If you're using plastic glue (which melts/welds plastic together), you need bare plastic for it to work right.

Cyanoacrylate glue (superglue) doesn't need bare plastic, but there's always the risk of the paint coming off at the connection, breaking the join.

If you are using non-contrast paints, I find it easiest to not fully assemble the minis before painting. Paint the arms and shoulders separate so that it is easier to hit all that "chaos trim".

Make sure to leave your glue points unpainted. I use poster tac to cover those (and it makes a good handle when you stick in a toothpick).

Hit the whole model with the gold, then use contrast paints (I use Talassar Blue) over the areas to be blue. Be careful to not paint over the trim, but it can wipe off with a moist cotton swab.

Cops and work trucks. Both drive around constantly and eat lunch on the road. My family uses this trick when travelling in the US, it has not let us down.

People were in an uproar over "indoctrination" by the game. If your child can be convinced to join the army by playing that game... maybe it's for the best.

Love the look of these. Pale blue was a great choice for the eyes.

Fun game. Love the writing.

I have a multilevel farm (each level has 8 domes, filled with enough plants to make 5 stasis devices). I also have three gas & mineral farms for each of the required non-biological pieces.

Sure, 20min is a touch of hyperbole, as there are some steps to get the carbon ready, harvest everything, etc. Once I have it all in my inventory, I can generate roughly 10 at a time. By the time I'm done, it's about 20min. I then take some time to sell across a few systems.

 
 

After unlocking all (current) weapons and strats, sometimes it's just fun to kill bugs with Eruptor\Stalwart.

 

Doctor Patches, however, does not like sharing the sill.

 

Oversized calico for scale.

 

What a difference a month makes.

 

 

Cataphractii with aftermarket shields, helmets, hammers, and badging.

 

Started two days in advance. I am baffled by how many pots & pans the French must have in their homes.

 

Army painter chain mail primer, then a whole host of contrast paints, Nuln Oil, and a white paint.

Magnetized at the waist and for the top weapon.

All my others have magnetized arms, but these were from an old box that only made Warglaives.

Spouse requested a Yul ornament.

Turns out, it was a typo.

 

I truly admire Ruby's restraint here.
