NOT MY FAULT !

 The model today is really Roger's fault, which means the delay on getting my first Monster May(hem) post up is also his fault ! LOL The other week when I showed Jaxxon, Roger said was I going to do Amaiza, which was one of the others in the group, that Jaxxon was constantly trying to chat up, now before you see her, you have to remember it was 1977 and Marvel were renowned for not covering the ladies in proper attire.

As you can see high heel boots, short shorts and bra isn't really going to do much in the order of protection ! LOL 

I have actually been working on some monsters, I've got 3 of the 5 claws finished sculpting on the Gnarloc's so hopefully they should be finished soon, the monsters I've ordered should arrive mid month, hopefully I have enough time to paint them. I have however finally finished sculpting a Gigan Brute, this has been in the background for the last two years, with the odd bit of work every now and then.

The premise I had was in the Alien franchise they keep using humans as the basis, but when you take away a humans weapons we don't fair well against predators, so this is based off a alien ape.

I've also started on a vegetation creature, I guess you could use it as a shambling mound or Fen Beast, this is going to be a swamp beast in my games, a creature that is made of vegetation, and as it walks around it picks up seed and spores which start to grow on it, helping it blend into it's surroundings, there will be two, with the same body but different arms and heads.

That's all for today, so until next time, stay safe, and have fun !

MAY THE FOURTH BE WITH YOU

 Yes it's Star Wars day again ( which is most days in my house) but this is the worldwide recognised one. Todays post could have been called Furry Nice, but I'll stick with the official one ! LOL First up is a conversion of Krrsantan from the spares I had from the Wookie warriors, I used one of the heads and a pair of arms which I had to modify, the rest was sculpted. As a character he fought in the Death Pits until he became a bounty hunter, his first Live Action appearance was in the book of Boba Fett, and was suggested by Azazael.

Next today is a full sculpt of Gunji, who was a Jedi apprentice during the Clone Wars, and survived order 66 and was returned to Kashyyk by the Bad Batch, which I have so gaming wise would add another scenario. this was suggested by Mr.Martin to do a Wookie Jedi.

Last today was a couple of Ewoks which I received as freebies in my recent order, now I'm not planning on doing Ewoks at the moment, but thought I would get them painted, so I am up to date with all my Star Wars models.

Here is a group shout to show the different sizes.

That's all for today, so until next time, stay safe, and have fun !

NOTHING BUT MAMMALS

 Recently, one of my customers asked if I could paint up some Burrows and Badgers models for him, obviously I obliged, especially as he has been patiently waiting for my hand to get better so I can build his scenery requests. First today is the white mouse which apparently comes free with the rulebook.

Next is a Black Rat Witch, I did add brown and grey tones into the fur to match the reference. The spider I painted as a Red Widow ( yes it's a real thing who knew ! LOL)

Next is a Hare Warrior, I was surprised at how many different tones there are in a real one.

Last of the quartet is a Platypus, I had a bit of fun with the fur cloak, doing different colors, and also symbols on the inner side.

Here are all four for a size comparison

These were a great change of pace from my normal models, and they are already at my customers, for them to start enjoying. 

Tomorrow is the start of Monster May(hem) over on Keith's blog, if you want to join in the fun, just pop on through the link and leave a comment, and also your blog address. I'm hoping to get some of these Gnarloc Riders finished, and I've also ordered a couple of Star Wars monsters in case I fall short at the final hurdle getting these sculpted ( been working on these since last year ! LOL)

That's all for today, so until next time, stay safe, and have fun !

LESS SCREEN TIME THAN ME

 Yes todays trio collectively spent less time on screen then I did ! LOL So first is another pod racer, Clegg Holdfast who is a Nosaurian, left off some of the finery to make his clothing look more everyday.

Next is Gasgano, who is a Xexto, for this one I left off the headgear, for walking around the streets.

Here is a group shot of all the racers so far.

I now have the seven that didn't even get a second of screentime left to do. 

Today I can call time on the patrons of the Cantina, as I have the last one finished.

Wanted to make sure he lent on the table, as in the screen shot, the head started as a GW Imperial Guard head, but the rest is greenstuff over wire frame, on one of my stools. That's all for today, so until next time, stay safe, and have fun !

HATE IS A STRONG TERM

 Today I have the second half of my recent purchase painted up, now these are characters that are disliked for one reason or another, mostly their actions. First today is Qi'ra, she is second in command of Crimson Dawn under Maul, and was Han's first love, but she chose power over love. The model is a 3D resin print.

Next today is Cid, she is a Trandoshian female business owner, of questionable reputation, I thought the model would do as a business owner on Tatooine. Also a 3D resin print.

Next today is Wato a Toydarian scrap merchant seen in Episode one and the owner of Anakin Skywalker, he has very low morals and is only interested in money, there is a current theory that Darth Vader killed him, so he could still be around in my time frame.

Dai if you are reading this bit just skip down to the comments from here, there is nothing to see my friend.

Has he gone ? Good, right if you asked most people who is the most hated character in Star Wars, they would probably say Jar Jar Binks, but if you are older and read the original comics, then they would probably say Jaxxon, who was a six foot tall green rabbit ! His actual species designation is a Lepi. When the original film had finished in it's comic run, Marvel then had Luke trying to recruit on a water planet, and Han on another desert planet, Han ended up playing out the Magnificent Seven, recruiting a bunch of people to save a village and Jaxxon was one of them.

So why did I get this 3D print, bit of nostalgia, plus it was a character I could put in games and wouldn't mind if he gets shot ! LOL and if Dai decided to keep reading here's a picture to keep you happy mate.

Mustn't forget my group shot to show the sizes.

That's all for today, so until next time, stay safe, and have fun !
