Fun with Pasta!
« on: 14 September 2011, 08:13:59 AM »
Just a silly little project and an excuse to do something miniatures related.



I made some alien plants out of Pasta for use in my games of Combat Zone  8)
Guide to how I made them can be found here

Yes they do! And simple enough thta even idiots myself could give it a go.

However, I fear that I'd eat it before I got round to making it into alien plants.

Have you contacted em4 to get them to add this to their site? I'm sure they'd love to have it as a tutorial.

Good point, I've spoken to Doug at EM4 previously about my Combat Zone stuff. I'll let him know about this.

Thanks for the comments guy's.

Great idea. I'm currently working on something with a ladder made of spaghetti. It's good material.

Great ideas.
Being married to an Italian, I have fun with pasta almost every night....it's called dinner.
Yearly painting challenges only show me how useless I am at painting...
