>Watched 8th edition 40k demos at LGS all day
>Want to get into it, but no time or money to waste on autistically painting miniatures
How do I cope?
Play Infinity instead. Less miniatures to paint and waste money on per army.

>implying infinity fags actually paint their minis
they're never in /wip/ threads and even in your circle-jerk generals 99.9% of painted figs are from the manufacturer's site.

Borrow a friend's army.
>>53707823
Start a small force of an army you like and can accept having a simple paint scheme on. You may think painting figurines is autist-level, but it can be very relaxing and help you unwind. Or you can challenge yourself with it. Either way, it's gonna cost some money, and the end product is usually fulfilling to produce.

Play a good game instead.

I shitpost to help me deal with it.
Buy the new starter set
Then Buy a plague marine color base paint
Buy a space marine color base paint
Buy a wash or two
Then just water down the base paint and cover the mini with it
When it dries it wont dry thick unless you are really bad
Then coat everything in a wash to make the details pop
Then boom
You have two small forces to play games with and they are both painted enough to not be gray blobs
If you wanted to, you could actually take time and do the details to make them not look half assed too

>wanting to play 8th edition
nice shill

That's because WIP threads are full of 40k players that rarely give feedback on anything that isn't 40k related. It's basically a 40k painting general.

I hate to imagine how much this applies to practically everyone on this board, for every game played on this board.
