Another Inso thread brimming with cool ideas

That hover bike is great.

The plastic squat kit is a bit of a disaster when it comes to the arms. Most of the metal/platic body + plastic arms ranges from that era are a lot of work to get right. A scuplted arm approach like you are is the only real solution I think.

Cutting down the lasguns is a must too.

Im looking forward to seeing more.

Gotta agree!

The best use I have seen for those kind of bases yet!

I've only managed a small amount of progress this week... just the turbine on the bike:

The two robots are explained on my blog...

and if you are interested... here's how I see the hover bike working:

Squat servitors

One arm has to be a whole host of gubbins

I am hoping to find some suitably robotic arms... if anyone has any suggestions for robot/cybernetic/mechanical arms then please feel free to add your suggestions (preferably with a link) below

Squats are one if the most characterful armies out there. I'm glad to see someone resurrecting the wee guys!!

Why not Beetle Bot arms?

This thread keeps getting better and better!

As for robot arms, if you can't find something appropriate, you could always use some bass guitar strings to make the snake-like arms that so much classic 40k artwork has.

Inso · « **Reply #27 on:** September 14, 2014, 10:08:42 AM »

I decidied to go with the converted/beetlebot arms...

Awesome! Also, I quite like the female eldar/bug hybrid. Are they going to be for sale too?

Cheers.

I'm not sure if the miniature will be for sale... it depends on what Hasslefree Miniatures want to do with it
