... there are glow in the dark crystals

there are glowing bottles and shit

guys

help

HELP

set of 72 misc objects for like eight bucks

me: "oh i can use like 2 of those"

alright i am going to assert some self control now

i will

OKAY NO MORE ADDING TO THE CART

NUMBERS ONLY GO DOWN NOW

I MEAN IT

100 skulls is so many skulls

but

a third of these pumpkins are Way Too Large

might pass on the set entirely

would i pay 74 cents for one small pumpkin, to place somewhere

... maybe lol

i guess i could use the larger ones in a diorama instead of on a mini base
it is unfortunate that green stuff world abbreviates to gsw
i am below $200 congratulate me

do i really need bright colorful flowers

no

no

... but i want them lol

alright i trimmed it down to everything i know for sure i want to use

just down to quantity now lololol

fuck $29 shipping the preview lied to me lololol
are these guys in the uk? fuck lollolollllllll

BEFORE I TRIED TO CHECK OUT THEY WERE LIKE $6 SHIPPING

NOW I WANNA GO BACK AND ORDER MORE TO MAKE SHIPPING MORE EFFICIENT

you know what they ain't shipping till monday lol

gonna sleep on this

no washington state tax tho... that does change the calculus
i tried changing the amount of the bulky foam item to see if that affected the shipping nope

tuft and flock is... not cheap

their prices are pretty good relatively speaking

not sure about quality tho since i've never used any of this stuff

there is also the allure of having everything arrive in one package, because babysitting my front door can be very easy or take up my entire day waiting for delivery

so having my order split over X days will waste so much of my goddamn time

ooOoOooo their registered mail option seems to indicate final delivery is usps?

usps is way better for me than ups or fedex

that might have swayed me lol

15-30 working days

bruh that is so long lol

this is a horrible checkout process holy shit

bruh what the fuck even is this

uses some payment intermediary that defaults to euros and also charges a 2% transaction fee

LOL WHAT

i tried to go back to switch payment currency to euros

it errored out and my entire cart is empty on the website

... what the flying fuck man looooooooooooooololol

apparently green stuff world is based in spain and their entire payment process is absolutely donkey nuts

HOLY SHIT THE ORDER WENT THROUGH ON MY CREDIT CARD

WHAT THE FUCK

so somehow it errored out, completed my order, and i ended up paying an extra $27

this is extraordinarily not fucking cool

their fucking bullshit contact form is not letting me send a message, asking me to perform a recaptcha that does not fucking exist
LOL LMAO
email it is
well this was a rollercoaster two hours

i am now on hugeminis

hopefully they are less shit than greenstuffworld

yes

good xD

ooOoOoo they have mixes of grass and grit and stuff
it looks like pork floss xD

hrmph they also carry green stuff

kinda don't wanna buy given my recent experience

hrm their flock is made out of foam and is very... floofy xD

got a smattering of tufts and flowers and stuff for terrain decoration

no tax or shipping either. hopefully i can get usps shipping xD

reading 40k lore really be like "the emperor was not emotionally attached to the primarchs but also he got mortally wounded by a primarch because he refused to use the full might of his psychic powers against his beloved son"
Oh my paints did come today xD

the big bottle is glaze medium so i can try that

i mean washes fucked me up but might as well keep trying other techniques xD

also got a white primer and a few other varnishes to see if i like those

there's nothing WRONG with the vallejo ultra matt... i don't think

but maybe these will alter the final look more significantly

also doubled up on a few colors i really liked, like their bloody red

got some purple, another green, and a fancy ass REFRACTIVE green

This pleases me

the length of these cardboard boxes that can hold magic cards is gonna differ probably, but the width is basically perfect for 4 row

just sayin' if you indulged in too much cardboard crack like i used to

every 40k space marine vs argument in

/r/whowouldwin: "space marines stomp respect the humble space marine read your lore you fukken nerd in this ted talk i will..."

/r/40klore: "is the space marine named? is he wearing his helmet?"

40k numbers strike again

i tried to reconcile the populations on hive worlds and crusade casualties and stuff the other day

that was a mistake

they're arguing if codexes are lore

i dunno man. if that doesn't count as lore what does

"they changed the lore later" is valid

"i don't feel like the swarmlord is that powerful" is like, not really that valid

take it up with gw xD

i think one of the funniest things about 40k is the homogeneity. especially since it's sci-fi

a counterinsurgency in real life modern terms only needs like two dozen insurgents per 1000 populace

in 40k population scale and modern tech (everyone running around with lasguns) that ratio is prolly way lower

even the cults don't operate right, they're described as infesting whole planets/ships

bruh that place is fucked way before infestation levels

pour one out for the poor guardsmen who get rat fucked in everything i've ever read because they are led by the most braindead "supersoldier" motherfuckers you ever did see

i really REALLY don't like the guardsmen minis because of their uhhh

stylistic inspiration source

for the most part. some of them look like normal ww2 soldiers or whatever

these poor bastards tho

gonna get wrecked by abaddon or something

how are they replacing all their lost materiel anyway with the iom having such shit manufacturing capabilities
@worthlessbums space marines are literally the weakest thing the Emperor had a hand in making, and he only made them because his other super soldier programs were so prohibitively expensive or unstable.
@kaynSD
primarchs - fuck
space marines - ehhhh
custodes - well...
@worthlessbums Thunder Warriors - Aaaaaagggh!

@kaynSD appreciate the straight faced-ness of that reply lololol

lore doesn't count if it's in the codex is new to me

@worthlessbums Yeah, but it's not in MY codex so *I* say it's false~~
@worthlessbums to be fair, it's the Blood Angels. They get practically wiped out every hundred years or so. :p
@worthlessbums *waits for Bums to read about the Sensei*
