You would get the intended effect, but layering multiple coats of varnish risks making the whole thing a little cloudy and obscuring details. If you really wanted to do this I would hand paint both matt and glossy areas. But I also think that messing with sheen doesn't look very nice. I like to matt varnish everything.

Generally trial and error until I get the feel I want. Set up a build one way, try it out. If I find myself running out of of ammo, not doing enough damage, etc, I'll try to remember that and adjust for next time. Although by this point I've played so much all of my guns are pretty locked in and I think I would get confused if I changed OCs now.

I did greatly enjoy the new set of OCs they released. Using most of those now.

Immune to market fluctuations. Based on years working and salary so if you worked a long time then retired and lived for a long time you may get more money than if you had a bag of cash in the market. It lasts until you die and your spouse can inherit it so it provides stability for you and your partner for the rest of your lives instead of having to guess how many more years you're going to live and dividing your savings by number of years left. Removes that stress of outliving your guess and running out of cash.

I would recommend starting with the introduction section of one of the rulebooks. The big ass rulebooks lay it all out for beginners, from the history of the imperium to an overview of the various alien factions. From there you can dive into novels and stuff.

The 3rd and 4th edition rulebooks are my personal favorites, although those are pretty dated if you're looking for modern lore on Primaris marines, Votann, new Eldar factions, or the return of the Emperor's holy sons [REDACTED] and [REDACTED].

If you're interested in a specific faction, that faction's codex will have reams of lore.

Unbelievably cluttered. I have a similar set up but put everything in a cabinet next to the desk. Get another piece of furniture and offload everything but the monitor and keyboard somewhere else. Clean spaces make for uncluttered minds. I am a huge minimalist though.

Can you give an example? This sentence is pretty nonsensical in its own.

For example, Bauhaus is a name of a kind of art, but it is not a description. In fact, it is the name of a place where the art style originated.

So maybe the answer is just, no.

Is this a video talking about when a video might come out? About a game that will come out in two years? Do people really watch this shit

Are you using an fps cap? Try capping at 60 and 30 and see if that helps.

Went to undergrad in early 2000s. We stayed up late in the dorms talking about the meaning of life and society and existence regularly. I think you just didn't manage to find the smart interesting people. And none of us were "culturally Jewish", sounds kind of dog whistly to me.

Regular airbrush primer will be fine on soft plastic. As always, wash with soap and water prior to priming to remove mold releasing lubricants and finga grease.

Another great article from the Rambling Longbeard diving into the history of some High Elf units.

My first squad complete. I loved this new squat range as soon as I saw them. I'm going for a very high (for me at least) painting standard for the army, at least three touches for each element.

Mixed in some 3d printed bits, notably the helmet and shield for the Theyn. Any good dorf unit needs a stout shield up front. Also a frying pan for the squad cook.

There are a few things I'll tweak for future units. I'll simplify the scheme a little, stop picking out the elbow and knee pads in black and stop picking out the boot straps in leather. Unnecessary details that took a long time for a unit of 10. I'll ease back on the scratches on the white armor paint and decals, although I like the way the chipping came out.

I enjoy making sourdough, but I don't want to make it every week. I would like to make it maybe once a month if that. I don't like the hassle of feeding a starter constantly, it doesn't feel worth it when I'm only making sourdough every once in a while.

Is there an alternative to maintaining a starter? I've tried throwing the starter in the fridge but I'm so lazy it just becomes a little cup of mold by the time I take it out two months later.

Many thanks for your wisdom oh Bread Lemmies.
