Finally built:



Lagging a bit. Not sure I'll finish by the deadline, but I'm having fun anyway!

YB

cool "scythes" and the mandibles look awesomely detailed!

Very nice work YB. You can finish, if you put your mind to it.

Great work both of you! That termy looks fierce, I hope you finish in time.

Huzzah! I finally have... a pile of bitz to show.



Hopefully I can get an assembled shot today after I have cleaned all the resin up a tad.

Wonderful! Looking forward to seeing what comes of it CC.

Hmmm... I guess I'd better get my *ss in gear and start working on those trophies.

Good job Lazarus. I like the mantis on the shoulder pad.
He's very black, are you going to highlight him a bit?
and I think the green could do with a little depth, maybe a dark-ish wash?

Spoiler:

Sorry to drag up something from a few pages back, but since he fell and has been remade, would you mind if I borrow a bit from this model Medium? I got my hands on some iron hands bits recently and absolutely loved this build

Great work on the entries everyone!

An actual model shot is needed I guess! Built the guy and added some bits but it doesn't really seem like I put enough effort in? Thinking I might add some GS details and something on that plain bit of torso.



I also ended up with three whole days off work in a row next week so I plan on being finished soon!

Oh man... that's cool!

That's bits from Anvil right? Looks great.

Yeah, Anvils stuff is great.
Already have several Anvil bits, and the Bad Santa.
Will happily order from them again.

Here's my entry for the Mantis Warrior comp, I wont get the rest of the squad finished in time as I'm moving onto the Infinity comp next.

Oh and I hate freehand



Please click for a bigger image and voting would be great

Sweeeet! Great looking banner and I love what you did with the sword.

This mini is great GiraffeX
Love the sword as well, great choice.

Very nice Gir. It was wonderful to have you supporting my little competition. Thank you.

I'm entering that Infinity competition too. I'm expecting to get completely humiliated based on the quality of last year's entries.

Nice work Gir. Interesting take on a mantis warrior.

Great job. For someone who hate free hand you seem to be awesome at it.

GiraffeX's entry is brilliant. Also really liking Yellowbeard's termie.

Beautiful, subtle work there mate!

Really digging the Anvil model. Might have to check them out. Giraffe Xs' model is beautiful. Love the gritty look.
And YellowBeards is totally badass! I'd fill my trousers if that guy came running towards me Good work all round

Thanks everyone, I feel all embarrassed now

You should GiraffeX

Surprise Announcement!

Mrs. 'Splitta has decided that my "mini-trophy" idea is just way too pathetic for all the time and effort you guys are putting in. So she's going to throw in three batches of home-made chocolate chip cookies for the winners!

You lucky dogs.

I'll have to up my game... hmmm... *scratches head*.


SIX DAYS LEFT!

way to go mrs. gits that sounds like a worthy prize!

OHNO, here's hoping I can finih in time... there's still the wings, some detail work and the final carapace to do + painting :(

FREE COOKIES!!!


All competitions should have this grand prize.

chocolate chip cookies, sounds perfect to me

Ooh cookies!

Got the scene all laid out anyway and also had a little play around with some green stuff which worked rather nicely if I do say so myself!

Still have to add some details to the base as it is still incredibly bland but I will just post the rest in my own blog so as not to clog up this one.

Hmm, that may not have been the best angle to shoot it from, one of the drones is shooting and another is being blasted apart anyway. I'm sure it will look better when I can get my hands on an actual camera...

That looks very promising CC.
