yay!....Grots back!

although i dont wargame and dont need to make stuff like this i do get inspiration from it in the form of thinking how to use stuff in alternative ways, and seeing how you use paint effects  :thumbsup:

Remember gentlemen, even those who do not play wargames and do not need terrain need to enter the terrain compometition, mostly because what you DO need is a shiny badge and a nice TFH custom mug to keep paint brushes in. Or tea if you want.

Also remember there's a reader's choice poll running. And you certainly need to vote on that one.

Well he WOULD kill (me) except that I talked him out of it by promising he can do the whole of the next ishoo in steam driven power armour. A sort of Grot O War if you will permit a little Khadoran humour.

That's right hippo fans; Ishoo Firty Free is now online for your amusement and amazement! Behold the awesome might of the Grot O War! Gasp at the death defying construction of the winch! Thrill to the application of reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeely thin plaster! Sing along with your favourite tunes during the toe-tapping finale.... er.... wait.... maybe not that last one.
TFH ISHOO FIRTY FREE!

Thanks to all those who voted in the poll - an unprecedented 33 votes were cast, and a solid victory went to 'Levetating Altars' so I'll be getting those done soonish, probably after I've painted some 15mm SF stuff up, and of course, finished the Greek Temple.
Keep an eye out for it Hippo Fans!
