That’s a very bootlicking take.

Don't know if I'm supposed to be posting it, but here is the discord with a link to the files:
You should post that link! So we can name and shame these horrible people, infringing on Games Workshop IP. Don't they have any shame? GW puts a lot of time and effort into sculpting those minis!
It's disgusting I tell you.
It's all about presentation.
huh so it does look like stuff is happing with the Tau its just that no ones talking about it or hasn't fully played out yet.
Warhammer 40k lore is progressed in two ways, as blurbs in rule books (as was the case with the Tau stuff) and in Black Library novels. Since 8th they've started writing new material, where previously they would focus on expanding the previous lore, sometimes in weird ways (the War of the Beast).
Now there hasn't been too many codex or supplement drops for Tau and Black Library much like Forgeworld and Citadel do what sells: space marines.
So there might have been some movement but I doubt anything meaningful (I wouldn't know for sure, you see Tau females don't have boobs and I'm not interested in blue alien that don't have boobs).

Speaking of Tau mini's aren't they supposed to have a shit tone of different xeno races in the empire in lore while only the kroot and vespids(?) have models. I haven't looked in to how many or what their like but I know some people want a few as models.
They also have knock off Dwarves

This cartoonist is a complete faggot and nobody has ever had sex with him.
Not necessarily faggotry but it is a perfect encapsulation of modern view of politics, that is as little more than a fashion statement completely ignoring that politics involves policy and is informed by an underlying worldview and set of beliefs.

Sorry, but the cartoon in question is a Bors/Horsey tier strawman that shows colossal historical ignorance. The smug air and aspiration to moral superiority sets my teeth on edge. This was my hobby long before social justice horseshit was a thing and I absolutely reject others’ right to judge me as morally inferior just because I play a historically-inspired force.
These are the cunts that sneer at you for playing DKoK or Templars but have no issues with you playing Valhallans (Soviets killed far more than Nazis), White Scars/Attillans (Genhis Khan was not a nice guy) or Tallarn (let me know when a Nazi detonates a backpack bomb in the middle of a bunch of children at an Ariana Grande concert).
 
There's a pretty healthy fan contingent in Korea and Japan, Korea probably moreso. I have a peer whose dayjob is painting and conversions, maybe they'll let me post some here. When it comes to females I see more who just enjoy painting or the fujos that thirst over kawaii bishounen Primarchs, never met any that actually like to play. Troons don't count.
Most I’ve known only paint but I knew a guy whose girlfriend from Germany played Necrons and she could actually beat people in competitive games but she was still a casual player.* They have a kid now I think… A woman playing is like a unicorn but it does occasionally happen. I’ve seen a couple other women play and they’re usually younger and are the daughters of neckbeards and were dating or married to a neckbeard. However, they were all casual players. I've known lots of players and gone to a few tournaments so it’s still an extremely small percentage, the vast majority of them just paint or are interested in one of the rpgs, like the one set in the old world pre-AoS.

*She made an autist cry at a small local tournament because she curbstomped his Tau riptide spam in 7th. The best part is she genuinely was just there for the painting competition and didn’t care how far she went in the tournament. One of the top 5 funniest moments in my hobbying career. Everyone was giving him a hard time about it because he was a prick and he was sore that he lost to a woman who didn’t give a damn if she lost or not.
Can confirm, only biological woman I've met that was into 40k was turbofixated into Magnus, but not Magnus but instead the TTS version of the character which she insisted was truer than canon and blah blah blah.
That’s kinda funny in a weird way. She had to be autistic, there is no other explanation of why she’d be obsessed with TTS. Probably ships him, poor fellow.
Huh....is that how I can finally get my wife into at least play testing an army with me? Good to know....
Just get her into painting and then maybe rpgs. Babysteps.
I missed that part. To be fair I’ve known of people that fit the the Reddit stereotype that unironically defend GW this way.
Oh no, with all these implied crack downs on fan content GW is planning, I hope they don't take down my Roboute Guilliman/Illiyanne Natase gay fanfic.
We all know his one true love is Yvraine. Rrrrrreeeeeeeeee.

Well, Gw is being ... well Gw, and all the youtuber retards being well, retards.

Arch has his "I'm so edgy right wing" thing and "If we take ww2 for a comparison" Forge World tier idiocracy.
Valrak is just blandest popular opinion loud repeater.
Majorkill and Gamza? Gamsa? Are just two idiots who think they are edgy.

Only guy I can tolerate is Baldemort because he usually does the "downs syndrome guy who really is happy with it" attitude that is still ages better than the wankery the centrists and flaming libfaggots throw out.

Sodaz is also a manbaby. When people don't like my fanmade stuff, I tell them that I don't give a shit. Chris-chan sempai has tought me well how to handle criticism. Ignore it. Still better an approach than reeeeing.

If jewtube was not so pozzed, I would make a real right wing 40k commentary just for the lolz and to see Valrak and Arch hug each other for safe space points as I gladly state: "Nazis weren't the bad guys, those were the commies. And they won."

Eh they can't go after Chinamen, so I can avoid their pozzed prices. FUCK BLM niggermonkeys.

As someone who worked with resin for years and has a friend who pirates FW i full-heartedly say resin is fucking gay and i would rather kill myself than assemble another resin tank. Just buy second-hand plastic.

Honestly, if feels like whenever I paint resin, even the expensive kind, everything just winds up looking off, no matter how much care I put into it.
 
I use clearcast resin for preserving snakeskins and fresh-dead turtle shells (when they still have color & patterns before the keratin scutes rot off the carapace); never realized you could make WH40K minatures out of it.
I'd imagine you could easily use it to replicate water for a terrain piece/scenery board though.

Does any of yall's resin feel rubbery though?

I guess it depends on the mix. I had a bunch of mk2 jump packs that were rubbery so i had to throw them away. Resin miniatures are really stiff and will break if you try bending them. On the other hand, you can soften them up in hot water and reshape them, like these cables for instance.
