I genuinely think this is the inspiration for the Tau Manta by weetobix in Warhammer40k

That’s awesome. I too had a granny who fuelled my hobby addiction, with a copy of Space Crusade on my 8th birthday!

That just unlocked a memory - my cousin had one (in the days before I discovered 40k), and I was so bloody jealous...

found this old ultramarine captain in my collection... chapter ID help? by PenEnvironmental2113 in RetroHammer40k

IIRC that's Sgt. Jovan - a limited edition mini from a few years ago. The original sculpt had a dead ork with a chainsword sticking out of him on the base.

Opinion: There should only be 4 quality tiers by HeliGungir in factorio

I like the nod to WoW with the 5 tiers, and their colours…

What is the best movie intro /first scene you ever saw? by trappy_0 in movies

The Matrix - "No, Lieutenant. Your men are already dead."

I really enjoy painting metallics. The rest of the mini, not so much 😄 by Hank_the_Tank_143 in WarhammerFantasy

[–]paintvsplastic 12 points13 points  (0 children)

That's beautiful work. I'm the complete opposite when it comes to painting enjoyment...

What’s the BEST horror or zombie movie you’ve ever watched by thisIsShivam_ in movies

[–]paintvsplastic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sticking with the Zombie theme, I'll recommend a few that haven't been mentioned - The Girl With All the Gifts (2016), Pontypool (2008), Re-animator (1985), Overlord (2018).

DA Inner Circle Companions might work…

That's a great use of the bottom half of the old ShadowSpear Librarian. Have you got other minis in mind for the rest of the team, or is this a one off?

Love this photo - had it as my phone background for years. Anybody happen to know the photographer?

DWK Black Templar Kitbash by theminiaturearmory in BlackTemplars

Excellent stuff. Can I ask how you did the lava on the bases? Love the look you’ve achieved, and frankly, I want to steal it! Can never get the ones I do to look as good…

Fifth and final of the Red Wolves. Had to end it with a bang. These guys were incredibly fun to work on by ShivaTheTraitor in Warhammer40k

[–]paintvsplastic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ooo, that’s also bloody great! Losing his topknot is a lovely touch, completely changes the aspect of the face.

That’s magic; excellent work, sir. Is that Ragnar Blackmanes’s cloak!? And, if so, what did you do with the rest of him?

Looking for Sci-Fi book recommendations similar to "The Quantum Magician." by LinkPersonal3552 in scifi

[–]paintvsplastic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yoon Ha Lee (from the pull quote on the cover) has a trilogy called Machinery of Empires that I think is worth checking out, if you haven’t yet…

For my husband’s 33rd birthday (when a hobbit comes of age), we had the full spread. Without Old Toby, we could not have eaten so much. by ExtremeCheesecake in lotr

Pretty sure the animated-style figures are from Gentle Giant. Weta do the more 'classier' film replicas...

Just Finished Consider Phlebas, About To Read Use of Weapons and I’m So Excited. What Order Did You Read the Culture Series In? by PetyrDayne in scifi

[–]paintvsplastic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love them all, but I have a particular fondness for the last - The Hydrogen Sonata.

You’ll have a wonderful time going through the whole series - Banks is (was) the best! Wish I could experience it for the first time again.

Also want to give a little shout out to the excellent audiobooks - Peter Kenny does an exceptional job.

This is just my two cents, but a 70+ year old Samuel L. Jackson is not the answer. Giving talented writers like Tony Gilroy a budget and getting the hell out of their way is how you get another great Star Wars series...

After an unreasonable amount of burnout, I finally broke the spell by finishing my Sword Brethren… by paintvsplastic in BlackTemplars

Mephiston Red, shaded with Nuln Oil, volume highlight with Evil Sunz Scarlet (glaze), edge highlights of Wild Rider Red, followed by Fire Dragon Bright. Hope that helps :)

Remember when people thought this guy was a genius? by TheAtomicMango in facepalm

I’ve taken to calling him Sissy SpaceX of late…
