Nevermind the Russians, watch out for lightning!

It will have to go on a window ledge, it's too tall for any of my display shelves. 10" or 25cm tall if anyone else is considering it. You do have the option of making it with the antenna fully retracted, but that would defeat the point in my opinion.

Thank you. It needs the antenna up, as I said, it can be modelled in the down position but then it would look like a 251/3 with a strange tube mounted on it's side.

Wow that is awesome man! Very interesting yet very cool-Painting is superb
How did you get your static grass to look like that realistic looking? or is it a mat?

Suggestion - try putting a light wash on those awesome figures! it will bring out even more details and more pronounced :)

Hi mate, I would use a brown wash.
All my figures, i use Citadel's earth shade / wash. Makes a whole difference as you can see here...
