Dark age in a lightbulb
« on: 20 October 2014, 04:45:22 PM »
This is a little experiment based on the well known bottle ships. This time two dark age /viking wariors in a lightbulb. Makes no sense at all but was fun to do  :)

I'm not completely satisfied with the outcome. Maybe I will do other lightbulb themes using better tools to handle the parts inside the lightbulb.

And of course I will try to do a better paint job on the miniatures.

Plastic multipart miniatures are from Wargames Factory: http://www.miniaturicum.de/product_info.php?products_id=17529







Too old to Rock'n'Roll, too young to die, perfect for tabletop adventures;)

That's very funny! Great work, love it. Next time, you might put some Dark Elves in there… or light infantry. Ok, I'm stopping now.

So, how many Vikings does it take to screw in a light bulb?

I like it!

What about some Victorian steampunk types, using the filament as a Important Plot Device?

That's pretty clever.

Would love to see how you did it!
