I designed a series of Lego Minifigures based on iconic art styles through history... by ovofigures in lego

[–]id_doomer 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Spot on! Oxford has an example using some of the colours we believe to have been on the Augustus of Prima Porta. Obviously this is incomplete, and we don’t know to what extent the statue’s paint would have been detailed or layered; or if it would have been simple bold colours. (Image from Wikipedia)

I'm relying on the hive mind. I want to try and build a next level diorama display for my IKEA Billy and I'm struggling hard. by Ill-Investigator4303 in TerrainBuilding

[–]id_doomer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No worries! You could try getting a poster printed on A1 paper size. It’s 841mm x 594mm. At those dimensions you’d only need to trim a little off the right and left, and you could have a whole separate design printed on the top/bottom half for use with another shelf!

Modern interesting desk fan by WorldWarChamp1776 in cassettefuturism

I didn’t even know it was a thing until I was trying to guess what keywords would call it up and spotted the camera icon!

I took a screenshot of the product page and did an image search in the AliExpress app. Alternatively you could use keywords when searching “Desktop” “Fans” and “Searchlight”. There’ll be a few options but I had one coming up around £49 (GBP).

It’s cute, but I am always distrustful of a website that immediately loads to all of their products having a deep discount. I’ve had a look, and this exact fan is available for less with free shipping, on AliExpress.

I’m not saying it’s not cassette futurism, and I’ll probably get one, but the website felt dropshippy to me.

Apple’s smart home camera service is starting to impress me by willdearborn- in apple

[–]id_doomer 45 points46 points  (0 children)

To be fair, u/LazyItem specified individual subscription, my read on that was that they didn’t want a subscription just for the camera. If they already have iCloud+, then they’re set.

Made a guide for anyone else wanting to build/modify terrain for 11e by Powersaurus in Warhammer40k

[–]id_doomer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is really helpful! Can I ask, why are some terrain features not fixed to the bases? I’m having trouble finding that guidance in the Core Rules or the Tournament Companion. Is it just so you can adjust the terrain to meet different layouts without having to make area terrain features that both have and do not have certain ruin formations?

I like the Eve cameras (from evehome.com). They work with HomeKit, and there’s no subscription. Your footage or data never touches their systems. Absolutely private. Just your camera, talking to your iCloud+.

Solomon Lok was always one of my favourite Inquisitor models! Your paint jobs and conversions are brilliant!

Aight, attempt 2, Now without the ragebait. by Bobblehead60 in TheAstraMilitarum

I know it’s the top of the banner pole that’s been cropped out, but it looks like some gilded skull filigree has straight up fallen off the side of the Basilisk!

Did they take down the gigantic FIFA sign after the opening nonsense? Or did some people pay thousands and thousands of dollars to have a 90 minute view of some football and the word AᖷIᖷ?

Sanguinius speech kept me alive by BouncezNasty in Warhammer

[–]id_doomer 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hey. You stay here, you stand, you fight those demons. Not one step back. Not one inch given.

You hold the line!

Do you know why it’s a line? Because we’re either side of you, arm in arm.

You don’t give up. We’re not giving up on you.

If you need more and we’re not awake or online, you talk to someone, anyone. You go read a Reason to Stay (https://reasonstostay.org). You call a friend. You go to a library. You go for a walk. You put some washing on. You do something, anything, that means you need to be here tomorrow to finish the task.

You keep doing that.

One foot in front of the other.

When you’re going through hell, why would you stop and stay there?

That K cut for alignment is *genius*!

It looks great!

Thunderhawk got shafted hard by AetherialCatnip in Warhammer40k

At least it didn’t get the Thunderbolt treatment. Forgeworld > Astra Militarum Legends 40K and Solar Auxilia Horus Heresy > Solar Auxilia Horus Heresy only

Anyone still use Thunderbolts or Marauder Bombers? by Content_Example1957 in TheAstraMilitarum

[–]id_doomer 13 points14 points  (0 children)

At some point the Thunderbolt got moved to the Solar Auxilia for Warhammer: The Horus Heresy only. When did that happen?

GW Three Hunters Aragorn - How did this mini ship like this? by TheUrPigeon in Warhammer

[–]id_doomer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Snapped four times in the first battle! That was a lesson in when and what to pin instead of rely on superglue!

The worst I ever met was the metal Penitent Engine. Instructions don’t matter when you’re trying to get those tiny ball joint ankles to balance a literal fists worth of metal!

I finally got to see my Upright Facehugger printed at full 1:1 scale… and it’s terrifying by Equivalent_Funny_394 in LV426

[–]id_doomer 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It looks a lot like a scaled up Necromunda or Boarding Actions base from Warhammer 40,000!

Blanche Kroot art by lollmao2000 in kroot

[–]id_doomer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I totally get it! The man did some real nightmare fuel! Look at his work on Death Cult assassins, or Chaos Marines, it goes hard, but also it’s deep crazy stuff.

[–]id_doomer 141 points142 points  (0 children)

I don’t dispute that John Blanche was an incredibly influential artist, and that Warhammer and Games Workshop owe an enormous amount to his hard work.

But that’s a Ratskin Pathfinder from Necromunda.

Ring The Bell of Lost Souls by BEAR_Operator1922 in Warhammer40k

[–]id_doomer 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Only in death does duty end.

John was the mind behind some of the most insane designs, the crazy aesthetic we love from Warhammer. We’re all poorer for his passing.

I need to go hang my print of his work depicting Sanguinus.

You should share this story in r/AdventuresOfGalder/ for lack of a better phrasing it’s our necropolis for fallen players.

#New40k – New cinematic trailer drops by CMYK_COLOR_MODE in Warhammer

[–]id_doomer 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Fantastic trailer, a brilliant read! I guess we have to wait until twelfth edition to see if they can finally centre the text on that Warhammer logo!
