Worthless Bums
alright my goal was to actually crack through these issues and hit warhammer lore fast and the alt text is slowing me down so... seeya later
in issue #87 of white dwarf (before rogue trader released), they ran an interview with the design team (for warhammer fantasy roleplay)
it's a medieval fantasy game. white dwarf even published a little adventure to play with it, and it's just a straight fantasy game
---
fast forward to white dwarf issue 93, and the front cover is warhammer 40,000 rogue trader: full sci-fi space marines blasting everything lol
and the space dwarves? THOSE FUCKERS ARE STILL MEDIEVAL IN QUILT ARMOR AND SHIT
those poor bastards got like no sci-fi reboot till recently
no wonder the tyranids ate them
reboot space dwarves don't seem to be raging assholes tho so i feel like gw gonna spring a fast one in the future lol
turn them into every other shit faction
they're just space dwarves with functioning stcs that wanna mine shit?
stop worshipping tech as gods tho you weirdos
at first i was like oh finally a faction that can make shit
and then it turns out they just have stcs
perfect video i can potentially dig for material to annoy @DarkestKale with xD
what if i make a little quilt tabard and pin it on them
honestly the actual squat minis back then were... not suuuuuuper far from the reboot either
every time i see palatine i think palpatine
today is "how does ork/sob belief warp reality" day
hear me out, what if i drink while painting
i'm afraid i'll accidentally drink paint water tho xD
oh the come pre-painted too? damn
good price
they have a wendigo but it does not look like a fo76 wendigo
it's part of a different series, not sure what for
someone stop me i'm going to end up spending more money on terrain and buildings than minis
i feel like the building setpieces would facilitate mini play more than the big vault interior(s)
the astro mart seems to do both fairly well tho 🤔
i feel like i should try and build some of this myself first
that way when i fail i'll think "ninety bucks for that is a fucking steal"
alright imma paint those 3 settlers
prolly not the zetan till i get that white paint
I knocked out the two women super fast but this half naked dude is giving me a lot of trouble lol
I might try a wash again
Maybe fail less this time
I do not understand washing. trying brush highlighting to salvage but I think I literally need to redo like half the work
-2/10
Dieeeeeeeerr
Alright I'm ready to wrap these up because that wash was super demoralizing
alright you know what i'm just done for today lol
i'll fix this pile of shit tomorrow xD
i've been mixing my black ink with water ~50/50 (today was a little stronger because last time it fucking dried gray instead of black/darker???)
it is not working. might be the ink. might be the water. i understand some people use oils, and stores sell actual washes so you don't have to mix them yourself
i don't know what i'm doing wrong. obviously i am doing something wrong
Keith Evans@worthlessbums ah. Okay. Its awesome you're mixing your own washes but I would advise parking washing as a technique and picking up a very small selection of premixed ones from a game company. Particularly I think the difficulty you've got is using a black ink when you might want to use a brown or sepia.
You've probably already seen the memes about Citadels own Nuln Oil wash, which is their generic Sepia wash that tends to go with everything. I like using Army Painter Soft Tone for the same kind of effect.
@worthlessbums (wait no. Nuln is their black wash. Agrax Earthshade is their brown)
@kaynSD i'll have to check it out because washes infuriate me xD
