That is fantastic work!
Very nice work.
It's really hard to find female heads for conversions. I wonder if I can get these in the US.
Fantastic work!
Fantastic conversions and painting.
I don't know where in NoVa you live, but Drop Zone in Bowie MD, and Dream Wizards in Frederick MD have pretty active gaming groups for a variety of GW games. FTW in Richmond, of course, is an...
At least there are several companies making alternate heads and such. As long as we can by bitz, there won't be a problem in customizing your IG. Oh, wait...
I have more than a few dwarves, but since I left WFB about 10 years ago, I never really got around to playing or even painting many of them. If the rules are good, I might just get back in to the...
Infantry battles throughout history demonstrate what GW could do for both armies and battlefields. IMO, terrain effects are not really portrayed well in 40K, maybe because it's easier to get stuck in...
That came in the 2nd Edition 40K box. The metal Ork Dread model wasn't released until several months later.
Patience and practice will get you where you want to go. I suggest you use an old mini with some detail on it to try things out on before you go to paint one you'll put in your army. Just so you...
I agree. I am a miniature collector/painter with a gaming problem, so being able to play some games with less minimum buy-in would be nice. I remember about a decade ago how much fun the "Warhammer...
I come not to praise 40K2, but to bury any notion that it was the game tourney players would want to see again.
IMO, second edition (40K2) had some great points: the fluff was wide open, you could...
Fantastic work! I really loved Necromunda, I wish more people played it.
Don't forget about the "fair use" precedents that have been made for MP3's etc, most of which draws on the arguments made during the cassette/VCR periods of technology. You can make a copy of an MP3...
in 1989, I was on leave, and in a bar in Brooklyn, I met a girl from Scotland. Learning that I was heading back to my duty station in Germany, she tore the label off a beer bottle and wrote here...
THe poll needs an "It Depends" option.
If Scratchbuilding is usually defined as taking raw material, plastic card as an a example, and cutting or shaping it to make a part, shoulder pad, helmet,...
I've used undiluted Simple Green on metal and paint. I leave plastic in Simple Green for 6-8 hours, the paint practically sloughs off in one clump, then I use an old toothbrsuh to get in cracks as...
Wow, fantastic painting, great use of colors.
Tom makes some very good points. Consider taking a current map, and think how it might represent a hive.
The hives are somewhat sci-fi speculation but also drawn from the industrial cities we...
Very tough, but the Carnifex was the one that caught my attention at first glance.
That's unusual. Try using an old tooth brush to clean off some of that white stuff, it could be hard water from cleaning your brushes dries in the corners and leaves a white mineral residue.
The Tau idea sounds like the quickest fix, especially if you have bitz available.
You could also consider cutting down SM shoulder pads; use the center section for shoulders, knees, elbows. Even...
Several of the Gaunts Ghosts novels have overhead maps in them, you can get an idea of the overall layout of a hive city and its surroundings, and then choose how to model it.
I remember the...
Hello to you all! I'm tankbusta, aka Rob. I used to hang out on the gone but not forgotten Millennium Gate Forum.
I've been playing GW games since 1990 when I bought the first edition of Space...
