Forgeworld Eldar WASP warwalkers

I just completed these two items after a few months of fooling around with magnets on the weapons.  I had done the regular walkers previously, and thought that my magnet system would work on these as well.  Boy was I wrong!

Everything had to be scrapped and a new way developed.  This time, I even cut up tiny pieces of metal sheeting so that I would not have to worry about polarity.  Given that there are 20 weapons, that could be an issue!

Anyway, these are some quick shots off the production line.

Gamezone Empire equivalents : Mounted heavy Cavalry

These are metal miniatures from Gamezone which are obviously supposed to equate to WFB Empire.  I have a number of these that I can post.  Let's start with a musician:

Slaanesh Demonettes from Gamezone

Here are some interesting demonette figures form Gamezone.  The hero/champion mini was my favorite.

Forgeworld Blood Slaughterer

I did a pair of these vehicles in 2010.  All the articulated joints in the legs presented a huge challenge.  While it made them quite pose able, there was little or no strength in them... at least not enough to bear the massive weight of the bodies. 

So, I put a flying base support under each of them, and took all the weight from the legs.  That allowed me to make the fun movement trays for them!

World Eaters objective marker

This little project was another fantastic idea by Steve!  One of many really creative and fun concepts he dreamed up to make his armies extra nifty.

I enjoyed painting the icon in the background, using all manner of wild colors together to give it that crazy look of Chaos!
