Eclipse Posted September 13, 2016 Report Posted September 13, 2016 Great! I was actually thinking about this model the last two days Quote
Tawg Posted September 13, 2016 Report Posted September 13, 2016 I don't even need to click the link to know those legs sure look fun Quote

Sure they're a bit delicate but they're a thousand times easier to assemble than a a certain set of arachnids that shall remain nameless... Quote

I feel it would be considerably less worrisome to assemble than I am simply worried about accidentally breaking a leg while sniping them out of the sprue or removing flash. They just look rather fragile, and heavens know I have a few pieces from Malifaux I have broken on the premise of being fragile. I had to replace Yan Lo's whole staff with straight pinning wire, so that was fun Quote

decker_cky Posted September 13, 2016 Report Posted September 13, 2016 Looks great - better than I was expecting. Only thing is I keep looking at the picture and wondering "why replace its claws with needles?" 1 Quote

Only thing is I keep looking at the picture and wondering "why replace its claws with needles?" To hand out steroid injections? I mean, it's the work of mad scientists, how reasonable can they be besides "Let's do this to see if I can, it seems fun"? ... Actually, this describes my conversions pretty well. Quote
