With the advent of asks and an influx of new users I thought it might be fun to have a little list of questions for asks in the old tumblr style. You don't have to have an ask to answer them, though! These will be more skewed towards Warhammer (It's What I Know), but most should be generic! Questions under the cut.

1 - What is the first miniature you ever painted?

Old UM Tactical Marine from some Start Painting Space Marines back in like 2007. A friend got me the box when he was visiting Sweden.

2 - What is your favorite color name (like "Elf Flesh", "Pink Horror", etc.)?

Mechanicum Standard Gray.

3 - What part of the painting process do you enjoy most?

Shading - it's the first step where the miniature stops looking like garbage.

4 - What is the weirdest base decoration you've ever made that didn't come with a kit?

When I built Repulse the Repulsor out of spite, I constructed the base from plastic bits, bricks of sprue, and an orc hand I had leftover from Blood Bowl to represent how this flyer (not anymore, lol) crushes the ground with gravitic waves.

5 - What is your favorite non-standard hobby supply or tool (Green Stuff, MicroSol, homemade paint, etc.)?

Drill and copper rod combo.

6 - What is the edition or specific release of a tabletop game that you spent the most time playing?

Infinity N3.

7 - What is the most research you have ever done for a build or paint-scheme?

Probably my Krieg Kill Team. Eatched Duncan's guide on Kriegers for most colors and Peachy's for Vostroyan red, read on the German collar tabs and French medals, checked how the maps were marked in WWI... Never played a game with them, natch.

8 - What is your favorite model you've ever painted (does not have to be best!)?

Probably the C3 Drop Trooper I painted up as my YJ-born Aleph pilot/diplomat for Infinity RPG.

9 - What is the oldest model you still have?

See #1.

10 - If you could have one model regardless of rarity or cost, what would it be?

The Tomb King Necrosphynx! I even got into hot water for spamming the link to my gofundme to get the damn thing in game website comment sections some years back.
