As mentioned in this thread, http://www.tacticalwargames.net/forums....4;st=45 my Bison has finally arrived in plastic form.

This first picture shows an Armageddon pattern Basilisk, zombie pylon, Skittle, Buddha, and the Bison.

Man, that is amazing. How you replicated a Skittle and got the painting just right to make it look sooo real, wow...

Oh, and your tank is top notch too.

The ridges are quite noticable in the closeups, just like in real life.

I'll reserve judgement on the whole exercise until after I mold, cast, and paint one.

The printer in this case is GrowIt, at http://www.growit3d.com/ for $56 (includes shipping). I suspect that I may have been able to cram more stuff into my print job for the same price.

You have Skittles in Scottland?

Oh, yeah. We are very civilised here we get all the American Imports... including the Credit Crunch.
However, you will never have heard of a sweet magic delight called Irn-Bru (a fizzy drink made from sugar and well more sugar really) best hangover cure and restorative ever made by man.

Seriously though THAT is some nice detail on your tank.

Excellent work Otterman!

Yeah, well, funny story there. The whole credit crunch is my fault, actually. I was walking through the Economy Master Control building a couple of months ago, and accidentally leaned on the big "Credit Crunch ON/OFF" button, and then walked out without telling anybody.


Whoo, that feels better. My conscience has really been bothering me about that lately. It feels good to tell someone.

Assuming they cast OK, place the order right here in the open. As the original sculptor I don't need to fear persecution. The only thing I'm directly copying is the name.

Hm, that's easy to take care of. What should we name it?

Does $3 sound fair?

$3 Catchy... but that's not a very inspiring name IMO.

Mmmmh. If women ever disappeared from the face of the earth I'd seriously consider having intimate relations with it...
