Sometimes.....there is just no time!

Crazy past week or so for me. Real life took over and I haven't been able to spend much time at all painting or doing anything hobby related.

Over the next couple of weeks my production will be slow with an upcoming exam for school. So we will see what the future holds for what I need to have done.

Meantime, here is an Ironclad Dreadnought that I painted up a few years back, really fun to paint, but that was before I knew the glories of airbrushing. That green would have been much easier to paint!

The only update I have for the moment is for the Mars Attacks Robot. I used Mechanic Joe for this one as at Adepticon we will have 2 others piloted by Martians, so Earth needed its own!

Until next time!

Martian Spider & Handler Completed

Small update today, I finished up the Martian handler to go along with the Mutant Spider that I posted the other day.

The clear plastic bubble helmets, while awesome, are a pain to get to go on properly. You cant use super glue as it will possibly fog upon drying and ruin the clear effect.

Anyway here are some photos:

Mars Attacks.....Bugs can get HUGE!!

Mars Attacks is a great out of the box board/miniatures game. The most fun part about the line and game is the imagery that is pulled from the old Topps comic and trading cards.

We have all seen the fun yet horrible Mars Attacks movie with Jack Nicholson, but there is far more going on than just that.

Here is one of my favorite models from Mars Attacks: The Miniatures Games.

And these huge creepy crawlers are not left to their own devices in the game. They are guided by privileged, at least they think so, handlers. Here is the WIP of one of those handlers.

Until next time,
