Oh my did I just get proposed to on Dakka? hahah xxx

It's Dakka, and it's Childe, I would not take the proposal too seriously if I were you.

And yes, that is the way Gentlemen used to be able to handle insults from ruffians, now the lightest tap on the shoulder and they can have the police take you away.

Lol fake or not, proposals are always nice haha

and it's true, those were the good old days

OMG, I'm on the verge of changing my avatar- just got a private message- "is it realy you in the avatar, there are no girl gamers" or something to that effect... lol haha xxx

I am very worried on what is happening on this thread.

I mean, who lets Shrike post without insulting the tiny midget child? For shame Ladies and Gentlemen, for Shame!

Hey, If bubble takes it seriously... I would as well ^_^

How could anyone say no to her?

with the lights and the sirens and they straight jackets.. ahhh good times.

but then again dutch prisons are like hotels. we there for call them tax hotels.

well...childe... for once... peter cushing is my old fashioned favorite personification of sherlock...

but the new version done by downey jr. and cumberpatch i like for their anto social behavior... something the older version in films didn´t show...but i like these... the quasi autistic ways of the bbc sherlock version i really find interesting and his nastyness... yetserday as i stated we watched the baskerville episode...where he even experimented with his "friend" watson... that is telling you something^^... also i think his as you stated quasi phallus (lol) character is something i like quite much... and beside the fact that i define myself as a mostly (well mostly as who knows what the road ahead might bring up...) hetero guy... but i think cumberpatch oozes a certain kind of sexyness i am not afraid to say even i can feel... that man has a certain something... for once i am not jealous of a better looking man than me but i can understand his success...


and soon there will be yet another installment of this great character... set in the victorian area but this time with a twist as watson will be played by lucy liu... well we´ll see how that will develop soon i guess...

If Lucy Liu ever plays Watson I am instantly out....


The lazy eye ruins it for me...


Sorry, Lucy...


Kinda like when they made Apollo a female in BSG.....



At least you could look at her and know whether or not she was looking back.....

I still love Lucy!

That was Starbuck AND Boomer that got made into Female characters, s they did to Cain

Yeah cucumberpatch is BBC... But don't Knock Jeremy Brett until you've tried him

hey,,, KATY SACKOFF WAS AWESOME AS STARBUCK!!!

Apollo was still male btw

Yeah, that's what I meant. She was a looker, now, don't get me wrong. But I am old and had problems not seeing Dirk Benedict in that role...

I grew up on repeats of the original, and loved it, and I love the new reimagining too.

I did, as well....


I hated the ending, however, as it was a bit contrived....

yeah I do agree with that tbh... seemed a little too much "Gaius is Jesus" and "Adama is Zeus" which irked me... don't get me wrong, I love it when people try and attempt new takes on old ideas, but that was a little too much.

I still love Lucy! [url]

hurhurhur... i see waht you did there mate!!!


well i see your point here... i think we need to take a cold shower now and get a bit more off that stuff... i think i need to make a new and good update soon... as this might cool everybody down a bit...

that fighting scene with him bubble showed prooved me one thing... done that way sherlock doesn´t do cool... but that is just personal taste again... so don´t get your undies in an uproar

Also- Robert Downey Jr is the 2nd best Holmes in my opinion- his portrayal is very close to the books

Lucy Liu? ... doesn't do much for me I have to say haha xxx

actually liu is quite hawt... ^^ but downey put a totally cool spin on the whole character... and well we all got jude law in with the two new movies as well... that was a bargain too^^

lol we are, did you guess or did I tell you (bad memory hehe )
he knows about my new found dakka popularity and just didn't want to get involved... I think he's embaressed to be associated with me, would rather ignore me on here haha xxx

I don't think RDJ did anything new to the part. Very much like the books, IMHO...



And endless soft stabbing may be too nice a fate for Childe if this young lady is attached.....


Leave mine alone and yours will be safe too, thats my thoughts on women.....

Well, I has a thing for Asian women, also redheads and even tall ones. My biggest dilemma is if I met a 6ft tall, red head green eyed Asian gal. Then my reason is gone.

So far just in some Anime series like Tenchi Muyo(Adult form Washuu) Risty the Benevolent Bandit of the wastes., etc.

