Sir we just got a communicae from third division and it's troublesome: "the clapping is in the walls, growing louder each day. It's getting closer. Non stop clapping of cheeks."

Everyone should have an inappropriate titty mini or two, whether it's a busty illithid, a snake with breasts for no goddamn reason, or just a boob with bat wings. If someone gives you poo poo for playing, like, nothing but dragonborn characters you pull out The Worst Mini and teach them to be careful what they wish for.

I don't get to do that because I already play space wolves.

My favorite was when his Patreon supporters basically bought him a Warlord titan and he was all "and now I'm going to paint it as quickly as possible!" I mean, it looked fine, but a $2200 miniature is not something you really want to speed paint.

TheBigAristotle posted:Also his techniques and tips are poo poo: I don't think it looks terrible. I bet from tabletop distance it looks fine and probably better than just the flat yellow. I also don't agree that his tips/techniques are that bad. He does stray into some questionable design decisions, he's a clumsy painter for sure, and definitely not the strongest technique-wise or end result-wise, especially in comparison to the other creators in his sphere. edit: oh I didn't see the video, just the yellow terminators. Yeah, that's very bad. I understand the idea he's going for, but woof. Every time they try to do something with mixed media it ends up looking quite bad. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w1KUtn3zIgk ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Verisimilidude fucked around with this message at 22:14 on Aug 2, 2023 |

What, you mean you don't want to glue a bunch of garbage to your Tyranids?

I wouldn't scoff at any of those nids if they were just, like, some random guy's minis. Some of them are even kinda regular-guy-mini cool--I kinda like the pink decorator crab look. But that's different from "let me teach you my ways" good.

I don't think Midwinter is concerned with tutorials anymore, usually when a Hobby YouTuber gets long in the tooth they start to deviate. Like how Squidmar used to teach stuff when he first started and what he does now I don't even know. Ad skits?

I haven't watched MWM in a long time, stopped having the time, but this is really disappointing to see. He seemed like one of those wholesome dudes that would be cool, but man you really can't rely on content creators to not be awful it turns out. I'm scared to know if some of the others that got me started on painting, are still cool dudes? Namely Goobertown Hobbies, and Miniac?

Goobertown seems cool https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ck6Fh735lrA still a weirdo though. I was subscribed to Squidmar for a bit last year just to watch this thing go together because look at it! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g5eBZ4FHjnI Jonny Nox fucked around with this message at 01:02 on Aug 3, 2023 |

The white in the recesses on the head and around the teeth is absolutely killing me. I'm sure it's intentional, but it looks loving terrible when zoomed in that much for a photo.

He strikes me as weird, but harmless and not at all problematic. When the 2020 BLM protests happened, he was a content creator with the spine to speak up and put out a video in support of the protests, and to express utter disgust at what was happening. Same for supporting Games Workshop when they told fascists and white supremacists to get hosed.

I've considered doing the tube thing for art subjects a few times. Then I remember the comment section and how integral it is to success these days. Sucks.

It just goes to show that you don't actually have to be good at a specific hobby to get a large fanbase, you just have to be good at narrating and editing.

Well, yeah. That's how most of television has always worked. "Subject expert" pundits have said nothing particularly insightful for generations, but enough people will still watch to keep them well paid.
