If you look again. I didn't say you was hated for not gaming but for making beautiful models or conversions. Got to make sure the hatred is placed where it belongs.  :-)
Now get back to the 42.

So what your saying is that we can make beautiful things together?
Now that is just getting creepy.   :-*

Oh, so those flowers weren't from you then? :-(

Maybe they was from David. I am going his way next week so he can show me how to be a painter. :-)

Here is the squad of my converted Squats all together:



... and after a spot of luck on Ebay, I managed to get some proper plastic Squats (20 on the sprue!). Unfortunately, two of them didn't have heads so I needed to make them:



As you can see, there is a difference in size and proportion so I will be using the proper Squats as a heavy weapon platoon with self propelled, heavy weapons (with stowage space for equipment and personal weapons). I am thinking of using the little gun-drones from Anvil Industries:

... another diversion...

 :D

In another completely random change of direction... I decided to save a few pennies and make my own mobile weapon platforms. I found some Epic landraiders, some Imperial Guard heavy weapons and some plastic bricks and have got this far in the WIP:



I have another six to build but they are likely to be a mix of heavy bolters and missile launchers (or just heavy bolters)...

I have also started building the Warlord. This is a very early WIP:

Good job Bud, really enjoying how your using what you have to the full rather then just throwing cash (Like I do) at OOP figures.

Brilliant!

The use of those Land Raiders is a touch of genius.