Lucy lui is over rated imo... gimmie a redhead or a raven haired british woman any day of the week

Karen Gillan, Lilly Cole, Lilly Allen, Jessie J (yes really), and Brodie Dalh (lead singer of the distillers, yes I know she's american, but she hawt!!)

well shaso... with a specific taste like that it is no wnder you are solo...*hint, hint, hint...damsels out there!!!*

and to tease you... my wife was a redhead when i met her first time... and she is as tall as me...which is 1.86m or...6 ' and 1.22 ...

tho she definatly is not an asien^^... but well two out of three^^

Vik, your thread title is starting to sound ironic

How are the guard coming?

well actually i need to take pics later on...(this might mean even in the morning tho...) because today i was in an artshop an got me some new brushes... and one of them is way weird... a bended one...which can be quite handy for certain odd positions you would like to paint... feels more ergonomic...

and yes... i see the satirical aproach now

Blended? how?

at dave... not blended but bended... curved one...

looking almost like this one...:




lol...max... i probably know what you referr to^^

Shas, its less of a Sniper-Rifle and more of a Sniper-CANNON with the shells she uses

Hehehe, that looks almost like one that was damaged in transit - are you sure you don't just have a very fast-talking salesman at your LGS?

Can see some scenarios it would be useful for, but I bet it takes some getting used to. Have you tried it out yet?

Oh! That's pretty cool Vik! I'd like to try something like that!

yup tried it out.. and it works quite good... well new brushes are always nice to have^^... but it is an intended bended brush...for getting acces to tight spots... and no i wasn´t talkied into byung this one lol...and my own brush looks not really that way...

that:



is the one i have...

Hehe, .50 cal or 20mm

they had lots of other cool shaped brushes too... one looked like it would make stripes...three or four each time with each stroke... but i only bought two brushes this time... keep the budget at a low level^^

something like that shas, considering the Cal of the rifle and how tiny her character is, I'm surprised her shoulder hasn't been ripped from its joint several times over...

but this gun surley has an inbuilt recoil surpressor... and if you start the whole realism issue... could you imagine her arms cpable of onehandedly wielding this gun in that pose...? now could you?

I had a 98lb soldier that used to fire the .50 Barret....


He did fine.....

lols, If you apply realism to Anime, then the whole thing falls appart... especially for the big bewbs to gravity ratio

I don't follow this stuff, but I am curious to know....is there someone throwing crayons and D cell batteries at her? or what is going on here?

they are bullet casings dude

Well, they don't look like casings, spent or live, and where are they coming from? It just doesn't make sense. But then, there is that whole non-realism thing I guess.

Trust me on this, they are casings lols. having watched that series and everything... plus they are only representational of ammunition

no artistic vision you lot

The artist was being silly the gun needs batteries for the scope and the bullets Railgun???

And yeah Childe, My eyes usually do get caught scopiing the ladies' derriere

lol... it is funny that you mentio the batteries and the bullets in this pic... after that i had a look again and i saw that her boot zips are totaly open???


ok...probably artistic vision...lol...

C'mon! she is running around in a bikini top and super short shorts. oversized boots and a big scarf.

didn´t recognize the scarf before...lol... but the bikinitop is under some terrible stress...^^

boys... lol xxx

Cracking pair, but the rifle is just bloody horrible.
Im assuming its ment to be a barrett .50 or an AS.50?

Needs more bolt action single fire or PSG1.
Shame really, ruins the whole thing

Let's just say that if it were real life, who among us would say no? (apart from Bubble of course, unless she's into that kind of thing )

Stop trying to probe for info shrike
Unsubtle is unsubtle lol.

I somehow don't think that was the probing shrike had in mind

Easy childe
Just started eating my pizza lol.



Vik, whats wrong with guns?
Sure, its more than a slight obsession, but its a healthy one XD

I dont think he wants to probe your pizza either Jackal

I want a PSG-1, for days like this, when I feel utter gak, I can then camp on building tops and cure the world of chav's... and my ex

He can keep his fething hands off my pizza
Domino's double decadence based pepperoni passion

Hmm, good idea, but too genocidal, plus, im pretty damn chavvy if im honest XD

is Dominos any good? I've seen the commercials, but never had it.

