Hopefully this is the last stretch as I add the last details to these three, although a bit overkill. There's the belt and even the servo on the rear with rods extending out to the legs... although I'm going to struggle to get this right as there are no plans yet to glue the two halves together until I start painting. I don't know why I'm doing the servo as the backpack will likely obsecure it from view. Oh... I forgot, I still got one backpack to go before I need to use greenstuff for the skulls mounted on top of each of these... maybe not quite the last stretch :(

Making slow progress despite having much more time on my hands. Not sure if it's the enthusiasm or difficulty of the pieces needed for the third Ghaz. This version will have a lot of curved pieces and judging by the comments I've seen against the 40K version I've based this on, it's not most liked. It's probably the least Ork like creation once I finished. Can you guess what it will look ike yet?
This wasn't on the plan for this year, but at least it's now completed. Another section of slate removed, roots cut up, new lining put down and sifting the dirt out of the slate before relaying it. I ended up clearing up the slate near the plants, but didn't have new lining to lay down. This will suffice for another 10 years. There is only one small corner to do where a lot of roots have grown through, but pretty sure that will be a job for next year... unless we get another heat wave.
section also got the pile of thin pieces. The remaining tray (bottom right) although tempting to keep, went into the bin. I just regret I didbn't start counting the pieces as I twezzered each piece at a time into its new location.
third seemed tedious. Even though I made my Tau Battlesuits in three's, I think there is too much detail in these. With more time on my hand and the weather looking good, it may be time to start the second part of shoveling slate after completing the first part back in June.
Sometimes it's worth planning ahead, but in the end it worked out just fine with none at all. For once I was patient to let the glue dry and bond so the arms on my firt Ghaz was firm. Trying to make a way to slot the upper body to the legs, I had to carve and remodel the bottom of the body and normally would probably break the arms off at least once or twice. However I wish I stuck the legs a little more out on the side of the claw. At least the first Ghaz fits together loosley enough to check everything works out and not too fiddly glueing together once it was painted. Knowing what to do however helped out on mounting the second one together without worry about the arms. With this one I did have to adjust one feet to angle it more out towards where he was looking at and also make him more stable. The backpack, once again lack of planning as it didn't fit either of them... and I still not worked out a good way to get the rods to bend.
a main account, but also two others (I don't know why myself). Path to Nowehere was not the type of game I enjoyed, but the story was quite intriguing. However I hit a wall and been just doing dailies for a long time in hope that I could just power through the next level, but unfortunately this game doesn't allow you to do that in a sense. Hence finally decided to delete it. So once I get well enough, I either have more time to do my models... or install new games!
