A common survival instinct for many Scrunts is to poo poo their pants and then discard the excrement filled garment as a decoy, knowing that few, if any, creatures in the galaxy can tell the difference between a real Scrunt and a Scrunt-sized pile of poo poo in a pair of pants. I guess I'm informed now

so uh my friend showed me this http://imgur.com/a/t00KU  More experiments with plasticard. The ship was a little damaged so I decided I wanted to try something different. I need to go back and touch it up because I added the plasticard after the initial paint job. Over all I like how it turned out but wish I had dremelled the card a little bit better. In the future when I am messing with 40k stuff I will probably be using Solidworks to design and 3D fins and other things to add to my models.

I'm reminded of a story from the Reaper minis board. Dude there was talking about the time he was painting a model train caboose with an alcohol-based acrylic paint, and, as I recall, hit it with some weird sealer or other. About five minutes later, it burst into flames.

As I recall, when he looked back, one or both of them did have a warning label he hadn't paid nearly enough attention to before that. To be fair, this was written up as a warning to people to know everything about the materials they were working with, so he apparently learned his lesson. EDIT: I was a bit wrong. It was acetone-based paints over a Tamiya undercoat. JackMann fucked around with this message at 00:37 on Feb 20, 2017 |

I have some doubts about the position of its center of gravity though. Also hah, is that a batman logo on the leg or is that an actual 40k thing. Did you have a batmarine army?

A lot is said about the impracticability of space marine armor, but these helmets really take the space cake. How long does it take these guys until they can go through doors without banging their wings?

That's what I always imagined back when I played 40k.

I think that was a decent retcon since it also made the characters look a lot less silly in my head. If I recall correctly, there's a sequence where one of the Night Lords characters is pissed at how all the loyalists/guardsmen/whatever shooting at his squad seem to always single him out of the whole bunch - right before he realizes that oh, hey, actually, he's STILL wearing the stupidass ceremonial helmet with the two-foot-long bat wings on it.

Nice solid stance, good detail, as long as those claws don't get bent or something in shipment that's a good little robot.
