Day early, but not a dollar short that's fer sure.....

Here's my WIP shots:















There are no WIP shots of the pianting because I didn't know what I was doing enough to stop and snap a photo. BUT it started with the grey base, I added a thinned coat of Reaper Pure white, Heavy black trim around the windows in Reaper Pure Black and very thin washed the entire thing in Reaper pure black. The window cracks and teethe were then added. Yes, I had to go back and re-wash the teeth. Stupid me.....


Steel wool for smoke. (Should there be any colour added to it? I rather think it looks fine without but should there be more smoke?) Base was Reaper Volcanic Brown washed with thin black around impact zone and Reaper tanned Leather everywhere else. then "ground underneath (where the bird scraped the ground) was done in Reaper Volcanic brown, un-thinned and un-washed. I was hoping for a fresh earth look.....

The list of "ingrediants":

Four McDonald's Milk Jug lids (as seen in the first photo)
Various PC tubing and rod
PC sheet
Widgets and gubbins scrounged from other toys (the fans and side intake vents)
A round section of the same brown pressboard Skalk used for base
Half cup Talus
PVA (1/4 cup) (took forever to dry)

Mix all ingrediants well, shake - don't stir. Pray, bake for thirty five minutes on 275 degrees farenheit. Serve warm with white wine.....



Fer funsies:

That's a great entry. Don't write yourself off so quickly. That's pretty awesome.

The last pic- is that scratchbuild or resin / plastic available for sale? If it's something I can buy I'm all over that.

Vik... That is an impossibly thin base you made there.

I'm in awe of the whole thing.

Just the thinness irks me for some unknown reason...

Thanks Vik! I have given that some thought. I could make some either seriously inneed of service vehicles, or if I made a Nurgle based chaos army, I now have inspiration from this piece to do so!
Oh the looks of the things are less important than the seals show that the mechincs and electronics work. so hence two for the control console, and one for the manual latch lever, guaranteed to work.

I did not make it in time I was trying honestly but trying to chase builders for quotes for my water damaged floor and kitchen dealing with the insurance company I had no chance of finishing in time

But just proof I was trying and was on track here is where I am

I will be finishing it in the near future, that I promise still needs a lot of detail added but you get the jist
