Motivation and Crushing Claws


I did nothing for the month of May, like literally nothing. I felt depressed and far from motivated. I also struggled to find time to go the hobby shed.



However with this month I started to do stuff, I looked at all my half done projects the sinking feeling that my monthly RPG is not going be monthly and decided I need some focus. I have put this board together to help motivate me and to try focus the hobby butterfly so that my projects actually get done. 



I managed to get a few more of my Acolytes done and after fucking up one hip and trying to find a way to save the model it inspired me to do one squad leaping over and running past the bits of killa kann that my Patriarch is standing on. This means my Patriarch wont look so alone with his orkish base and will use some other left over ork bits on my display board to help bring it together.



I feel quite great about this particular acolyte showing off some actual mobility.



The next big problem for this is with these crushing claws. I got my Broodlord on a small base and he doesnt look too out of place but I am not sure how to pose these crushing claw arms or if I should even use them at all.

 



Honestly I hate the 6 arms of the genestealers cult and find it mentally hard to pose them in a way that doesnt just look stupid.

 

Anyway if you could please give me some feedback on the crushing claws it may actually hold some sway as I am so uncertain about them at the moment.
