Hit by £133.00 overdraft interest, which took my overdraft over the limit. I wish HSBC would list Overdraft Interest as a pending transaction the day before, so I have a chance to avoid the £20 charge! #miniatures

Fannying continued past the point of chicken failure

Incredible amount of fannying around to try to get a decent video. Even more fannying to crop it so that the loop isn't too jarring

It's actually not a total disaster, the chicken. The drumsticks were ruined but the rest of it is OK, bit dry maybe, but I had luckily turned it down to 190c instead of 200c (fan) for the last 45 minutes of regular time and i think that may have saved the day. fell to shreds putting it in the tub...

Swap the staff head for an axe head for a more violent look...

Lightbox still beating me. Tried a black background and pointing my overhead lamp, with filter

Slight pause in posting brought to you by my wife asking if the chicken was supposed to be still cooking. An hour and a half after the oven presumably beeped unheard. Crispy.

unwinged, not 'unhinged'

Andy Foster (Heresy Miniatures) @heresyminiatures.com · 1d

I think that the staff (not finished) and the double arm with the slender horns is my favourite combo for the unhinged Fallen One, with single claw arm a close second. Also a conversion idea.

Mucklegeet from @heresyminiatures.com - a giant with an axe in one hand and an unfortunate knight in the other.

Closeup of Mucklegeet's open mouth and the knight he's about to eat can just about be seen in his hand

Reminder of what the 'double'left arm (claw & eldritch blade) looks like (currently)

Andy Foster (Heresy Miniatures) @heresyminiatures.com · 2d

Wasn't time to take a pic earlier of the 'single' claw left arm and also the original right hand sword and pointing left arm. So this is them. Master casting buyers get all options

In his defence there was a 2 for 1 offer on that sword

Again, just liking it doesn't help me narrow down which sets are more popular. Leave a reply, please! Just the name of the horns will do (see alt text above) if you're shy.

Andy Foster (Heresy Miniatures) @heresyminiatures.com · 2d

These are the 5 horns sets so far (people who buy the Master Casting get all of these included) but no promises on slightly altering at least three of them. Which is your favourite? (see alt text) Have to narrow it down for the production version.

I took a LOT of photos earlier on and now I have to edit them all I guess? Someone should invent a computer system of some sort that could automate this process based on me telling it what I wanted it to do with some sort of suggestion box prompt.

I call these horns the 'Legend' Horns even though that's not strictly true, as they should be on the other way around and for some reason i ballsed that up. Maybe I might make a set the right way around but they really do look overbalanced and you feel bad for Tim Curry who had to sport them and suffered terrible neck problems. these days they do it with CGI you know.

These were the horns I originally intended to use but the convertor inside me (I think the millennials call it 'kitbashing' now, an old title given new lease of life, we just referred to it as converting in the GW of the 90s, mainly cos you didn't want to let on that there were other kits by other companies i suppose) wanted to try out different horns

This is the original horns but angled down for a more aggressive look. I feel i should bulk them up a bit. Probably won't.
