    Star Wars general purpose movie stuff

    I thought this really captured it, with just footage of the 70's/80's transposed with George Lucas, Kathleen Kennedy and JJ Abrams, some youtube creators and others.

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    Too easy so far? Just hit level 5 with my group on multiplayer. We're playing on Tactician and it seems too easy still. Maybe it's just level 5 is a big power jump, we min/max and we were still in Act 1 doing the Hag fight. Does difficulty ramp up?

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    What race is everyone going. I wanted Gith just because they get Misty Step, Mage Hand and Jump. But they look ridiculous. I can't do it. So thinking Half Elf / Wood Elf. Extra movement is really nice and always useful, plus darkvision and Fey ancestry. I'll be mostly a melee class...

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    I know Fighter seems basic but I'm still leaning that way. Battle Master Fighter with Sentinel and Polearm Master feat, then dip into maybe Wizard or Cleric.

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    I'm strongly leaning Battlemaster Fighter for my first play through. I feel like I pretty much have to take Githyanki for the Misty Step (and improved jump). Unless I'm way over estimating how good that is. Or Half Orc I guess. I'm playing with 3 friends multiplayer only. We have Paladin...

    Great stuff @Khalan . I like everything on them. Colors, bases, models. All good man. I still have 6 terminators to go. Hopefully 5 after today. Then I'll likely be gearing up for that new Cadian box. Looks awesome.

    Miniature Painting

    Yeah I definitely first got into them for the look. Love the yellow and black. But since then I watched a few things on Imperial Fists and Dorn so now I'm committed to a small army of em.

    A bit more progress. Still have 7 more terminators to go but I can get them done fairly quick.

    Destiny 2 - Clan Link 1st Post

    My brothers and I playing last night. For some reason, this game always tries to throw in some obstacle at the very end of a phase. This is just the Duality dungeon. We were cruising along, last damage phase to win. Should have been easy. But we cross over to the upside down world, and both...

    Damn that looks cool, built for edge highlights. Maybe drybrush em on.

    The Lord of the Rings

    Show's getting worse. Whatever the guys name is that's supposed to be the Sir Jorah to Galadriels Daenerys just said "The past is dead, we either move forward or we die with it" She's trying to get across the sea with an army. Harfoots are shockingly bad now. I still barely know anyones...

    The Lord of the Rings

    Galadriel is neither smart nor nice in this. I classify jumping into the ocean as dumb rather than brave. She needs an arc though I suppose so let's say it's room for growth.
  13. Dashel

    The Lord of the Rings

    I mean... OBVIOUSLY. Harfoot storyline is the worst. The one cool thing is the Elves working on making what I assume becomes Saurons tower and the forge needed to make the rings. Or the forge that makes the sword that chops his fingers off... one or both? Although maybe I misread that.
  14. Dashel

    The Lord of the Rings

    Yeah and to be fair, the intro and dwarven music are much better than the Harfoot's. This will obviously be compared to the Trilogy and that score was phenomenal. I don't expect it to be at that level. So the main theme and Dwarven music, possibly the elves music too I'd have to find it, is...

    The Lord of the Rings

    Harfioot sounds like some weird tribal and maybe scottish/gaelic mix. When they come on screen those drums or whatever they are play and takes me right out of it. This all feels like a very expensive show made by amateurs. They're able to accomplish great visual effects but the way they do it...
  16. Dashel

    The Lord of the Rings

    I'll have to re-listen to the intro. I'm talking more like the Harfoot music vs the Shire: So compare this: To this: The Harfoot sounds like you just walked into the Disney Animal kingdom theme park. Ridiculous.

    The Lord of the Rings

    I'm mid episode 2 now. I've seen enough to say it's not good. It feels generic. Some random fantasy with elves and dwarves that licensed words like Sauron and Khazad Dum. A series of situations to put people in, some "remember Sauron" , "remember Elrond", "remember Galadriel" stuff. Very...

