Does anyone have any examples of Space Marines/Primaris in a colour scheme based around Incubi Darkness/Kabalite Green? #warmongers
I was painting over the weekend for the Golden Troll painting contest, and my eyes were struggling so much. I think I might have to resign myself to this year being my last year painting “competition level” pieces ?
I’m not getting the finish and smoothness I want with this Magus, so I think I’m going to use it as a colour scheme sketch and start over. It doesn’t help that my eyes are really struggling to focus on details today ?

I’m trying to pick up a project I first worked on a year ago, and it’s a) fasciniating, and b) mystifying. I think that because I dind’t expect to leave it for so long, I’ve not documented how I’d got to the stage I was at, or what my intentions were. Was I still in the exploratory stage, or had I picked a direction? Did I understand what I was trying to do, or had I got things wrong?
Based on what I’m looking at right now, I’m tempted to start over.
“I’ve spent some time recently thinking about what I want out of my homepage. I don’t have a clear answer, yet but I’ve been taking some steps toward it. There are a couple things influencing my current homepage design.
First, inspired by Jonathan LaCour, I’ve been importing old Facebook posts into m…”
I’m really enjoying the redesign. I find it a lot easier to read, and it’s given me some ideas for overhauling how I present the information on my own homepage. Great work, Eddie!

“And while the vast majority of the panel was previewing amazing new models and people rightfully drooling over them, there was also an extended Q&A session. Now I didn’t record it or anything, but between the utterly useless questions (“When are you bringing back Squats?”) and the very clear personal agenda questions (“What are you doing about X thing in Y build and what’s the release date?”) there were a couple questions and answers that revealed things about the process of how GW thinks about 40K that I think were potentially interesting.”
“As we’ve been noting recently, the EU really seems to be bending over backwards to pass poorly thought out laws about the internet (sometimes, though not always, with the best of intentions).”
“The long read: When Aldi arrived in Britain, Tesco and Sainsbury’s were sure they had nothing to worry about. Three decades later, they know better”
This was a surprisingly fascinating read.
“Social network targeted legislators around the world, promising or threatening to withhold investment”
I was just doing a quick audit in 1Password, and I really wish services would stop asking for a phone number before letting me turn on 2FA.
SMS 2FA is insecure, and Facebook recently demonstrated why I can’t trust handing my number out for “security purposes” ?♂️
“Here’s a problem that *sounded* impossible… I almost regret posting the
story to a wide audience, because it makes a great tale over drinks at a
conference. :-) The story is slightly altered in order to protect the
guilty, elide over irrelevant and boring details, and generally make the
whole thing more entertaining.”
I’m not sure which version of the amazing new Abaddon model I like best: with cloak, or without. Both look amazing. Without the cloak looks more like every depiction up to now, but with the cloak feels more imposing.
I (finally) set myself up with an Azure account today, as I needed to research something about Azure Active Directory. The more I explore around the portal, the more I think I should really start figuring out Azure, because it seems incredibly cool and powerful. I know this is old news to many of you. I just haven’t had much opportunity to dive in to it.
Are there any good resources you would recommend for getting started? Let me know! I’d be looking at it from a web apps perspective (PHP mainly, possibly Node or ASP.NET), but I’d be keen to hear just as much about the workflows and developing for the cloud in general.

“I normally have a cooling off period before I buy new Games Workshop releases, as every miniature is turbo-exciting on first reveal and owning all of them is impossible. But the new Genestealer Cult Locus is such an instant classic he was not only pre-ordered but jumped to the front of the painting queue.”
“We just published episode 362 of Core Intuition. From the show notes:
Manton and Daniel talk about how IndieWebCamp Austin went, and reflect on the virtues of the diverse “open web” community. They react to a debate between Jeff Atwood & David Heinemeier Hansson about their purportedly different…”
