w00tmonger posted:looks good. The aesthetic might be a bit out of place for 40k, but this is high science fiction as poo poo I've been out of the game for a while, but wouldn't this fit in with "pre-heresy" 40k? A lot of art work or conversions I've seen tend to have this similar Art Deco/Dieselpunk sort of vibe going for it, and this seems it wouldn't be out of place for it. My only gripe is the arms and legs look just a tad too spindly.

But instead of being a bunch of beer-swilling, flag wavin', xenophobic red necks, we'll instead base their entire story on all the worst aspects of the C.S.A., plus some terrible and awful stereotypes, including a chapter master in a white hood (and poorly converted beakie).

Perhaps it's bias from being a historicals player leaking in, but it doesn't seem as bad as some of the other lot we've seen, what with all the rapey demon "dark dork fantasies". I mean, it's still tits on a mini, but I just don't feel offended by this compared to, say, the naked slave ammo carrier from a page or two ago.

I think when you start painting swastikas or giant murals of Aryan Pride on the side of your Soviet iconography, at least in the west, will appear innocuous to the average passerby, and wouldn't raise an eyebrow except for the most groggiest of historical grogs if you started slapping pro-Stalin propaganda slogans on the sides of your Basically, different imagery and iconography are treated differently depending on how your local society is sensitive to/willing to tolerate it. Just be mindful of how others may perceive what you're doing, and don't pretend it was an accident when you paint the loving 3rd SS-Division Totenkopf. Also, black coat SS is loving boring for a battle field. Why the hell not fallshirmjagers?

Also, they should be posed in a manner that displays these features, as the character will appear "liberated" and be empowering for female gamers.

Basically, if you want to break in, especially as an independent artist, you have to cut your teeth writing lovely porno-doujins until you get enough money/fan base to do a non-porno comic, and your first few comics are probably going to be borderline softcore poo poo until you've made enough of a name for yourself to finally write what you've been wanting to write, except now you'll have to compromise your vision because if you don't still include *something* perverted, all of those fans you built up from your porno days will turn on you and poison the well for all the non-perverted fans you're trying to capture.

Atlas Hugged posted:No, I get it and I've played plenty of RPGs where at the crucial moment I needed to hit and I missed or hope was lost and I got a critical hit and was back in the game. The big difference here is that I can save the game and replay battles I've lost, so if I get some bullshit RNG results, it's at most set me back 20 minutes. That's hugely different to getting stomped on for 2 hours because I can't get the dice to go my way. That, and aren't some rpgs are smart enough to realize if you attempt a certain fight more than once, it starts adjusting the RNG towards your favor?
