That sounds like a neat idea! Anything in particular to start? All I can think of is a sofa made of Space Marine arms.
I made a little lamp stand from some tau bits!
Now that you mention it, Tau does seem to be a good pick for scenery bits. Must be the blockier and smoother models.
You used a fire warrior head, didn’t you?

Ah, that actually would have been a neat way to do it, maybe for next time.
Here's what I put together.
A bit wobbly.

Work continues on the Cronos portion of my Talos/Cronos horde.
The Cronos paints up alot faster than the Talos. The tentacles look like they should be really time consuming. But they're sooo much quicker to do than all the bitz/details on the Talos arms....

It looks quite nice! Wobbles a bit as you say, but it goes very well with the table. Nice job!

Finished off the misc bitz on 1st Talos squad (carapace capacitors, spikey stuff, skulls, the little stabby side arms & the tube things on their bottom)
Got all the arms & tentacles finished for 1st Cronos squad.

Playing D&D, pining over the models I wish I had time to paint during the work week, and cursing the fact that I have to commute so far for a job I actually enjoy.
...and maybe also ordering some fresh not-AdMech models.
"At the point in time when bullets can pass through the interdimensional walls. When firepower takes up the entirety and eternity of space and time, all beings stuck in a neverending life and death cycle as bullets recover and destroy their bodies in quick succession. No one is able to think about anything but the sheer force of the bullets rapidly flying literally everywhere in the materium turning the warp itself into nothing but a sea of semi-automatic weaponry.. Then there will be enough dakka. Or, at least almost." -The Glorious God Emperor of Mankind

I just finished painting the standard bearer for my Ellyrian Reavers, too knackered to do photos so that'll have to be a tomorrow job. Need to see if I can download some old school paper banners!
Little bit more misc work on the Talos/Cronos project.
Built & primed Drazzar.
Color coded the officers bases (gold/silver/copper) for the D&D pirate ship crew. The PCs have been aboard the ship long enough by now that they'd naturally figure out the hierarchy.

Today my Spindle Drones & Bore Wyrms did enough work to earn their paint.
So in addition to yet a few more tails and tentacles for my Talos/Cronos force.....
