Really cool idea with the base Vik . 'Shrooms for the win , always figured you might be hiding something vik.

i am hiding way more even... i have layers over layers of hidden stuff...i am an onion in modlers temrs^^

You could be a parfait! But I actually prefer onions.....oooo, you could be an onion parfait,with more onions underneath I'd try it....once.

I'd try it....once.

er...i am mildly confused....

Great looking base Vik, and I like the sound of that paint job, cant wait to see it.

I would eat an onion parfait once vik, not really to appetizing after I typed it.

Reminds me of pictures of people in Florida going under their house to pull out alligators and snakes. Don't know if you saw it in the news but a guy here in the states caught a 19 snake that was loose and growing in the wild. I dislike snakes.

I'm like Indiana Jones with snakes

Nice fungus Vik!

I've had lot of run ins with snakes. When I was 5-6 I was running around in our yard barefoot and stopped mid stride hen my mom screamed for me to "stop!", my heel was on he ground but my foot was just off the ground and the sound of her voice froze me where I was. Just then a copperhead slid under my foot, I would have stepped on it, but it's body rubbed giants the soul of my foo as it continued on, I just got queezy thinking bout the feeling again while typing this. When I was 8 we were at the lake of the ozarks going waterskiing. Before we got onto he boat another water skier wiped out near the shore, and hit a Nest of water moccasins. He died as he tried to get to the shore. We had snakes ll over our backyard growing up next to some woods, when m wife and I had our last house I was glad because here were no woods around for the snakes. But after every hard rain I'd be mowing the lawn and kill a water moccasin that got washed down to us in he culvert from the nearby ponds.

I dislike them very much, trying not t "hate"

Aw man, I have had snakes as pets, Boas and ball pythons, very smart ones too! they could even count the rats I fed them! so when one got bigger rats but just 4 not 5, she turned her head at me as if to "Stuff to you!" as the back of the head is the snake's vulnerable spot, but now I know a snake insult from that experience. Same snake had crawled on my head during a fever/headache and she cold compressed/Massaged the the pains away. It's us Humans who assume that every square inch of the planet is ours.

Speaking of counting rats, ferrets are good if you have aviaries and can train them to catch mice and not the birds. One quick nip to the neck, they'll dump it in a corner and hunt for more.

They really stink though...

I love em, but my wife (a biologist) is terrified of them. One time we were at a park that had a python and it decided to climb up the glass to measure itself against her (and yes, it could e eaten her comfortably)! Ah well.

Yes, Ferrets can be a little strong aroma to get used to, but if properly de-scented not so bad.

Ah, the wife is a biologist and afraid of animals, we have instilled in us a fear of snakes and reptiles, I subbed Reptus Minis for Chaos Marines for my Chaos army. But I have the old 30dollar codex, the newer codex looks nice, but hardbound an 50bucks puts me out

well here we are all pampered as there are literally no deadly animals fighting against us... and we don´t get the amount of guns here too... so what to do throughout the nights I ask ye?...we are a sad nation I tell you in no short order

on a totally unrelated side note...
I GOT A BIG SUPLY DROP BY THEO TODAY!!!!
materials and minis galore!

see for yourself:


wooden sticks...they feel almost sexy to the touch... soft and silken! I love them... will be very useful soon!


I first mistook these as PC Rods... but they are in fact cardstock rods... that means they will love PVA! which means I can play with them with little effort!!! and they come in lotsa different sizes! very cool I might add


when cardboard and wood gets praised...lets not forget about PC... this selection of cool stuff consists of granny grating, square tiled PC and diamond pattern and plain PC... and we know what wonders these can form, eh?


now some would say our fair theo is getting a bit insane... but who am I to argue...? right... he included some lamps and even a real searchlight...I need to make my own leagues searchlight I think ... also... those magnets...man... I didn´t knew how strong these were??? really... don´t underestimate these for a sec!! they are tough!...also I got that bunch of these red and cool and highly detaild rods he already got from dave!...wow... we´ve seen them getting some use in your thread already... and they are very versatile!. the whole selection is surrounded by chains... yeah... that will get some nice uses soon as well! and those nice small cloth pegs...!

enough?...not by far!



catachans galore... I even got marbo! he´s probably making a secret attack at the heart of Europe now^^...
by the way... o love those snipers...really... it is the most stylish way of getting rid of unwanted peeps




and these fellas finally drops my last walls I had built up to get me from making my own ´munda gang... these orlocks have a fething megaton of conversion potential! and the many weapon options they come with provide me with the means to make many cool and storytelling new models!... these models have places to go and other plastic soldiers to kill for sure soon enough! and that is no cheap postponed announcement... I will tackle my ´munda project asap... after I finish my current to do list... namely MW, temple, and brotherhood...then I will dive into the underhive

mannnnnnnnnyyyyyy thank you´s to theo for this cool care package!... I hope soon you get some good kharma for that awesomeness!

cheers, vik...(off to play with plastic men^^)

holy balls thats one hell of a supply drop glad to see some hobby karma come round to you vik!

cant wait to see what you do with those red things those things are awesome.

Theo has blessed planet Vik with many goodies! Now to see what Vik makes of it all and what new weapons or buildings he comes up with from it all?

yup...yup^^....*rubs hands*


well firstly... off top get the kids back home...then some^^

I got my karma last week , just took customs and the post office a few weeks to get to Vik. I was worried it had gotten lost in the warp, as I sent it a week before a package to Australia, and this came two weeks after that arrived. Vik is truly deserving of the love, he is always blessing my thread and everyone else's with his presence, insight, and most importantly the drive to make us each better.

Now to sit back and watch the magic happen.

That is a nice haul indeed! Hobby karma FTW!

Scrolling fast, this pic looked like fireworks.


Funny part is the first thing that came to mind wasn't "wait what?" but "what's he going to do with this?".

Nice selection of bits and pieces you have there Vik, I wonder what you'll build....
I would say the possibilities are endless..ish

Theo that is a generous drop Vik you lucky lucky sod first you got a Sly Marbo and then the necro plastics those pistols arms are so cool.

Yes it was, Vik has to make something cool now eh?

yes.... me <--- i am a really lucky bugger, eh?
i will use everything to greatness... you can all be sure of that!

and theo... customs took ages i think... but in the end i got a seal and no charge... so it was toll free for me even... call that a super sweet icing on an already sweet cake^^

i think whenever i sent and receveived something from america it always is a so so situation... somehow it is not the distance... stuff from australia...namley vic miniaturs has traveld with godly speed... once everything was stuck at customs... and took almost like a month... then the next one took less then a fortnight...? i really despise customs... they are a scurge to traffic!

at LDD... indeed the arms of the orlcoks are stunning... these will be the biggest foundation of my gangers... i just need to find a cool theme...(in my mind i also dream about a gentleman gang of steampunky lards... but with my current range this will take some more time...now i will need to find some nice inspiration for a conventional 40kish gang with a nice twist...?)

I am sure you will come up with some weird and crazy scheme, plus you have the parts to play with that concept now

i want and need to start with some munda stuff... really there was never much doubt that i wouldn´t move to that field, now was there?^^

Catachans, materials, a gang?! Vik.. you are ready to impress me.
