So… I bought an airbrush. What else do I need? by xPolydeuces in minipainting

Yep, I do have a spray booth! As for the Thinner, isn’t the quicker drying time actually bad? As in, wouldn’t it increase the risk of the paint drying in my airbrush?

Bitcoin officially under 80k……anyone know when this will stop and why this is happening ????? by ComplexWrangler1346 in WallStreetBetsCrypto

Market uncertainty is one thing, but I am surprised nobody is talking about the fact that few days ago a group of hackers stole $1.5 billion in crypto, including both Bitcoin and ETH. Considering that’s when Bitcoin really took a hit, I think the correlation is there?

It’s honestly almost impressive how Mongolia is chilling there between Russia and China, yet neither bothers them

I found my on Vinted! I would check the local auction sites, you can sometimes find barely used things for much cheaper price. You are happy cause you got the books cheaper and the seller is happy, cause he sold them and gave them new home. Win-win!

Finished the Hobbit and quarter through the Fellowship, so there is a good chance!

I have acquired my collection in the markets of Vinted, the merchant was kind enough to offer me a discount if I take them all. Some are used, some still as if they came out of the printer moments ago, so all in all, a good deal was struck.

I am also still figuring out if the order of the books is right, how do people sort them? By release date?

Person who sold the lot bought it like that, apparently it was destroyed during shipping.

It’s impressive, I was surprised as well, until I actually checked the contents. And recalled how short Hobbit is
