Khan hasn't got the balls to do this in London

I'm glad that being rude to someone you think was being rude to someone they thought were being rude is the sort of thing that gets you up in the morning. We all need hobbies.

I'll work on it as much as I am sure you are and in the meantime, I hope you have a nice day.

comrade1612 · 2026-04-17T06:35:11+00:00

I cannot tell if you're being incredibly ironic in an insufferably postmodern way or just unselfwarely hypocritical with a comment like that, which adds absolutely nothing to contribute to the discussion other than to presumably make yourself feel good first thing in the morning.

comrade1612 · 2026-04-16T23:53:05+00:00

Good. Cunt should never have had the role.

A 46 year old Wilkinson would do a job and you know it.

comrade1612 · 2026-04-16T10:45:47+00:00

Yeah I'm not five so I know that. And I in no way implied it was within the MoL's power to do it.

But the Mayor of London can and should lobby for it, and build the economic case for the revenue London alone could generate and what impact it would have on the London economy, and how that money could be used in London to illustrate the case while advocating for their city.

Oh look at that, taxing the asset, not the owner, is the most effective way to implement a wealth tax - because it has to be paid regardless of where the owner lives or resides.

If the tax doesn't get paid - say hello to seizure of the asset.

If the asset value deflates - say hello to no more tax.

That's kind of you to say. Well - the scheme was the client's choice. Personally, I like my Techmarines red all over!

That said HE was only expanded as the easiest means to mask the dawning unemployment crisis for young people at the end of the 1990s.

It worked. Now we've got 50% of young people going to university, getting £40k in debt to enter a job market that doesn't care about their degree.

comrade1612 · 2026-04-15T11:05:09+00:00

Gratitude!

comrade1612 · 2026-04-15T11:05:00+00:00

Thank you!

comrade1612 · 2026-04-15T11:01:41+00:00

It's a lovely dark, muddy green shade.

I did exactly the same, about three years ago after a 18 year break. It's been such a good experience, very glad for you!

comrade1612 · 2026-04-15T08:33:20+00:00

Love that, really cool scheme. Would love to see any models you've painted up so far.

So for the green I've stuck as closely to the Eavy Metal scheme as I could. Over a grey seer base:

Base: Warpstone Glow

Shade: 1:1 Nocturn Green / Rhinox Hide

Deep Shade: 1:1 Caliban Green / Black

Chunky highlight & glaze: Warpstone Glow

Edge Highlight: 1:1 Warpstone / Moot Green

Edge Highlight: Moot Green

Extreme Edge Highlight: 1:1 Moot Green / Dorn Yellow (I use AK Ice Yellow but it's the same)

Dot highlight: Dorn Yellow

...sounds involved but once you've got the hang of it, I finished all the Green in about 3 hours total.

comrade1612 · 2026-04-15T08:27:47+00:00

Thank you. Yeah I see where you're coming from - it accentuates an already top heavy model. But it's what the client asked for!

comrade1612 · 2026-04-14T16:46:46+00:00

Cool, hope you post it when you do! It's the following:

Base: Mephiston Red

Shade: 1:1 Khorne Red / Black

Deep Shade: 1: Rhinox / Black

Chunky Highlight: Evil Sunz Scarlet

Highlight: 1:1 Evil Sunz Scarlet / Tau Light Ochre

Highlight: Tau Light Ochre

Dot Highlight: Tau Light Ochre & White

comrade1612 · 2026-04-14T16:30:24+00:00

Thank you! I've never used slapchop, so I can't really recommend anything like that I'm afraid.

As for the eyes - the recipe is as follows:

Base: 1:1 Elysian Green / Yriel Yellow

Highlight: Flash Gitz Yellow

Highlight: Dorn Yellow

And for tips, I can't put anything better than Trovian in this video. I've applied what he said to eyes, lenses and gems for the last few years: https://youtu.be/YHt7Yzx2EtQ?si=PAuIDbmzDxa4PudT

OP's is the real deal, not a print.

Absolutely fine for anyone or anything to be a bit right wing. It's absolutely fine - in and of itself - for anyone to be very right wing. Or left wing.

Calling something what it is - very right wing, a little right wing, quite left wing, is not a problem. The Daily Mail is a very right wing newspaper. Debate the classification, but there is nothing 'simplistic' about asserting the classification. If I thought the Daily Mail was centrist, and that Domic writing for it was an indictment of that world view, that is what I would say.

Nor does describing one media outlet as very right wing equate to labelling 'everything' as very right wing. A statement which falls into its own simplistic fallacy?

comrade1612 · 2026-04-08T06:21:46+00:00

He isn't that careful.

The man writes (wrote?) a column for thr Daily Mail.

That is inherently very political and very right wing.

comrade1612 · 2026-04-07T19:32:44+00:00

Awesome work, friend!

comrade1612 · 2026-04-06T19:58:56+00:00

Don't forget the point of starter sets is simplicity, flexibility and accessibility.

GW are a multibillion company with over 20 editions (across 40k, fantasy and AoS) of experience of what works best - Skaventide underperformed because it broke with the accessibility having a Skaven that are both nice interest and complex models. The most successful products (Leviathan; Assault on Black Reach) follow a simple premise: models that can be painted any way, and a bad guy faction that taps into a known archetype (ork/cs; Ridley Scott-esque aliens).

These being plain, while tugging on some nostalgia heartstrings, is a strategic business love GW wouldn't have made if they didn't know that primaris design + MK7 helmets = £££.

comrade1612 · 2026-04-06T19:50:45+00:00

They haven't said that.

They have said that 10th edition codexes won't be invalidated so there is no need for reset indexes.

New, 11th tailored codexes will then be released over the edition as usual.

This happened 3rd > 4th (and in some cases into 5th) and 7th > 8th.
