fish in space lmfao i had to giggle at that one. im trying to do alien vs predator rather than just alien or just predator. ive got the foilage to put on yet as its hopefully going to be more a jungle scene rather than a space scene but as i do a bit ill post the pics. im hopeing to do a bit more this weekend if the weather holds out. but thanks for all the comments.
