MedMos' WIP - the slowjuicer of Plogs

[MedMos]

Thanks, @Punktaku! I need the encouragement, things are heating up. I had some family responsibilities, and then we all went for a walk, just got back 20 minutes ago. But progress is being made, here's another quick wip.

Again, I might not have needed to spend the time to tie the sail with a quick-release knot, but it looks rather nice... Don't know how well it shows in the photo.
I'm also furiously painting the shields in the back-ground while glue dries. They won't be very pretty, but they'll do the trick.

The advantage of not going to the meet is more time to work on comp entries...

 

[MedMos]

I thought you had plenty entries, @Ben_S.

What's that Stalin quote? Quantity has a quality of its own?

 

[MedMos]

Right, on to the next comp, Mutant Freaks! I'm making Spiky McGee, of the McGee family. A scavvy with spikes, OCE edition.

Bits for a start on Spiky McGee

Ghoul as a base, with sprue to scratch build some spikes and an autopistol. Simples!

 

[MedMos]

Ahem, who left that unfinished comp piece lying around? Nevermind that...
Slow end to the hobby year, hoping to start out stronger! I got a new glue gun, so seemed like a good idea to move some terrain up the queue. Hive Guys wip.

Noice! Trash terrain is always the best terrain!

Noice! Trash terrain is always the best terrain!

Agreed! I had a crate worth of GW terrain already so I sorted through to re-use a lot for the Underhive board I painted last year (yay!), spiced up with all kinds of parts. But Necromunda terrain mostly / only made from dollar store items and things you'd throw in the bin otherwise has a very special place in my scaly heart!

Hive Guys looking good so far!

 

[MedMos]

Thanks, guys! I suddenly had a game last Sunday, which spurred me on to finish the thing. Pretty intense, as I built it and painted it in like two and a half days, including some final touches early Sunday morning before I left for my friends house. Last touch was the rusty splotches, which were added last night, but it made it to the table!

That ain't no grox, for sure!

Hope you like, I'm pretty pleased with it. I'll post it in the Hive Guys thread at some point too.

 

[Ben_S]

A game? What is this?

 

[Punktaku]

Don’t forget to put it in FYSC too!

@MedMos if you need them I think the Hive Guys logo etc is in here.

NCE - Posters, Advertising and Misc from the Troll

All manner of posters, advertising etc from Trollholme, Sump City and the THUNDERCUBE! Word File so you can scale the images to your own projects using the size layout option. The images are laid out so that they are quick to cut out, but if...

If you print on photo paper it looks like a store sign rather than a poster. Open in word so it keeps the formats.

 

[MedMos]

Thanks, @ClockworkOrange. I think I did print them years ago, but I wanted to make it more of an unlicensed burger joint, trying to draw customers with a brand name. I might still use the official sign, though. Not decided.

 

[ClockworkOrange]

If you do decide to use them you can resize them in word to fit whatever sign you’ve made, happy to show you how if you don’t know.

Either way loving the building made from junk, I feel like it’s a a slowly dying skill what with the advent of 3D printing and GW making so many scenery kits these days!

 

[MedMos]

I'll admit, I wouldn't mind some 3d printed wooden barrels and windows, for when I get more Mordheim terrain in the works. 40k stuff is more forgiving, medieval fantasy is much more recognisable.
That being said, I still have cubic feet of trash to still glue together, I just need to get that new hot glue gun fired up for real.

 

[ClockworkOrange]

The Troll has a large store of such things PM me your address and I’ll see if I can send you a Troll Aid package….

 

[MedMos]

I did a little bit of painting... Still haven't started my comp piece, things keep getting in the way. Anyway, here is a vampire I pieced together, and a bounty hunter that's been in the queue since the late 90's. By now, I'm ready to settle for tabletop ready, as I don't think I'm doing him justice at all.

 

[SuboptimusPrime]

Out of all the old bounty hunter minis, I always thought that one was the coolest, both for the pose and the sheer level of 80s-ness it oozes.

 

[MedMos]

Me too! I might have to have another crack at painting him, I just can't seem to get it right.

 

[Ben_S]

He hasn't come out as well as the vampire, it's true, but at least he's done. Better than not done.