How the hell can you afford to pay for such expensive Gak? O_o

well you have a chance to stop being a chav... the PSG-1 arrives in a few weeks

be careful... in the US they had yet again another of those nice productive shootouts...


and i say... a G3 can do all those things too... and you get it way easier than a PSG-1

Domino's is quality, just bloody expensive lol.
The pizza i got in medium was £16.49

What can I say, I fell in love with the PSG-1 back when I played Metal Gear Solid in '96/'97... tis a sexy beast of a rifle, the only problem with the PSG-1 is the way the magazine kicks out when reloading, makes it a gakker to police your brass when you spend two hours searching for a mag thats been thrown metres into brush (I'm not aware they have fixed the kick out problem yet, but I may be wrong)

now what you don´t say^^...lol




and though we had back then in the army not really much amo to spend the day with i had quite a good amount of results back then... shooting was fun back then...

Plus I know the PSG-1 has no practical field use either due to its mag problem, the only people who use it are FBI and other similar world agencies during terror situations.

What does "chavvy" mean? lol

Its not so much a meaning, and more of a dress code and mentality which can only be summed up in this image:



thug mentality at its rabbit breeding worst...

Heckler and Koch, you are gods of war ^_^

.... there is an old saying here...

deutsche waffen, deutches geld...morden in aller welt...

means...

german guns and german money... murder all around the world...

which is true... in every sense... the HK MP5 for instance is used all over the world... from baddies to goodies... everyone uses it...and the list goes on and on...


and the mag really flies away when unloading? that is too stupid...

Its a UK phenomenon really... I know of no other country plagued by people like this.

also, my favorite sniper's probably the PSG-1 too, or maybe the barrett 50 cal.

But for just fething gak up, the AA-12 will probably always be top of my list ^^
fully automatic shotgun firing something like 300 rounds a minute, next to no recoil, more durable and robust than an AK-47, can fire an array of ammo (including grenade shells) up to 175 yards, 20 round drum magazine, has shells for anti-personell, heavy infrantry, breaching doors and even anti-tank, and can take out just about anything it comes across

@ Shrike: Seen that.

@Jackal: Here in America, we have Job core for many to try and work for college money if they do not go military or can't.

FPSRussia, the only person i sub to on youtube

Also, see this:

Is it the job market? Public Education costs? Why does the UK have all these people and not enough places for them to work?

Also, the narrator's tone really shows how excited (possibly even aroused by the sounds of it) he is at it:

Hmmm SAW aka Heavy Stubber

I think Shrike is a bit aroused!

They choose not to work, they can work the benefits system (cheat it) to actually get more money than the average working person does.
So, its people who work for a living who end up paying to support them.

No, War never changes, Vik

Dave its because the EU gives us a massive proportion of imigrants we have to take because we are part of the EU. ours is greater than both France and Germany, countries that have a greater proportion of country to population. As such, our jobs get saturated with people willing to work for next to nothing, which leaves people who think they are above meanial tasks unwilling to work public sector jobs.

Tis truely fracked Dave.

Bring back national service, or make those who refuse to work do community service.

^^^ QFT.

Ok...I see, so it's like what we have, called Welfare. But does anyone know? Are they all REALLY freeloading off the system? Does the unemployment rate meet or exceed the "benefits bums"?

I ask because often our news media ONLY ever shows those who blatantly ripp off the Welfare system, by constantly having babies to keep it up, but in reality most of them are just using the system to get out of a tough spot and on their feet again. Of course, our media is ruthless.

Its far worse than that, see my above answer. its a combination of both, but it's the EU directives which lead to the benefits system being more lucrative than working.

I ask because often our news media ONLY ever shows those who blatantly ripp off the Welfare system, by constantly having babies to keep it up, but in reality most of them are just using the system to get out of a tough spot and on their feet again. Of course, our media is ruthless.

IMO it seems 50/50 really, the media shines the spotlight on the unwilling more than the ones who are looking for work. I myself am on DSS (welfare to you Americans lols), and I'm looking for employment in the Art sector, which i'm sure most of you know is like looking for a needle in a haystack...

What is the EU directive?

And Unemployment is really more at a level of magnitude un reported so as to not worry folks. The news only reports unemployed folks who draw unemployment checks and report that they are still looking for work.

