Oooh, bugs! Looking forward to seeing what you'll do with them.

Turkey day played a bit of havoc on my schedule but here's what I managed to get done last week.

Most of the bug reinforcements have been been based and primed. Behold them in all there primer splendor.

I saw these trees at Home Depot over the week. 21 trees in total for $6. From left to right you get 13, 4, 2 and 2. I ended up picking up 3 packs in hopes of doing a snow setup for NEAT IV.

Harriot the Harridan also go her base done and a coat of primer. I also started working on her 5 sisters.

Finally, these little guys are for a gag gift. They're about 8mm tall. They'd make good LatD mutant proxies. :P

Looks like I'll be making a trip to Home Depot.

A guy on TMP said they'd go down to $3 and then to $1.50 a bag eventually. So if you're close to one and can check in a few times a week you can cover a table for dirt cheap.

Even cheaper and dirtier is to just let one guy in your gaming group collect and pay for all the terrain. Attaboy, Dave, keep it up!! ;D

Just be aware that there's a service charge for all of this. It's usually a knock at the door at 3 in the morning followed by a punch to the junk.

So I can't post pics yet on what I've been working on these past couple of weeks, so in the mean time here's something I've been wanting to do for awhile, army pics!

All told, this is 10,150 points of Marines which I painted over the past two years (my first Battle Company was an Epicomp 2008 entry). I would have liked to finish them this year but it just wasn't in the cards (in case you're wondering I still want to do 3 THawks, a Reaver and Marauders, along with some rare tank variants "just cause"). So, rather than wait until I paint the tardy 1.5k, I'm cunningly going to distract you with these pics.

Dave,

One word " stunning " that army looks amazing and the detail really brings it all together especially the shrub/bushes on the scout stands. The green armour and the desert terrain makes it work aswell! very impressed also having wanted to know what scale those landing crafts where myself and after seeing one next to a GW dreadnaught im going to getting myself one of those crafts fro a project of mine!

Great work ;)

Regards epic
