Workbench
My workbench isn't very large, however the small projects I started but never completed mounted up. My "to do" list also increased until there was just too many to track. Everything new I see on the internet, I wanted to make it. The contents of this page is old and I kept this to remind me that there are still a few ideas I would like to complete.
The Four Hosremen of Apoclaypse
29/7/2003 - This project is as old as the original web site. When I first began the chaos force, I also wanted to mount a
chaos champion on a horse. As there were four main chaos forces, it almost matched in with the four
Horseman of Apocalypse. Khorne being the obvious War, Nurgle could be Pestilence, leaving the other two
to compete for the role of Death and Famine.
That was the idea anyway, the Four Horsemen of Chaos. I began with this conversion of a chaos champion mounted on an Imperial Guard Horse, taking inspiration from one of the WD cover. This was dedicated to Nurgle as being the only one without a mounted troop. For Tzeentch, I removed the disc rider and placed a sorcerer on top. The next model would be Khorne's Juggernaut, but had difficulty here. And though this is where things died.

With the new release of Deamons and Chaos, a few new ideas have inspired me to consider picking this up again in 2008, but never progressed any further.
Future's Hope - A BFG project
26/11/2004 - This idea started after viewing all the different BFG projects and I wanted to create a super
battleship. Purchasing two Emperor Class Battleship for the conversions, I decided that I needed some
background and also a super space station to build this super battleship. So I purchased some
Orbital Platforms and a Ramilies Class Starfort.

Putting the Battleship on hold, I started work on the Super Space Station Command Centre. To continue with this, I needed the weapons from the battleship weapon sprue. Unfortunately when I finally got around to ordering this, GW no longer sold it separately, and though this project died a quiet death.
CD Diorama
9/9/2005 - This all started after the Wolves to the Slaughter project. Seeing the pile of junk CD's, I wondered how many Diorama's I could come up with by using these CDs. The Assassin's tower and Commander Dante's Blood Angels were two successful projects that used a CD as the base. But not all were successful.
Stomp Fest 2005 - Due to the amount of unused Stompas I had, I decided to use these for a Diorama. The first conversion of a Goff Stompa was complete and the second would be a Snakebite Clan Stompa. This project came to a halt here due to lack of ideas. The scene would be a Stompa from each clan, each distinct in its own way. Their objective is to stomp as many Gretchins as possible while a crew of Ork cameramen capturing the whole game on film. I later finished the Stompas in 2014, but not on a CD.
Cowboy and Indians - This didn't get any further than gathering the pieces. Due to the amount of different small Ork buggies I owned, they would form the Indians circling around some Imperial Guards. The Imperial Guards rough riders could also form the Calvary, although they would be mounted separate from the CD.

Army on Parade
1/8/2011 - I took the name from the GW competition. I have been planing to make a large scenery piece for all my armies to be displayed. The display base has changed numerous times. Originally the plan was to use the whole loft, then left over loft boards and finally cut up pieces of 50cm x 50cm dense polystyrene. The first completed Army on Parade was my Skull mountain version 2.0 with other odd scenery pieces I originally made for my Tyranids. I finally finished the Tyranids Parade in 2014 and now working on my Ork city.
Mountain Base
5/6/2007 - A guy's doll house. An inspiration from different sources including Space Hulk and other pieces that people have made. My intention to include numerous parts that could be dismantled and put together in various ways. Pieces I intend to do included; Titan Hanger bay, Missile Silos, Xenos experiment room and Power Station just to name a few ideas. This project stopped and started numerous time, but picked up in 2014 when the new Space Hulk Limited Edition Game was released. I created the Terminators and needed a Diorama for it, hence a couple of pieces were created after that. Once again on hold in 2015 due to a baby, picked up again and then fallen to the side line.
