We have a community for tabletop minis like this at https://lemmy.world/c/tabletopminis

Would love for you to join us and crosspost this there!

I’ve got a pending subscribe on there. I posted though!

These look amazing! Well done!

Nice army, the turret on a printed razorback super overkill!!

You may be interested to join both lemmy.world/c/warhammer40k and, as I can see a few 2nd edition starter set marines and some old metal terminators, lemmy.world/c/oldhammer.

At last an Oldhammer Lemmy!

[–] fearofthedark@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Come and join us!! Post some pics of your lovely miniature, I'd certainly love to see them.

The world looked gorgeous but the gameplay looked awkward and clunky. I don't know if I'll buy it but I love Avatar so maybe.

Oh goodness I don’t play modern Warhammer.

I have wayyy to much money in Warmachine minis - a hobby I loved that the WotC lawsuit starting killing and the pandemic more or less finished off.

I also have dabbled in creating my own stuff for board games such as Gloomhaven.

I never managed to finish paiting any warhammer stuff. Got into Malifaux for a bit since you have less minis but each one is more distinct. I have no idea where they ended up.

I do like having smaller forces with fewer minis. I mostly play using OnePageRules and the above picture is as many minis as I field at max. I like games this size or smaller down to skirmish or combat RPG. I’m not a fan of modern 40k games with hundreds and hundreds of fodder troops being shuffled around.

Remember trying to get into Warhammer as a kid. Turned out I was absolute pants at painting and gave it up pretty quick 🤣

[–] setsneedtofeed@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago

Everybody is a terrible painter. Tbh I’ve painted for ages and only consider myself a fundamental painter with a lot of patience. There’s paintjobs I look at and go “nah I’m not competing with that.”

Homemade character tokens:

[–] setsneedtofeed@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah I saw these on creative I think? These look like a super portable way to set up DND games.

[–] mo_ztt@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yep, they are much easier than minis and to me they are more attractive / preferable to just using M&Ms or something. Plus, I made them! 😃

[–] setsneedtofeed@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah somebody made something similar for tokens in Marvel Crisis Protocol to represent different status effects. Much more aesthetic than colored poker chips or dice following the minis around like a pile of trash.

Hey I've also got a bunch of red Space Marines
