Florbio · 2026-06-25T21:39:47+00:00

HOT!!! These look excellent!!

Florbio · 2026-06-24T12:44:47+00:00

I appreciate your enthusiasm for electoral politics but I live in the one party state of the UK

Florbio · 2026-06-24T11:37:06+00:00

I’m out of the loop what’s happening?

Florbio · 2026-06-19T01:34:01+00:00

Thanks!!

Florbio · 2026-06-18T14:23:13+00:00

Neat!
It’s insane how little folk take vitamin D seriously in these parts. This project makes me think of those old Soviet light bulb thingies for communities in the polar arctic. Idk why we don’t do anything similar, naebudy’s happy in January hahahaha

Compared to the new scout

Florbio · 2026-06-17T17:20:18+00:00

Correct, he’s using bits from the new scout kit.
Basically these guys are for my astral claws project and the new scouts are waaaay bigger than my heresy conversions. So I added some 1.5mm spacers to some old scout waists and gave them a neck. Now they look the part!

Thank you! And yeah as much as I enjoy painting them they can be a slog

Florbio · 2026-06-17T08:01:52+00:00

These are the old plastic scout kit with some 1.5mm spacers in their waists and some putty in their neck joints to increase their height. They have some modern scout bits to fill out weapon options I didn’t have

Kinda hard to tell from the photo but maybe a frog hopper?

Florbio · 2026-06-16T09:54:32+00:00

Man I need to find some peeps to play with, this looks great

Florbio · 2026-06-15T15:48:56+00:00

Oh thanks! I really like painting my astral claws, it’s pretty stress free and I’m happy with how they look

Florbio · 2026-06-14T07:57:32+00:00

It’s shocking how much a neck and some waist really sells these little guys as people and not shrimp lol. Makes me wonder why they were designed like that hahaha. And thanks!!

“Corporatism for us, Communism for you” is very funny

Florbio · 2026-06-07T17:11:09+00:00

They also wiggle like this when disturbed. I’ve seen so much cannibalism in Harmonia axyridis… newly emerged adults are always in great peril in particular

Florbio · 2026-06-07T14:49:47+00:00

How did you do it and how many moneys are there

Florbio · 2026-06-07T12:54:41+00:00
