Interestingly, John Carpenter recently mentioned that there's a reboot of The Thing in the works, albeit directed by David Gorden Green (director of the 2018 Halloween and also Pineapple Express). I'm cautiously optimistic, since Carpenter implied he will be involved with the project in some capacity.

    In my mind, every model I build out of the box by the rules, is GW's army.

    Yeah. Don't use them to try to win money at tournies.
    But so many cool kits are either discontinued or priced to the sky because of table top function.
    Use you best judgement, the rule of conversion is effort.

      Why can't he use them to win money at tournies? I feel like models shouldn't be locked behind a paywall. It seems kinda messed up that people with more money have an advantage over others. I've never played Warhammer though so forgive me if Im being ignorant.

    • @skunk12
      @skunk12 3 года назад +7

      @@jakeeck you are looking through fresh eyes and you are correct.
      Cant speak for others with certainty, but ive always assumed that its simply the babies that complain because they may feel "cheated" if they spent the money on "legitimate models" versus someone else.
      I never buy bootleg, but on occaision i'll make conversions which means "creating a unique look/pose/weapon or model and use it in place of the official issue."
      Im more intersted in the hobby than the game and most people are cool and dig the conversions.
      However, there are blatant scumbags that do dirty tricks like change the base sizes (which matters in a game of inches) for an advantage.
      Hope this helps.
      PS. For you babies that might be butthurt, not all, not all, not all.

      @codesimpson6010 2 года назад

      @@jakeeck In magic the gathering there's a similar thing. It's called Proxying, where you get a print out of a card you don't own. In some formats that could save you thousands, but there are 3 reasons one might be against it
      1) You're using a proxy because it's powerful. In a game designed to end with a win, a more powerful card is always better, and people can feel cheated if you have a really powerful card, especially if you have a bunch of them. (I believe this is not a justified complaint)
      2) They might be pissed that you got what they have way cheaper. I play with people who have more money than sense. Some of thier decks are tuned to an absurd powetlevel, and that level of power comes at a cost. All 10 original dual lands cost between 5000$-6000$, so he might feel cheated if you had them printed out for 60 cent. (I believe this is not a justified complaint.
      3) You aren't supporting the original creators, or the local game store that you would have otherwise bought from.
      I personally don't care about Wizards, or GamesWorkshop getting my money, but if I want to continue to have somewhere to play these games I love, patronage is required. It's expensive for stores to lease thier space, and they have to play employees to host events. (I believe this can justify wanting to avoid proxying.)
      Warhammer is a very expensive hobby though, so I personally think if you want to play it, nobody should stop you from doing what it takes to field an army

      When you're working with/pouring larger scale amounts of resin the fumes can actually build up on your skin leaving a weird tacky residue. And when your standing above your work looking down, those fumes find your face.

    I love the circus idea. Nurgle is a god of abundance and his gifts are many. Unlike Khorn and to a lesser extent Tzeench, Nurgle is focused on the spread of his rot, not just combat. I love all of the different interpretations of decay. How are you going to unify all of these different ideas so that they seem like one army? Maybe they could all have the symbol of their one United circus

    • @Miscast
      @Miscast  4 года назад +1

      The styles are going to mixed together in units and painted in a way that unifies them, so not to worried them not looking uniform, they'll come together. I have lots of plans for narrative stuff like stitched together unit banners made from a variety of circus banners, that sort of thing. A united circus symbol is a great idea!

    Amazing stuff, reminds me of how the chaos armies were described in Michael Moorcock's books (which were a huge influence for early GW).

    1:07 these long necky boys on the left remind me of the long snake and salamander conversions in the 3rd Edition Chaos Space Marine Codex on page 46 :D Love your modeling! Can't wait for the next one!

    Kitbashing is such a brilliant addition to the hobby. Using dollar-store cheap plastic toys, or recycling bottlecaps and old packaging, as well even just the sprues from models can be really useful. It's a great way to use leftover bits, and some hobby stores often sell 'leftover sprues' which have just a few pieces on and aren't useful other than for a few random bits and a super cheap price.

      Yeah! That sounds like a cool hobby shop

    This is awesome!! Not okay for super competitive tournament players but great for newbies(such as me) and people who as you said don’t want to break the bank. I’ve only ever made two miniatures but get ready for my first army(made sorta like this also ever)!
