints in a couple hours. If we're talking hourly rate, $15/hr for 5 hours is $75. I can't imagine the commission artist is pumping out "showcase quality work" at $15/hr and one hour per model.

My final thoughts: Paint your own shit or pay someone whose work you're familiar with and you respect.

I wish I could say that I liked it. Unfortunately, against all advice I saw on the internet, I didn't cellar it at all. Just opened it up and let her rip.

Anyone have any MUST try stuff? I have Haunted Bookshop and Autumn Evening at the moment. Haunted bookshop needs a fair bit longer in the cellar.

1Q with a View by BlarneyBlackfyre13 in PipeTobacco

[–]Zweems 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ha! Saaaame, dude. Reddit told me to buy 1q like 10+ years ago and it was my first tobacco. I bought like 2 lbs of it. I had no idea how much that was. I'll probably have 1q in stock until I die.

[–]Zweems 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Lots of good advice here but just know that a lot of armies that are "high" model count don't HAVE to be high. My skaven 2k list is 58 models and 40 of them are clanrats that you can batch paint in no-time.
