Terror Grub and Giant Slugs Painted

I got this lot ages ago from Heresy Minatures, they had been sat wip for a very long time, I saw one that someone else painted a day or so ago on Twitter which prompted me to finish mine!

I actually painted the inside of the mouth before I attached the part with all the teeth. Its really hard to see inside to notice so it was mainly for my own feeling of satisfaction!

I really enjoyed painting the yellow pustules blending them into the green of the skin.

The bone spikes poking out of its body all over make me think that I might make it have some defensive rules when I use it in RPG's

I have 6 Giant Slugs 2 of each sculpt, here they are front and back. These guys painted up nice and easy.

I plan to use them as Millasaurs for Necromunda and as random monsters for Iron Kingdoms RPG

What do you think of these guys? 

If you want them now is a great time to pick them up as they are currently on sale, you can find them here

Necromunda Market Stalls 3

Its been a long time since I last worked on my Necromunda terrain! 

The market stalls I made over a year ago need finishing so I got working on them.

I cut out shapes for the canopies out of thin plasticard (from santa stop here signs, I picked them up in January for pennies)

Then I watered down some PVA glue and soaked some gauze, which I then placed over the plasticard.

This turned out to be a mistake, the glue kept dipping out of the gauze for the next hour or so.

For all the stalls after this one I soaked the gauze and hung it over the pot of glue for a while before putting them on the stalls.

I left them all for a day to dry.

Once they had dried I removed the canopies and painted them using spray paints.

Now I need to paint up the details within the stalls themselves

Heresy Miniatures Kickstarter models arrived!

About a year ago I backed Heresy Miniatures kickstarter, since then they slayed the Dragon that had caused the owner so much grief. If you have the time check out the blog post Andy wrote after casting the last dragon. Really puts it into perspective how much time and effort go into running a miniature making company.

Blog post here

This turned up in the post this morning! I really wasn't expecting to get these models yet and it was a real treat. I had a "no rush" attitude to the kickstarter. The models were great to get but I was happy to be a part of turning around the dragon saga (even if only in a small way)

The terror grub, this guy will be used as a large style bad guy in both Necromunda and Iron kingdoms games, The mouth part is the internal teeth there is a outer set that will be attached so I will paint this part first before gluing that on and painting the rest of the model.

The outer mouth part! 

These little guys are called Hellmites, They are a great addition to my collection of monsters. Apparently the old metal versions of these had separate legs, well I'm glad the new resin ones don't!

Lovely detail on these guys

This lot will be my Millasaurs in Necromunda games, a great stand in. The official old GW models are nice but trying to find them on ebay at a not insane price is impossible.  

Really impressed with this giant spider. It looks like it will be tricky to assemble (will be pinning it for certain) but should look ace once its done and stalking gangers across the underhive!

A group shot with my Ratskin scout for scale

Once I have given them all a wash to get rid of any mold release agent that might be hanging around I can get to painting them up!

Its come at a great time as I now have mdf sheets for making my own board... terrain making and fingers crossed playing Necromunda await!

Necromunda terrain and models

My hobby area is getting an overhaul soon I have some furniture coming in about a week so I had to get my old work table out before it turns up.


I got a request to do a group shot of all my terrain so far and figured I might as well use the table one last time to set up all that terrain. And while I was at it I put a bunch of my Necromunda minis on to make it a little more dramatic.

Anyway less words, more pictures!!!

Yeah I'm not getting involved...

Bridge over the Market

And I got some work done on the Skips/Dumpsters (depending on where you live) These are going to be scatter terrain.

Necromunda Connector Bridge

Couple of things before I get to the main point of the post.
This is my 100th post and the blogs 2nd birthday!! Thanks a lot to everyone who has read and commented on my blog. It really makes it worthwhile to me that people read and comment and enjoy the blog.

Anywho back to the post...

I got a Dremel for xmas so I figured I would use it in a project. (I had tested it out a while ago)

I wanted to build a walkway that was bigger than the others I had made before and a Connector bridge that would span larger distances and help to join buildings together.

My new toy! I used this to cut my old set of blinds into the needed lengths.

These are runners from a chest of draws I smashed up before I moved house. I figured they looked a bit like girders so I kept them

Popcake sticks from ebay only £1 much cheaper than buying plastic tubing from a hobby shop

Laser cut MDF girders from Wargames Tournaments their ebay shop can be found here 

They add a nice level of detail to the bridges.

Measured it all up leaving some walkway sticking out to lay on buildings

I glued the pipes into the draw runners and then then glued them to the lengths of blinds. (Using my beloved glue gun)

Glued the MDF girders on top to create railings for cover. 

 Heres a view of the underneath

 An example of it in use between two buildings

The Delaque ganger uses a juve as a human shield against the Ratling sniper.

Now to get started on the big connector bridge!

Really long lengths of blinds for this one.

Also will be using some of the few official bulkheads I have.

(These are super rare for me)

I used the Dremel to cut out a hole for the ladder in the middle support.

Glued it all together

Repeated the girder supports from the last walkway.

Added a damaged section of bridge.

A group of Delaque fight off a horde of Zombies.

And here are the two together connecting to a building.

I think they will work really well with my other walkways. If you are interested in seeing them they can be found here

Cheap walkways

Let me know in the comments below what you think of these!

I won't be added a base to the connector bridge so it can easily fit between buildings.

Thanks again for reading and commenting! Heres to a hundred more posts!