They do NOT report those that never applied, and those who ceased reporting due to their unemployment being cut off.

Meanwhile there is "Corporate welfare" all of this is a subject best left for OT section.

as a still idialistic socialist i would like you to skip the too conservative discussion to a different thread mates... this is almost the one thing i can´t be having here... better talk about bews again...or guns... whatever else... but working as a slave for the state is a no go in these parts! i know there is talk in my coutry about this scheme too and i fear one day they will succeed and then all those that liked that idea i fear will choke on the results themselves too...

No worries comrade

sorry Vik...my bad

Now as for a nice sniper rifle........scoped M-1 or M-14 for me.

done with it dude
Also, just started painting the glowy sword

no dave... your point i understand quite good...and i liked your way of thinking what the media tries to make us think...

it is so easy to think that all unemployed chaps out there inthis big world are justz stupid slackers...(tho i have to say...there were times when i had absolutly no sense why i should be working for a boss that wants to treat me like dirt...) so i didn´t...

Got the day off tomorrow so ill get the whole model finished and based then.

Night all and enjoy then random chat as allways

Just so as I can answer Daves question Vik, I'll shut up about it afterwards. Dave, I'm not fully up on the EU mandates... mainly because I really don't want to be a part of the EU anymore. If you wanted to know more, I'd google it if i were you

sooooooooooo Bewbs ^_^

Heard of, haven't listened to... I tend to prefer other stuff ^^

Hmmm, music

Music, hmmm, i think i have a different taste to anyone else here on that subject


On the plus side, i finished my bloody keeper of secrets, just 12 hours work -_-

shrike knows fully well what music me likes^^...

and i am about to upload some pics... need some guidance for the hannibal character...the scheme needs some fresh thoughts...

Evening vik, and looking forward to it

Finished the glowy sword too!
The 1st 2 ideas came out badly though, so i had to strip the paint and start again -_-

oooooh glowy lol xxx

lol, it is glowy
Well, when i can get the light and camera to actually work together for once

Meh everyone has different tastes Jackal, I listen to everything from 50's swing, RnB (thats rhythm and blues, not that moden gak using the same initials), Rock, Rap, Metal, Dance, Industrial, hardcore, and even classical music. It's good to be different ^_^

Here you go bubble, a random glowy sword, with poor lighting :(





Fair enough childe
Im more into my hardcore / rave / trance but i still dont mind a bit of bob marley or UB40 lol.

er... if you listen to almost everything...how can you be different? just asking in a totally inocent and polite way ^^

at jackal... had a look already...

but i think you need to explain what i am seeing there as i didn´t understood the glowy effect quite well...


so...


need your help as i said... this is already the thrid instalment of hannibal now... and i am still not really satisfied with the scheme for the basecoats...your turn then...






coat is now vermin fur and black trimmings...or better black inside...

the white trousers...red jacket... black hat...black boots...


and then the issue about the bended brush... this is it.... and i have to say... i love that thing... makes painting for my somehow way more easier... i need to experiment with an old brush now if i am able to bend it too...




cheers, vik

Vik, i assume that brush is angled upwards while using it so the strokes are more natural rather than the bristles having to bend.
That should give it a far cleaner stroke each time.
Also, its bloody good for getting to hard to reach areas on a model.
I own 2 of them (ultra fine and standard) and i swear by them for most things.
Also, since its a far more natural stroke and not a forced drag, they dont leave any brush marks on the paint, even if you havent thinned it prior to using it.
Great for large areas of armour or long flowing cloaks.

jackal... my thoughts exactly on that brush! i simply fell in love with that one... i know the shop has a bigger sized one too in their range... i will get that soon too... to good to refuse... the painting motion is as you discribed it way more natural for me...and i can do way pre precises strokes with it too...

Its amazing how something as simple as a bend in a brush makes it soo much better.
You would have thought that it would have been a common place brush to use now, but i guess not :(

I also use a deluded S7 rubber brush which is pretty damn good, well, was before the company went bust lol.
Still going after 5 years
Simply a normal brush, but rather than bristles it has a rubber point.
The rubber draws up paint like a normal brush, but it has less flex in it, meaning for edging and lining its amazing.


