    How long do you usally wait for the clear coats to cure before doing work on them?

    Miniature Painting

    Do you use enamel washes for figure painting, I tried some on the first tiny model I brush painted and the enamel wash ate through the acryllic colors and removed them when I tried cleaning it off. I had no primer or clear coat though on it so maybe that is what messed it up, I see most use a...

    (2020) Assassin's Creed Valhalla

    Thought this was coming the 16th for some reason. But glad I got the AMD rewards mail today on how to claim the game for preload tomorrow. Edit: Great success, AMD rewards does not work so can't get my key. Sad times.

    Started the F-14 because the Jas 39 Gripen is at the clear coat stage and I think I will do that with the airbrush. Assembled the F-14 in preparation for painting and wtf is with Freedom aircrafts, they are freaking huge. Both planes 1/48 scale. :p

    Extended the computer desk to have a work space and started building the Jas 39 Gripen before I tackle the F-14. Mostly just painted the cockpit and glued together the aircraft. Hopefully the airbrush arrives monday so I can start practicing with that. I don't see me brush painting large...

    Might have been for the best that I did not score the 5900x, seems thats really not worth it for just gaming? Will keep an eye out for the 5600x I guess, any news on future stock?

    Miniature Painting

    Built together a set of airbrush stuff and compressor and it will probably arrive monday. I did not have much choice in Airbrush brand because everything is out of stock, settled ona Harder and Steenbeck Ultra 2 in 1 (0.2 and 0.4mm needle) for around $110. Might have been the impulse buy of the...

    Yea for a beginner it's probably a good price. Was looking at a compressor with a tank earlier and thats 100-200 dollars more and Airbrushes really go from 70 to 500 bucks. That package with a spraybooth should be around 500 bucks. Seeing as the AMD 5900x went out of stock forever I might as...

    Thanks! Will check and see if anyone carries those. Kinda slim pickings on the stuff in stock atm. I did find this in stock however, no idea how they perform though. Compressor Sparmax Aism AC-66HX, Airbrush Sparmax SP-35, hose, cleaning pot and Silver Bullet. The package sits around 300...

    Only cpu available still around here is the 5600x, the higher ones went out of stock faster than the 3080s.

    Miniature Painting

    Ahh I somehow got the idea that one with no tank gave bad pressure. Might have misunderstood and mixed them up. Kinda limited supply over here but will continue to look. Any brand/model airbrush thats recommended? Edit: The ones with no tank had "pulsing" issue, might have been what I mixed up...

    Looking through airbrush kits and compressors on a few sites. Not much in stock but want to get an idea what to aim for. What are the things I should look for in Airbrushes and the compressors? All the numbers mean nothing to me when I check the info. :p I guess a compressor with a tank is a...

    All sites crashed here, got one5900x through the payment but not sure if it will ship. Edit: Nope failed the order. Did not really "need" it but wanted it. 3700x will do until they get stock avaiable in the future.

    Thanks yea thats the one I stumbled on earlier this week on YouTube. Good to hear there's little overspray but was also worried about particles not filtering 100% from the paint box fans. But leading the hose to another box might do the trick. Do you know how loud it is when using?

    Thanks for the tip. I won't be able to crack a window open during the winter but might work to have it collect into a box instead. I'll start with brushes though and look around whats available around here. If anyone has more tips for the paint box please share. Saw someone connect the box to a...

    I almost want to go all in and get an airbrush but I don't have a good way to have an exhaust for the dust/fumes. And the only room I can use for this is by the computer so don't hwant to mess it up with paint everywhere. I saw there's some portable ventilation boxes but they sounded loud and...

    While this might not really fit 100% into this thread I'll post it anyways, could not find another suited for it. Needed a hobby besides gaming on the PC so I started buying paints and brushes to start building and painting scale models. But seeing this thread I might try out some figures also...

    Watch Dogs: Legion

    I'll try the hitman, never even used him yet. I see the problem with the performance though, my GPU only sits at 60-70% load. If I fire up Shadows of the Tomb Raider it goes up to 98-99%. Badly optimized? Not sure but it seems it uses more CPU and less GPU than it should. How do you give the...

    Watch Dogs: Legion

    Started playing while waiting for AC Valhalla and Cyberpunk. The game is fine I guess. I find myself oonly using the Spy and killing everything with the Silenced Pistol and flying around on a drone. Don't see a need yet to do it any other way, unlocked most of the boroughs, got 2 left I think.

    Tried DX11 instead and the frames went up 20-30fps.

    Watch Dogs: Legion

    Maybe it's the Ultrawide thats messing with my DLSS because it does not do anything for the fps in this game. And as Springbook said, it looks pretty crappy, at least the character models and their faces.

    Watch Dogs: Legion

    Patch downloaded today but it didn't do anything for me at least. DLSS is just broken, not a single FPS is gained by turning it on. in Shadows of the Tomb Raider I got like 15-25 more fps from DLSS.

    Watch Dogs: Legion

    Gave them a try, didn't change all too much, this game feels really badly optimized. Can barely break 60fps on high settings. Also, after watching a bunch of Cyberpunk stuff the character models look really bad in comparison. :p

    I got a Ryzen 3700x, RTX 3080 and 32GB RAM at 3600mhz. Ultra Settings, DLSS on Quality with 100% Extra details and Raytraced Reflections on Ultra --> 40 FPS. Ultra Settings, DLSS on Quality with 0% Extra details and Raytraced Reflections Off --> 48-60 FPS. High Settings, DLSS off with 0%...

    Installed it today (free copy from the 3080 purchase). Had a good start when the computer BSOD when I accepted the Anit Cheat popup... Worked the second time I tried but I don't know. The whole play a random citizen thing isn't working for me. The starter characters all looked boring. Will wait...

    The 3070s did not sell out as fast here. I still see a few cards in stock.

    I browsed some starter kits to see what they included. Most seem to come with soft tubing, are they the same dimensions as the hard tubing stuff? They are quite pricey though for sure.

    November 18th I think for the normal cards and December 8th for the 6900xt.

    Not sure if my WoW client is wierd but it's using like 50% of the GPU and not great frames for a "low tech" game.

    Whats the price (low to high) for making a watercooled system from scratch? Not that I'm thinking of doing it right now but kinda curious if one gets bored later on.

    I see 2080 Supers and 2080TI's still in stores for their normal price. Are the stores just out of luck and will have to throw them away? I don't see people buying the 20x0 series for double the price of 30x0 even if theres problems with supply.
