Converted Harley looks very cool Graven.

she iis a stunner...thats for sure...

and how did you do the skates? the pic doesn´t tell the full story...

and indeed... that was the biggest bummer since the starting of any post office...

Thanks matey. Here's the gs test. Still not sure about whether to do a gs hot Pant hem.

Skates are space marine grenades, cut 2/3 along. That's it!

ah.... now i see where the skates are developing to...
and what kind of hotpants hem do you want to make? hippy style? all ripped and threads showing?...jeans style?

also, will you create some wood grain on the mallet head?

yeah hot Pants hem!.. you taken this far already. it wouldn't be in your nature to hold back the insanity now!

@Vik:

Along those lines
@S_L - Oh well, if you insist

Harley ! Harley ! Harley !

(Oh, and nice use of 3rd Ed trees for Ivy's shelter )

That's doing the job, Graven.
Good GS-fu.

ah...now you´ve literally drawn me a picture
but isn´t there a suitable hem already sculpted on the mini...if my eyes don´t deceive me yet again? also looks like garters there too?

Thanks amigo, got to get stuff built for the Tower!

Well...

So not really. Need to gs out the creases on the inside thigh, too. Debating whether to try bending down the pigtails - or indeed lopping them off and replacing with straighter ones (csm hair plumes, methinks).
Thoughts? Need to get her built and primed asap, really, because I'm aiming to have her, Nightwing and Firefly ready for the Tower. *squee*

I'd think about using some GS to extend the hair she already has. Bend the tails down a bit and then lengthen them.

i see now...currently it is more skin tight pants...so then...yay for hotpants hem^^

and yep, these folds need to go, and as for the pig tails...i´m with red on this one^^

Red for the win! Seconded!

Ok OK

That's a possibility. Here she is gsd up:

Right o! I suffer for y'all... But wait! What was that in the background?


How cool is this?! The mighty DrH delivers! Much better pics in his blog but I'm so stupidly excited by this I had to share immediately!

Oh, and it's seriously playable:



So, state of my workbench :

As you can see one or two things going on the height of the cathedral and the Tower match nicely. I appreciate that a bell tower should be higher than the cathedral front but from a playability point of view this is practical and playable.

And some rubble around Firefly:



And the front:

Really should crack on...
Later,
Graven

I spotted it straight away.

Well the tower could have been much taller before it was damaged.

Glad to see it arrived safely. Looks great with the "proper" miniatures on it.

You see what you've been missing out on, Vik.

You see what you've been missing out on, Vik.

guilt is laying heavy on my shoulders...

i just today stumbled over your hellbrute...how cool...i need t have me sitting and doing some reading in earnest^^

Don't feel too guilty, we all go though spells with RL getting in the way.

You've only just seen the Helbrute? There's been quite a few things since then, but all in the one blog.

The tower looks great along with the rest of your terrain.

Did Dr. H actually deliver it? By hand? That would have been even cooler opening the door and expecting a pizza delivery person and finding Dr. H out there instead with some terrain (possibly made from a pizza box ). Of course then you'd feel the need to bring him in and play a game or twelve .

Plus old batman up there really makes a vision of a crazy old coot running around in batman PJs waking wishing noises.

LOL...that´s why this model really doesn´t do it for me...

and doc... i´ll catch up...i´ve caught also a glimpse of your jet bike...

now back to graven business

we now resume our normal programming.

Tbh it's always fun when a blog turns into a forum for random chat. Means it sustaines itself. I feel like I've achieved something

Anyway, here she is.

I definitely do not recommend googling Harley Quinn hot pants, BTW. shocking.

With her built, I just have one more of the current batch to do, the most notoriously difficult regular based model to assemble: Catwoman (it's her whip, apparently). This does mean the Gotham sirens will be done, however

So yeah. That is a pain.

Addition of tomcat to the base just cos

I think Street furniture will make it too busy but going to add some litter, I think (yes, cat litter )

you knew we would take a peek...didn´t you... wasn´t too shocked...

also...she needs to get primed asap...so we then can appreciate her in the fullest^^
so you went to the DE pig tails then...looking good, did you pin them?

also...the new catwoman suit/outfit isn´t really my thing...i really liked the michele pfeifer suit...that looked good, while it had one downeside...no hair shown...while usually i like goggles, i just don´t understand why they have to go with a catwoman costume... ok she´s a burglar and needs to cope with stormy winds on top of roofs and all that...hmmm

and cat litter....

Harley looks great!

What's crazy about delivering parcels dressed in Batman PJs...?

Oh yeah, I did also make the jetbike since then...and the UFO crash... anyway...

Googled immediately.

Harley is looking good. I liked the original pig-tails, but then the new pig-tails are good too... I just like pig-tails... I wonder what google has to say about Harley Quinn Pig-tails... Ooo

Good luck with catwoman. Addition of cat and cat-litter ( ) are a must.

Viktor von Domm wrote:...i really liked the michele pfeifer suit...that looked good,...

Best catwoman. Not just because it was Michelle Pfeiffer, but she had that craziness that I think works for anyone running about in a costume... wait a minute...

^that doc! the whole post^^
does anyone still remember thyphoid mary? i liked that nutshell^^

also... pig tails are gorgeous...the hair do ones...not actual pig tails...i know some prefer them as a wholesome meal...but...thanks , but no thanks^^

Thanks chaps for all the support I agree Michelle Catwoman is the best but I do love the Darwyn Cooke aesthetic also.

Gargoyles - does this work?


And from the inside :


Thoughts?

Harley is looking good Graven, nice conversion, hot pants for the win

Cheers mate. I'm really pleased at all the love she's getting between the pig tails and the hot pants. She's got her first prime on just now...

The gargoyles definitely work, I think!

I think the gargoyles might be too tiny. sorry. When i think Gargoyles I think big and scary, and something large enough for our hero to stand on and lookout over the city.

THose fit the spots nicely, but are more decoration than intimidating protectors.
