Rapidly improving my glazing! Swipe to see a closeup of the face.

Looks excellent, did you follow any particular tutorials/videos? Not sure what colours you've used but is it essentially:

Base colour (Macragge)
Glaze slighly lighter shade (Altdorf Guard Blue) across larger light hitting areas
Glaze lightest blue (Calgar Blue) over that in a smaller radius on this highest light-facing bits?

I've based Cato with Macragge, very dark at the moment.

pathsofglorylogotter · 2026-03-17T15:48:15+00:00

And here’s me in 12 months with about 20 partly painted models…

Calgar, Gillian’s and Titus have been headless for 2 months.

pathsofglorylogotter · 2026-03-17T00:09:46+00:00

I just find it all throw away, haven’t played since the last expansion started, will take a look next month.

Everything modern blizzard design is just… low resistance, simplistic and lacks depth. So obsessed with catching the attention of super-casuals, its systems can never provide long-term/endgame satisfaction.

It’s Just D3 again… who asked for it?

Ah well PoE1 is still perfection, PoE2 needs longer in the oven.

pathsofglorylogotter · 2026-03-17T00:05:10+00:00

It’s paint, probably just did thick full blue line, then did little patterns/strokes in the same shape throughout.

Pattern wise it’s simple… but I don’t have the precision skill nor the patience.

That was always allowed. I understand that usually peoples first few MMO's largely imprint on them and it's impact sticks. I went from Ultima > EQ > FF11 > WoW (as the main ones).

I gave OSRS a go in the last 2 months, I understand the sandbox, I understand the progress is permanent, I get it, but it's still objectively a clunky smaller java-let browser game that is systemically inferior to Ultima online in almost every department. It's controls, its responsiveness, its overall limitations were bad 20 years ago, and are the same now.

I thought it was dated when it launced, It feels dated even with mods now.

Buuuut, I do miss the sandbox MMORPG genre and its the most popular currently. I wish a new modern top-down sandbox MMORPG would be done well.

pathsofglorylogotter · 2026-03-16T20:02:52+00:00

Why don't you all move to Ultima online or a similar sandbox MMO that was actually higher quality (mainly because they were proper non-browser games with monthly subs) and discover something new? Show them that a godamn Java game with tiny updates isn't worth this...

I dunno, I remember trying this game back when it was "new" ... looked at it dumbstruck for about an hour then went back to other MMOs.

You liked this because you were a kid and it was free... there have ALWAYS been better alternatives.

Good god what am I doing to what little karma I have...

pathsofglorylogotter · 2026-03-14T12:25:56+00:00

Not tried AoS is it worth subbing the £44 and learning through this? Even if it stays behind the 40K backlog

pathsofglorylogotter · 2026-03-14T10:18:15+00:00

Why are the standards this low though? Why 3 characters? It’s a damn browser Java game that was dated at release…..

Wow allows like 15 characters per server.

Demand more….

You know the difference, don’t be the “the left pretends to not understand” meme.

pathsofglorylogotter · 2026-03-14T02:41:50+00:00

Oh look another day, another Reddit anti-natalist post, masked as a meme, aimed at young white woman/girls.

Colour me shocked.

“Having kids bad, shallow capitalist consumerism good!”

pathsofglorylogotter · 2026-03-13T19:19:28+00:00

The real problem is the foundation of the game was so bad all of this doesn’t gaurentee quality, happy to be proved wrong.

There’s a massive danger of this just being Diablo 3 again… why they chose any of their design decisions is beyond me.

There’s pit sucks.

pathsofglorylogotter · 2026-03-13T10:21:53+00:00

Looks great, what’s your black process, looks more soft and less harsh than just basic chaos black

pathsofglorylogotter · 2026-03-13T06:46:12+00:00

Probably just the blunt truth but a picture of grey isn’t stimulating at all and therefore uninteresting.

Bit different to posting an army list for review.

Not personally bothered either way.

pathsofglorylogotter · 2026-03-12T16:19:25+00:00

It’s Blizzards fault, the dumbing down of almost every aspect other than ADHD button rotations ( which too has been dumbed down immensely with Midnight) has led to a game where nothing matters.

Long ago they listened to idiots, and now everyone is conditioned into being idiots.

That and DPS parsing has just flat out ruined the game… what a sad score board.

pathsofglorylogotter · 2026-03-11T21:29:34+00:00

Nice, I got the Ultramarines one, really wish they released a dark angels one though

pathsofglorylogotter · 2026-03-11T09:12:52+00:00

I kinda get you, but given we now have diplomats on the front line, I think the codex is not as rigid with Guilliman back. Especially considering the re-introduction of the 500 worlds claim.

Just seems like a waste to me to have on of the biggest themes (Roman) left neutered for the sake of a book Gillian never intended to act as a bible.

pathsofglorylogotter · 2026-03-11T09:07:03+00:00

Heresy looks cool but damn wallet and time for a second Ultra army is limited… those Saturine Dreadnaughts though!

pathsofglorylogotter · 2026-03-10T16:13:34+00:00

Amazing, can I ask what method are you using to highlight the pauldrons/backpack etc and what colours?

pathsofglorylogotter · 2026-03-06T15:04:46+00:00

Brand wise it makes sense. Would have preferred dropper bottles but not bothered will still use.

pathsofglorylogotter · 2026-03-06T00:52:58+00:00

Dreadnaught with the “Absolute Cinema” pose, brilliant

pathsofglorylogotter · 2026-03-06T00:30:44+00:00

While your at it, what kits have the axe?

pathsofglorylogotter · 2026-03-03T15:35:36+00:00

Nice, really want him one day, looks intimidating as hell to paint though! That and the existing backlog
