About the Project

Another Hobby Challenge is here and what a good one it is. SPACE HULK!! so with only 6 weeks and not much money in my pocket I was strongly considering not having a go at this project but come on its space hulk I just cant so I want to make something simple. my plan at the start is to 3D print some corridors (I have been looking in to this as part of my AVP project)and have something in the dark that can only be patchily seen. I plan to use an air brush and washes to give the effect of lighting in the dark only showing part of the creature in the dark corridor. I may think about using real light sources as part of this but that is if I have time. at the moment my plan is to only use one to 3 minis. lets hope the project all goes well and in to the dark we go.

I wanted to glue the two corner parts together to make one solid part, this means it will look like a single part once filled with some green stuff.

Playing with positioning, Want to have its claws griping the door frame with its right claws and it left on the floor but its a bit of an ask so the left is not doing much.

Want the left talon to be out stretched looking like its piercing the floor and dragging back as the right talon is just high in the air.

I want to swap the talons from one side to the other as one is more withdrawn than the other and I need the left talon to be more out stretched.

I’ve decide I will pin all the part so I can play with all the limbs position especially as some of the arms I’m cutting at the elbows.
