Quotes (from this video)
  • I
  • I was never super into the video game, frankly. So, I'm not I don't have the nostalgia for it.
  • I'm also not really into army games, so like the scale of it, not the physical scale of the models, but how many models there are is also not really my thing.
  • I always love making lore for my miniatures in Trench Crusade. It's just so interesting making backstory for each of them.
  • I love the new GW Cog fort model, but is anyone going to make a squadron and buy four of them at $210 a piece?
  • The white ones are definitely the type that don't take rattle can.
  • Shatterpoint biggest problem wasn't really the game. I think it was the feeling of the neglect.
  • That walking building sure is cool. Assume I can buy it and it's not totally sold out already.
  • Metal minis, that's a tough one. I'm not good at those.
  • Sets one and two are grim dark, but three and four lean into the Wim dark. Oh, I like the word whim dark. That's fun.
  • I'm going to be working on these guys, which are um the naval raiders from uh Trench Crusade.
  • It's such a fun world to build inside.
  • I'm probably going to paint these guys up and then when the plastics come out, I'll probably just redo them.
