Blood angel Aerosmith wings maybe seriously cool idea with the lift though.

One of my all time least favorite bands! Aerosmith is a close second behind Talking Heads. I am more of a Ska, Reggae, Dancehall kinda guy.

Steven Tyler makes me want to punch unicorns in the face!




Oh, Thanks Pete!

Ska can be OK, as can some Reggae. Not sure what Dancehall even is

Was speed-viewing your blog, and saw briefly you were thinking of a train of some sort at one point. At viewing this, my ADD kicked in and performed marvelously, remembering a rather menacing 40k-perfect megadeathtrain from an obscure mecha-combat game i played years ago...
Gentlemen; BEHOLD!



Now, if this manages to give you any inspiration for some train-esque weapon, spectacular! If not, it reminded me how awesome fun that particular game was, and that I can get it for a dollar down at the gamestore...

Sweet train Thanks for the idea.


Roof is done, almost time for paint

I was thinking like Nate said some kind of railing or barbed wire fence.

Stay tuned and as always your comments are encouraged and appreciated, so fire away!

Too much epicness to comprehend for a mere mortal o.O
So much cool terrain (and I really like that you ad "how to" now and then, makes it more believeable that your are not just paying some former 'Eavy Metal Dude to do it all for you HA!)

Seriously though, epic work! I think I'll have to read the entire blog over again when I (sometime in the Dark, Grim Future) make a terrain set of my own!

Keep up the epicness, and consider me subscribed!

(PS: hmm, lot of "epic" in there... Think I'll have to check my medication now...)

Thanks for the EPIC comment I am flattered to say the least.


Make yourself at home and if you have a question about a certain technique PM me. I have been getting a lot of those recently.


Thanks for the comments and support.

I'd agree.

Maybe some sort of iron railings?

This is some top-notch fencing in this kit
http://miniart-models.com/35549.htm
I have a sample kit from IPMS that I need to do a review for, but I haven't done it yet.
It's 1/35- but look at the sprues...it is infinitely useful stuff at any scale.
However, I'd recommend getting 2 kits to have enough

Marty, are those pipes you use from a Hirst mold?

Thanks for all the great comments and tips guys. I really appreciate the feedback. I am still adding CoD bitz to help tie the piece in to the terrain. I am going to do a wire fence but my new job is kicking my ass, so it may be a while. :(

Your work is just getting better and better! so inspirational! I'm really liking the current project, iron railings would look cool but i'm a fan of barbed wire, so much so that I sleep on a wire bed frame without a matress strung with barbed wire, the Girl doesn't like it much, but when I attatch the car battery for a shockingly good time.... she comes around.

anyway, keep it up.
