Hey all,

Finally happy to say this one is complete after nearly 9 months of on & off progress.

Wow! Looks gobsmackingly great. A true uber mek indeed, gork would be proud.

Awesome, awesome, awesome! Really love this fig, mate!

In particular the glowing effect on the gun, and the lenses also look superb.

Did I mention how much I love that Squig?

Very nice looking model just a shame the camera makes the poic blurry.

I love the squig!

Thanks man! haha glad you still like the squig Still trying to perfect the glowing effect but my airbrush is always on the fritz and sputters a lot.

Yeah, I probably spent a week trying to figure out the camera settings. It seems to be an issue with either a: the iso is set too low and picks up on the samera shaking when I push the button (even though it's on a tripod) or b: when I zoom in it creates a wierd depth of field and focus on specific points rather than the entire model. It's a pretty good camera but I honestly have no clue how to fix it.

Thanks man! Tried my hand with green stuff to model some augmentations for him. glad you like it!

So Orky... Waaagh overload... Must kill Oomies in name of Gork and Mork...

That's awesome. Superb work.

I haven't logged in for 2.5 years... But I had to tonight to let you know this kicks ass!

The squig and the grot are what makes it for me. Which is not to say that the rest isn't excellent work because it is! But i love those two in particular.

Has your camera got a timer mode? If so, use it with the camera on the tripod. That way there is no movement from the button being pressed (as you hand is clear when the shutter goes).

Beautiful work there, sir! Really love the colors. Thanks for sharing!

Superb!

Super delayed response here... I kinda thought this model bombed due to the bad pictures and didn't notice anyone else had replied. Just wanted to say thinks for all the kind words!

I actually hooked the camera up to my computer so I could take the pictures remotely without touching the camera. Not sure if the issue is my lense or what, but for some reason it focuses on one part of the model and blurs everything else. Only happens on this particular model but I think it's because the proportions are a bit longer.
