Oh, can I have the smallest one?
No, I mean the tiniest.
Argh, no, THAT one (points at speck trying to make a run for it)
@giantmaneddie I dream of the day 3D printers will allow for the level of detail we see in Docop’s pic!
@blehb I come from Space Hulk which is a really frustrating fun game that dates back to before Games Workshop got greedy. Armoured marines with angelic names purging heretics called to me hehe.
Some artists are modding their Phicen dolls, some look really life-like (the default heads are uncanny-valley territory). I’m really curious about the “skin” feel. I’ve seen people use them for all sorts of… things. Personally, at that price point I’d be VERY careful with what I do to my dolls, hehe (that’s kinda meta, I wouldn’t want to break my SW either).

I’ll be honest, I’ve been thinking about trying my hand with WH40K miniatures.
Sisters of Battle and Astartes are both solid choices. I’d say the Astartes are a bit more beginner-friendly in terms of rules. Just stay away from AdMech. If you’re unsure about the game and maybe want to test it before diving in fully, I’ve heard great things about the starter set:

Or if you have friends that can show you how to play, that’s even better. Oh, and get ready to spend quite a few $$$
@blehb said in Giants or shrinking?:
I love the intimacy of it - like I’m some sort of secret or possession of theirs.
That’s an important aspect to explain why I want to remain normal size while I shrink my victim or loved one. Being a giant is a different experience, one where intimacy is much harder to achieve.
In regards to how these relationships are tagged, I usually just refer to the bigger person as the giant
The classic, “Oh no, I’m not a giant; you’re the one who’s tiny, my dear.”

Like peeling a hard boiled egg.
Or a little shrimp, hehe.
I don’t want to rant and rave about WH40K but I’ve been playing close to 20 years (+/- 25 if you include 2nd ed. Space Hulk). I bought, and sold, many different armies for many editions. Back in the days, I tried to paint my own minis. LOL. After that epic fail, I commissioned people to paint them, but now I have my own slave teenager at home who has infinitely more artistic talent than I do that does it for free.
My figurines collection started without me even trying, just slowly bought over the years, collector editions games and blurays. I have superheroes, video game & anime characters, all in the 4" to 12" range. I should get my collection properly displayed, still a bit so self-conscious. Speaking of, the next thinkg I’m after is a Phicen doll, they are 10" high which is still too big for my taste but apparently their “skin” is made of this soft silicon which feels human to the touch, and seamlessly covers their entire body (again, feel free to judge me people - I’m still really curious to hold one! )
Yeah there’s a definite lack of “normal sized” tags (or tags in general) in the community, not only on this forum but elsewhere. I don’t want to change my own size, I want to change other people’s size, of a specific gender (females), and in one direction (smaller). There is no way on profiles to properly indicate this, it can get pretty confusing. Throw in the multiple size and gender identities, switchers and everything in between and it’s a mess.

Sounds like you’d enjoy I’m A Virgo
I loved the show but ugh, in a scene where almost everyone shrink they couldn’t even show more than 0.8 seconds of SW content? Yet they showed plenty of SM? I do love those makeshift clothes though
@Olo The Aints? No way, I’m a Miami Dolphins fan for life (I like pain ).
@blehb Armour can be fun to take off from tinies, in a weird sensual way. It’s hard to explain but removing soft clothes is one thing, but removing heavy ceramite armor pieces? A bit of effort to get to my prize
Sadly this isn’t a mini painted for tabletop gaming (those are much smaller, 1:48 scale), it’s a miniature “doll” for my collection. Yeah, I know, I have dolls, judge me all you want hehe
I don’t have Battle Sisters in my armies but Saint Celestine calls to my heretics-purging, righteous-fury-Paladin inclinations. Also, bonus points if you can guess why I love the Adeptus Sororitas so much? Here’s a clue:
@blehb I love amour, the heavier the better. To be fair, armoured tinies can be fun too! I might have bought an 1/18 scale WH40K Adepta Sororitas, and even at 4 inches tall she’s pretty badass (and yes, the company is really called “JoyToy”)

@foreverlurk Luckily, in defense of the article, the experts and personal experiences state it could be from more serious childhood experiences, OR something as innocent as a TV show. Which I think is reasonable.
Hehe seriously some experts really like to claim we’re all from the same basket. I guess my point is more that they are inferring the actual cause as being related to those TV shows or traumas, or some parental issues growing up. Their sources are non-existent or purely based on their own observations, aka “trust me bro”.
To be fair judging by the doctor’s TikTok he seems mostly versed in the shrunken men/giantess fetish.
It’s one of the better articles, for sure, but unless I fail at English it does still seem very focused on giantesses and shrunken men?! Which is perfectly understandable with them being the majority and all, easier to tackle for writing about it from a normie’s POV.
I’m always puzzled by the experts takes on this (Joe Kort). I feel that correlation != causation should apply to “I watched Land of the Giants and it made me a size fetishist”. I think they got it wrong. Maybe it simply awakens something pre-existing, sleeping inside your mind that just so happens to react to that stimuli?
Like, I had no childhood traumas, no dominating father or mother (she was 4’10" and sweetness). While I did enjoy watching size content from a very early age, it was more a consequence than the cause of my fetish. I surely didn’t feel the desire to dominate my parents growing up, and yet here I am. I honestly don’t know beyond “I’m wired this way” or “hurr-durr me likes tiny woman!”
I still lament the lack of serious studies on the subject.

Somewhat related, but has anyone noticed the increase in “switches” recently? I
I know! It’s like almost everyone is a switch nowadays (and/or bi, but I digress). All the more power to them, I’m low-key jealous but I’m sadly stuck with my “cishet-normal-sized-dude-who-likes-to-shrink-down-ladies”. Doesn’t roll off the tongue, there should be a word for that.
@littlest-lily You’re right maybe I’m mixing that previous ping with the pinned message yesterday morning on the #general-chat channel.
Either way too last minute for me
