Blue skies...

Yes, more blue guys.  Two by two, hands of blue...

These were certainly some hefty hunks of metal, as all the command figures were!

The ghost of bases past...

Here are some images of bases I made ling ago for some terminators (pics coming tomorrow) using some very simple materials.

Nothing terribly fancy.  Just some cork, some bits, some glue, some grass, and some paint.  I have made some bases that are so incredibly complex, I forget at times that even very basic stuff like this can be effective.

I guess I am after very specific themes with my bases, trying to set a story for every army.  Obviously, these are quite generic, all purpose stuff.

Still, basic can still be purty! :-)

Still feeling blue?

Well, exploring through the archives I found a ton of Smurfs!  Just in time for a new codex.

I will start with some command figures, and then move on to some terminators.

I had lots of fun with this base!

One more time

Here's the last of Cathy's Malifaux.  Some of you might recognize the barrel.  This was something Cathy sculpted a while back, and it was the inspiration for a part of one of the basing videos.

Ironically, this barrel turned out to be almost the exact size of Cathy's sketch, sight unseen :-)

So, all that needs to be done is some painting!

Another Mantis...

That time again folks.  Time for another Mantis Warrior from Raging Heroes.

Still working on more of these gals!

I think I will also try them in a different color scheme...

These skinks have a buddy or two...

I guess it's time for some group shots!  This time, on another one of the decorative plaques that I made.

Originally, this was created for a unit of cold one riders.  That was for my first Golden Demon comp in 2007.  I remember that unit getting a silver.  I used this plaque for some Salamanders at Adepticon a few years later, and the won a Rogue Demon.

I have always liked this plaque, but didn't use it for group shots such as this.  Time to rectify that!

It's very cool to see units off of the movement trays and gathered together in this way.  Of course, having an entire collection of LED daylight bulbs helps this sort of photography in more ways than I can describe.

I will go through more units like this.  Lots of fun!

I hope you folks don't mind :-)

So, onto something else!

Mantis Warriors from Raging Heroes

Back to some Mantis Warriors, this time from Raging Heroes.

I have some more of these that I have been working on for a while now, so hopefully those will show up soon :-)

Here she is with one of her sisters!

An entire unit of these would look very interesting out on the table...

More on the way...
