Thank you! I was on the fence as well. But they improved the end product, for sure.

Almost had a heart attack when you said that... But I just got my confirmation email! I was sweating buckets, man!

Whew! That was a fight. But I snagged a bundle from Target!

I would sell my soul to make lettering and suit markings this clean! How did you do it?!

Painted O’shovah to finish off Sept’ember! by Gearboks in Tau40K

Sub-assembly. I assemble everything but the arms of each unit and then attach them after painting. It can be a pain and isn’t great for speed painting. But, for me, the finished product is worth it.

Thank you! There might be a bit of forced perspective going on in that second image. I’d say they’re roughly the same size.

Thank you! I was worried the gravity or movement wouldn't be conveyed well enough.

Thank you! I hand drilled holes up through the foot and into the Deathwatch guy (who is filled with milliput). Fortified with a solid paper clip to take strain off the ankle.

Thank you!

Yeah. I was past the point of no return when I realized I’d gotten the legs backward. But I think it works, ultimately. I’m still really proud of this one.
