@Mr Dog,: Tank bike is tempting me with its whiley wiles to come and play with it!

Large back packs are a definite waiting for inspiration.

Hand held power klaw alternatives are a nice idea.

Is this a subtle way of asking for picture references

Hit that tank bike with creativity

I'm never subtle but also never say no to pictures - trying to give people what they want - always waiting for that spark that makes me want to create.

Now that is how to run a business sell things what a customer wants to buy, who would have though tit
I will have a look around for some pics then, I am glad the tank bike has been much fun for you, now if only you could share it with the rest of us

I can't believe it took me this long to find this. Your site is like a candy store. There is so much I want to pick up.

Oh, and another vote for flexible flames, maybe. Is this going to be like the black flames that the Bad Moons decorate their armor and vehicles with or the flames like the honor markings of the SM Salamanders? I'd buy both, especially if I can recreate raised relief on my Sallies' armor.

I would like to point out that the weapons sprue does not actually have an AK-47 on it.

@Dicrel - Thanks very much I look forward to furnishing you with my wares.

Looks like a sample pack of flames is in order!

With the reorganization of Zinge Industries I will start advertising and raising brand awareness and other such management speech.

@Mc Ninja - you got pm

I have been at work and getting slow in my old age now where is my bike

I did! -you told me to piss off and go buy model chain!

..But those are badass! (of course my order probably shipped already eh?) Great job man!

Hey Kit, how long are those sections of chain?

100mm each

Plenty big. Thank you!

Oh zinge, you are a genius.

I havent yet made an order, much to my surprise, but you're pretty much guaranteeing that when i do it will cost me a metric fethton.

Any word on flexible tentacles or mechadendrites?

I'd also love to see some mechanical tentacles to replace the whips on my Wraiths.

Wow, excellent idea and execution Kit! I'll most likely grab some chain and a few other parts soon! what else can you tease us with?

Vitruvian XVII: Any word on mechadendrites?

Count me in for those aswell!

Thanks guys - Cold showers for ouze and kroothawk I fear. Must be something in the air RSJake's thread seems to have also descended into childish inyourendohs and youformeisms

Ok I think a pack of mechanical and organic tentacles is on the cards (some already in the works) - please submit ideas here looking for a pack of 5 or 6.

As for teasers not much for a week or 2 as I get some ducks lined up - Ribble Rumble tournament at the weekend - army is looking a little rough - no trophy for me this year :(.

Cheers

Personally I'd rather see a pack of mechanical tentacles and a pack of organic ones rather than a mixed set.

Maybe a couple of 4" ones, some 2" ones and a couple of 1" ones?

Organic:
1x 4" organic tentacle, 2 rows of small suckers, textured back
1x 4" Organic tentacle, 1 row of suckers, styled with small radial teeth
2x 2" organic tentacle, 1 x1 row of suckers, 1x2 rows
2x 1" tentacle, 1x1 row of suckers, 1x no suckers

two rows are common in nature, whereas a single row is quite common in fiction, and allows for more detail on the suckers. For the mechanical ones, look at what can be done with the masq-mini tube tool and Green Stuff Industries Tentacle Maker - it's not worth copying directly, but looking at what people have used them for could serve as valuable inspiration.

An idea for the mechanical ones could be to have fairly generic flexible bodies and a sprue of hard resin attachments for them

Those chains are genius! Must pick some up soon!

Id like to see organic and mechanical separate as well personally.

Some reference images:



I think something styled after tyranid tentacles, to use for lashwhips would make you a hell of a lot of money:

Every time I look at this thread, I envision my wife hitting me over the head with a pan after seeing what I've bought. I'm going to go hide the pans.

Dammit Kit, you could have come out with those goddamned chains a few weeks ago.

Now that I'm onto the painting phase of this charity build, it's a bit late to go back and bling out the Chosen with chains.

When will the new stuff hit the store got some cash coming my way burning a hole in my pocket