Soo many handy tools that people dont know about or havent used.

aye... it is most vexing that you don´t know so many ineresting questions to ask for... the answers for these could make ones live so much better....

are we talking here about a paintshaper... that mostly nowadays gets used for GS sculpting? if you have a pic... or a link of a pic i would be most grateful!

Put Gold or yellow on the trim of the coat...

Cant find a full pic, but here are the tips of them:



The shapers are a bit more rigid and tend to damage it rather than apply it.

Thanks fer the bump Vik.

hmmm....dave you think giving it a bit of a posh look will solve it... should i use white trousers or more like black ones?i am totally unsure... tho the golden rim might help...!

took a look and i see only in your description the difference between paintshapers and rubber tipped brushes... but i take your word for it^^

Do you want him to look like a Redcoat?

If You want him to look like a Redcoat, then you are going to HAVE to give it the same scheme as real Redcoats!

White also works.
-Remember the old Halloween costume rule?
"If you have to explain it, it wasn't a good costume"

lol...that is like...the third time i read you posting that rule...not that i am complaining^^ it is in fact totaly true^^

and yes... redcoats...with a twist but basically the scheme styts the same... so white pants and red coats and the vests probably red too...


and i wouldn´t destroy... only slightly pummeling you

ooh, I like the sound of a rubber-tipped brush and a bend brush... any chance of links?

Jackal wrote:Music, hmmm, i think i have a different taste to anyone else here on that subject

Oh?

I very much like early 70's through early 90's rock and roll, heavy metal, hard rock and rock specifically (70's Led Zeppelin through to 90's Metallica), but also some more different stuff- I don't mind blues rock or some classical every so often. I think the majority of tabletop gamers tend to like rock, or similar sub-genres, which I always thought slightly odd seeing as in most other respects, we're quite diverse...

sorry shrike no links atm... but i posted a pic of siad brush...and the company is readable there too...

and what is your take on my hannibal mini?


by the way... am about to go to bed soon.... i feel totally knocked out...

hmm, I'm not really sure... he's missing something on his clothes, but I don't know what...

The brown still has some primer showing through, looks like another coating is needed?

Maybe a slightly lighter brown so the shading can begin to be built up.

the brown was meant only as a basecoat really... in fact i intened to get the coat mostly done with devlan mud later on... do you think the shining through primer might be problematic...

and the real trouble i have with the vest and the pants... somehow this looks dull... on this mini at least.. standard cadian i think it looks cool tho...

You must decide.....

Morning all

Decided to start my next project, but it will be time consuming :(

at dave...er...i ask you lot... ´corse i decide but when i am at a loss i need exertise from you...sheesh...

and jackal... er...is this a call from you to ask for mercy or pity?... morning...and get it on!...

A bit of both i think
Allways liked the flamers of tzeentch models, however, i need a daemon prince of tzeentch model.

So, im going to make a massive flying flamer of tzeentch from scratch lol, so a ton of framework and GS.

ups... that sounds quite challenging^^...

The real trick will probably be figuring out when to stop adding to it before it becomes to big. Otherwise no planning needed whatsoever, just do it.

Nah, i like to plan things
And if i have base framework, i have a pre-set size then lol.

will it be more muscle-y or more firey? could be both too... of course... made any sketches yet?

Flamers have no set form so I sort of expect it to make people turn mad just by looking at it.

Going for more of a twisting / warping fire giant like the old artwork.



However, this one will have 4 arms and possibly wings (not sure on the wings yet)

The very rough frame ive got stands at the height of a soulgrinder, or 1.5x the size of a normal prince.
Will need some serious bulking out though.

Doesn't need wings if you don't want them or can't figure them out. It's Tzeentch it just works out somehow with magic.

is there any pics around the net to somehow show in what direction the mini might go?...you know me... demons and such things i think are cool tho i have little knowlegde about these...

I know
Was thinking more and more about it, but now ive decided against it, rather just have a fiery mane (sp?) running up its back instead.

ah... nice of you jackal to provide a sortz of guiding pic...well with this one get some air dry clay first to get the bulk done with cheaper materials... seems this would get really pricey and long time timewaster if done all by GS alone...

