      @@PraetorGix Also people are not used to be on camera, it is pretty awkward to have your reactions filmed, which of course hinders spontaneity. It's a big channel too, so there's that pressure. Then not everybody will act like in the movies to show their happiness... although this has become what we "expect".
      I get your point but catching somebody off guard + the camera surely tames down the "observable" response ;)
      I think it's cool Emil and his guys don't put the emphasis on "how" a response should be with abusive montage, but just take it as it comes !

      Even in the same countries you can see the difference. In France for example people from the Northern part don't show many emotions whereas the ones from the Southern part are so intense. I myself am from a Northern country, but my girlfriend is latina and gosh are we opposite when it comes to showing emotions. XD

    I'm pretty sure there's an easy way to go for a faster army to paint.
    Necrons are rather easy for it, one crazy guy near me did a full army of them in a weekend with some pretty large breaks for sleep and similar.
    For basing, he used the plastic canvas with a matching hole punch to just power through the majority of them, primed them all black, used two drybrushes over the mini, one other metallic drybrush over the base, added a wash, then went in for details with some neons, and hit the rims.
    There's also the massive horde that a friend of mine did for the Prodos AVP game...flat black primer, drybrush a neon over them from top down, clean up the majority of the base, then hit the rims with the same neon color. The design went almost wireframe and fit a lot of the old kenner AvP toys, and that was under a whole day for the entire thing with a few breaks for food and the like...morning to evening and the only thing not finished until later was sealing them due to rain issues

    Not usually one for cheese, but this is very delicious. Love to see good things happen to good people.

    Well, this video just made my day. Someone doing something nice for someone they barely know. Well done. I built one of those dragons for my Vampire Count army in 8th edition and it probably took me 4 months to build and paint. And dang, it must be a headache to pack those dragons for shipping.
