  1. Quick someone make an animated gif of it! The original DOW intro video is still what I directly credit with changing my opinion of 40K being "that corny game at the hobby shop" to something that was dark and gritty and worth my interest.
  2. Caption read: "Too Metal to Function in Public". I read "Too Mental to Function in Public"...
  3. "I mean... it would be nice if nothing ever went wrong, and everything that shouldn't be on fire, stayed not on fire. But, just in case... ya' know?"
  4. I worried that 1776 thing might be over the top. Sorry! :)
  5. Her short life was way too brief, but Pepper was a good ol' dog...
  6. HANCOCK NOW! It ain't accurate... but it'll blow you ******* mind!
  7. I feels your pain. "Despite this, I usually will have to take my airbrush completely apart and put it back together to get it working." This seems like you are doing a pretty good job of cleaning, but there is some obscure choke point in the paint path that is eluding your cleaning regimen. In my case there was a thin coat of paint inside of the nozzle(AB003 in the diagram below), that I swore I was cleaning out. Once I new to watch out for it, I started getting more consistent success from my airbrush. When you first break out your airbrush, run some cleaner or even water through it. You should be able to see a consistent flow. Then work your way up with properly thinned paints. Remember usually multiple thin coats is better than one thick one anyway. Sounds like par for the course for the type of compressor you are using. I gave up on mine for the noise and the fact that I would see fluctuation in the pressure being supplied as the compressor turned on and off. Now I just use a $100 craftsman compressor that I use with my nail gun.
  8. I've got the US starter kit, and a full set of Zvesda t-72s and BTR-80's to proxy for my soviets for now. Painting is slow going, but they don't have to be finished to get a game in. That being said... I have yet to play! I did find my old Twilight 2000 books for inspiration. I'm pretty unsure of what I want to do for terrain yet. The 80's are kind of boring compared to 40K or Infinity... I don't have the A-10's yet, but I did find some 1/144th F-15 Strike Eagle models that might do for now.
  9. OK, I have not seen the Revenant. Sicario is the best move I've seen from 2015. Plenty of time to reflect. No question.
  10. My wife just finished book 3 with a "wow, I can't download book 4 fast enough!" Also saw this today: The Expanse #6: Babylon's Ashes: (August 2016, TBA)[5]
