90's Warhammer Cacti

   This is one of those posts where I have tried to keep to what I do best and that's not trying to be too clever. There is quite a lot of noise online at the moment of 30 odd year old hobbyists feeling nostalgic for a time when gaming was simpler, with at least a couple of guys in my local area painting 40k armies made of older models in an older paint style* - at least one is using a box of paints he bought online dating from 2rnd edition.

*Goblin Green bases and bright colours

   While I am nowhere near that nostalgic, the jungle scenery project I have found myself restarting has given me thoughts, one of which was to do a single base of the iconic foam ball cacti - but in a way they should fit into the rest of the collection.

   I appreciate that cacti famously don't grow in rainforests but in the deathworlds of the 41st millennium, who can prove me wrong? I kept to the now famous method of building them except they are covered in two layer of Modge Podge for added strength and final colours I went for aren't perfect matches - warboss green and flesh tearers red contrast. I also added a jungle base rather than a desert base so I could just do one test batch that I could add straight into a collection, rather than starting something big*.

*I am now very tempted to do a whole set in the future for my desert scenery
