Hands down, this is probably my best painted model to date. I painted this back in May for a competition and won gold. Even looking over it now months later, there is absolutely nothing I would change! All done by hand no airbrush #warhammer40k #warhammercommunity #minipainting #orks #mozrogskragbad

Rat rat

This Skaven takes a fighting crouch, his shield braced, his spear ready to strike, and his breath ready to drop a hippo at 50 paces.

More pustule cluster (clustule?) that rat-man, really. 'to Skrolk' should be a verb.
He raises his Rod of Corruption and holds open the Liber Bubonicus. You feel like you need a shower.

I took up the task to adapt the GPU renderer of MK4 from OpenGL that our emulator engineer did to our bakesale rendering abstraction. Adding 2x, 4x was a easy call to make, just need to render the scene in a bigger intermediate render target.

Digital Eclipse @digitaleclipse.bsky.social · 5d

We've enhanced MK4's graphics with 2x and 4x rendering modes, which give the 1997 arcade original a smooth, modern look. It's entirely optional -- run at the original resolution with the CRT filter for authenticity!

Statistically Backed Stereotypes for Each 40k Faction. Astounding. Motion for Deathwatch to be renamed to Hotwifewatch.

www.reddit.com/r/Grimdank/c...

Text tong to fit - it's a list of subreddit memberships for each of the 40k factions. Here's a sample...

r/AdeptusCustodes: gundam (19.71), airforce (19.20), daytrading (16.56), sandersforpresident (9.82), centrist (6.93). Conclusion: Ex-military guys with schizophrenic politics.

r/AdeptusMechanicus: pathfinder_rpg (14.05), adhdmeme (7.27), dankleft (6.07), theowlhouse (5.88), kerbalspaceprogram (5.39). Conclusion: Current stereotypes are pretty much correct.

r/BloodAngels: preppers (15.98), airforce (15.74), menslib (9.04), asktrp (9.01), asktrumpsupporters (8.45). Conclusion: Black Templars got nothing on these guys.

Amazon have removed the guns from their Bond posters, giving the tantalising impression that Sean Connery and Pierce Brosnan think you’re a wanker.

Maybe it's because I paint Orks, but I find it incredbly frustrating to try to batch paint models. Just silver alone, each model has like 7 places that need to be silver, and they can't all be done at the same time. Order of operations is important!

My colleagues at Bloomberg report that the $20 billion debt in the EA deal is expected to be rated single-B — meaning it is considered a "junk" loan, or one that is high-risk and speculative, typically offering high interest rates. Which the new EA will have to pay

I absolutely hate that any guide that purports to help you ‘finish painting your minis faster’ boils down to lowering your standards and make your miniatures look awful.
