Seconds after finishing my last Death Guard mini and triumphantly saying "I'm done" I dropped it, it smashed into five pieces, and fell into my dog's water bowl. I immediately started laughing. (feddit.nl)

Yo I actually super dig the look of it, it looks like a perfect set piece as a casualty of the battlefield.

[-] OurTragicUniverse@kbin.social 10 points 11 months ago

It really does. And it has the added authenticity of being naturally damaged as opposed to assembled to resemble damage, which can look really fake.

Have you stopped laughing?

[-] Styxie@feddit.nl 19 points 11 months ago

Please help me, my dog is very sick.

[-] Emperor@feddit.uk 2 points 11 months ago

With The Laughing Sickness too? This is serious. Stay where you are as it makes incinerating your block easier.

Post stickied for your dog.

Thots and pears.

"I bent my wookie" energy

I gotta ask, did you use model glue when assembling, or super glue?

[-] Styxie@feddit.nl 8 points 11 months ago

I see what you're getting at. Yes, I used superglue.

[-] roofuskit@kbin.social 8 points 11 months ago

Well that explains it then.

[-] LuckyBoy@lemmy.world 9 points 11 months ago

Looks cool, maybe let it be like that, paint some rust and use it as terrain decoration? Let it be a happy mistake

I think we've got to assume this is the result of a Tzeentchian plot...

After getting badly owned by my own hubris, I really should start collecting Thousand Sons.

You should definitely assemble a new scene with this one as a casualty on the ground! It looks very naturally damaged.

These are the occasions that make you strong

Edit: what a shame, you have an eye for the smallest details. Did you try re-assembling him?

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.ml 4 points 11 months ago

Well the paint job looks outstanding.
