That marine is the shit DM! I can't wait to see that one finished off.

The dio is cool as well and will make for a very impressive piece. What exactly is that creature supposed to be?

Thanks wraith, i hoping to get the marine done in the next few months. as for the creatures, genetic experiment gone wrong? Am not really sure, i think i may try to sell it like that....

thanks for the encouragement guys, its appreciated

small update, iv wanted to include another element to the dio to use the train more so am testing out the leaping mawe idea. iv also order a mini that ill use for the 'leg bitten off guy', he'll be draggin himself up the stairs, with lots and lots blood...

Sculpted some hair on the mawe so it looks less like a willy with teeth and legs, will prob add more hair on the sides of the mane.

The hair to the beastie is a very good addition, lots more character now! And to be honest the original sculpt to me looks almost unfinished...

i SHOULD have said its the leading fashion of the sterotypical eastern european man, although having said that quite alot of ur footballers seems to have had accidents with hair clippers...

footballers' hair-dos are completely different story

about the hair comments (both about movies about eastern european haircuts and willies withj hair, teeth and arms/legs)

excellent scene, but the jumping mawe is mounted on an obvious pin. you should conceal it somehow. it's a shame to such a great diorama.

excellent story, good choice of models, nice scenery...

*waves* been a little while

update on the dio, finally got everythin neatened up and iv started painting it, iv used oils to weather the walls and iv started the graffiti, i want both walls pretty much covered in the stuff

the wraithlord blade and the emps child blade have both been airbrushed to a certain degree. i blocked off the colours with the lords sword, got a basic blend the fined tuned it with washes, so far the emps child blade is 100% airbrushed, its a GW wizards sword for size ref
