I may need to do a necron one of those endless portals. That would make for a heck of a display board centerpiece.

I really like the idea of the burned center of the pentagram with pumpkins all around it (maybe a few the worse for wear that were too close!) but wouldn't say no to a vine-based pentagram made of pumpkins, either

Well, I have a bit of time to mull it over. I want to get the figure painted first so I know what kind of colors I need to play with in the basing. Great ideas here guys... thanks for giving me a lot to think about.

Public Service Announcement

Hello friends!

This missive is to let you know that for the time being, my 5 P&M blogs (Mantis Warriors, Bad Moon Orks, AdMech, Halloween themed Chaos and 30k EC) will have all their updates appearing on a single blog (my “Rebuilding the Mantis Warriors” blog… which will get a new name). Why? With my interests so scattered across multiple armies and terrain & the fact that I’m just not painting at the hundreds of figures a year rate that I used to… I’m not making enough quality posts to keep 5 different blogs going. I’ve got a few die-hard friends and supporters that still post… but not enough to build or maintain the community that has always been the strongpoint of my threads in the past.

If my circumstances change and I start painting enough to warrant re-opening one of the specialist threads, I’ll do so... they aren’t closed, just inactive. In the meantime, as of today (Feb 11th, 2017) I’ll be making all of my P&M posts (for all armies) on what has always been my “home” on DakkaDakka, my Mantis Warrior thread. I hope you’ll join me there for the latest updates!
