But I like the spike-sword! :P

I was thinking about giving him some sort of trophy rack. Maybe the 40k one with a squig?

I've been busy today. :D

I've built a few chukkas from scratch.
They're still work in progress, however.
I still have to finish the firing mechanism and add a few more details.



I'm quite satisfied with how they turned out.

Nice :) Orc war machines are pretty satisfying to make, not least because no matter how ramshackle they end up looking it only adds to the effect :P

Yes, that's a part of their charm. ;D
I think I'll call them " Da Old Squeaky" and "Da Spiky Stabba".

I also took a few photos of my early Christmas present:

D'aww! :D

It's actually an action figure called "Dragon fighter" manufactured by Schleich Toys.

I bought it at a local supermarket. It was on a major discount. ;D

It is pretty cool :)

I need to at some point basecoat all the things I have to paint, but there's never a clear dry day here at the moment and I have no suitable indoor spaces...

I do wonder what that tiny skull is from. Snotling maybe?

It looks like a tiny bit smaller human head to me. It just looks tiny next to the goblins huge head. :P

Yeah, I guess my brain was thinking small goblin => small head => even smaller head on stick.

A WIP shot of my giant cave squig conversion.
There's still a lot of sculpting left to be done...

Is that a triceratops/rhino head? I'm not even sure what that beast is, but I'm not sure it still counts as a squig... :P
