This is a link to my blog where I have been detailing the process for making your own plastic minis.
http://proxiemodels.blogspot.com/ The troll is my first actual figure, and I am quite pleased to see some of the ideas bearing fruit. Prior to the troll I was just making tanks and stuff. Of course I have a very long way to go, but it has been a very nice challenge. Getting the fitments and layout of the models is my next challenge. If I can keep the machines running I am hoping to be able to make a lot of the things I want but are not available at a reasonable price.
It is really neat to be able to make huge armored formations for a small price. I can not wait till I get my infantry done- that army will be vast.
Just some info for any other extreme do it yourself types out there, if I can do it anybody can.
