And then this happened.
Unlike most of my images, this one's voteable. I know, a rarity.

Not really. Everything you see there was learned customizing 40K miniatures.

The Micro Mark saw is a fine tool!
@Brian -back to the quitting GW sub-topic, what are your thoughts then on Building Gothic vehicles and terrain..will you miss it? Do you think the Gothic look and 40K are indistinguishable in sci-fi?

I believe that the 'add more skulls' mentality is being done on purpose to try and prevent 40K terrain from being re-purposed for other game systems.
Having said that, a ruined city is a ruined city is a ruined city. As long as it isn't covered in skulls, you can get away with using it for Bolt Action or other such games. Heck, a ruined cathedral is usable back to the Dark Ages, yanno?
Present delivered, I utterly crushed any competition, including the quite nice wooden recurve shortbow she was given. In addition, and I quote, "I like it more than Nick." Nick is her boyfriend...who was standing five feet away. I apologized to him.

Good one Brian! I agree, so m,any buildings w/o skulls can be used for 40k and other games.

I will note that this was delivered/shown off to a decent crowd of people, some single, others with good social networks/connections, along with delicious CSA meat and freshly made (by me) strawberry shortcake, which also blew people's minds. So the notion of "Look what this guy can do, AND he's single" is now 'out there'.
Mission accomplished.

They should have them, imo, but as freebees to get folks to look through the rest of their digital products. But 2 bucks for 7 pages (one of which is the cover) is a bit insane.
