Hi gang Just put up some pics of some new bug miniatures I've been sculpting. The scans aren't the best in the world but do show my initial attempt at legs instead of the slug propulsion system of the previous designs. www.germy.co.uk/1300sculpt.htm Any comments? Jeremey

They look a bit 'flat' but I'm guessing that's because they're scanned top down. As long as the legs can be separated from the body we should be able to cast 'em. > Germ wrote:

I agree. The legs as they are now definitely suggest a "trundle" as opposed to a buggy "skitter". > On Wed, 2002-03-06 at 11:49, KH.Ranitzsch@t-online.de wrote:

I like them as they are now -- after all, it needs sturdy legs if it's going to push!

I think both would find a use in a buggy army, thin and long for speed, shorter and stouter for power... Kind of the same way we use wheels and treads. --Flak > On Wed, 2002-03-06 at 13:13, Rick Rutherford wrote:
