Erm..op.. where`s your stuff?


either being stared at dolefully, unpainted or stripped back into little pieces prior to assembly as various demon engines, feral orks, gargants, chaos titans ect.

basically, i've had an acute attack of real life, with a complication of disatisfactionitis.

it's 7.40pm on a saturday and I've just finished this lump of overtime. I teach tomorrow morning for two hours, and then put in another 6 hours of overtime. Then it's monday again. Real life has bit me hard. I'll try and get a photo of some wips though.

get your students trained up on cleaning and priming models that should save you some time.

Some toys turned into flyers or dropships. Apologies for the poor photo.

It was an old war planets component. The front (plane like) part separates from the round body.

A couple of Matchbox diecast flyers. They are still available and come in different colours. I added the turrets and some decals. The paint is the original colours with a little weathering.

This one is a Dragon 1/144 scale artilleriewagen. Originally i was going to use it as a Squat land train. Far too big so i added wings and jets and turned it into a flyer. Not my greatest success but still i got the original kit quite cheap.