Something like this vik, but about 2.3 - 3x the height.






Edit: GS is not an issue vik.
I get it from galeforce9 and its bloody cheap.
From doing an old old project i still have 1kg of it lol.



Edit again:

Sculpting wise, i started this back in 2010, but never have finished it:

ok... i can see where this is leading to now... and 1kg of GS...wow!...

and wow again to that nurgle greater demon (?) attempt!... do work some more on that one... the detailwork looks very good!

I have to see if I can find my first Daemon sculpt to add to the fun.

feel free not_u... i like that too...

Thanks vik
The main issue i had was that the nurgle daemon is very static in its pose.
May still get it finished though as it will be the 2nd sculpt ive actually bothered to finish lol.


Edit:
http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/232429.page

Theres my old account and my blog on here for sculpting.
If you scroll down a bit you can see the nurgle daemon on a 40mm base that i actually finished lol.

wow... i hope you feel akward for not getting that lil fella painted... he has some rather basic pull and pinched details on it but the whole thing looks so weird cute.... it would be a real shame if you don´t finish that one...the balde...the bum and the teeth... very cool mini you should darn... i repeat myself...^^

and you seem to be around for ages already... joined 2008 back then...

Nurgle makes Bubble sad :(

haha, but cool sculpt though Jackal xxx

lol, ive been on here too long
Annoying thing is, back then i used a private storage account for my pics rather than dakka since dakka pic storage had a few issues.
So all of my pics are in a private photobucket account :(

I still have the lil fella!
He is sat on my helf with his weapon broken off, just needs fixing lol.

He is too small to be a daemon prince and too big to be a plaguebearer, so no idea what to use him for lol.



Edit: lol, how so bubble? and cheers

nurgle makes everyone happy as he has a gift for everyone... papa nurgle is your pal and your well pappa^^

and you don´t need an excuse to finish the lil nurgle... heck...if i had to find an excuse to why i paint and modle i would be doing nothing...as i am no player atm..

Just made him a new weapon lol, he now has a cleaver
I could use him as a beast of nurgle, but he would need atleast 4 more friends lol.

Also, i did more work on the bigger one and forgot to blog that.
Might get some work done on him later on.


Edit: My brain works again!
I could just use the little guy as a herald of nurgle lol.

lol... never is something for naught^^ cleaver sounds cool!

and four more of this one... will be timeconsuming but i think worth it^^

Ive managed to find some old ogre models i can use for the base concept now
Saves me having to build wire frames as they are just the right size.

Might mix the weapons up a bit though.
Cleavers, scythes and possibly a mance for good measure lol.
Beasts of nurgle are hardly competative, but tough none the less.

well then they could serve as meatshields then^^
and ogre models are very versatile^^

The only issue with ogres is that the pose of them is very static, however, a razor saw solves this

And thats a role they perform well.
They can absorb an insane amount of shooting every turn.

i saw ion this bard already a fine range of converted ogres... with your saw you can do lots of things with these...

Main thing will be leg and arm possitioning.
As they are they look like statues.
Might simply cut their legs and arms off the GS them back on in better poses.

sounds like a good plan... and yep... since the torso is so damn striaght you have not that much options...

Could cut out a bit then bend them if you really wanted. Plus side is Nurgle is supposed to be sort of icky so you and just fix up any joint pretty easily.

The torso will be sculpted on anyway, so in theory i can twist the sculpting round the torso to change the pose as needed.
However, with all the limbs able to be changed, the torso shouldnt need changing.

yup with nurgle you get all new options for posing^^

Now have 9 ogres that are missing both arms and legs XD

Thought if i was going to make some i might aswell go for a nice round 10 incase i want more later on.

Or go further and make two units of seven.

I may do to simply go with the numbers theme for chaos.
Ive got 30 ogre bulls if needed.

Also, im in 2 minds weather i should make them the same as the little one, or go for a less mutated all over look.
Could keep them as hulking lumps of flesh still, but add in nurgle detail rather than re-sculpting the whole thing.

lol... yeah why not

well as for arms... i have quite a large collection of those... if you are in need...? legs i can´t help you with tho...

Thanks vik but i should be fine
Got 5k of ogres if i need to harvest parts lol, not to mention endless sprues of extra's.
