Long time DOOM fan, new QUAKE fan - a question for the community

Hi all,

I'm a long time DOOM fan and most enjoy that game when I'm UVMAXing from pistol start individual levels. It seems most modern wads are built around this format, or at least accommodate it.

My question: in your view, what is the most fun way to play QUAKE?

Breaking down the question:

- traditionally, is hard the chosen difficulty for boomer shooter vets?

- do you prefer to play continuous, or do you pistol / shotgun start each map?

- do you save mid level / quick save/load or do you only save at the end of each level?

Now, obviously, there's play however you want, but I'm more asking what the general consensus is on the most fun way to play QUAKE.

CBM vs. KEISUKE | TEKKEN 8 at EWC 26 - One of the best sets in T8 history

I think this is one of the best sets I've seen in TEKKEN 8 so far. CBM (Jin) VS Keisuke (Kazuya). Just pure poking, punishment, reads, movement, spacing, and execution.

I haven't finished watching the tournament yet, so please don't spoil the result, but I really like the FT3 format of the EWC. It allows for more reads and more mind games; less bullshit.

Production update

Can’t wait to get the Graveyard Zombies and Beyithirr the Dragon.

I ordered Beyithirr from BBTS and am hoping to ship it to the UK - any other international fans ordered him from BBTS? I have a feeling I’ll need to use a freight forwarder like Stackry and reckon it’ll cost around £1,200-£1,400 when all is said and done.

What are you excited for from the list of updates above?

Mezco Vapor and Letterman - feedback welcome

I make my own dioramas and recently got into taking photos of them. I used a few lights and shoot with my iPhone 17 pro.

Any more experienced people out there fancy giving me some tips or advice? I’m happy with how this pic turned out, but could always improve it.

Edit: also worth mentioning that Reddit does not display in HDR, and this pic looks better on my phone in HDR.

Photo backdrops

This is a bit different for this sub, but thought some might find it interesting.

The pics above are test shots (no proper lights / tuned composition) of something I’ve been working on. All dios were scratch built by me, but I’ve come to realise I have often have “blank space” in my toy photography that I wanted to fill.

I used https://www.pexels.com to find high res copyright free photos. Had them printed on A2 (UK) matte finish paper and then mounted them on 0.5mm white foam board.

I think they came out great and I’ll definitely be using them in future toy shots.

What do you think?

Wooting Two HE key cap puller

Hi folks,

I bought my Wooting Two HE from the official site about two years ago and thought it was high time for some cleaning.

I dug out my Wooting box (I always keep everything) and noticed that there was no plastic key / switch puller.

Was this included in this run?

Custom art and availability of HitBox PC

Hi there,

My original Hitbox sometimes disconnects while playing TEKKEN 8. I've ordered a new cable from SmallCab (EU based retailer - I'm from the UK) to test.

I've also been looking at the recent HitBox PC edition and I have a couple of questions:

  1. is it currently in stock on the USA website?

  2. is the HitBox PC / HitBox Ultra essentially the same size as the original HitBox in terms of custom art? Loading the custom art template from the official website only has one size.

Thanks for your time!

Sparky Foreman

Loving the black and white edition. It’s great for lighting because it kinda acts as a blank canvas. He looks ghostly here, which really works with my log cabin dio :)

Aleister Gangreene

Finally got around to taking some shots of this guy. Tried to make him cozy by the fire, reading a children’s book.

Tuff Stuff!

Man, I love this figure. Looking forward to the throw back edition, but the OG Letterman has so much aura.

I love this figure so decided to take a couple of quick shots. The cape and Bruce Wayne sculpt are from Tony Mei on Insta.

Mezco always produce amazing figures and I’m so happy they’re doing BTAS at the moment.

Mezco BTAS + custom cape and Bruce Wayne head sculpt from Tony Mei

Mezco One:12 BTAS Batman: I love this figure and I’ve got two, so it only seemed right to upgrade one of them with a custom cape that fully closes and a new Bruce Wayne head sculpt. Not pictured are the custom trunks too. All from Tony Mei.

Fantastic designs all around :)

Used some Blood Red Army Painter speed paint to make the Rev’s weapons pop.

Why does 17pro macro mode only shoot in 12mp?

Thread topic? I have all of the settings set to 48MP, but the macro mode always defaults to 12MP.

Aaaaaaand he's gone! Love the new Letterman Throwback edition!

This mfer went fast (under 3 minutes by my count)! I got two.

The Afro and boombox sold it for me.

Who else copped? Who's hoping to get one at SDCC?

Deadpool PX exclusive - head sculpt neck plug

Hi all, quick question - does the Deadpool PX exclusive use standard sized Mezco neck peg / plugs? As a follow up, will the Deadpool PX head fit on the recent BTAS neck peg?

I’m buying a custom Bruce Wayne head sculpt for BTAS Batman and have found the above Deadpool head sculpt on eBay. I was going to extract the head sculpt neck plug and use it on my custom Bruce head sculpt.
