Itsy Bitsy Spider.


Security Droids.

All with using cheap Ebay GW stuff or traded bits.

Though I'm desperately short of Space Marine Vehicle Missile Launcher or whatever it's called, I'm looking at finding another 4-6 of those launchers to complete the entire swarm. (So if U have any spare, or wish to sell, PLEASE!!)

Coincidentally, they make good 6mm sci fi craft too :)

The Spiders are easy, and not too expensive on Ebay, or just buy a Goblin Dwarf Pass something box from GW and sell off what U don't need. Just  repose em and that makes em look a lot better. IMHO ofcourse :)

Your spider idea is like all great ideas, brilliant, yet obvious once someone else has thought of it  :)

I'd seen those spider-riding goblin things many times before, but never thought to bin the rider & use the spider solo.

Maybe I'm just stoopid... :(

I also like the droids - simple yet very effective. I have some "Epic 40K" vehicles from 20 years or more ago which I thought might make good "low-tech" gun droids for 28mm. I've painted one up & it looks quite good sneaking around my jungle terrain. If I knew where I'd put it, I'd take a pic of it :(

This time it's not my original idea though.

A friend passed a link to me about a Tau drone on one of the Tau forums, and I PMed the maker of it. Sebastian made the first Al'Yon'Kor (Small Hunter Drone) and he sent me a lot of WIP's of it for me to work with.

So full credit goes to him :)
