To resize pics in Photobucket, simply click the "edit" button (second from the left) over the picture in the Album. Then a new window opens and once again it's the second option from the left "resize". just chose the biggest option (website, email) and your pic will be resized enough to make the bearded midget happy

The new pics look much better, but there is still one thing I'd like you to keep in mind. It's on the ammount of greenstuff you're using.
Someone wise once said "make a blob just big enough for the work you are going to do, then take away half of it, then half again....and again. Now you have just a little too much" or something similar.
The tiny amount you should use for making things like those ropes are ....well very tiny. GS is almost impossible to get rid of once it is appied, especially since one tries to sculpt at the same time. When you press it somewhere it will bulge out elsewhere. It's far better to use too little and then add some than to use to much and try to take some away.
So...I'd like you to redo it again but this time use a very small amount of GS and have a piece of rope/wire (40K-scale) next to you while applying it.

I think if you cut the GS with the knifeblade going parallell to the sprue, doing this on both sides, whats left on top would be enough.

Sorry for being a pain and so hard to please
