I attacked a tyranid bio-titan with dental tools, files, and a stiff brush. I don't know if it's something about the formulation of mid-90s Citadel Color paints, or just the fact that said paints have been on the model since the mid-90s, but I'm having a heck of a time cleaning this thing. Doesn't help that it's a tyranid and I can't get a solid grip on it without being poked with some sort of godforsaken spine.

OMG! :o You're, like, the bravest guy I have ever met. I wouldn't go anywhere near a bio-Titan with anything less than a Plasma cannon and Terminator armour. Even then , I wouldn't fancy my chances. :D

Ahahaha. :|

Anyway. Recently I have been working on some industrial stuff. This is all wargame-model-mods stuff, which is basically pretty decent-ish. Not as flashy (or as painted :cry: ) as 4ground, but affordable and sturdy. Very serviceable, in my opinion. Anyway. Time for painting, which I hope to have done in time for the 27th. The unconstructed thing at the back right will be a set of 3 small silos, which are awaiting the actual silo bits. Said silos are currently full of Pringles, and must first be emptied...

Got a Digga-chick painted and am now fiddling around with the base. Pretty happy with how she turned out. Got another couple in the works. One is better than half way done, I've just been trying (and almost...almost....) succeeding in getting both halves of her face to match up. I think I'll call it good enough and just hope the warpaint distracts the viewer. Got a Stuntie with a big-old 6 shoota ready to paint too.

Very cool terrain there MIJ. I've got the notions for a terrain project myself. That laser cut stuff really does make a nice base to work from. Add some rivets and control panels, there is no limit to the cool detail you could stick on there.

Nuffink euphimistic about it, mate. Walrus. Big hairy, tusked mammal of the arctic seas. Slapped one. Can't say as he was all that fussed about it, truth be told, but it was a bit of a first for me, so I thought it bore mentioning.

Well, whilst I can't condone Walrus related violence, I guess it's ok. :lol:
