Really nice job, the use of greens and cool blues with a hint of purple is particularly good. Eyes are great!

I loved those minis when I first saw them

Yours look boss! The purples, blues and greens are really amazing.

Quick question, how hard would it be for someone with no modeling skills to remove / leave off the proboscises?

If you can wait a couple months I think these guys are going to show up as plastics in the 'Bones' line, which would make them very easy to modify.

I can see these appearing in an EotD faction. Lovely paintjob. I rather like the lantern fish look. There would be loads of potential with plastics.

I've not seen illicium on Deep Ones before. Maybe because I've always been running away from them as fast as possible...

Incredible.

Aggro,

I think you glue them on to begin with so it's just a matter of leaving them off and filling the hole.

Yeah, I've heard nothing but good things about the "Bones" line. As opposed to "Fail Cast"   ;D

That's what I thought. I'm pretty sure filling in a hole is within the scope of my modeling skills.  :D
