Captain Invictus posted:I think the Valkir legs may be larger than the Space Marine torsos, honestly. Though they might be able to be reduced in size by removing the tabards(because the kit comes with tabard and non-tabard bits for your convenience!!!!!) Warframe: The Modeling. loving badass, but these have been "coming soon" for a long time if I remember. Mango Polo fucked around with this message at 09:07 on May 22, 2015 |

That's nothing since the kickstarted minis took like 3 years to finally get to backers.  I want to say it's still just Mark running the whole show still, so it's a bit slow, but eventually good things come to those who wait.

Dark Sphere sell those Valykir, might pick up a set. Also JackMack, your gift of the Mace Marine has not been forgotten... I'm just going to hold off until the new Codex drops to see how they've fiddled with Honour Guard. Wouldn't want to convert up an entire squad to discover they can't take bloody maces any more...

Element Games also have a bunch of Dreamforge stuff - http://elementgames.co.uk/wargames-and-miniatures/sci-fi-miniatures-games/dreamforge-games I wouldn't use Wayland, they constantly lie about stock levels, take ages to dispatch orders and don't bother contacting you if something goes wrong with the order, meaning you have to keep chasing them.

GW isnt all that bad. Our club were trying to source 3 plasma obliterators, turns out they were so far out in the world that shipping would be 80£, which made it impossible for the local GW to procure them. HQ got whiff that the largest wargaming club in denmark were looking for them and then intervened and had them shipped to us regardless.

Three of the new tracked servitors are $58. The jetbike farseer is $33. Sulecrist fucked around with this message at 14:57 on May 22, 2015 |

I'm guessing $28, which is still too much but would be in line with the rest of their overpriced clampack character models (almost all of which are $26-30).

Congress forces the USPS to fund retiree accounts like 100 years into the future (no company on earth does that) so they can raid those funds for other projects. Also, USPS is often considered a government agency, but it isn't, even though it has to report to the feds for anything it needs to do. So it doesn't receive and federal money and is expected to turn a profit (like a business) but is controlled by the government (who wouldn't know how to operate a lemonade stand, let alone a multi-billion dollar industry.) As an example, the USPS wasn't allowed to raise rates to keep up with inflation in 2011 - the government told them that the reason they were going to lose money wasn't because of the cost of living going up, it was because USPS was mismanaged. So the government doesn't want to allow it to be taken over by a private service, they just want an unending flow of cash from a business that they can control.

At least UK to Sweden is kinda nice in terms of prices. Pity that it still doesn't make it worth buying some of the DF stuff though. Especially when Element is also behind a bit on their releases.

http://www.forgeworld.co.uk/Modelling-Supplies 20ml for about $5.81 per bottle. A bottle of Tamiya Clear <whatever color> goes for about $2.50 for 23ml.

I have a few questions about formations and how they work when building an army. I have the new eldar codex and it is the first 7th ed codex I have bothered to get (have not really played a game of 40k in about 2 years). From reading the codex chart it says that to play the aspect host or seer council I must have at least picked one of the guardian hosts first. Now if I have picked the windrider host and the seer council does that mean I combine the two together so I just add another farseer to it and the original farseer and warlocks from the windrider host become the seer council or would I end up with 3 farseers and 2 warlock conclaves? Is there any way to make a list so I do not have to play a 500 point tax to just get some other special rules? I love playing with aspect warriors but I hate vypers and each guardian hosts need at least 1.

The FW team have been using Tamiya Clear paints through an airbrush for years, and in my own experience I've never noticed any loss of detail when I do use them.

Appears to be very similar bottles to P3 paints, at least.

BULBASAUR posted:I wonder if they're repackaged P3 or Tamiya paints? Since they're marketed as airbrush paints, probably not either. They're going to be pre-thinned for airbrush use, so you can't just slap a label on the pot. With the pot design, maybe they went back to Cote d' Arms?
