They look groovy and cheaper than buying the pre-made Critical Mass Games version.

The wash made them too dark. I'm going to dry brush a little yellow-green on them tonight to brighten them up.

 I added some yellow around the top to brighten them up a bit. I like them a lot better now. |

Looking good,the yellow really makes them pop. I did something similar but i kept them straight and bunched together,more like flytrap plants.  I think I'll be trying my hand at some bendy ones like yours soon. |

Excellent I have some of those Haz-Mat suits and they don't look anywhere near as good as those with the cool yellow. Have you read the story in the Gruntz rules about Ducks? Worth a read  |

Those alien plants are great... I'll have to "procure" some straws today!

This is fantastic. Thank you for sharing this simple but effective way to make some awesome alien plants! I just had an idea for the straight ones. Maybe slightly melting a plastic fork tine and gluing it down in the "gullet" would make an interesting tongue or tentacle. Some hazardous alien vegetation to ruin a grunt'z (gruntz's?) day. Just a thought!

I had a similar ideat with my tentacled Blood spike cacti  Still have to think up some stats for them though. I guess we need a barracks plant builder now too ;D Might be fun to game something like this www.baenebooks.com/p-341-redliners.aspxIts about a unit of soldiers who have to protect a convoy of civilians on a planet where even the plant life is actively out to kill them. |
