That's actually a great point. With D&D or Warhammer 40k models, you can easily make details shine by using a contrast method of keeping the nooks and crevices' of the model dark to create depth and then highlight edges with a bright color.

This definitely sounds like the method that was used to create the earlier armors.

99% of Velious armor looks like shit.

Baby diarrhea type of shit.

THAT bad.
As a Dark Elf, I'm extremely happy with the appearance of my SS plate set. But man, the Vindi BP is so good. It really deserves to also LOOK good.

I guess to some people; I wasn't offended, I just thought it was sad.

Why did you say "Go back to your cave homophobic troll." if you weren't offended?

As a gay, I was more turned on than offended by the image you posted. Also, as a gay, I noticed that you had it saved to your computer and ready to post. Wanna go hit up a leather bar with me?

See, now I'm implying that you're gay... the worst thing anyone could ever say to another person.

Now please let's get back to calling this armor ugly. I'll be on Grindr if you need me.

Context matters. In context, Chuckles is on a campaign to stalk me on the forums and post witty (in his mind at least) retorts. In context that picture was clearly not "hey it's great to be gay".

But sure, I'll fuck you but you're the bottom.

P.S. It also seems like a violation of the forum rules:

Quote:
Racism / hate speech
Racism and or hate speech, disguised or not, will not be tolerated. This includes slurs / derogatory speech regarding sexual orientation.
It seems pretty clear that image was meant as a slur against me.

Because hating people for who they are has no place here ... or at least it shouldn't IMHO.
