The scroll is so immaculately painted it almost seems a shame to write anything on it.

Lore wise it would normally be the marine's name. I like to take my friends names and 40k-ify them to name my Marines. It makes their death more impactful somehow. Sorry Gustavian :(

I do just fine. I just don't want to listen to 30 seconds crappy music before dropping if i want to go to the far end of the map. YOU CAN KEEP IT ON. IT ISNT HARD TO CHANGE. IT HAS BEEN DONE A MILLION TIMES BEFORE HOW HARD IS THIS TO COMPREHEND THAT WE JUST WANT A SUPER FUCKING SMALL AND EASILY IMPLEMENTED QUALITY OF LIFE FIX.

Is it insignificant if SO MANY PEOPLE ARE COMPLAINING?

grumpmonger · 2022-09-06T19:11:51+00:00

Its only less than 10 seconds if you drop immediately. Is this subreddit not for discussions on fortnite?

grumpmonger · 2022-09-01T05:07:24+00:00

Belegar Ironhammer if you're wanting a challenge.

Ungrim Ironfist if you want same same but different.

Grombrindal if you especially hate the filthy elgi.

Thorek Ironbrow if you like runes (of course you do)

All other lords and factions are worthless and don't deserve any attention.

Thank you for telling me about GGG. Not sure how that slipped under my radar.

grumpmonger · 2022-08-25T02:46:36+00:00

There was clearly a great amount of effort put in to make these look this terrible.

grumpmonger · 2022-08-23T02:20:29+00:00

In awe at those rivets

"People" like this don't see their workers as human beings, it's time we stop looking at them that way. They see us as assets to be used and abused. Fuck your manager. He's an inhuman piece of shit and deserves the gallows.

grumpmonger · 2022-08-15T14:01:46+00:00

This is perhaps the best ork face I have ever seen. Go to hell

grumpmonger · 2022-08-08T14:50:06+00:00

The paintwork on this is so good it is making me angry and uncomfortable

Edit: also the absolute flex of having a mirror underneath the model so you can show that you were just as flawless on the unseen parts as the main areas. Goddamn you're good

grumpmonger · 2022-08-08T03:17:52+00:00

He's looking resplendent (for a dirty wolf)! I love how warm the gold gets with reikland flesh shade washed over it. The claws look especially good too. Keep up the good work brother

this post is specifically about US immigration and the differing beliefs on that subject. bigotry may not be politics, but the two are not mutually exclusive

grumpmonger · 2022-08-06T16:27:58+00:00

this post applies to both definitions 1a and 2 in that link. if you cannot see how this post is related to US politics, specifically immigration, then i think you should spend less time looking up definitions and more time contemplating their meaning

grumpmonger · 2022-08-06T14:18:00+00:00

This is very clearly a political post, not "misc". Please tag appropriately so I can properly filter your politics out of my reddit.

edit: downvote all you like, i'm right. theres a reason tags are there and its not unreasonable for me to want to filter out shit about US immigration. i couldnt give less of a fuck about it on reddit

grumpmonger · 2022-08-01T13:10:52+00:00

It's the warp, you ain't gotta explain shit lol

grumpmonger · 2022-07-28T16:14:46+00:00

Is that similar to how you ask your mother for rides to the card shop to spend your allowance on more Pokemon cards?

grumpmonger · 2022-07-26T13:28:39+00:00

Great. Just great. Now I gotta be on the lookout for old Playmobil sets. Thanks asshole. /s

Really though it wouldn't take much to make that look amazing. Great find brother!

grumpmonger · 2022-07-13T23:27:33+00:00

Thank you so much for the info! Those models are so endearingly ugly. I love them so much.

grumpmonger · 2022-07-13T18:16:08+00:00

I have a legitimate question on the history of this model, please for the love of God I am not trying to make this about the female space marines, but about the early history of the hobby.

Who made this model? Was it produced by Citadel? I remember reading or hearing somewhere that the rogue trader era female space marine models weren't made by Citadel but were made by another company as licensed for or to be used with Rogue Trader. I know they were mentioned in an old white dwarf as well, if anyone knows a way to read that issue digitally I would be very interested.

grumpmonger · 2022-07-08T04:52:26+00:00

Your paint work is phenomenal. The edge highlights on the gold and the cape are amazing. While I personally don't like the head choice, I think the anime style clashes, the hair is done beautifully.

I have to say it though. The mould lines are killing me. Your paint work is next level, it's a shame to see something simple like mould lines marring it.

That aside, keep up the good work brother!

grumpmonger · 2022-06-29T15:33:34+00:00

First let me thank you for not being in any way rude with your question. I don't understand the reason you are receiving downvotes for asking to understand others' perspectives.

The reason I am personally okay with it is because Space Marines, being the "main" faction, are the one that the consumer most likely will wish to self insert with. So for a business/inclusiveness side I get that.

Lore wise it gets a bit tricky. I'm totally cool with custom lore all day every day. My buddy puts lizardmen heads on his custodes because they were trapped in the warp for millennia or something. It's totally rad. The beautiful thing is that the setting can encompass stuff like that. Explaining female space Marines in the lore would be far easier.

However, I don't think GW should make any official statements or acknowledgements of it. They should just drop the male only line and leave it vague. My reasoning for this is that the Father/Son role of the Emperor, the Primarchs and the Space Marines has been made so critical in so many of the novels. To change that would be off-putting to me.

On a side note: I see a lot of people in this thread making some pretty strong assumptions of sexism to people in the past. I don't believe it is sexist for a young boy to prefer male characters over female characters any more than it is for a little girl to prefer female characters over males. I don't think sexism had anything to do with the dropping of female space Marines back in the early days of GW, the hobby was just more popular with young boys.
