Hello all, finally got my Lead Adventure account approved after years of lurking. Appropriately, my first post is finished lurkers and threshold agents for Strange Aeons.

Waiting on official figs after supporting the kickstarter, so made due with Reaper, Bones, and 'clix repaints. You can see a few shots here and more photos and commentary on the ol' hobby blog:

For shoddy photos and grandiloquent commentary on miniatures and toy soldiers, waste some time on:

Woah. Those are seriously nice!  :-* :-* :-*
Television is rather a frightening business. But I get all the relaxation I want from my collection of model soldiers. P. Cushing

Very nice!  What model did you use for the Deranged Lunatic?  I don't know the Heroclix line very well.

Thanks for the comments, ya'll. I'm glad someone could identify the 'clix - as most of them I bought and took off their clix base without looking at their name.

A cool selection of models and nice paintjobs. This should provide for a lot of different games! I see a Reaper Shoggotj there, I always wondered what that globe in the middle was supposed to be, looks like you made it into a giant eyeball  ;D

Thanks for the new compliments.

As for the shoggoth's weird eye - I kept wondering what the hell the giant ball was until it dawned on me that given those monsters are covered in eyes, it's probably just a really big weird eye. I kind of wished I'd painted it looking off in a direction, though I guess a distant, zoned out stare is appropriate too.

Lovely!

The paintwork on the Exorcist is sublime.

Those Reaper Worms have so many uses, a must for everyone who games any form of sci-fi, horror or fantasy.
