50 Years of Text Games - book recommendation in c/[email protected]
[–] ralothar 1 points 11 months ago

In a similar vein, though more about video-games themselves, I can also recommend Dungeon Hacks: How NetHack, Angband, and Other Rougelikes Changed the Course of Video Games by David L. Craddock. (For those who are interested in DungeonCrawlers and their origins)

Finally completed the rest of the Leviathan box. Kind of proud right now, yet C&C is always welcome :)

Edit:typo

Finally some more progress on my 'Nids in c/warhammer40k
[–] ralothar 4 points 1 year ago

Thank you. I'm painting them in batches. The bigger and common steps across all minis. So took a long time. If I had to guess probably something like 15-20 hours for the screamer all in all. Space Marine was done with bits I had left and green stuff

Unfortunately life got in the way but the past couple of weeks I managed to continue on some models and even finished others :)

After having completed the nodebeast with black carapace, I kind of wish I would have gone with this color scheme for all the others haha

What 40k YouTube channels do you recommend? in c/warhammer40k

Weshammer is pretty good too

How long is it normally between announcements and releases? in c/warhammer40k
[–] ralothar 1 points 1 year ago

I'd say probably about 2-3 months; maybe more

Is there a way to disable swipe-gestures? They do look nice but I constantly save or upvote random posts or comments just by scrolling and fat-fingering

Update on Leviathan Box Tyranids (self.warhammer40k)

A couple of days later, finished basic shading and drybrushing of fleshy areas. Working in batches takes some time for each step but the endresult will look really nice and uniform.

Will probably do the carapaces next. I'll give an update once that's done

Not mad at my progress with the Tyranids in c/warhammer40k

Thanks. Good thing I convinced my dad to paint the space marine side of the box

Will do! Only ever lurked on reddit so I'm trying to change that here.

Had to clip some parts of the pins away for the screamers chest to fit. Also the gap on the frontal dorsal carapace of the Psychophage is really bad. I even filled it up with plastic putty but it still shows

Though I gotta say, removing all those mould-lines was a pita
