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

there is a weird contingent of 40kers who insist you must paint your minis to play (casually)

lol lmao

it would not surprise me if the majority of people who are in 40k at all are just hobbyists and don't play

just read lore and paint and shit

alright i'm gonna go now

now i just wanna get real good at painting minis

like fucking S-tier level shit. just a massive collection of fallout warfare minis beautifully painted

and then show up at my lgs with a totally unpainted 40k kill team like sup bitches

@worthlessbums bring a can of spray paint and just lightly dust them all at once if anyone complains. There, they're painted
@worthlessbums also legit, my like third or fourth place reason that I've never gotten into 40k is that I have no skill or desire to have skill at painting tiny things