    Miniature Painting

    Yeah man, it's a fun tool for the hobby. Last thing I'll mention is find a spot to put the airbrush. Can just be a simple cardboard box but you need air circulation and/or a respirator. I have a spray booth with an exhaust that vents out my window and I'm only using an old covid mask now, but...

    Miniature Painting

    Yeah Stynylrez or Pro Acryl primer, and Vallejo flow improver, thinner and airbrush cleaner. Inks yeah I mean depends on what you're aiming to do. They are super potent so in general thin layers go a long way. For the tank I primed it, base coat in red, sprayed white over that, then Vallejo...

    Just finished up my tank for the Horus Heresy models I'm doing. I think I used my Badger for all the airbrush stuff. Prime, basecoat, zenithal, varnishing. Actually I think I used the Iwata for the zenithal but that was optional. Badger could have done it. No qualifiers, I'm proud of how it...

    Miniature Painting

    Yah my take on Airbrushes: Badger Patriot 105 is the best starter. I also love my Iwata HPCS. Both can do anything you'll need imo as a beginner. Even now these two are all I use and either could do what I did on my Tank or any minis. Compressor, anything that looks like the AS-186 model...

    Warhammer 40k

    This looks dope. Horus Heresy. Good mix of the creepy Warhammer vibe and not doing too much.

    Working on a tank now. First I've done, it wasnt as bad as I thought it would be to put together.

    MTG thread

    I"m playing MTG Arena. Sorry should have said that. I'm a filthy casual too. So I play mono color decks that are pretty basic. I'm open to learning others but not savvy enough to be building something.

    Gonna stop here on him. I'll get the other 9 to this level and see what it looks like with the Beakies.

    I've plateaued at this game. Where do people go to for deck ideas. I need something new. Preferably with Black / Red or Blue in it.
  27. Dashel

    Miniature Painting

    @Regime Badger Patriot 105 for base coats, priming, varnishing. Iwata HP-CS for more detailed stuff. But either alone can handle whatever I typically do. Compressor, mine is a Zeny compressor but anything that looks like an AS-186 model with a tank is almost exactly the same. Like this one...

  29. Dashel

    Miniature Painting

    Yah @Regime I basically had them base coated in red to start. And then over that I did thin layers of white. Tamiya flat white is the best I've found for this by the way, it's amazingly smooth through the airbrush. Where I wanted it to be bright yellow I made it almost pure white. Where I...

    10 Terminators built, primed and airbrush phase is done. Still need to do all the brush work but making progress.

    What are you playing?

    I've been looking for something new to play with 3 other friends. We still play Destiny 2 with myself and 2 brothers. We all did Divinity Original Sin 2 with 4 of us. Tried Gloomhaven thinking it would be similar to DOS2 but it's meh. Next we're trying Rainbow Six Siege on the...

    I may have to break down and buy some more terrain to display my stuff. We'll see. In other news, GW did new reveals and most were meh, but these new LOTR Elves look dope:

    Just another shot of the Imperial Fists. I like these Battlefield in a Box terrain pieces from Gale Force 9. Sturdy, one piece, painted, ready to go out of the box.

    I had to look up GSC. They have some very cool models. I never really noticed. I might pick up a Magus to paint. Yeah I mean sounds like you're ready to go. Maybe some milliput or something for molding, gaps, and anything missing.

    5 done to tabletop standard. They look good in a group.

    Love the terrain. That's been on my to do list for quite a while. I really like the statue head you have there. Ideally I'd like to have a mix of scatter terrain and so some different set ups on a display board.

    He's looking much more like an Imperial Fist. I might change things up yet again for the next one, but not too much. This guy took me a very reasonable amount of time to do, so I feel like I can get a bunch done. I think a squad will look pretty good.
  39. Dashel

    Miniature Painting

    Much more yellow this time. WIP obviously but I think when all the little things are done it will look good. Maybe. I'm also planning to try using AK Interactive Streaking Grime on him. Chipping, weathering, battle damage. We'll see.

    It's been a minute, but I'm back at it. I will try for a brighter yellow final result next time.
