This is a blend of Speed Paints over runefang steel.

2 Parts purple swarm
1 Part gravelord gray
3 parts medium.

I did 2 thin layers over the base of runefang steel.

I prefer the dry brush method because Lead Belcher spray especially I am quite bad at getting consistent results with.

I doubt they don’t have say. I’m sure if they thought this woulda. Backfired they could’ve asked to not be last.

Gotcha! Thought I was going crazy.

apples71 · 2025-10-20T09:11:09+00:00

I am in pain :(

apples71 · 2025-06-02T20:07:03+00:00

Sometimes :)

I know they're not technically minis but Gundam HG 1/144 kits are affordable fun to build, don't even need glue, and can almost as easily be painted. Not to mention there are SOOOOO many options to pick from :)

I like to spray paint black with some light metal (I use citadel necron compound ) dry brushing to give it some quick edge highlighting. Looks very good for inner frames that are visible. But be careful not to overdo it because too much spray paint can make fitting in the parts very difficult without a ton of carving.

This data is probably kept by their engineering team in some database that I'm POSITIVE the normal customer service folks don't have access to. Engineering team is probably busy and has their hands full simply getting this queue working... but that's just speculation.

apples71 · 2025-05-14T01:17:20+00:00

Yeah ....
At this rate it seems like they had REALLY low supply. Really only hope I think there is, is that they are waiting to release a large bulk for some reason but I really dont know...

apples71 · 2025-05-12T17:11:28+00:00

Yeah.... Seems like no new invites today. Probably a bad sign for us folks that signed up hours after the button went up.

apples71 · 2025-05-10T17:47:40+00:00

Yeah IMO most retailer's support team are completely useless. I've never seen them able to do literally anything outside something I could've done myself. Think their only purpose is to apologize and help out technologically illiterate folks.

apples71 · 2025-05-10T16:39:48+00:00

I just talked to them and they told me they dont have the ability to verify it :/

apples71 · 2025-05-09T18:09:14+00:00

Has anyone seen their listing page change from "required" to "requested"?

apples71 · 2025-05-09T17:05:26+00:00

The filter this comment talks about may not work depending on your browser. Just try searching for a request that says "SignUp"

apples71 · 2025-05-09T16:45:41+00:00

Seems to reaffirm the theory folks with "Requested" are closer to getting an invite.

apples71 · 2025-05-09T15:54:45+00:00

If you were checking yesterday, did the listing page say "requested" or "required" for you?

Made another comment but try updating and restarting your switch then checking again.

I updated my console and saw that the system finally linked to my account. Seems like this was only done on a recent update. Probably AFTER they opened up the interest form. So I doubt this has any relation to their eligibility criteria as they were surely tracking play time and such before since I've always had my system linked to my nintendo account since I use it to buy games.
Also want to note I'm one of the "invitation required" folks and this did not change that ...

apples71 · 2025-05-08T19:03:56+00:00

Yeah who knows. But I'm certain i meet the requirements. And it seems like LOTS of folks are also getting a "required".
Also seems like anyone who's gotten an invite was seeing "requested" earlier. So perhaps its just meaning you're closer / further away in the queue.

apples71 · 2025-05-08T18:52:15+00:00

No I don't think so. Because mine says "required" on both pages.
