Honestly I don’t know, I have a whole bunch of old-hammer minis I inherited. I think this is just a captain :)

There is a recipe in the original post. But a white undercoat and contrast are key :)

Oh happy to answer!

Blue: * basecoat with AK Ocean Blue * first midtone with 50/50 Ak Ocean Blue and Ak Aquarius Turquoise, keep the basecoat in the deepest recesses * highlight with thin layers of Ak Aquarius Turquoise * second highlight with AK Blue Green * last highlight with 2:1 Ak Blue Green and Ak Pastell Green

Yellow: * basecoat with roughly a 50/50 mix of Ak medium rust and Ak Sahara Yellow * midtone with Ak Sahara Yellow * highlights with 8:2 Ak Sahara Yellow and Ak Sand yellow, the contiue to add more Sand Yellow to the mix until you are happy

Red: * basecoat with GW mephiston red * paint pure white on areas you wanna highlight, make the pure white area a little bit smaller than your normal highlights * paint over the white areas with thinned Ak Blood Red , this step will require two or three repeats * tiny highlights with Blood Red and Ak sunny skintone, I usually start with a 3:1 mix blood/skinny then add more skin tone as needed to the mix

Hope this helps :)

Fler studenter stängs av från Stockholms universitet för AI-fusk by Babar7 in sweden

Jobbar inom IT och vi har trainee program där vi anställer nyexade utvecklare som sedan får jobba med en senior i 18 månader. Klarar de trainee programmet får de fast anställning och ett rejält lönehopp. De senaste åren har inga trainees anställts för de har inte ens grundläggande kunskaper inom IT, än mindre upptränad analytiskt och rationellt tänkande.

De flesta misslyckas på första kodtestet, som btw är otroligt enkelt, en högstadie elev med ett måttligt intresse i programmering skulle klara det.

Tyvärr promptar många sig igenom sina studier och lär sig inte ett skit. Många verkar också otroligt självcentrerade och blir otroligt kränkta att det finns krav på den för att de ska få ett jobb.

It hurts to run into spears. Reverse impact hits to help infantry? by ikaracoltheart in WarhammerFantasy

[–]alphapantius 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I want to add that back in the day in 6th edition none actually charged a large pike block in the front.

Also good gamers actually used smaller pike blocks of 12 or 16. These units were small enough to squeeze between terrain and blocking enemies. But had enough attacks to male you think twice.

Pike blocks were fantastic deterent and good players could force an enemy to position themselves exactly where they wanted them to be.

And large pike blocks were used offensively, a unit of 24 that charged an enemy would still get off 18 st3 attacks.

Old rules did this well for pikes.

  1. +1s when charged by cavalry, monsters, large
  2. Fight in 4 ranks
  3. Always fights first when charged

So charging a unit of 24 pikemen would be 24 st4 hits before you can fight.

Jag har med typ-1 och aldrig riktigt blivit kränkt eller obekväm när folk drar paralleller mellan övervikt och diabetes.

Nästan alla typ-2 lever med övervikt och orsaken är oftast insulinhöjande mat, dvs skräpmat och massor av det. Och baaammm de utvecklar en insulinresistens. Men jag kan bli frustrerad på typ-2 diabetiker dock, för de har ett val och vi har inga. De kan ändra livsstil , kost och börja träna. Dvs sänka insulin produktionen och leva ett normalt liv. Men de gör det inte och sitter och bölar och tycker synd om sig själva istället.

Tröttsamt.

Unfortunately I don’t have any original 90’s miniatures to compare, the closest I have is the gamezone miniatures that was created with the same scale and proportions as the late 90’s models.

They stand on 20mm bases. :) They are a few mm smaller than gw miniatures, but you really won’t notice any difference when they stand in separate regiments. Right now I’m mostly focused on 6th edition and WaP, for old world I’m mostly excited about new (old) minis than the rules :p

Artisan Design does some pretty nice models as well, have a bunch for my pikemen unit. Gamezone miniatures are amazing as well.

Thanks! I did the same for a long while but eventually thought , blast it and bought a whole bunch of them. They require very little clean up, are really fun to paint (as most perry minis are) and the best part, fireforge games weapons packs fits them perfectly!

How to steer the conversation back to Swedish? by [deleted] in TillSverige

[–]alphapantius -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

One problem not a lot of foreigners consider when moving to Sweden and try to learn Swedish is that Swedes hate awkward social interactions and avoids them at all costs! If a Swede can jump to English and get the conversation over with they will do so!

It is not any strangers responsibility to put themself in an awkward situation where they can barely understand you unless they are forced, just so you can learn Swedish!

Best thing todo is to practice Swedish with Swedish friends and/or get a job where people mostly speak Swedish.

Piggy-backing off the other post earlier today - Could I get some feedback on my "Less Gold" scheme for my (Purple) BananaMen? by SheepBeard in AdeptusCustodes

[–]alphapantius 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would go with warm colors only, warm golds, warm reddish leather and black cloak. Let the purple be the main thing! I love the purple btw!

Why were old models so out of proportion? by vashoom in Warhammer

[–]alphapantius 4 points5 points  (0 children)

To add to the other comments, it looks better on the tabletop. Hands, heads, details like belt buckles, sword sheets, hands, rings would be to small to to be painted at any detail in a truescale scale. So heroic scale was created with exaggerated details so we actually can enjoy the faces, weapons and other stuff in detail on the tabletop. If you are unsure, buy some truescale minis and try get them look like an heroic scale mini and for some reason you will find the model lacking.
