>spent £100k on starting up a boutique 75mm display miniatures company
>used these funds to become mates to a bunch of top euro sculptors and professional painters

Do any of you have any other hyper-niche hobby related Lolcows?

Don't care. Go play games.

Okay.

>>98103118
Not OP but was curious enough to go looking from the description. He still appears to have plenty of money. I think he just has an addictive personality, honestly may also just be low IQ. His responses to comments on his videos are very weird.
>>

This. Plenty of wifes have left their gambling husband with unsucessful businesses.
The fact that he also collects miniatures really is just a minor side-issue.

And realistically, with 500k in bad gambling debt and 100k wasted on a failed company, 500 per month for warhammer really is not the problem here.

>>98102870
Who the fuck are you talking about, faggot? If you have to bring this shit to the board then at least include the names.
>>
>>98102870
The closest thing to lolcows this hobby has are...
>guy who got accussed of being an abusive rapist
>guy who got his entire career ended because he had an android player character experience a sensory program that felt "like an orgasm"
And this one is a stretch but
>shitty sketch comedian who admitted to not even playing D&D who has been making shitty D&D skits for years who decided to start pointless drama with some other youtubers making an actual play show, and ended his own career.

There’s plenty of /tg/ lolcows at the moment.
On /40kg/ there is an autist who keeps coming back to be abused.
No amount of bans can stop him from choosing to be an annoyance.
He is known for space wolves and decals used in excess.
Before him there was an autist called “The Iron Tard.”
/40kg/ had early threading wars.
Wip has a craft paints shilling sperg.

CWC used to be into dnd until being banned from a game store.
Before he would dress like Ash from Pokémon a decade earlier.

>>98102870
Paul Stanley might count,

>>98104856
Dont forget about Perryfag
>>
The sologame fag who has a yt channel about how not-pathetic sologaming is and how also he doesn’t need outside validation like the kind you seek by posting anything on youtube
>>
>>98104856
Tbh, craft paint guy isn't really "shilling" because he's not promoting a specific brand at all.
What he is doing is the diametric opposite of shilling.

Also, that Genestealer skin test he did on the Ork actually did have a fair depth of colour, and wasn't too thick.
>>
>>98104856
Noldorfag is still going strong after all these years.
/edhg/ is currently enjoying throoding thanks to some fag who insists on spamming any thread doesn't include a link to furry porn.
And then there's "fishfag" of OSR fame who spams threads because they don't include 2e under the banner of OSR and calls anyone who disagrees with him "BrOSR" while seething about ACKS.
>>
>>98104856
>Used to dress as Ash.
Kek. If he's from New Zealand I definitely know the guy.
>>
>>98105252
>Noldorfag is still going strong after all these years.
There's a guy that posts on r/ArmoredWomen. Every single post is an elf. He always gets banned eventually and then makes a new account. He also spams braindead pro-Feanor takes in lotr subreddits. He is also active in several different 40k elf art subs.
Do you reckon it's the same fella?
>>
>>98105262
CWC is Chris Chan from USA.
He dressed as ash and would power game Pokémon and sometimes get really angry.
Then he drew a hybrid pikachu and sonic the hedgehog or posted the comics online and bad history began.

Sometimes I’m glad there is no archive of /th/ lolcows.
I’d probably get suckered into the stories and turn into a useless fountain of even more useless information.
>>
>>98104856
>CWC used to be into dnd until being banned from a game store.
No he only did a sonichu character sheet once when 5e was at the height of its popularity that had details that made no sense to anybody who actually understood the game like movement speed per breath he was a yugioh and Pokemon tcgfag at his local gaming store before the ban you mentioned
>>
>>98102870
fixating on lolcows is bad for the soul. you should develop your hobbies instead
>>
>>98108558
Well one of us is misremembering chris Chan lore.
Probably me most likely.
I’m still curious as to how things would go if he discovered and got into 40k.
>>
>>98102870
This is what happens when you don't paint your minis

One-Shot Questers, I think his name is? Happened a couple months ago. Bunch of martial arts-ish youtubers opened a crowdfund to do a D&D show, got 100k, and then filmed the first season in one week. Skit Comedian guy, who had been floundering for a while decided to start drama and did this hour+ livestream where he made a bunch of retarded accusations that the producers were stealing money or that they bought the wrong equipment and that they broke promises, none of which was true and also most of his cost complaints amounted to a couple hundred bucks that could have been saved by buying worse equipment.

Then he started screaming and crying on camera about how he's so sick of the D&D community getting taken advantage of by scammers and being hurt by dishonest people. No one has any idea what the fuck he's talking about. Then he made some vague threats about how he's tired of "being scared" and that he has dirt on other people, which he never shared.

A couple days later, he removed big chunks of the livestream vod, changed the title of the video, changed the thumbnail, changed the title again to "." and then submitted a fucking job application to the youtubers he accused, telling them they should scrap everything they've already recorded, put it behind a patreon paywall, hire him with the leftover money they were saving for the next seasons they always planned to record with the leftover money, and have him direct and produce their entire show.

That guy who made fun of sellsword arts? Forgot his name, getting btfo'd for trying to attack them is all I think he's really known for.

The real lolcows are the pokemon scalpers.
There’s got to be more than just money to why they fight in stores or go far to robbery and possibly even murder.
Is the global economy that bad?
>>
>>98109919
There is another detail that was revealed after he started drama with, of all channels, a TTRPG drama channel. Along with proving that the guy is a fucking retard and a liar who can't do basic math, he also exposed the guy as not even being a D&D player. The guy may have never played D&D ever. He was trying to boost his comedy career and his wife gave him the idea to do D&D skits like all those other popular channels that were getting good numbers.

Also it seems like 90% of his subs were fucking bots also lmao
