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

bruh what the fuck even is this

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

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

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

i am now on hugeminis

hopefully they are less shit than greenstuffworld

yes

good xD

hrmph they also carry green stuff

kinda don't wanna buy given my recent experience

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

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

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?"

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

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

@worthlessbums Hive Worlds like Necromunda practically cannibalize themselves to meet quotas for materiel to send up as part of their tithes, importing thousands of tonnes of ore, food, and recycled parts from other worlds on a daily basis and using every part of the carcass to make new stuff. To the point that near the bottom of the hives the standard food is mostly made out of corpse starch and the general trade is ripping out collapsed parts of the superstructure to repurpose into scrap that can be sold uphive.

Just because the entire IoM is at war doesn't mean everywhere is on the frontline; it just means the entire galaxy that humans control is given over to the military-industrial complex.
