The tesla coils are from epic ork shokk attack guns. not even sure they make those anymore. Should be easy to scratchbuild, though: ring/disc, 3 spherical objects and a small cylinder for each, and an optional connecting barrel. And the superglue was from ebay, it's industrial stuff, not normal superglue (I think). And no, I didn't buy it. Never will...
@Dave: Thanks! I have a lot of 1/72 scale infantry unassembled now, but I'll keep that in mind for when I run out and have some spare bitz... What would you want, in that case? I do have quite the intriguing bitz box., though much of it is not warhammer. I would love to see what you could do with stuff from circuitboards

and that is saying a world!

HAHA. Love the Segway. great work!

D

Edit: Spelling

Thanks, cheese! I am currently making a steampunk jellyfish, and the hardest part is attaching it to the stand! I found a way, I just need to be incredibly patient in waiting for the glue to dry...

Resistors make great scale containers I know that much

I've used them for explosives, before.
Also, the jellyfish is done, I will take pictures when I pick most of the glue off of my hands . I just hope it holds...

a jellyfish??? ok... i am intrigued... tho a bit in a weird way

Yeah, if it ever stays together. The thing came apart on me again! I really need to be more patient...

patient...yup

I'm moving on to the catachan artillery that dave suggested.
As a side note, I found an old coffee warmer, does the heat it generates have any model purposes? It's just like the one in this auction: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Lot-2-Household-Items-Coffee-Warmer-MEC-179-GE-Automatic-Timer-Model-8117-/390384211922
I was thinking something like this: http://www.the-waaagh.com/forums/?showtopic=12725&st=40 salt dipping, halfway down the page.
Or should I just use it for heating my drinks?

I suppose it could be used for straightening out bent resin pieces or keeping your decal water warm?

It can also be used for rivets. I can take my perforated metal, put it on the pad, then push a piece of sprue onto the metal, I can make uniform rivets! I will need a sharper blade, first.

oooh nice! did something similar with green putty and round granny grating.

I remember that. But with the melting sprue method, the rivets are easier to remove and use elsewhere. It wasn't my idea, by the way. It comes from some tutorial site. I just found a way to do it without the neighborhood ne'er-do-wells asking me for a "squib" (Apparently, it means cigarette...)

I have just started a daemon (nurgle) army! No pictures, yet, and I don't have the army book,,,
now for a distraction
look! tetris!



Edit: just remembered, The greater daemon is old, so I have a picture of him!

Don't ask, and ye shall still receive...

disgusting lil fellas... just what papa was looking for...^^

Good stuff

Thanks! Can you guess what each one was made from (the group of five are all the same base model)?

firstz guess was undead ...maybe zombies... but then i also think it could be kroot...

You figured out what I used for the unit of five, How about the greater daemon, herald (a really tricky one), and the lone plaguebearer?
Also, I finished a steampunk motorcycle. I am getting tired, so that will probably have to wait until tomorrow. Unless the pizza rejuvenates me (the smell may be all it takes ).

Edit: I meant that they were kroot.

What, no guesses?
Oh well, here is the bike I promised, and more!

for the greater demon... that´s got to be an ogre for the most part...

the rest you got to show alone again so to better see them and see what is what...

and wow... yes i agree that nid looks very good... gotta agree with the statement of yours... give it a slight wash and yer all golden with that one...

that swinging pose for Matt kingsley looks very badass!!!


and i like the steampunk sorceress...!!! very cute...

Thanks! You're right about the greater daemon, But I'm not sure you'll ever get the herald, and the lone daemon (now in a unit of his own) should be discernible from the pictures.
Here is a cryptic hint: Phoebe's crow. You already got the crow part...

could you just point out which minis we are talking about now? i like that guessing bitz game but atm i am at a loss about which mini we are talking about...

he is the lone plaguebearer



and the herald
[/spoiler]

Also, I'm making epidemius: his palanquin will be carried by four plaguebearers, and he will sit in a chair made from craft sticks, with his legs made from modified 1/35 scale legs from a tank. I was planning to do fly/screamers and maggot/flamers, but I can't resist the awesome of epidemius! Plus, I want a good reason to take nurglings.

ok...still didn´t use the spoilers... my guess is... the lone plague bearer was made from a beastman...

and the herald is definatly not a GW model with that cleaver...


after hitting the submit button i will open the spoilertags...

HA!!!!! i knew i could do it^^...ok... didn´t think it could have been from heroquest the heralds base mini... but i was spot on with the beastman^^

I made the cleaver myself. It's really fun to make blades out of plasticard!

Good job on the beastman guess, by the way!

the cleaver is selfmade? cool! i never would have guessed that... it looks totally casted...the three holes made me think of confrontation minis...

Thanks! I actually did the holes with a panel line tool. The edge was sharpened with a file.
