Too big.
Most of my collecting of miniatures/bits was for a hypothetical time when I would be in a happier situation.
A situation that never came.
I did enjoy painting what little I did.

The best thing that came out of the primaris vs. firstborn stuff for guard players at least was pointing out the marine height autism whenever marinefags pointed out any guard autism.

Give GSC more actual alien units.

A lot. It's mainly huge discount boxes so I justify it in my mind as soon or later GW is going to price me out of the hobby, and at that point I will still have enough stuff to last for a bunch of time, and being huge boxes I can always resell them at a minimum loss or in some cases at value.

Are Imperial Guard proxies really the "safest" proxies one can make in avoiding the legal wrath of GW's lawyers?

The members get first dibs on rare shit or forge world stuff because he had an issue with scalpers but it's literally £1 a month to be in the group so I dont know how that keeps any scalpers out. Everything else is either up on his facebook for sale or at the shop on a saturday.
Because of some weird rules he's not allowed to be a primary seller of second hand GW stuff and also sell new GW products so he has "completely separate business" that also happens to use the same building that sells those.
Gave me a laugh
>>
>>97870076
I found a base model and added some modifications. You don't need to be a wizard at blender to add conversions.

You can find an absolute metric ton of guard out there, as for avoiding GW lawyers, that's only a issue if you plan on selling, or you are showing up with a full army printed to a GW store. I've played with my converted models often and had no issue.
>>
>>97870102
>I found a base model and added some modifications.
Baby steps man and soon you'll be making great proxies and maybe making some chump change selling the STLs.
Hopefully you icarus your way into getting the GW hammer thrown at you so you can BTFO GW in the courtroom like ChapterHouse did and then come out victorious and thrive unlike ChapterHouse did on the thrive part.

>You don't need to be a wizard at blender to add conversions.
I mean that might be true to the average person but spending a lot of hours trying to properly angle a chainsword "blade" to the hilt where a regular sword blade was on a dynamically posed miniature STL made me feel really stupid. Always felt the angle was off until I think I got it right.

Blender may be awful compared to the paid for options but it not only punches above it's price point of being free but is probably very underestimated.

Which is why I keep reinstalling it for the intent modifying guard proxy STLs.

Base the shoulders, face, upper torso, and limb "casings" a nonmetallic color, and paint the spine, pelvis, joints, and the "uncased" parts of the arms and legs a metallic color. Picrel is two paint schemes I was trying out before deciding on the one I'm currently painting (which is just the one on the right but with dark gold metallic details)

I've been watching stuff on youtube about the UK. Everything outside of the big cities seems much more interesting, scenic, and distinctly British. It would be nice to see Scotland, have some local milk and pies and then pet some sheep. Maybe get a nice wool blanket and some sweaters in case I fuck one of them up. A cap too idk.

Also can't stand the london accent, it's worse than atlanta or baltimore. I'm not trying to get stabbed by some 20 year old in a puffer jacket either.

I'm not the biggest nuGW fan, but even for me it's a good way to spend an afternoon, the exhibition is good.

Depends on your situation, do you live 3 hours away, or are you in the UK for a holiday? That sort of thing. I mean there's plenty of GW geek types that *do* use a whole day of their holiday getting the train to Nottingham and back who seem to enjoy the pilgrimage.
>>
>>97870308
Sure. How does that relate to a wargame having OPTIONAL terrain layouts to use in tournaments? This shit has always existes. Back then circuits just made their own packs with missions and layouts. Now they still do and GW offers their own on top. I fail to see how this is a bad thing.

I'm thinking of painting an Imperial fist for fun with black trim instead of red.

Does anyone per chance paint IF? I know they aren't popular but I like the look of yellow on black. Most guides tell you to use a pink undercoat or the IF yellow contrast paint but pic rel has a really neat ochre undertone.

For painting the pants on marine scouts would a warm earthy brown (think steel legion drab), olive drab green, khaki, or grey-blue work best?

>>
>>97870371
That's not even what they mentioned in the video. They explicitely talked about weapons. Sounded like they were still gonna force every unit to take upgrades but at least those upgrades would cost different. So a SoB squad would have a flamer and heavy bolter as a base and could oay extra points to upgrade them to meltas. But no option to just have cheap bolters.

Because the current 40k playerbase is the battered wife of competitive players, so once GW release anything for optional use in tournaments you can bet your ass that 99% of the games around are going to use that. The only way to avoid it is to have a very close group of friends without waacfags, but a lot of people are not lucky enough to have that.
