Dr. The Viking's current ramblings: Dark Side of The Moon page 35

[Dr. The Viking]

I'm actually in a complete western mood right now. Having just watched Fistful of Dollars with my two eldest boys. Wow they took it in like I don't know what. Everything was Baxters, Rojos and the Man with No Name the next two days. 
I think my father would been proud... he tried hard to get me into all that when I was a kid, but I didn't buy into it... not until now!

So, I don't have any cowboy miniatures and I don't even know what scale I want that show in - I'm thinking 17mm as that would be manageable... but we'll see.



In the absence of cowboys, I dug out some old GW chaos stuff and started fiddling with it:


This will be a Chaos Chariot.. Imagine armour plates, a long fecking spear that they wield together or something and then we're rolling.


And this will be a Tzeentch sorceror on a flaming lava turtle floating through the Never with a billowing trail of smoke behind it

Now that sheep is truly terrifying, "Behold mere mortals the lamb of doom!"

I can't help think that it reminds me of something


The only thing that I'd say about the sheep is how about some sort of saddle or howdah? (I love the idea btw)

Hehe. Black Sheep! Are we going to force Andym to make that for our game? 

Yes, reins, howdah and armour plates will all appear shortly. What got me going was of course the Admiral Benbow stuff again... so I'm off to find suitable materials for said additions to the sheep shortish.

I encourage those of you who haven't already to look up the song "Fenton, Death Sheep From Hell".

Ha! Will do...


I just though how easy it would be to make a Weresheep from an old GW beastman. Just cut the horns and add wool. Maybe give it a different body too.. but still.-

You MAD, crazy Viking, you!
Absolutely stark, raving lunacy!





I love it!

Oooh yes! That would be fun! I think that it must be done.

I just realised after reading ttgn that my ramshackle plants are perfect for retro sci fi gaming. Retro sci fi was the original topic of this thread! What a coincidence.

I tried to get a ficus benjamina vibe with the one in the lower right corner... still Work in Progress

[Dr. The Viking]

Citizens, are you not entertained!? :-D

[Andym]

You mad viking you!! (I think you might hear that phrase quite a bit!!) What ever your smoking over there, you need to give some to the rest of the world! It would be a happier place! Full of giant sheep and floating turtles, but a happier place!

[oldskoolrebel]

I like the armour plating on the Battle Sheep (TM). It looks as though you actually used metal... Dare I ask where you got it from?

And the plants; well they are nice, but it worries me slightly that they look as though they are straight out of a psychotropic nightmare!

I´d be very surprised if it did´t come from cans previously filled with intoxicating beverage inspiration in liquid form 

Dear Dr. The Viking,
never before has the danish people had such an excellent ambassador as thee. Even the great work of King Knud the Canute pales compared to the ingenious contraptions of thine. I am forever changed & eternally grateful! Keep up the spirit(s), please...
Yours truly,
Dr. Mr. Cigarface

I made this a few years ago, scale 1:1

Haha! I bow to your sense of strange!

You've bettered me by quite a margin.

Inspiring!
