      Honestly that policy is so dumb and I see it as hurting Games Workshop more than helping them. It makes the community really fractured and hostile at times as well. GW is the closest thing to a household name wargaming has, they don't need to be so threatened by people using different minis they have the means to update their 30 year old models but choose not to. This is excluding blatant theft of IP like copying moulds, etc.

    I really appreciate how much you focus on the process and the amount of real time footage you show. I think the thing I’ve learned the most from this channel is that good paint jobs just take time. I know it’s more editing work but I’d find it really insightful to know how long certain parts of a model took after a video during the close ups.

    I was in a pretty severe car accident and it really messed up my dominant arm (shoulder to hand) After all the hemming, hawing and boohooing, I got my butt into physical therapy for my left shoulder so I can paint again without too much pain. I could get a couple layers of a base coat before I couldn’t feel my hand. It’s slowly getting a little less painful, a little longer paint sessions and PT is kicking my ass, but I’m not sure I would have gotten back into painting without some of your motivational videos.

    Those Nid PRoxies look amazing. I might have to print them out for my buddy's army. He still has the classic metal ones from the
    early 90s. I see a birthday gift in his future.

    Years ago I ended up with a closing store's bits bin. 3D printing compatible pieces is finally letting me put them to use. Always a fan of maximizing a GW box.

    Oh I already ended up getting some models from a third party company, mostly because GW stopped producing the type of guardsmen that I want to use. And I sure as hell can't afford continue to buy them off ebay. For anyone curious it's valhallans I am collecting. And now I can sprinkle in some female troops into my army so that is a bonus

      Nice move , Ebay pricing is off the charts crazy . I used to pick up unwanted lots of Tau , Spave wolves etc and built nice armies for 1/4 of the price they sold new . These days no go, the price is off the charts . New pricing is bordering on insane , so i have moved to all 3d models. Some brilliant stuff to be had for way cheaper and when people see it painted it converts them very quickly, then you mention the price and they are totally sold on 3d.

      @@parabot2 been thinking of a 3d printer, but my issue is having storage for it. Maybe one day, only thing I spend money on ebay nowadays is once in a while rare and cheapish models. Usually older ones that isn't as popular, but dam looking at something like a grail knight and you do wonder why half a model is so dam expensive

    I will typically do a base coat, wash then a damp or dry brush or sometimes both then follow with edge highlighting and gets the same look but much faster. Of course on the signature models I will spend more time on the highlighting and even sometimes do wet mix fades for super smooth transitions.. Like you said there are so many ways to get the the same finish line.

    If it's a small game, indie, etc. then I'll buy the official models. In historical land there's just tons of options for almost everything so buy what you want. For big players like GW I have no issues looking for alternatives (that aren't just reprints/recasts/etc.)
