    Im about 3/4th through and I don't think I want to finish it right now. I agree with everything posted above pretty much. Think I will buy the Black Company with my audible credits and listen to that instead.

    Miniature Painting

    Supposedly they just click together with no glue at all. I think the hardcores in this hobby repaint and weather them to make them look awesome.

    Miniature Painting

    I know myself and when they say "start with the 1/144 and do the more expensive 1/100 master grades later" I just have to do the more advanced one first or I'd be disapointed. :p Started with cheaper models on the tanks and planes and they sucked compared to the ones I get now. Ordered a...

    Miniature Painting

    Anyone built "Gunpla"? Been stumbling over videos about them every now and then but never took the time to watch. Started watching a newbie guide now and it looks kinda fun. Painting not necessary but can be done to make them better. Seems like something one need to get into a bit before getting...

    This will take a while..... 2 parts for each track link. 95 links each side. This kit was a bit more expensive but the quality is top of the line with workable suspension and tracks and lots of details.

    I u I use the bike you get after completing act 1. Feels way better to drive than cars.

    Yep for sure, thought it was a new kit due to the box art but that was false. I learned scalemates.com is what you need. There you can follow all the kits and what they've done and where they are from.

    Apache ah64 from Italieri. Worst build yet. Really bad instructions and the fit when building was not good at all. Got kinda pissed by that so I powered through and built it during the weekend. It was a rush job but ended up pretty nice, got lots of mistakes and shortcuts. Getting another...

    Cyberpunk 2077

    Ah damn guess I need to do a few Gigs then. I just did that mission you mentioned and always end up gunning everything down. :p I have avoided side missions as they are flagged as hard still but the gigs are probably doable, I just forgot about them.

    Is bullet time a perk? I think I'm going for a pistol play through. Only got 7 perks so far though.

    Cyberpunk 2077

    I'm on the last step on the prologue I think and haven't had any crashing while playing. Crashed once when loading an earlier save but thats it. Encountered a few bugs though but mostly cosmetic ones. One bug was quest related and had to reload before the quest to be able to continue.

    Cyberpunk 2077

    Turned off the stuff you mentioned and it looks much better. The shadow option does not do anything for my fps though. Still sits at 60ish at Ultra 1440p UW.

    Cyberpunk 2077

    That was my issue with Odyssey as well. Thought it ended then you could continue for two more endings. I dont really like that way of doing an ending. Looking forward to starting cyberpunk today after work. Will paus my valhalla playthrough for a while. Think im only powerlvl 55 in that game still.

    I really like the P500a case. But it is a bit bigger than the P400a I think. Really good space to build in and it has gotten really good reviews on thermals.

    Finished the Merkava Mark 3d today. Well, one more clear coat to go but it won't do any difference. Not sure if I will weather it, I kinda like it just preshaded and clean. Might do it later if I feel the need.

    Miniature Painting

    This kit is crazy detailed. A thousand small details like hooks and pins and everything else to glue, half of the stuff I break loose when handling it. :p The turret isn't even halfway done in this picture. I've made a few mistakes when assembling it. Its not quite as good a fit as tamiyas...

    I started the Merkava MK3d yesterday with is made by Meng. Heard good things about those kits but so far I'm not impressed. Lots of plastic flash and injection points. Its very very detailed though. So far I'm most satisfied with that Leopard tank thats from Tamiya. The F14 and the Jas 39 was...

    First tank attempt done. Due to my rough primer application I didn't want to spend too much time on weathering it as the surface was so bumpy. Will do an Israeli Merkava tank next, they look cool and a different color scheme.

    (2020) Assassin's Creed Valhalla

    I think the game is fine but its more of a viking simulator than Assassin's creed. But I feel the last 3 games haven't been much Assassin's Creed anyway.

    Did the primer with Stylnylrez primer (UMP) at 25 PSI and then base coat with Ammo Nato Green at 17 PSI. However the topside surface feels kinda rough, a bit lite sandpaper texture while the underside and side skirts are really smooth. Somehow I did something different when spraying the top of...

    Newest project, Leopard 2A6. Thought tanks was built by gluing two halves together then painting it but it has way more details to mount than the airplanes. Pleasantly surprised by that. I should take it slow but once I start building time flies and I keep going. One more basket on the tower...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Love the expansion so far! Once I get in after 2h it disconnects. Like all things in 2020, you can't play/buy anything. I'll try again in a month or two I guess.

    No stores will have stock for the 3rd party AMD cards over here it seems. Everyone have a notice they dont have any units coming in for launch. Even worse release than Nvidia lol.

    I've seen a few "gunpla" youtube videos pop up for me but never watched them. Are they pre painted and you just add details/shading/battle dmg? Or do you paint every part from scratch?

    Miniature Painting

    My brother builds mostly WW2 tanks and I think they are more "detailed" than modern ones. The WW2 stuff got lots of shovels and other details to paint and seems to have more interesting camo/color schemes. I ordered a Leopard 2A6 Tank just now though to start with. Black, green and brown camo...

    Thinking of doing a tank as the next project. Not sure which one though. I want to do a big ass tank if I go for it, not sure what model to look for as there are so many out there and the box art does not do them justice. Might also try build a car but I have not decided yet. Cars feels like a...

    Miniature Painting

    Finished the F-14a today. Used the Jolly Roger paint scheme as it was a bit different from all gray tones. Learned a lot how the paintbrush works and what varnishes to use. Now I need to try add more weathering and shading on the next build. Not sure what to buy though. Something besides a...

    Listening to the audiobook right now but as others said. Nothing is happening. Same whiny characters that never seem to do anything. I just dont feel this series is for me. I just listened to a 2nd run of malazan and enjoyed that one just as much as the first time. But stormlight, not so much...

    Miniature Painting

    Almost done with my F14 project. Just the missiles to paint and fit and Matt varnish on the underside. I finally found a varnish that works for me, Vallejo Acrylic in Aerosol cans. They have the same thing for airbrush and will probably get that instead on the next build. More control with the...

    So funny to read some forums about these cards. "Nvidia sucks there's no stock", "amd will save us they got their shit together", "amd sucks there's no stock". Like it wasnt to be expected.

    I enjoy this series but Shallan and her mental fuckup is a big turn off. Dislike her as much as some WoT female characters.

    Even more of a paper launch this time. The cards went upp and now gone from the websites. No new cards until they get the non AMD ones it seems. Glad I did not have to fight on the front lines for this one. :p

    Was curious about prices etc but the radeon cards are not listed over here until 15:00 and they have a very limited supply with no more cards coming until other manufacturers release theirs.

    Thanks for the tip. Thinned it down a bit and dropped to 10ish psi. Worked much better now! It happened just as you said, building up and blasting out. But thinned down it was much easier but will still take practice. And to find a good mix of thinner and paint.

    17 is the recommended for these paints, they are ready to go out of the bottle. But I guess thats only for coating large areas.
