What if you did something similar, but on individual sections? So like a bunch of little 'c's, you could them arrange in a lacework pattern? It could be layered on top of a solid background... Use some thin wire for larger struts... Like assembling Stained Glass.
delicious idea...this will be in the works tomorrow...i have to try that...this will get so much messy^^
Kindly moderate your temper Sirrah! This is a family show and there is no need for such an outburst!
lol^^ sir, it was all for the lil kids.... they needed some letters for their soup...(er...you brits and american do eat alphabet soup?)
all ideas in the same direction i guess...it is sometimes such a big help that i am such a messy one and cant part with even the tiniest bit i have cut already^^ so i still have the surplus holes and the discs as well...

Just had a thought, add a MG to the rear panel of the turret!

at shrike:
tank, as always, looks good.
thanks mate^^ but you aint seen nuffin`yet^^
at chibi...
wow just wow...that is a brilliant idea and i would give a pinky for playing on a board like that...i even would love to play without any dices and oponents^^ this would be a childhood reliving thing^^
the amount of detail is ...frightening...at first i had scale detection issues... then i realized that some minis i know of....by chance ...did you notice the mini mini zeppelin on the desk? what will they think of next???
well and i want to contribute something too after seeing this cool project provided by chibi´s link above...
new pics of the second turret installment...:
the gothic arches have been all made and glued to the turret hull...already a finer structure has developed...also i made some cressent shaped bitz and could thus create some sort of stained glass effect...will have to make a individual testing "window" arch to see how this might work out...
here are the pics for clarification:
note that on the second pic i show a sort of balcony sruface for the railings...should i complete this look?
first pic without brim...^^
second pic with brim:
enjoy^^, vik

Okay slight critique, the lines of the arch are very straight up and down, would it look better if they ran paralell with the edges of the plate? I really like what you have done with the serrated edge. Maybe start at the tip of the arch next time though to make the arch more prominent and also more symmetrical?
However yuo have had the balls to try it and it does look good. Looking forward to seeing more.

lol... again with the balls ^^
welllll, the critique is justifed, i only saw after completion that the arches are not really symetrically...i am a sinner when it comes to good craftmanswork...you have to look at the drillholes in the walls at my flat^^... unfortunatly as said the glue is set...so no more work to be done around to fix any of these ...
would it look better if they ran paralell with the edges of the plate
i think you are abng to right here, unfortunatly i never thought that way before... straight down lines was something that was as if the only way around to do...which i currently regret doing^^...how i hate that i always have to learn the hard way...
thanks for not beeing overly sweet with me dantay^^

Corking like it a lot. :thumbsup
All those little c's lol
Yes noticed the modelin a model! genius!
As for the asymmetry, at Lincoln Cathethdral they had to rebuild from the Lady Chapel in the quire down to the Norman West Front.
They missed and the longitudinal rib is not aligned with the top of the Norman arch!
So asymmetry is good for gothic!
