somebodies been having fun with a cable maker.

I swear I can see that thing squigling. *shudders*

RW - Cheers man!


Gits _ Thank you sir!


Ramos - That just means it's been a while, not that I've been busy The ammo holds it's shape fine, there's a bit of wire in the centre of the resin to enable you to shape it.
I was a bit too heavy with the bends and split the resin - you can see the gs repair blotch - there's a limit to how much bend you can give it before the resin splits, but it's good stuff.


Awesome - Thanks, the wheels are just straight off some WW2 jeep, no need for skill


Yggs - Glad you approve, cheers!


ldd - Thank you. That's a fantasy orc torso balanced on a skaven's robes on top of an ork boot. With plentiful gubbins almost hiding the dodgy waist area
First one's nice and bright, let's see what happens next time...


Dr H - Thanks doc


graven - I thank you, and appear here today to grant your wish...


vik - Thanks for the compliments. I knew not everyone would like the bright wrigglies, then again, I have a feeling most people wouldn't enjoy looking into chaos As I've said, I had a blast with that guy, so there will be more in the future, some will be dark and gloomy, some will be bright, some will be icky....


neil - I said when I got it that someday I'd go crazy with it


KC - Just the response I wanted Cheers!


Ok, all good here, we had some fun with the rising water involving pallets, then makeshift gangways, then long walkways in order to get to dry ground from the pontoon, but no harm done.



Eventually the walkway was built through the gateway as the water was higher and the security gate had to be wedged open. Water rose for two days after this, then started receding, back to normal today. That sloping gangway is usually horizontal.

So a run on chaosy stuff at the moment, a brief change of pace. And as to those beauty shots of the tentiball:



Better pics and some other stuff over on my chaos blog if you're so inclined...

Love the tentacle ball mate... just spectacular! (also the shot of your gangway is pretty neat too)

understood


and that water rising.... that would completley put me out of my wits....oh my...

You got to love that tentacle, also Vik he is in a boat

I love that runway picture, It just looks so underhive!

And the tentaball looks perfectly disgusting!

You know I definitely imagined your boat to have more gunz than that.....

Well it is a bit of an occupational hazard, also at least he is in the right place if the water rises LOL

so monkey is a regular noah then

In a word YES

But does he have two of every miniature on his ark is the question.

i bet ...no... as no mini ever looked the same ...he is one of the rather not repetitive guys^^

Lol - Noah's GrimdArk...

I agree, the shot you took of the makeshift walkway is very Necromunda. Just need to replace the water with toxic goo and put a huge dome over the top of the general area.

Thanks guys, appreciate it all

Unfortunately I'm drunk in charge of a keyboard right now, and am gradually losing my ability to post sanely so I'll reply at a later date - hopefully the weekend

Water level is right down now, but has frozen over - I won't even attempt to figure out how to get pics off my new phome and into photobucket and then to here as that would probably end badly with utterly different pics posted So you'll just have to believe me

Drunkeness of frozen monkey bridge troll. Quality.

Sounds almost zen-like when you put it lik that you weird grinning reindeer you

ha ha ha ... A drunken noah collecting two of every mini available , priceless.. oop unicorns is his speciality

Ok some replies..(and that's all for this post..sorry folks )

Gits - Thanks a lot, I have a few issues with the way I failed to control the washes properly in a few places but I'm really happy with the finished piece - you can definitely expect to see more of these in the future


vik - knew you would I'm on a boat -water level goes up, so do I...what's the issue - although explaining that to the council when they were trying to kick us all out a few years back was hard work -
"You live on a flood plain"
"Yes, but we're in boats"
"No, you live on a flood plain"
"Yes, we get that. We also float."
"But you live on a flood plain"
"We're in boats...we float...if the water level rises so do we."
"Look, You live on a flood plain"
"Sigh. Yes. But we loat, we're on boats, if it floods all that happens to us is our view gets better....."
"You live in a flood plain"
Etc. etc. et-bloody-cetera....


ldd - Than you, you do don't you...so cute and squirmy
See...you get it


prototype - Cheers, to be fair, so does the inside of my place


Llama - Ahh, but mine is five berths behind me there....had to stand there so the barrels didn't obstruct the view


vik - No..... more naughty interests


ldd - exactomundo


vik - Someone been talking about my age again.....


ldd - ahah, found the kulprit


weety - Nope.


6 or 7 of some...


vik - To be honest I just have 5 stock minis, it's all conversion work


graven - Hmm, there's potential in that idea.......


Skalk - No huge dome, but trust me - that stuff is far closer to toxic goo than water.....


neil - No unicorns here.



I've cut all the horns off and sold them to Traditional Chinese Recasters.


Normal (hah) service should resume shortly... just received my Dreadball KS set, and there's some green-skins in there

I need to visit your boat.

'ware the cyber-pike and the robo-ducks..

Round 2:

That looks well sketchy. Mind your step Mr Monkey.

It's all good as long as I don't put the wrong shoes on when carrying laundry....

Is that the typical british christmas-weather? haha

I love the tentacleball btw, it's so cute! Oh and someone should definetely try to breed something like that for seafood

Nah...not typical...particularly mild at the moment...normally worried more about it being frozen over than flooded...


Edit:

Last year:

Is that your boat with the fancy prow??

I always imagine monkeys boat to be large and square looking - kinda like a floating bungalow.

Drink carefully then monkey that walk way looks dangerous when sober

Now where is the tentacle
