edonil Posted November 13, 2014 Report Share Posted November 13, 2014 Oh, that's why I knew the name Dan Simmons, he was up for the 'classic' Hugo awards this year or something like that. Not read anything by him, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nikko Andass Posted November 13, 2014 Report Share Posted November 13, 2014 I need to send Mako a message about my glossy/flat finish probs. You said he gave you some sort of "formula" or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted November 13, 2014 Report Share Posted November 13, 2014 Not so much a formula, more of a chemistry lesson of what to look for on the labeling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nikko Andass Posted November 13, 2014 Report Share Posted November 13, 2014 Oh, gotcha. I haven't had any luck finding a liquid flat finish I thought would be appropriate for small models. Hopefully he'll be able to recommend something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted November 13, 2014 Report Share Posted November 13, 2014 Probably. I think he uses a Vallejo brush one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nikko Andass Posted November 13, 2014 Report Share Posted November 13, 2014 Hmmmm, I already use the Vallejo matte varnish for my initial layer. Maybe I'm using it wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nikko Andass Posted November 13, 2014 Report Share Posted November 13, 2014 Reading around on the Net, I think I may be thinning it too much. I think I'll try it straight, with no water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted November 13, 2014 Report Share Posted November 13, 2014 I just use Testor's Matte Varnish spray, but that's me, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dustcrusher Posted November 13, 2014 Report Share Posted November 13, 2014 I always thought that cat owners should be legally required to video themselves tying to get their cats into carry boxes and put it online for the nation's amusement. One of mine gets right in, no joke. The trick is to sometimes take your cat to places he or she will like, like the pet furniture section of the pet store (are pet shops that allow pets just an American thing?). I was just watching a "post mortem" of a game on YouTube. Really competitive, certainly not for everyone. Involves negotiation and calculation and deceit; almost like "Risk" meets Chess meets Machiavelli. I enjoy it, but rarely get to play it anymore. Lots of people absolutely loathe it. Diplomacy: The Game That Ends Friendships, as I've heard it called Never played it, but from what I can tell, you pretty much have to assume everyone is going to come after you at some point, so you have to wheel and deal and stay a step ahead. Senji, from the reviews, has the essence of Diplomacy in a game that ends in 2 hours or less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dustcrusher Posted November 14, 2014 Report Share Posted November 14, 2014 Holy crap Kings of War 2 Kickstarter... I'm only pledging for the books and a set of counters, unless they add anything new for Ogres, Orcs, or Undead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, I've had at least a couple of friends who swore they'd never get near it again unless it were to toast marshmallows over the smoldering remains of the game box.

Mister Monkey Posted November 15, 2014 Report Share Posted November 15, 2014 Yeah I am still debating if I am going in on the Kickstarter at the book level or whether to just wait for general release. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dustcrusher Posted November 17, 2014 Report Share Posted November 17, 2014 My girlfriend loved her sushi-themed birthday gifts Good news for my poor unpainted miniatures: I think I'm pretty much done with video games for a while, at least as my primary time-waster. I can finally get my spare room cleaned up (or at least, cleaner) and do some painting. I don't know if I am going to go in on more, but I might add 10 Succubi to the KoW 2 pledge, just to see how they turn out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
