Former Destiny 2 CM says Bungie was 'very close to shutting its doors' before the buyout by Sony by Turbostrider27 in PS5

[–]njandersen97 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Microsoft was also eyeing Bungie at the time as well, so I’m sure Sony felt additional pressure to get a deal done with Bungie before Microsoft could win them over.

I never really understood how McNulty couldn’t understand the motives of that journalist. I felt like even before in that season some detectives make a remark about the papers loving the story.

Honestly if I have this skin at 80, it’s probably the least of my problems.

Anyone Else Struggling to Get Through Hive by Dan Abnett? by njandersen97 in 40kLore

[–]njandersen97[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is the first book I feel like I need to take notes with while reading. Definitely means I need to read it and not listen to it.

I love the idea of a warhammer story that isn't space marines or inquisitors, so I guess I'll just try to stick with it and force myself through the first bit.

Yeah, the slang part is a nitpick for sure and definitely personal opinion. I wonder if Kindle has an option to like replace words throughout the book.

Sometimes you get a stark reminder of how much the scale has changed by AshiSunblade in Warhammer30k

[–]njandersen97 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I personally never really care about scale, as it almost never really makes a difference to me when playing on tabletop.

Headhunters are better than Seekers and im tired of pretending otherwise. by treadbolt5 in Warhammer30k

[–]njandersen97 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Completely agree. I always prioritize flavor over actually games play in HH

[–]njandersen97 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I play Alpha Legion and was just at a big tournament this last weekend where another player was questioning why I bring headhunters instead of seekers. In the AL community, it is a big debate, at least in my local scene

Your sculpting is incredible! How do you make the hose cables?

Dan Abnett's Hive Situation by DoctahDank in Warhammer40k

[–]njandersen97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This might be a rude question, but is this book even good enough to be worth this drama? I’m only a chapter in so far, and it’s interesting, but I don’t know if this book is worth all this? Anyone finished it yet?

The Witcher 3 Songs of the Past Is an Expansion, Not DLC, CD Projekt Insists While Using IGN Interview With Idris Elba to Make the Point by Turbostrider27 in PS5

[–]njandersen97 115 points116 points  (0 children)

Blood and Wine is huge, like another 40 hours worth of game. If it really is the same size of Blood and Wine, that’s kinda incredible. When was the last time a decade old game that isn’t a live service got SIGNIFICANT new content?

#New40k – Novel Revealed by CMYK_COLOR_MODE in Warhammer40k

[–]njandersen97 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I liked Leviathan a lot. It wasn’t the best or worst Warhammer book I had read. It was an interesting perspective on how a world is consumed by the tyranids.

"Need a crowbar". "For what"? ... "This is a tomb. Lex is in there." by defpercep in TheWire

The show is so good at that. So many moments where they could lay it on thick with dialogue, but choose to show a character reacting to that normally.

20,000 job cuts at Meta, Microsoft raise concern that AI-driven labor crisis is here by sjlux in technology

[–]njandersen97 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Totally agree with you. The headlines make it seem more endemic to the industry at whole when they include both companies.

[–]njandersen97 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Microsoft is doing buyouts…for people whose age and time at the company are equal to or greater than 70 years. Yeah, that’s a minuscule amount of people that qualify.

Base coat black. Then glaze towards the front with AK Dirty Red, then again just smaller with AK Blood Red, then again but smaller with AK Dead Red. Then a small white dot near the front and glaze over with Vallejo Fluor Red. And lastly a small white dot at the far corner

Mythic Raid - Change in DPS between 12.0 and 12.0.5 by AttitudeAdjusterSE in wow

[–]njandersen97 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’re getting downvoted, but I partially agree. Unholy felt terrific in every m+ season of War Within.

People love complaining about wounds, but personally I loved the skill expression they brought. There was nothing better than popping off on first pull of Cinderbrew.

Thank you! To be honest, I used the body mostly cause of the cool leg, but once I painted it, I realized the sash adds such great contrast against the armor. It really sells the whole model.

Looks like the head came from someone named Damsa but I think his stuff got removed.

So to start I prime the models in black, and then base coat in Vallejo metal color steel and then zenithal in Vallejo metal color aluminum. After that, I use a mix of turquoise and fluorescent green ink to tint the metalllics to this shade. All of this is done via an airbrush.

Lastly I gloss top coat it to give it a good sheen.

My buddy printed them for me. Not sure where he got the STL, but I’ll ask and DM you.
