Those all turned out quite well! I especially like the Egyptian statues.

Thanks. My friend wants some for use with his Ancient armies, so it is a new
approach for me to have them 'painted'. I normally have them as ruined or
at least worn down a bit. A few more to do, so let's see what they come out like.

As a result of an other thread, I tracked down photographic proof
of a paint job from MANY years ago. Please take a look.

Some Sci-Fi scenery.
32,33,34,35 from a tape measure that broke at the school club.
'Can you fix it?' I was asked as I put it into my bag.
'No' I replied, 'But, I will make something out of it'

36,37,38 from various lids & the working parts from inside of a spray bottle

ubiquitous Banana stalk.

Good spot. Like sooooo many bits in my boxes they were too nice to chuck.
My problem is that I find it very easy to put 'Interesting' bits to one side,
but hard to find the time to make 'stuff'. :-I

I have gotten better in the last year.
My current moto is, 'Use it or lose it'
Which has greatly improved the situation. Now when I find things
I try to:-
 make something for myself. This takes some planning.
 make something to sell. This takes less time.
 pass it on to someone else to finish, or
 get rid of it (hardly ever use this option lol)

Having filled a box with Poppy seed-heads and the contents of
a to be thrown out small Pot Pouri (?) bowl, I decided to make some
alien marsh (gas filled?) plants. It also reduced my stack of junked
CDs. As I double up the CDs (to reduce flexing) this used up 16!
I hope you like them.
