@idizme4316 20 дней назад

I can't thank you enough for this idea. After years of being part of Warhammer community as a lore nerd, I finally have enough money to dip my toes in to the miniature side of the hobby. My only problem is that GamesWorkshop is really expensive, and eBay does not always have what I need. Not only that, but I really love dark mechanicum and have deemed them as my favourite faction, and was going to customize admech army as a dark mechanicum army. And as I was scrolling for admech minies in ebay, I saw a lot of "box of random bits" offers and was thinking that those might be useful for something. And now seeing this video it just now gives me an idea that I could create the models myself by combining those random bits, everyday stuff from my house and clay or something similar (already do sculpting as a hobby) to create my own models. Thank you for this amazing idea and keep up the great content. (English is not my primary language so bear with me here)

@Hartmansgrad 21 день назад

Printing big things has been a revelation...so much so, my gaming group has decided to revisit Inquisitor, the old GW large scale skermish RPG. My eye-sight is failing as I get older and I hear a lot of complaints about scale creep in miniatures lately but doubling the scale of stuff has worked nicely. As a test project, I created 250 pt armies for Warhammer 40k 3rd ed, which whilst the game was definitely not intended to be played at tha scale (points or miniatures) it was a very fun hobby and gaming project for a bunch of grognards.

@Bluecho4 21 день назад

I supported Pete the Wargamer's "Dead Animal Bits" sprue kickstarter a while back, so I'm going to have quite a few spares. While the sprue is mostly organic parts, like horns, severed hands/heads, bones, and shark teeth, the sprue DOES have oversized kiwi skulls. And I've been thinking that would work very well for strange kitbashed cyber-thralls, if they're poking out from under shrouds. So this video is VERY relevant to my interests. Unrelated, but this technique also works for creating your own Nighthaunt minis for Age of Sigmar. Just remove all the random wires, and employ regular skull bits and arms from historical minis. Anyone who builds such kits has a plethora of spare weapon arms.

@nickkohlmann 10 дней назад

I would be so happy if the Grim Skull models (e.g. the amazing grimdark servitors and much more) on Wargames Exclusive would also be available as digital files, not only physical minis. Tracking through a warzone, shipping and especially customs are a huge factor in why I would prefer to have them printed by a company/friend in my country :/ I asked them about this and I was told they don't plan to offer digital files, sadly. Either way, their designs are the best I've ever seen for many models.
