They "hated plastic" for being low on detail - which it indeed was back in the day.
It relies on a completely different casting method.
By comparison, "resin" is cast in a very similar way - and flaws attributed to it are largely just quality control issues that GW had back in the day.

I'm fine with the more traditional, lumpy metal casts.
It is specifically the combination of extremely sharp detail - and metal - that does it.
(I'm priming with a brush, so some materials just do not work)

Additionally, some Infinity sculpts want to overhang from the base (bad when metal).

I would compare coding with the task of compiling a grocery list.
It comes in two steps:
- determine what you need
- write that down
And there is no way to outsource the second task without also outsourcing the first.

I hated their metal so much that I am now only ever buying pirate replicas.
It does not work with these abundant sharp edges and tiny holes, primer fails to properly grasp the surface no matter what I do.
No such issues with resin. Lighter, and easier to glue.

More importantly, poll results are strongly affected by the questions' wording.
In many circumstances, a given person does NOT hold an opinion – they make their mind while thinking about the question.
So yes, this poll shows that poll results are affected by the questions.

I just never played it before.
All I know is that it is some kind of shooter.

Heya... so my gigs seem to have dried for the moment, last one was on the first half of last month and I haven't gotten any new commission going my way. I'm getting short on HRT so if anyone would like (And only if they can afford it without putting themselves in danger) to donate I'd appreciate it.

The same wreck, with a little black mech standing next to it.
The mech consists of backward legs, clunky body, and a large cannon attached to its side.

A group of three mechs of very different sizes, all black, all with chicken legs.

The smallest, shown separately from behind.
It consists of a large rocket system on spindly legs, with a cockpit in front and a red barrel in the back.
There is a step ladder on one thigh.

Another tiny mech - this time, on scratchbuilt legs.

As a miniature enthusiast, I'm of the opinion that ALL artistic pursuits that involve large objects (monumental architecture, for instance) can - and should - be done in small scale.
This would satisfy the artistic urges, and leave the reality functional.

This is actually why I am not sure which was they were originally intended to go. :D

No.
I could carefully cut at the waist, but there's some lighting effects that correspond with this specific position.

It shoots rockets.
The upper section is the same as on another robot before.

What does the "region group of centralized state thugs" have to do with the fact that the invading army... wants to eradicate their people?
They are fighting to defend their home. Quite literally.
I'm not sure what the fuck is wrong with you.
