That is so awesome!!!!
Great minds must think alike to, I used a warrior bug foot on mine too, but miones mkore akin to one of those sharks from Half life then a brain bug :?
And that Mantis bugs on mean looking SOB!
 
but Im not quite digging the chariots.
Click to expand...

the goal was the cheapest brain bug available, hence the cheap chariot roaches. its for my little girls bug force and both my kids can be a bit rough on minis still so why buy an expensive mini for it only to get trashed.

AND

the brain and its chariot bugs are both metal i cant see placing one on the other since all i can foresee is scratched paint
 
MTM, as the chariots don't show that much, they work well in that role imho. Good scratch-build on the brain, and congrats on the mantis as it looks absolutely lethal.
 
nice job on the brains face and brain sucker' :lol:

:shock: -WOAH!!!! Mongoosepublishing shoulda made it look like that! (the mantis)

That ROCKS :twisted:
