So, well, today I built some globy blobs!!!

 

Inspired by this post by doctor merkury I built upon the ideas presented and made use of some items not used by the original creator. For the most part I followed the good doctors instructions using decorative red gems as the core of the blob, but I mounted them on clear acrylic bases. 

Then I applied generous amounts of hot glue all over sometimes as blobs, sometimes as strings. But unlike the doctor (I believe) I used a silicon sheet for this process. This allowed me to go over the edges to create thin tails or pools of liquid blob. Then just like the doctor I applied red ink washes (a mix of  various manufactures) and some orange ink to the entire 'figure'. I seem to have gone darker and less translucent with these, that may be okay, time will tell.

They took practically no time to build and paint and I have plenty of spare red gems so I suppose I will try out some more colour combinations.

A while ago I started some troops in hazmat suits that oddly will fit right in fighting these things. I only got so far with them, but now with an invading horde of these I will have to find time to finish them off.
