If I'm not listening to music or I do sometimes play the old "Carl's Stone Cold Lock of the Century of the Week" playlist because even if those brackets are long gone the jokes are timeless
Alternately when the season is on I'll put NBA on

So are any of the Battleforces good?
>>
>>96735944
Vhordrai is pretty sick and definitely the one I want most.
Troggoths are like 1000 points in a box so its amazing value.
Sylvaneth are great if you missed out on 2022 box since its pretty much the same
EC box is honestly not bad if you dont have fulgrim. Its basically the same as Angron's exalted of red angels and Magnus' court of crimson king. The only reason people arent as hyped for this one is Fulgrim kinda sucks ingame and most people that wanted him already got one.

Overall the battleforces this year are kinda meh, AoS the big winner for sure.

I remember it used to be IW, then WE before they got their own "Army" release a few years back.

Then it was NL for a bit, then recently Deldar, and it seems CF are making a comeback.

stop eating before bed, try to limit your meals in a 6 to 8 hour window. turn off your screens 30 min before bed. read a book or something.

>>96735944
>krieg
one looks good for the sheer amount of plastic, but I hear the points are pitiful.

>marines
looks good. staple marine units. 2 dreads plus a captain and Lt.

>EC
good for somebody starting out

>csm
the venomcrawler/oblit sprue seems shoehorned in. the character is also notoriously hard to build.

>tau
idk but people will buy it for the "ebin badass superior katana!!"

i am trying to intergrate my airbrush more into my hobbying and not just for priming or basecoating and varnishing.

Pic rel was my last word bearer and I'm working on the rest of the squad. I want to use my airbrush to basecoat and highlight all of the red parts. I will see if it's faster than spraying it all metallic and hand painting the red parts. Pic rel is my usual method and I like how the shade adds contrast and definition.

Does anyone paint infantry like this? Do you just up the brightness of the paint and spray from a higher angle as you build highlights?

looking at the "good" christmas boxes in the past, I think they usually fall into a couple categories
>rare, constantly OOS characters or chase models for people who already own a lot of the faction (harbinger of decay in last year's AOS nurgle box)
>strong, versatile, and/or spammable dudes that are always good to have (veterans of the long war box)
>a big chunk of points that nab people considering starting a new faction, usually include a named character that is crucial to the army's functionality (exalted of the red angel)

>bolt pistol and chainsword not a base sarge weapon
>gotta buy the melee upgrade pack
>Want a squad of 20 despoilers with basic chainsword/bolt pistols? Gotta buy two upgrades and end up with all that shit

You know what grinds my gears? How GW treats upgrade kits: they put all that stuff in there for 2 main reasons:
1) To make you buy other kits to use the options you had to buy
2) So they only have to make 1 kit and call it a day

You know what REALLY grinds my gears? How new marines, both in 40k in HH, have shitty powerpack connection systems: HH has a pill shape, 40k has a square shape, BUT both have the connection reversed for the jumppacks.

You know what FUCKING GETS ME??
That despite GW doing the same 5 poses for all their HH marines, they are CUT DIFFERENTLY, meaning that you can't easily swap parts around: I have to BUILD THE FUCKING MARINE before CUTTING HIM

Most people don't give a fuck because they're consumers rather than customers, but that doesn't stop me from screaming and making it everyone's problem.

I think they do it so they can still call it a conversion kit and not a full model so GW won't give them shit. I bought one of their Rhino kits and it only used a couple bits from the original kit as well.

has anyone used the john blance paint set volume 2 from AP? I have the first edition set and it's really great. I like all the colors (the contrast paint is mostly for glazing or tinting) but it lacks a good orange or red and blue. It was fun limiting myself to those 8 paints while maintaining coherency. So I want to see if it's worth spending the $48 for the volume 2.

In all seriousness ive never used them before. I've seen ork players field them and they just die to a sniff breeze. Do you run them all with rokkits?

So what's the problem with the arms being switched?

>>96735826
I don't think anything feels better in the hobby than when something just clicks and suddenly a project you were somewhat wary of is flying by. It looks like you've improved on just about every part of your scheme. Good shit

>>96736099
What if you wanted to give a HH pistol on a 40k marine, or vice-versa?
