Tyranid Warriors on the prowl
Tyranid Warriors start to prowl forward.
From a recent game.
Companionship
Well the final episode saw what many saw as an end to Martha Jones (Freema Agyeman), with the character been written out of the series only to find out on Monday that she will be returning to some of the episodes in season four, but that she will also be starring in Torchwood with Captain Jack.
We then find out also on Monday that Kylie Minogue will be joining the good Doctor at Christmas on the Titanic for the festive special.
And today we find out that the Doctor’s new companion will be Catherine Tate reprising her role as Donna, the runaway bride from last year’s Christmas special!
To me it sounds like Martha was pushed to allow the Donna (Tate) character back in.
A bit of a companion frenzy if you ask me!
The ill-fitting top
These images show how ill-fitting the Repressor top superstructure was.
Spent quite a bit of time thinking about how to resolve this problem.
Decided to use a variety of processes in the end, filing, filling and filler.
Genestealers advancing…
Nasty critters advancing.
Genestealers from Simon’s collection.
TARDIS
The TARDIS at the entrance to Brighton Pier…
…well advertising it more, at the entrance…
Sisters of Battle Repressor – Storm Troopers Transport Storm Bolter Turret
The Storm Bolter Turret on my Sisters of Battle Repressor – Storm Troopers Transport went together very easily.
These are the resin and plastic components.
Here is the completed turret.
It fits nicely into the turret ring.

Tankbustaz
These are a group of Tankbustaz Boyz moving forward in column.
Though in this game there were no tanks, but there were lots of Tyranids!
The top don’t fit
The resin seems to have shrunk…
As I was building the Repressor I noticed that I had a problem. The new roof did not fit as expected, it was as though it had shrunk.
The arrow points to the parts not fitting together as they should.
This is of course always a concern with resin parts and to be honest I almost expect it with Forgeworld models, these are resin kits which require skill not mass produced plastic kits which any old fool can put together!
Now the issue was how was I going to rectify this?
