I understand
THX

but the result justifies it in this case

I need to break my aquarium plants out of storage. Smashing good work.

[weismonsters]

A fine selection of colourful and potentially lethal plantlife.

I am impressed by the paintwork on the deathworld plants, especially considering the speed whith which you seem to be knocking them out.

I have been chipping away at this project since I put the jungle together in February and have manged three very D.I.Y. efforts to cover three more items on the ever expanding list of weird things.  Links to the associated blog posts are in the bold caps title for each entry.  The blog posts have more info and pictures if you are interested.

First its CARNIVOROUS SAND CLAMS.





A Rogue Trader staple, these are underground ambush predators.  Keeping things simple, I picked up some shells from a local beach, glued them to bases and gave them a very rudimentary paint job.  Its rough and ready (and more than a bit goofy), but its fits the theme.



-------------------------------------------------


Next some NECROMUNDAN SPINE CRYSTALS/KRYPTONITE/PERILIUM/WARPSTONE



These are real crystals that a guy I know bought somewhere ( I dont know where crystals are for sale, but they are apparently).  I glued them to bases and painted Tamiya Clear Green over them.  Again, very straightforward.



-------------------------------------------------


Lastly for now a piece of classic old goofy Rogue Trader nonsense, BOUNCERS









Ping pong balls, bases and that heat sensitive stuff for making patterns on kids t-shirts and...







More Fauna next time I think.  I got some new things for this project recently that I am dying to paint.

Comments and criticisms all welcome

More crazy, goofy RT-inspired weirdness.

Love 'em all!
 

[phreedh]

Ballsy! 

[KapitaenMors]

Wow, so much inspiration in this thread!
Love it! 
Can´t wait for the upcoming new fauna.

[cheetor]

Thanks for the feedback folks

A small but satisfying contribution today, the often referenced but rarely realised in miniature...

RIPPY-FISH



The models are Fish Swarms from CP Models and cute little things they are too.



The link to the summary of the ongoing project is HERE and the link to the post about the Rippy-fish is HERE.

Thanks for looking

[warburton]

Nice work. 

[commissarmoody]

Cool! 

[Dr.Falkenhayn]

cracking Stuff once again  one of my fave Threads on LAF 

[Malebolgia]

Ooooh! Those fish are cute (but probably as deadly as the piranhas from Piranha 3D).

[Suber]

You are managing this fauna project outstandingly well

[maxxon]

What a veritable treasure trove of fabulous stuff!

Hats off, splendid work...

(and I'm regretting I didn't get the Ice Wyrm with my BONES)

[Mason]

Brilliant!!
 

Again....

Thats it!
I am officially 'borrowing' all of these ideas for when I do my Pulp jungle terrain next year.
There you go, I have confessed....
