IHMN, Life On Mars - The Great Wurm





One of the more fearsome terrors for intrepid explorers crossing the Martian deserts are the Great Wurms that live in the soil.

This photographic plate was found still undeveloped in a calotypescope abandoned on the sand. It has been linked with the mysterious disappearance of the Fern-Whittington expedition.

And this is a Reaper Bones model. Reaper Bones is a range of polymer models based on Reaper's metal models. They are astonishing value for money and paint up well.

    1. Why thank you Dean. I don't think of myself as much of a painter. I usually do a quick job to get the minis on the table asap.

    1. You certainly wouldn't want to dig one up on the beach while making sandcastles.
