>paint it with fingerpaints

Daily reminder everyone would be much happier if they spent only 25% of their total miniature budget on miniatures and the rest on getting them professionally painted

>>55210543
Yeah, but then I wouldn't get to paint them, and then what's the point?

>>55210787
Working on OK tier at the moment. Gittin' gud is hard. Hopefully I'll reach gold tier eventually.

>>55210787
What about
>Built and painted the army yourself, even though the end result is "there was an attempt"

Looks like Angron tried to mockingly make/paint Fulgrim

Space Wolves, now with real fur

That fucking thing looks like it was coloured with pencil crayons

>>55210787
I feel like "DYET" tier should be above "NMNS" tier, I mean fuck, at least that guy would put his shit together and, Devil's Advocate here, maybe he's still not got a colour scheme picked out. It's excusable.

>>55210852
i just puked in my mouth

Nothing wrong with commissioning armies. Just pick a studio that isn't shit. You get army that actually looks good, painter gets to live their dream job. Its a win-win.

I'll take it over seeing armies painted like OP.

>>55210787
What's the official /tg/ standard for "well painted"?

>>55211515
Arbitrary, based on the reviewer's mood, the time of day, the current tier of the army you're painting and whether you're using Forge World or not. Admitting to buying real or recast Forge World will result in being shrieked at.

>>55211583

>paying full price for forgeworld

pathetic

>>55211515
If it's good enough that you wouldn't be embarrassed to admit you did it.

That's pretty much how it goes every time a FW model is posted, isn't it?

>>55211633

Given the errors and misalignment issues I've had in the past buying directly from them? and the time/cost of shipping if you aren't a Brit? It just doesn't ever feel like its worth your money. And say what you will about GW's choice of aesthetics lately but the actual quality of their kits is soaring over their Forgeworld counterpart granted I wouldn't even pay full price for their models either. eBay, trades, or bust muh nigga

>>55211702
i don't own a single piece of resin, FW or otherwis. I was just observing a trend.

>>55210833
This is unironically cool.

>>55211607
>buying counterfeit toys because you can't afford real ones
>caring how people waste their money
>not being able to find the shift key

Even more pathetic.

>>55211484
>not backed up for 2+ years
>isn't shit
>financially viable

Pick two.

How do this even happen. And why is it so glossy.

>>55212444
>>55212619
How do ones like this even happen? They're so round and glossy they look more like a kids clay sculpture than a messy model

One is actually from a professional mini painter, he uses a space marine to test out if a color scheme looks good and there's just dozens of layers of paint on it.

That's like paying someone to fuck your wife.

>Buying primaris
Stop being a cuckold anon

Bitch I didn't buy it, I'm not wasting forty bucks on that, and you think I painted it like that while not at gunpoint?

>>55214288
>mfw there's someone going around buying Primaris HQs and forcing people to slap globs of house paint on them at gunpoint

By the Emperor, how horrifying!

>>55210358
How the fuck do you even get that thicc? Why would you share it online? I understand white is easier to get thick but jesus, you actually have to kind of try to get that bad. Also what don't newbies realize that you should always paint troops first?

>>55213593
Some people like to spend hours and hours every weekend painting tiny mans with tiny paint brushes, and some people like to play the game. It's okay to be in the first camp, anon. There's no need to get mad.
