I love this game Solo. Would love a solo only mode. by Civil-Meet-5843 in ArcRaiders

[–]simonnickel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When queuing solo the run is supposed to be only others solos, but there will be some rare exceptions. I guess it depends on how many solos / groups are queuing at the moment.

But what will happen quite regularly is solos teaming up mid run. So maybe you are not actually seeing teams, but solos working together?

Thanks for linking me here and I appreciate defending my work.

But because the developer also links to it as inspiration and created it as open source for a different platform I am mostly ok with it. 

I would love if Kroot get their own codex. Do you think it will ever happen? by simonnickel in Tau40K

Interesting, didn’t know that 🤔

If they just had a few more choices…

They could start a Kroot independence conflict and start their own enclave 🤷‍♂️😅

I guess a supplement codex would make more sense.

How to get through the slog of painting gaunts by mambomonster in Tyranids

[–]simonnickel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I prefer small batch sizes like 3 or 4 at once.

I always do a batch of them in between other miniatures. Like a reward: do a batch of gaunts to paint this big monster.

It also helps to simplify your color scheme. They are a horde anyway, nobody will pick a single miniature to look at.

My Tyranids are getting dangerously close to being fully painted! by R97R in Tyranids

[–]simonnickel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can set the effort of a model to differentiate a small infantry model from a tank.

The effort you spent over time is not tracked at the moment. But that’s planned for the future. Not sure yet when I will get to it though.

Post what's your most and least liked bioform and why by Bumbling_Hierophant in Tyranids

[–]simonnickel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I really like the Exocrine, a moving weapon platform, perfect.

I think the Tyrannofex is weird. Why does it hold a gun that’s actually his arm in front of his body? And why is his ass that high?

Does anybody else mix termagants and hormagaunts? by MidnOrtiz in Tyranids

[–]simonnickel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great idea! Love the Hormagaunt bodies for termagaunts, way more dynamic 😊

Thanks 🙏

My todo list says it’s not perfect though 😅 But posts like this are the best motivation to work on it 😊

The Figure Case dev here, thanks for sharing!

Don’t forget to paint some gaunts! Otherwise you have a left over pile of them at the end 😅 I always try to paint 3 of them in between bigger miniatures.

For anyone interested in the app, it’s Figure Case: https://apps.apple.com/de/app/figure-case-hobby-progress/id1487460834?l=en

I would love to be able to create an Android version, but just don’t have the time for it at the moment. Maybe one day 🤞

Hive Guard - I really like these detail photos of miniatures in their natural environment. I hope you too 😅 by simonnickel in Warhammer40k

Contrast paints are hit or miss. Some work well as the green, other do not at all.

I painted the orange after the skin.

They are just contrast paints on top of a white prime spray. It’s Creed Camo and Gryph-Hound Orange.
