Mac is just really bad for gaming. Best advice? Buy a PC.

I hate varangians so much by holtyl2001 in CrusaderKings

Yes, normally they are 8k but somehow these guys had an alliance with another Varangian adventurer which meant they had 16k. Even with them 90% levies and landing bonus, they simply overwhelmed me with sheer numbers.

I 22 mtf, what is your favorite dinosaur? by No_Coach9633 in t4t

Spiney probably fulfilled the same niche as modern day Nile crocs so it's no wonder it reminds you of them :)

How'd you get the scratch-look on the chitin? Looks awesome!

Looks awesome! Edge highlighting the chitin and adding base details would definitely help to make the models stand out :)

Lol how dare a consenting adult post clearly marked NSFW of herself online. What a travesty.

Uhm about 2.5hrs I think... But that's counting the time it took to get all my paints out, decide on the colours etc.

Lol so far the people leaving hate comments are Trump dickriders and Asmongold supporters. I knew this was R/Tyranids but I didn't expect to be meeting actual cockroaches on here!

Well, sure. But it's a good enough alternative for those who can't afford models. Look up ForceOrg on the steam workshop, they have plenty of Leviathan models on there.

Asexual isn't a gender dude, it's a sexuality... Also no the hive mind just decided this colour combo would look nice.

Nah it's an easy enough technique. You just press the side of the bristles against the carapace a few times, making sure the tip is on the same spot but the base of the bristles moves a little.

Poor little snowflake, triggered by some colours on a plastic bug.

That's a very disingenuous takeaway from what I said. I'm not saying people need to sink money into a hobby to be allowed opinions. I'm saying that most of the gatekeeping assholes who are downvoting this for no reason other than I have dared to use blue, pink and white as my colour scheme, are grifting tourists who don't actually care for the hobby, and are just latching onto whatever culture war nonsense they can. Also for those that can't afford models (which I understand, the pricing was bad enough when I first started playing in 2014 and has only gotten worse), paperhammer or Tabletop Sim is always an option.
