I think the concept for the blast marker is really good, though i do wonder how easy it is to 'read' for your opponent?

Have you tested them with someone else already?

you're right that they will be almost impossible to distinguish at a distance. Personally I'd of done the modeling and put a dice pit on instead (so you can use one marker per formation) or used another base shape (squares for instance). An easy way to approach it so they don't look like units now that that ship has sailed would be perhaps to change the colors of the side of the base from black to say, red? If you do some wispy smoke coming off the craters / bodies like you did on the objective that would also help to differenciate them at table top distance

I think I'd have done them differently if I've tested them before.




That is actualy really sweet!
I think square bases would have been the best option, but painting them with red or white should do the trick!
Thanks

Wow, love it

Superb army!

The idea for the blast markers is very good also! Although I agree that it could be complicated to "read it" from the distance. Maybe painting the bases with a different color linked to the number of BMs?

And yeah, I think the BM need some modifications... xD



Well; last night I tryied to create a Biovore, and here it is.









It's really simple, but given the scale I think it is good enough. What I don't know, is if it is just to big, or more or less OK, because I've seen photos and they seem to be pretty big.
(The base is a Fleshborer)

This one is now being painted, but I'll share it right away; a Harridan!

I saw the Harridan tearing apart a Warhound on your blog and thought it was amazing!

Thanks!
I'm sorry the blog is in spanish, but I'd say it can still be useful to se the photos of the WIP

I'm in love with the Harridan, I want to finish it already! ><







even though... I worry the base will absorb all the attention from the Harridan itself

Love it very cool indeed but a bit of a shock using such a rare model for this.

Still it's going to be great once finished.

Don't you worry about that, it's just a cheap recast.. (more or less 6$, not that expensive at all)
