You don't "flick" through a catalog you stupid euros, you "flip" through it. Because you're flipping the pages over.

That's hardly relevant. Tell the illiterate your point about the press. Or the literate too far away to benefit immediately.

I get that this is the Death Thread, but you're being intentionally obtuse. I'll bet your smarter than that, you can do better trying to refute my point.

The one big thing infinity is missing from its anime lineup and needs to address due to its popularity is an intergalactic pop idol singing group. It really needs a group of 3-9 idols singing like Minmay or idolmaster/love live.

please stop flicking through the same 1989 catalogue you've had since you were 8


There are plenty of GW models that are still around that were pretty old when I started though it's just now they're twice the price and made out of finecast.

How is a lack of connectivity not relevant? If I can't get to my rules, they are useless to me. Batteries die and I'm not always near an outlet (again, middle of a convention center floor.) I can always carry a book. And what does literacy have to do with anything? If you're not literate, I'm doubtful you're playing one of these games.

Look at the poses though, the standing one is okay, the one on the left is slowly tripping over his own foot.

You're changing the focus of the conversation. I said the internet is the better version of the Gutenberg press. Historically it's going to do more to spread information than the press will have. You argued that if you don't connectivity you can't get the information. That's functionally the same as being out of easy reach of printed materials, or unable to read them.

And if they were all standing, people would bitch about them lacking dynamism.

oh my god is that a circular saw that does not go in my mouth aaaaagh
steps to talking about a game's models (this works even if you haven't played the game!!)

the first step is you look at a sculpt and then the second step is you say whether you like it or you don't like it

for example:


i like this model because he is a cool skeleton man who looks like he is having a fun time being a skeleton. the proportions are pretty good and the overall design reads well, although maybe he could have a scarier pose (but then he wouldn't look like he's having so much fun)

one more example:


i do not like this model because there are an awful lot of details that don't really add to the overall design and its difficult to tell what's going on at a glance because of how the shapes are broken up. mixing vampires and ghosts is maybe muddling the themes a bit too much as well. it could work if you broke this idea into two (or more!) models, maybe one with ghostly riders and another with vampires chilling out?
