Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Money-saving hint: rocks also take acrylic paint well.
I keep looking for Venator-shaped rocks, but no luck so far.
There are a few people selling resin prints of ships on Etsy. They are of varying quality, but this one seems to be the best quality.
But I get it, it's just not the same as the real thing lol
I've seen those. Shipping to Europe is often an issue (or at least expensive) and tbh, having prepainted, reassembled ships was a major factor to get into that game in particular. Also, those usually come without the additional stuff, so you need to buy a base and shield dials as well as some cards that might be missing from your collection otherwise (and which usually synergise well with the ships they came with). In the end you end up paying more for a ripoff than for the real thing when they were still sold. :(
